A Michigan Registered Historic Site plaque reads:

VICKERS' MILL: In 1831, John Vickers built a brush dam over the eight-foot waterfall on Portage Creek and erected a log grist mill. The mill is believed to have been the first mill in Kalamazoo County. The dam created a pond that supplied water power to the mill and formed the sizeable Sunset Lake, around which pioneers built homes and set up businesses. Vickers died in 1842. On October 18, 1871, the village was incorporated as Brady, but one day later, a petition passed to rename it Vicksburg.

A small community of just over 3,000 people, Vicksburg experienced an economic downturn at the turn of the millennium when its paper mill closed after nearly a century of operation.

The Village of Vicksburg may be small, but it is a “Village with a Vision” that has turned the corner and is now making great strides to get back on track. New parks and recreational amenities have been established, a $90 million redevelopment project is underway at the mill, and lots of young families have moved into town.

In addition, the fun and festivities known as the ‘BURG Days of Summer have been rejuvenating downtown Vicksburg. This weekly event aims to “make the most of hot summer days in Vicksburg with downtown music and events every week,” including free live music, food and dessert trucks, and family-friendly activities.
