Midland is located in northeastern
Midland County. It was first settled by John A. Whitman, who began a
farm here in 1836. Located at the mouth of the Chippewa River which
enters into the Tittabawassee River, this city originally grew as a
strategic distribution point for floating wood during the late 1800�s
lumbering boom. Later, Herbert H. Dow started the Brine & Salt Works,
which later became Dow Chemical Company, currently the city�s largest
business.
