History

James J. Hurley, an English immigrant, arrived in Flint penniless and worked his way up from a hotel porter to making a fortune from sawmills and soap. Remembering his early days of poverty when his wife struggled through a serious illness, Hurley donated $55,000 and land for a public hospital to the city of Flint. Hurley Hospital opened on December 19, 1908 as a 40-bed hospital.[3]
