About Granger, Ohio

Granger Township was organized in 1820 and named by popular vote for Gideon Granger, a Connecticut legislator who served as U.S. Postmaster General from 1801 to 1814 under Thomas Jefferson and James Madison (Wikipedia). It is the only Granger Township in Ohio, and Highland High School sits within it.

The township's farm history is still visible in its parks. Stan and Esther Allard donated their three-generation farm in 1992, and Stan Allard had planted more than 100,000 trees on its steep ground starting in the 1930s (Medina County Parks: Allardale). The Granger Wetlands site hosted horse races in the 1890s before it was drained into Granger Ditch for farming (Medina County Parks: Granger Wetlands).

Remsen Corners, in the township's north, is named for Remson, an early New York land speculator (Wikipedia: Remsen Corners). Carolyn Ludwig Mugrage Park, on Windfall Road, is another donated family farm.
