Wayne County was the sixth County in the Northwest Territory. It was formed on August 15, 1796, from parts of territorial Hamilton County and territorial Knox County. It was named after the U.S. general Mad Anthony Wayne. It covered the Lower Peninsula of Michigan and most of the Upper Peninsula. However, it also included smaller areas that now belong to northern Ohio, Indiana, or Illinois. On August 15, 1796, Winthrop, the Territorial Secretary, and Acting Governor declared that the boundaries of Wayne County began at the Cuyahoga River and continued west to Fort Wayne. Then, it went to the southernmost point on Lake Michigan. Next, it ran along the western shore north towards Lake Superior's territorial boundary. Finally, it returned to the starting point by following the territorial border through Lake Huron, Lake St. Clair, and Lake Erie. On November 1, 1798, the county was divided into four townships: Mackinaw, Hamtramck, and Sargent. Wayne county was at the time all of Michigan. It also included parts of Indiana, Ohio, and Wisconsin. The townships that were erected then were much larger than the current divisions.
