The organization of the township of Lincoln in 1828, was mainly due to the efforts of Collins Buck, Steiner and Shadrack Hubbell. The first election was held on the first Monday in April, 1828, at Hubbell's cabin. It resulted in the election of Edmund Buck as justice of the peace, and as there were but seventeen men to fill twenty-four positions each of the voters present was elected to one or more offices.
In 1818, Alexander Edgar came to Peru and put up a store and distillery. This was then the nearest store, and absorbed the greater part of the trade of Lincoln trade until the business at Chesterville and Cardington divided it. The nearness of these places of business and the lack of any good water power in the township had the effect of discouraging the undertaking of similar enterprises in Lincoln. A saw mill was built very early on Edmund Buck's place, near one of the branches of Alum creek, by Shadrack Hubbell. This afterwards passed into the hands of Mr. Buck, and later into the possession of Stephen Doty, Jr. In 1830, after Stephen Doty, Sr.. bought the Collins Buck place, his son, Geo. W., built a small saw mill on the stream as it passes through that property. A tannery was early established on the Pulton farm by Stephen Corwin, which supplied the neighborhood material for shore, clothing and harnesses. About 1850 Thomas Roby establish another tannery on the Ashbrook farm but it did not prove a permanent affair.
