Milford Township

Milford Township, one of thirteen townships in the county, is located in north-central Butler County, 俄亥俄州, 美国, between Oxford and Middletown. The township, which contains the village of Somerville, had a population of 3,550 at the 2010 census,[3] up from 3,254 in 2000. Excluding Somerville, 3,269 people live in the unincorporated part of the township.

It comprises one entire survey township in the Congress Lands and has an area of 37平方英里(96平方公里). The township was named by Robert Lytle, the township justice of the peace and county judge who was the great-grandfather of a famous Milford Township native, Governor Andrew L. Harris. Statewide, other Milford Townships are located in Defiance and Knox counties.

History

[编辑]

The seventh township in order of creation, it was erected from St. Clair Township by the Butler County Commissioners on December 2, 1805, with these boundaries:

Beginning at the southeast corner of the fifth township of the second range west of the Miami; thence north with the east boundary of the said second range to the north boundary of the county; thence west with the northern boundary line to the northwest corner of the county; thence south with the western boundary line of the county to the southwest corner of the fifth township in the first range; thence to the place of beginning.

This area was diminished to the present territory when the western half, another full survey township commonly known as the "college township", was separated from Milford Township by the Butler County Commissioners (James Blackburn, William Robison, and John Wingate) on August 5, 1811, to form Oxford Township.
