Do you know of Lenawee ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Lenawee. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Lenawee.<1>

Our sources for Lenawee (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Lenawee other than they indicate that Lenawee would be found somewhere in Lenawee County, Michigan.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1836 and closed  in 1838.
