Wolverine, MI

Wolverine is a village in Cheboygan County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The 2020 census counted 309 residents. The village is mostly located within Nunda Township with a small portion extending west into Wilmot Township. The area was originally settled by Jacob Shook and his family as early as 1874. That mix gives Wolverine a clear local shape within Michigan, with older layers still visible in current places. The local scoop is a place whose streets, landmarks, and institutions keep its earlier story close to the present. The community was named "Torrey" when George Richards settled in the area soon after. The Wolverine post office serves a much larger area that includes most of Nunda Township and Wilmot Township, as well as smaller portions of Ellis Township and Mentor Township.
