From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is an unincorporated community named Brevort in adjacent Moran Township.

The township was named after Henry Brevort (or Brevoort), a surveyor assigned to subdivide the area in 1845.[3]Brevort Township is a civil township of Mackinac County in the U.S. state of Michigan. As of the 2000 census, the township population was 649. Most of the township land is within the eastern portion of the Hiawatha National Forest. The township includes part of the Mackinac Wilderness, a listed Wilderness Area.

Allenville, only evident by a small road side sign just south of the center of Moran, was a station on the Detroit, Mackinac and Marquette Railroad less than one mile southeast of Moran at 45°59′05″N84°49′14″W.[4] It was founded by J. Alley, head of the Alley Lumber Company in 1873. A post office operated from December 1873 until October 1891. Also known as “Alley Town”, the community was almost destroyed by fire in 1882.


  • Moran is an unincorporated community on M-123 at 45°59′39″N 84°49′51″W[5] approximately 13 miles northwest of St. Ignace. Confusingly, the community is not a part of Moran Township, which is adjacent to Brevort Township on the south and west. It was initially called “Jacob City”, after the president of the German Land Company of Detroit, which sold land to members in 1881-83. In 1883, Jacob was accused of fraud and ousted from the organization. Another member of the group, William B. Moran, loaned the group funds to buy additional land and the settlement was renamed after him in 1883. A post office named Jacob City was established in February 1882 and renamed Moran in January 1883. The office was transferred to and renamed Allenville in April 1898, but a Moran post office was re-established in May 1910. The name of Moran Township and other nearby places named Moran such as East Moran Bay in St. Ignace, West Moran Bay on Lake Michigan, and the Moran River all have a different origin, and instead derive from the French Morin.
