Ashland County, like Douglas and Bayfield, has been a part of Michilimackinac, Chippewa, Crawford, St. Croix and La Pointe Counties, being set off from the latter March 27, 1860.
Ashland for several years was the county seat, until the waning population of the village caused the records to be removed to La Pointe, where the seat was located until 1873, when it was removed back to Ashland.
