The story

from WikipediaRead it all ↗

Lordstown Township was one of the original survey townships of the Connecticut Western Reserve as Town 3, Range 4. It was named for Samuel P. Lord, who laid out the township. Except for a small section which was annexed to Warren Township, Lordstown Township nearly completely incorporated as the village of Lordstown in 1975.
