Becker Township
Becker Centennial Document
Becker Township was organized January 21, 1871.  The two documents listed at the links were prepared by Township Residents.

Also available upon request, reports created by various school students:  Leverton Store History, Grocery Store History, Old Hardware Store, and the history of the old bank building.

Becker Township Hall maintains historic displays on the interior of the building.  If you wish to view, you may do so during business hours.  If you have more than four (4) in your group who wish to see the display, we would prefer you schedule an appointment.  If you notify us ahead of time, we can have the gazebo will be open as well.
