Saginaw County Michigan

Carrollton

Carrollton
A small village of Saginaw County, on the west side of the Saginaw River, one mile below the city of East Saginaw. It has six extensive salt manufactories, viz: Carrolton Mill Salt Co., Carrolton Salt Co., E. T. Throop, Potter & Prentice, Saginaw Valley Salt Co., and the Orange County Salt Manufacturing Co., besides several in process of erection and others located. It has, also, a large steam saw mill, owned by E. C. Litchfield, and capable of cutting 3,500,000 feet of lumber per season. An important town will undoubtedly spring up here in a few years. All the present improvements have been made since 1859. Population about 300. A small steamer plies to and from East Saginaw several times per day, fare 5 cents.
