History The township land was initially a part of Grand Blanc Township and then of Argentine Township until the spring of 1838 when it was separately organized. Clark Dibble, a pioneer from New York, was the first white settler to purchase land in the township, in March of 1834. Other settlers followed and in 1837, William M. Fenton and Robert LeRoy bought land, a sawmill and water rights from Dibble, who moved elsewhere. Fenton and LeRoy had the settlement, then known as Dibbleville, platted. According to local legend, Fenton and LeRoy decided who would name the town in a game of poker. The town would be named after the winner and the main street after the loser. Fenton won and the town was known as Fentonville. The town was incorporated as the Village of Fenton in 1863. The remaining township incorporated as a Charter Township in 1980.
