Their efforts led to the establishment of Walnut Run, which powered a gristmill and sawmill, attracting more settlers. The area underwent several name changes, reflecting its evolving community, and eventually became known as Cortland. Over the years, it developed into a thriving township with churches, businesses, and even a lake built during World War II, showcasing the hard work and dedication of its residents.
