History

Honey Creek was organized in 1841 as a township in the northeastern corner of neighboring Clinton County. The township's early population tended to be politically Republican, so the Republican party in Howard County and the Democrats in Clinton County collaborated to have Honey Creek Township removed from Clinton and added in 1850 to Howard.[3]

gollark: Why would you want to?!
gollark: I guess you probably *can*, but perhaps shouldn't.
gollark: Okay, stackoverflow says they can, no idea about whether they can in different applications.
