Lovely plains and beautiful fields greeted settlers eager to put
down roots in the area north of the growing city of Grand Rapids.
The northernmost point of the Grand River and its environs,
including the Rogue River joining the Grand nearby, offered folks
everything they needed: river and road travel, good farmland,
plenty of forestland, and enough space to grow and prosper. Soon
the area was known as Plainfield Township, with the bustling
Plainfield Village at its center. Small communities grew up around
the township, including Belmont and Comstock Park that exist today
but also Konkle Town and Childsdale, which do not. Plainfield
Village is gone as well, but the spirit of those early pioneers
lives on. Today Plainfield Township is a combination of city and
country, businesses and farms, and longtime residents and those
just discovering the beauty of this area that still boasts plains
and fields.
