Macomb Township is a civil township of Macomb County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 91,663 at the 2020 census,[2] up from 79,580 in 2010. As of 2020 it was the most-populous civil township in the state and the third most-populous township overall after the charter townships of Clinton and Canton.[5]
History
The founders of Macomb Township arrived in the early 19th century in search of flat and fertile farmland, like that near the Clinton River. Many of these early settlers were of German descent, and the German influences remain today. The Township of Macomb was officially approved by the Legislative Council on March 7, 1834.[6]
The township was named in honor of General Alexander Macomb, who was a highly decorated veteran of the War of 1812; his successful mercantile family owned most of Macomb County at one time.
Macomb Township was a large part of the lumber and logging industry of southeast Michigan in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Logs would be transported south from Wolcott Mill in Ray Township, down the Middle Branch of the Clinton River to sawmills. Romeo Plank Road is a historic route that follows the river on its western side.
Macomb Township experienced significant growth during the period of 2000–2008, boasting a 48% increase in population.[7]
