Stonelick Township
Long ago, in the quiet hills of what is now Clermont County, Ohio, a stream called Stonelick Creek carved its path through the wilderness. In 1798, a brave settler named Henry Allison built a small log cabin on its banks, not knowing he was planting the seeds of a township.
Soon after, his brother, Dr. Richard Allison, arrived and built a mill to grind grain from the growing fields. The sound of rushing water and turning wheels became the heartbeat of the land. In 1812, the area was officially named Stonelick Township, after the creek that gave it life.
Farmers, coopers, and millers made their homes here. They built barrels, ground flour, and carved a community out of forest and field. The village of Boston rose in the heart of the township, with shops, churches, and schoolhouses. Life was simple, but strong.
Even as time passed and cities grew nearby, Stonelick held on to its roots. Covered bridges, family farms, and old oak trees still whisper the stories of the past. Today, it remains a peaceful place — where history lives quietly, wrapped in the rustling of leaves and the laughter of children.
