REFERENCE COUNTY CLERK

MONTEREY TOWNSHIP First settled in 1836; the township was organized in 1847
by State Legislature and included Salem and Overisel, the former of which was
organized as a separate township in 1855, and the latter attached to Fillmore, leaving
the township of Monterey as it now exists. The people of the township suggested to the
Legislature that it be christened Monterey in honor of the triumph of American arms in
Mexico under Generals Taylor and Worth, and the victory won on the field of Monterey.
