| | Welcome to Negaunee, Michigan! |
 | | It was first settled by the Jackson Iron Company (see Jackson, Michigan) in 1846. |
 | | The settlement was given a post office as Neganne on January 21, 1858, with Edward C. Hungerford as its first postmaster; the spelling was changed to Negaunee on February 11, 1858. |
 | | In 1865, J.P. Pendill and the Pioneer Company had two plats made, that of the former called Iron and of the latter Negaunee; on these two plats, together with some of the Jackson land, the present city stands. |
