The founders of Pentwater were E. R. Cobb and Andrew Rector. In 1853 they built two buildings - a boarding house near the current water tower and a lumber mill, both on the south end of Hancock St.
First Newspaper April 20, 1861. By this time there were three stores, two steam saw mills, one printing press, several fisheries, two lawyers, one pastor, and 300 residents. Pentwater was still the only village in Oceana County.
March 16, 1867 Pentwater became incorporated, but the area west of Hancock Street was still called Middlesex for a long time.
Eldred's Shingle Mill was the largest mill in the State of Michigan, and some say in the whole Country. It was located on the South side of Pentwater Lake. It burned on May 6, 1872, and was never rebuilt.
In December,1871, the first telegraph message was transmitted to and received from Manistee, Michigan.
