History of Lawrence Township

In the early 19th century, the area now known as Lawrence Township was a part of both Tuscarawas and Jackson Townships. Lawrence Township was laid out and platted by Commissioners on December 4, 1815.

The Township was named after Captain James Lawrence of the U.S. Navy in the War of 1812. Captain Lawrence was famous for his last words in the battle between the American frigate Chesapeake and the British Royal Navy frigate Shannon. Captain Lawrence, mortally wounded by small arms fire, ordered
"Don't give up the ship" as he was carried below. Those words later became the motto of the Township.

On July 4, 1825, ground was broken for construction of a three hundred and nine mile long canal connecting Lake Erie to the Ohio River. The Ohio and Erie Canal was completed in 1832, seven years after the ground breaking, and at a cost of 4.7 million dollars. The canal route passed through six miles of Lawrence Township.

Coal mining was an important industry for many years. A few gristmills existed along the Tuscarawas River, but the arrival of the Ohio and Erie Canal really was the start of roads and businesses in Lawrence Township and Stark County.

The Canal, which opened between Cleveland and Massillon in 1828, brought immediate prosperity to the Village of Canal Fulton and Lawrence Township. It was the first important commercial avenue in the state for the shipping of produce by water directly to New Orleans and New York City. The Census of 1840 reported that Stark County, as a direct result of the Canal, was being transformed into one of the nation's greatest
trade centers.
