History of Plymouth

The settlers found their way to Plymouth in 1825 and became a village in 1867. In 1932 Plymouth was incorporated as a city. George Starkweather, child born to the first settlers, saw the importance of adding a railroad to the community. The North village of Plymouth became the new center point of the town with a new road built through Mr. Starkweather’s property, allowing room for new stores to prosper. The new road set the stage for the railroad which was built in 1871 by the Pere Marquette Railroad. This railroad is the only railroad in the state of Michigan where the tracks go in all four directions, allowing import/export trade to come and go from all four locations. Before this railroad was built the only means of transportation was known as the “Plymouth Plank Road”, a toll road used from 1850-1872.  The planks were situated on the right side of the road for heavy wagons going to the market. Traveling back from the market the empty wagons were able to use the dirt side, where there was no charge for the trip home.
