lation had grown to 1,110, which certainly was not
a spectacular growth for a 20-year period. The
1900 to 1910 period saw an increase of only 43,
from 1,110 to 1,153. The following decade wit-
nessed an increase of 199 to 1,352 persons in 1920.
The 1920-30 decade witnessed the only popula-
tion decline which Stettin has ever experienced.
The count dropped from 1,352 in 1920 to 1,302 in
1930. However, the substantial increases in the
three decades since that time seem to indicate that
Stettin is heading for its most spectacular growth
in the near future.
Vote Against Lincoln
While no population figures were available for
1860, the year in which the township was formed,
reports indicate that a total of 56 ballots were cast
in the Town of Stettin in the presidential election
of that year. The surprising results show Abe
Lincoln absorbing a sound thrashing from his op-
ponent, Stephen A. Douglas, by a count of 54 to
2. In 1884, Stettin cast 153 ballots, 128 for Cleve-
land and 25 for Blaine.
Marathon County's total population in 1850,
the year in which the county was formed, totaled
489. And this included all of the area between
the county's present southern boundaries and Up-
per Michigan on the north.
Subsequent figures show 2,892 souls in the
county in 1860, 2,885 in 1870.
