Laingsburg

Laingsburg is in Shiawassee County, and in the Central Region. This community is located east of De Witt on Round Lake Road. Also located about 15 miles northeast of Lansing.

Laingsburg was named after Dr. Peter Laing who built a tavern here in 1836 and was one of the towns first settlers. In 1841, a post office was built here under the name Nebraska. The name went back to Lainsburg in 1860 when the Jackson, Lansing & Northern Railroad, (later the Michigan Central), came through the area. The town of Laingsburg officially incorporated as a village in 1871.

Today, Laingsburg is supported by a growing local business base and resident commuters who work in Lansing.
