Gruett, Philip.
Phillip Gruett was an early Native American settler in Isabella County, arriving with his family as a child in the 1850s. He attended Lutheran schools in Michigan and Indiana and was fluent in English, German, and Ojibwe. Gruett made his living variously as a merchant, farmer, land dealer, and interpreter/consultant for the government Indian agency, sometimes also serving as an informal advocate for his Native American neighbors.
