Michigan: Hell

N 41° 48.967' W 89° 15.293'

Massachusetts may have Satan’s Kingdom, but Michigan cuts right to the chase with its town named Hell. The Livingston County community consisted of a sole grist mill and general store when a man named George Reeves settled there in 1838. While there are several legends about how it got its name, the official story is that Reeves was known to pay the local farmers in homemade whiskey, and that led to the farmer’s wives saying their husbands had “gone to Hell again” when they were nowhere to be seen during harvest time. Hell was officially incorporated in 1841 and still has its devilish name to this day.
