City DescriptionAllegan is a city in the U.S. state of Michigan. As of the 2000 census, the city population was 4,838. It is the county seat of Allegan County. The city lies within Allegan Township, but is administratively autonomous.
Allegan was named by Michigan historian Henry Rowe Schoolcraft in 1837 to sound like a Native American word. Land was purchased from government to form the downtown business district; village organization came in 1838 with city incorporation authorized in 1907.
Allegan is located in the south-central portion of the county. To the west and northwest is the Allegan State Game Area for which the city is considered a gateway. In all other directions Allegan is surrounded by farmland.
Allegan's dense forests and river geography served as a source of water power, trade routes for steamboats and timber production. Once cleared, Allegan became a center for business, industry and expansive farmland.
The men after whom Allegan's downtown streets were named - Elisha Ely, Samuel Hubbard, Charles Trowbridge, Pliny Cutler, and Edmund Monroe - patented land in the area in 1833. They considered the site a prime location for industry, due to its potential for water power (since it ... Read MoreCity Contained By:Timezones:- North American Eastern Time Zone

I am looking for Ice cream made with goats milk. We live in Shelbyville Michigan in Allegan county?
Question:
My daughter was recently told she has a food allergy to cows milk, and loves Ice cream. If any one knows where I could find some I would really appreciate it. Thanks to all
Answer:
Have you thought about giving her soy ice cream? I also have a daughter with food allergies. She loves the soy ice cream we buy.
Go to http://www.purelydecadent.com
They have excellent soy ice cream and you can even print coupons for their products. If you don't want the soy, they have just started making ice cream using coconut milk.
Also, if you own an ice cream maker, you can make your own soy ice cream. I will be adding more flavors of soy ice cream recipes to my ice cream website in the near future.
http://www.ice-cream-freaks.com
Good luck, I understand how challenging and frustrating it can be to find foods for those who have food allergies. I hope this helps in some small way.

Baker & Co. Furniture in Allegan, Michigan?
Question:
I brought an old buffet and kitchen and chairs at estate sale in Colorado 10 years ago. Just wondering if anyone knows how much they are worth...I am guessing they were made in late 40's or early 50's...
Answer:
Baker answers this on their web site....
"Can you please tell me about my vintage Baker piece, especially its current value?
We would be happy to review pictures of your piece for identification, approximate date of production, as well as any other distinguishing facts regarding your piece. For appraisal values, we suggest that you contact a reputable auction house or antique dealer in your area. If you would like further information please select Contact Us. This will allow you to send us further information about your request." Their address and phone are at this web address... http://www.kohlerinteriors.com/baker/1_9_2_0_contact_faq.jsp
I would look in your local phone book for an antiques dealer that specializes in furniture, they should be able to get you a value after Baker gives you the exact year and name of your piece.
Hope all this helps.

Michigan Courts (Family Law) Rights Violated?
Question:
Dealing with child support issues in MI.
My husband has a son.
The little guys mother submitted a request for additional child support last year. My husbands income was not reported correctly so he filed an appeal with the help of a lawyer. The lawyer filed the appeal in May. We recently received the courts decision. We don't agree with the amount of child care he is ordered to pay (The little guys mom is a liar and much more). The court papers stated that we had 7 days to appeal the decision. Called the lawyer every day and received no response from him. Other members of his office stated that he was not in the office and to leave a message. We left message after message and received no response. Wednesday was the deadline to file an appeal. With no response from the lawyer, my husband went to the court house and filed the appeal papers on his own (you don't need a lawyer for that).
A clerk stamped the paper work and accepted it. Another clerk that was nearby took the paper work and looked it over. She then stated that they would not accept my husbands appeal. Why? The clerk simply stated that they would not accept it (it was already stamped by a different clerk).
We received absolutely no help from the lawyer (he was paid for his services). I had no idea that a clerk had the right to deny paper work. We have tried to do right but the system seems to simply make up rules as they go.
My husband has always paid support and more. We like to spend time with the little guy but his mother is a crazy liar and wont allow my husband to see his son.
In Allegan County Michigan, fathers are treated like dirt.
I feel like my husbands rights were violated.
Are the actions of the lawyer and clerk legal?
Serious answers only, please.
If you don't have anything decent to say don't say anything at all. Thanks!
Answer:
The actions of the clerk are likely legal. There are requirements as to the contents of any appeal and really you need to be a lawyer or have lots of experience dealing with them to meet all the requirements. Without knowing more about why the clerk rejected it, it's really impossible to say.
The lawyer did not violate any laws per se, but you could likely sue him for malpractice. Failing to file a timely appeal is a serious breach of his contract with you and a serious breach of legal ethics. I would speak to his office about the situation - the office manager or head partner if there is one - and let them know that you're completely unhappy with your representation. If they do nothing to compensate you, contact another firm to look over possible malpractice claims.
