Yuma was founded as a logging town in the 1800s. Unlike many logging towns of the time, Yuma continued as a community thanks to the railroad, of which there was a rail station in Yuma. At one time Yuma boasted many businesses, including an ironworks. By the 1960s, the community lost its post office due to declining population. Today all that remains in Yuma are the Yuma Sand Pits, owned by Sargent Sand Co., the Yuma Bar, and the Yuma cemetery. *Sherman is a small unincorporated community at the northeast corner of the township on M-37. Sherman was at one time the county seat of Wexford County, with the highest population in the county, prior to the Sherman Fire, which caused the seat to be moved to Manton and eventually Cadillac. The community never recovered from both the fire and the loss of the Seat, and lost the majority of its population. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Springville Township, Michigan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
