From a Native American word meaning "man," either from the Delaware "leno or lenno" or the Shawnee "lenawai."Lenawee County was first settled by a group of 30 New Yorkers who founded the city of Tecumseh on the River Raisin in May 1824. Addison Comstock promoted the building of the 33 mile railroad between Toledo and Adrian that was finished in 1836. By 1850, Lenawee County was a leader both in population and agriculture in Michigan. Lenawee's population growth slowed in the late 1800's but its agriculture and diverse economy kept it strong.
