WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP.
WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP.
WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP is situated in the western portion of the county, and is bounded on the north by Adams and Jack- son, on the east by Noblesville, on the south by Clay and Del- aware townships, and on the west by Boone county, and con- tains an area of 56 square miles. It is watered by Eagle, Cold, and Finley Creeks. Westfield is its largest village, and contains a population of 600. Eagletown and Joliet are also thriving villages. The soil of the township is excellent, the country slightly undulating and finely timbered.
Among the first settlers we note the names of Charles Davis, Frank Stultz, Ephraim Stout and Joel Barker, and William Moon, who is the oldest settler in the township now living.
Some claim this as the banner township of the county. They have 1180 school children, and 20 school houses valued at $12,000.
