Holy Trinity Church and school.
As previously noted this is Holy Trinity Church at the corner of Alpine Church Road and Cordes Ave. in Alpine Township, MI. The church has purchased more land over the years but the original land for the church at this location was donated by Eberhardt Cordes, son of Anton/Anthony Cordes who originally owned the property. This church and school replaced the ones that were destroyed in the tornado that went through in 1965. My grandmother and her siblings went to the church and school in the early 1900s.
Something that hasn't changed in the photo is the barn you see in the top right corner of the photo. It's the same barn Anton Cordes built between 1842-1850. It's still standing and used. :)
