County Information
The county was created by Michigan Law on April 1, 1840, from land in Sanilac County and attached to Saginaw County for administrative purposes. The Michigan Legislature passed an act on March 2, 1850, that empowered the county residents to organize governmental functions.
At the Treaty of Saginaw of 1819, the native leader who represented the Cass River and the Tuscola area was Chief Otusson. Otusson's Reservation was located where today lies Frankenmuth, MI.
The County Seat is Caro.
The land around Caro particularly to the west, north, and northeast is widely farmed and cultivated. The township in which Caro lies was named "Indianfields" because it was a place of many early Native American gardens.
