While Canton was first founded in 1805, it was first incorporated as a village in 1822 and did not become a city until 1838. Bezaleel Wells, the surveyor who divided the land, named it after Canton, China. The name was a memorial to a trader named John O'Donnell, whom Wells admired. Canton originally functioned as a prominent manufacturing center which expanded during the turn of the century due to industrialization and the addition of railroad lines. After the decline of heavy manufacturing, the city's industry diversified in the areas of:
-
Education
-
Finance
-
Retail
-
Service
-
Healthcare sectors
