History

In July 1817, Benedict returned to Norwalk with his family and established a homestead. Platt Benedict, the founder of Norwalk and its first mayor, died in 1866 at the age of 91. On May 30, 1800, the United States ceded the land titles to the "fire sufferers" and the representatives of the Western Reserve transferred the political jurisdiction to the general government. The Indian title was extinguished by treaty on July 4, 1805, on payment of $18,916.67; and in 1806, thirteen men arrived to make the first survey of the Firelands.
