== History ==
Around 1812, Jean Baptiste Recollect and Pierre Constant set up trading posts in the area. By the Treaty of Washington (1836), Native Americans ceded parts of Michigan, including future Muskegon County, to the United States. This opened up the area to greater settlement by European Americans, who developed farms.〔Hoogterp, Edward (2006). (''West Michigan Almanac'' ), p. 105. The University of Michigan Press.〕
Muskegon County was organized in 1859. Its name is from the Muskegon River, which runs through it and empties into Muskegon Lake and subsequently flows into Lake Michigan. The word "Muskegon" comes from the Ojibwa/Chippewa word ''mashkig,'' meaning "marsh" or "swamp".〔〔(Michigan History, Arts and Libraries on sources of County names. )〕 ''See'' List of Michigan county name etymologies.
