From Scattered 1820s Farms to a Charter Township
George W. Noyes made the first federal land purchase in the area in 1824; the township organized a decade later as 'Pitt Township' in 1834, was renamed Pittsfield in 1839, and became a charter township in 1972 after a resident vote -- it's now Washtenaw County's third-largest municipality.
