Description:Located between Monroe and Detroit in Michigan, Flat Rock's history begins with the Wyandot, Huron, and Seneca Indians who once hunted and fished along the Huron River. Founded in 1823 by Michael Vreelandt, the area started to grow and prosper when settlers discovered the fertile lands and waterpower of the Huron River.

The largest number of volunteers came from Michigan, and that state suffered the largest number of wounded at the Battle of Gettysburg.
