A little city in Michigan's Upper Peninsula is celebrating its 100th birthday and a history worthy of a "Jeopardy!" championship.
Kingsford is located 98 miles north of Green Bay, Wisconsin, and 80 miles south of Lake Superior.
Years ago, industrialist Henry Ford headed north looking for forest land that would provide wood for Model T body parts.
