History of the Lake Huron Shore
H. R. Page & Co., - 1883

        [268]

                           CURTIS TOWNSHIP
                           ---------------

        At a meeting of the board of supervisors, held in January, 1881,
     it was ordered that all of Township 25 north, of Range 5 east, and all
     of Township 25 north, of Range 6 east, be erected into a new township,
     to be called and known by the name of Curtis. The first township meet-
     ing was held the first Monday in April, 1881.
        The first settler in the township was MR. E. D. CURTIS, after whom
     the township was named. This territory was largely covered with pine,
     which has been cut off. The soil is principally clay loam, and is
     especially adapted to the raising of hay and grain; potatoes are also
     grown very successfully. There are about ten farms in the township. A
     schoolhouse was built in 1882, on Section 19.
