Beaver Creek settlement (Ohio)
The Beaver Creek settlement, or "Beaver Creek colony", was established in the year 1810, when a group of families from the area of Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, relocated to central northern Ohio. These families established a small community in the northernmost vicinity of Beaver Creek where they also built a grist-mill and a saw-mill. A few decades later, many German immigrants arrived to the same area, and also built a German Church northerly of the mills During the 20th-century, this Beaver Creek Settlement area was entirely absorbed into the City of Lorain and also partly within the village of Amherst, Ohio.
