History
Plymouth was surveyed in 1835 by United States General Land Office surveyors. The Mullet river was named after one of the surveyors. The first land sold to a private party was sold on August 13, 1836 to Englishman John Law, who had emigrated from London. The next sale was to Thomas Margrave, also from London. Settlers continued arriving, leading to the Town of Plymouth being organized on April 3, 1849. In the 1840s a group of migrants arrived from Tioga County, Pennsylvania. The Thorpe family arrived from Hartford, Connecticut. The town was named Plymouth, after Plymouth, Massachusetts, where the Pilgrims had landed in 1620.
Originally known by early Native Americans as Quit Qui Oc, or Crooked River, Plymouth was settled in 1845 by Isaac Thorp and others. It was incorporated in 1877. The city is nicknamed "Hub City", both for its central location within Sheboygan County and for its history of manufacturing hubs and spokes for wagons and bicycles.
