 | | One of the oldest men in the county, William Todd, who is ninety-seven years of age, does all the work on a farm of thirty acres of land and bids fair for a number of years yet. |
 | | The township of Macomb, comprising Town 3 north, Ranges 13 and 14 west, was erected under authority of the Legislative Council, approved March 7, 1834, and the first meeting ordered to be held at the house of Daniel Shattuck. |
 | | This spot was one of the most eligible in the county, being centrally located on the Middle Branch of the Clinton River, nine and a half miles north of Mt. Clemens, on the railway, same distance from Utica, on the D. and B.C.R.R., both used as shipping points, and thirty from Detroit. |
