SCHLESWIG
    Schleswig territory originally was a part of the Manitowoc Rapids township
from 1848 to 1849. Then it became a part of the Meeme township until 1855 when
the present town of Schleswig was organized and named Abel. It was not until a
year later that the township was officially named Schleswig. This change in
township name was petitioned for by 35 persons living in Abel and was granted by
the County Board on November 18, 1856. School districts number 1 and 2 were
organized while the township was designated Abel. The numbering of the school
districts was according to the establishment and official organization of each.
Kiel, which was originally Schleswig Jt. 4, became Kiel Jt. 1 and the new
Schleswig Jt. 4 set up in 1929.
