Pioneer History of

Eaton County, MI

1833-1866

Or The Story of

The last to live the simple life, toiling, spinning, weaving,

Cooking 'round the open fire; with axe and gun retrieving

Nature's products from the soil, the wild-wood half concealing;

Swinging cradles night and day, such human love revealing;

Those "early leaders opening up the way" for coming neighbors,

Who gave for us, their coming sons, their lives, their loves,

their labors.

Ingham County was established by an act of the Michigan Territorial Legislature on October 29, 1829, from portions of Shiawassee County, Washtenaw County and unorganized territory. It was attached for administrative purposes to Washtenaw County until 1838 when county government was established for Ingham.

The county is named for Samuel D. Ingham, the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury under President Andrew Jackson, making Ingham one of the so-called Cabinet counties.

Eaton County was formed in 1837 from open territory. It was named after John H. Eaton, an

American Secretary of War. The county is another of the so-called Cabinet

counties.
