Welcome to the Howell Area Historical Society (HAHS). Founded in 1968, we are a non-profit organization (IRS 501c3) whose mission is bring together those in the community interested in the rich history of the Howell area.
Howell was first settled in 1834 by settlers from Detroit and incorporated in 1863. The village was laid out by Flavius J.B. Crane and Edward Brooks in July 1835, and was named Howell in honor of Thomas Howell, a friend of Crane's and son of a prominent judge of Candaequa, New York. The name did not come into immediate use, however, as it was called Livingston Centre for some time. Howell is the county seat of Livingston County, Michigan.
The HAHS officers for 2011-2014 are:
Duane Brown - President
David Nagel - Vice President
Joyce Fisher - Secretary
Bruce Powelson- Treasurer
Board of Trustees
Esther Brown - term expires 2014
