地理 编辑

Most of what was once Mifflin Township has since been annexed by the cities of Gahanna in the east and Columbus, the county seat of Franklin County, in the north, west, and south. The several small "islands" that remain are all surrounded by Columbus, except for the largest and most southerly, which borders Gahanna to the east.

Name and history 编辑

Statewide, other Mifflin Townships are located in Ashland, Pike, Richland, and Wyandot counties.

The township was officially established in 1811, being separated from Liberty Township.[5] Mifflin Township was named for Mifflin County, Pennsylvania, the former home of one of its early settlers.[6]
