The Cooperville Observer; Friday August 21, 1931; Page 3.
A Brief History of the Village, Its Churches, School and People. Written by Harry and Some of the Observer Staff. One of a Series of Stories to Appear in This Paper.
Excerpt - "Earl Baldus, who conducts a general merchandise store in the village was born in Polkton township and came to Nunica about seventeen years ago. He formerly was in charge of a creamery for Hinken & Zylstra and after leaving that occupation bought interests of Parkhurst Bros. in the store which he now occupies.
Mr. Baldus carries a very complete line of groceries, dry goods, shoes and fresh meats and enjoys the patronage of customers covering a wide range of territory. He is assisted in the store by his brother Howard.
The building which houses the mercantile establishment of Mr. Baldus was erected by J. B. Perham more than fifty years ago and has been used continuously since then in the conduct of this business."
More information was also given by Lynda King and it is greatly appreciated.
From Earl's Obituary we learn that he was a lifelong resident of Nuncia, that he ran his business "Baldus Grocery Store" for more than 50 years and was also a charter member of the Spoonville Gun Club.
Earl and Laura Anna Easterly married July 3, 1916 in Grand Haven, Ottawa County, Michigan. The photo of Earl & Laura was most likely taken for their 50th Wedding Anniversary, which would have been in 1966.
