==History==
Caseville was settled by European Americans beginning with settler Reuben Dodge in 1836. They first called it Pigeon River Settlement, as it developed at the mouth of the river of that name, which leads to Saginaw Bay. Later it was known as Port Elizabeth and Elizabethtown.〔Walter Romig, ''Michigan Place Names'', p. 102〕 The town developed through lumbering, with timber shipped via the lake to markets. Ship building and salt manufacturing were also early industries.
