Collection Organization

The Bay Port Fish Company collection spans the years of 1894 to 1970 with the bulk of the material falling within the correspondence and financial document record groups. The collection consists of correspondence, individual files, annual corporation reports, an appraisal, land contracts, deeds and abstracts, ledgers, journals, balance sheets, time books and payroll sheets, income tax returns, and financial records. It is unfortunate that there is no major correspondence prior to 1936 to complement the financial records dating from 1900. The entire collection has research value for studies of Great Lakes Fishing during the first half of the twentieth century because it spans two world wars, the Depression, and later documents the decline of commercial fishing on Lake Huron and in Saginaw Bay after World War II.

The correspondence includes files from the Bay Port Fish Company, 1932 to 1970, and it's two major subsidiaries, the Saginaw Bay Fish Company, 1933 to 1951, and the Lake Huron Fish Company, 1933 to 1944. The volume of the Bay Port Fish Company's correspondence is approximately twenty times greater than the volume of the two subsidiaries. Most of the correspondence is related to general business activities such as communication with equipment suppliers, fish wholesalers, and transportation companies. The correspondence of the 1930s indicate more problems of debt collection than in late years, and the company was involved in bankruptcy suits to collect some of the debts. Business review letters sent to the company's officers over the years provide a narrative of the company's business health and its steady decline afeter World War II. The Bay Port Fish Company also corresponded with Congressmen and government agencies concerning legislation and regulation affecting commercial fishing on Lake Huron. It may have bee the result of diminishing business activity and increased telephone communication that the volume of correspondence gradually diminishes after the late 1950's.

The collection contains few reports, but the Michigan Annual Corporation Report, 1910 to 1954, and a 1920 appraisal provide historical information concerning the Bay Port Fish Company. The annual reports contain information concerning the basic organization of th company covering a forty-four year period with such information as names of board members, company officers, and the amount of stock issued. Although the 1920 property appraisal covers only one year in the company's history, its detail is quite impressive. All of the company's properties are listed, described, and evaluated including land, equipment, fishing boats, buildings, and building contents.

Although the financial records are not complete for any one series, a combined use of ledgers, journals, balance sheets, and tax returns provide a good picture of the financial fluctuations, growth, and decline of the Bay Port Fish Company and its subsidiaries. The ledgers and journals for the Bay Port Fish Company include the period 1903 to 1923 (Ledger Volume A, 1905 to 1908 is missing), but these records are supplemented by monthly balance sheets and year-end closing statements, January 1919 through June 1949. The financial history of the company can be determined further through the use of federal income tax returns, 1949 to 1966, and the Business Activities Tax-Annual Returns, 1953 to 1967. Similar comparisons can be made with the financial records of the Lake Huron Fish Company with combined records covering the period 1923 to 1954, and the Saginaw Bay Fish Company records covering the period 1918 to 1949, Another subsidiary company enters the picture with the ledgers, journals, and the trial balances of the Port Austin Fish Company including the years 1921 to 1928. Records for this company were not found in any other record group in the collection.

The financial records also include a nearly complete set of time books and payroll sheets including the years 1900 to 1970. They provide basic data with employees names, ours worked, and amounts paid. These records would be helpful in labor history research during the first half of the twentieth century. The time books cover the period 1900 to 1948, the payroll sheets date from March 31, 1920, to October 1970. The payroll sheets after 1950 provide less information than the previous years. Time books for March 1933 to June 1934, and 1935 are missing. There also three time books from the Heisterman Island Fish Company, December 1903 to August 1915. Papers for this subsidiary company were not found in any other record group in the collection.
