About

Clio was named after the Greek Goddess, muse of history and poetry and daughter of Zeus. On March 13, 1873, by Senate Bill No.234, the Village of Clio" was "incorporated". But the beginnings of Clio as a settlement came much earlier.  Theodore P. Dean began the first improvement upon the village site in 1837 when he erected a saw mill south of where the old swimming pool stood on North Mill Street; This sawmill and a few shacks were all that stood among the tall trees until around 1855.
