Named for an early landowner,[4] it is the only Williamsfield Township statewide.[5]
When whites first arrived in what is now Williamsfield Township, the land was inhabited by a small number of Delaware Indians. The first white man to settle in the township was Charles Case, who came from Connecticut in 1804.[4]
Williamsfield Township was organized in 1826. In 1833, the township contained two stores, three saw mills, and a fulling mill.[6]
