Welcome to Stambaugh Township!
Stambaugh Township was formed in 1886, originally part of Iron River Township. The first Township Supervisor was W.T. Carpenter. The Township seat and most of the original population was located in the former Stambaugh City location. In the years to follow, this property was assumed and annexed by Stambaugh City. Roads were built to the outlying districts and homesteads where logging and farming were present. Many of the districts have kept their names through the years. The Baumgartner District, Saunders, Pentoga and South Brule are still used. Many families still occupy the same properties. At one time, there were more than eight schools in the township. Stambaugh Township is full of history and colorful people.
