Dennis Sullivan’s life has many chapters.  He grows up on a farm on the shore of Lake Huron.  When he turns twenty-five, he immigrates to the U.S. in search of opportunity.  He works perhaps a few odd jobs in the mining towns of Colorado before settling on the occupation of saloonkeeper.  He is always described as friendly, good-natured and easy to talk to and he builds a wide network of business partners that are critical to his successes and failures.

Throughout his life Dennis has challenges – and even defeats – but he continues.  He finds opportunities, he makes opportunities and he thrives.

This collection of documents tells the story of Dennis F. Sullivan.
