Romeo Michigan

Romeo was originally known as Indian Village, dating back to a time when it served as a winter campground for a band of Chippewa Indians. Asahel Bailey was one of the first settlers, arriving in Romeo in 1822, and soon, others followed. The Village of Romeo was platted and named in 1830 and incorporated in 1838. Over the course of the next several decades, more families arrived, homes and businesses were established, and the village began to take shape. This book tells the story of Romeo’s evolution from a humble pioneer settlement to a modern community which now welcomes 250,000 visitors to its spectacular Peach Festival each year.McLaughlin, David is the author of 'Romeo Michigan', published 2004 under ISBN 9780738532981 and ISBN 0738532983.
