Mellen Township is a civil township of Menominee County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 1,260 at the 2000 census. It is named after pioneer settler Mellen Smith (1829–1905), who served as the first postmaster at Wallace.〔Romig, Walter. 1986. ''Michigan Place Names''. Detroit: Wayne State University Press, p. 580.〕 ==Communities== Wallace is an unincorporated community located 15 miles north of Menominee on US Highway 41. It is a small village with the DeYoung Zoo, a used-car dealership, a tavern, lumber yard, post office, ice maker, wood businesses, grocery market, service station, and a liquidator store. There are also three churches: Country Bible Church (non-denominational), a Covenant Church, and a Lutheran Church. The Mellen Elementary School is also located in Wallace. Wallace was originally called Wallace's Siding after Wallace Sutherland, who was assigned to the railroad depot. It was then shorted to Wallace by the time the post office was established in 1877.〔
