Named in the 1896 county history

The history of Huron County was published 25 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

In 1833 the first post office was established in Hartland, with Daniel Miner as postmaster, who kept the office in his house, on the ridge, for a period of twentyone years.

Read the chapter on Hartland Township.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Huron County, Ohio, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
