Frank The Chief Corrigan moved from the lumber camps of Quebec to Michigan in 1923, lured by the dream of earning $5 a day. In Dearborn, MI he joined the Ford Motor Company where he worked at the Ford farms. Sometimes he even chauffeured Henry Ford himself. The Chief was ambitious so when he wasn t working at Ford, he ran his own ice delivery service. Yes, back before refrigeration was commonplace people relied upon the delivery of blocks of ice for their refrigeration needs. When The Great Depression hit, many folks were economically strapped and forced to move from their homes. The Chief made the most of the opportunity, and in 1929 switched from hauling ice with his trucks to helping people move. This led The Chief into the moving industry, and with that Corrigan Moving was born.
