Research note
What the surviving sources tell us.
The Historical Society worksheet identifies him as William Mansfield. The City’s online historical list identifies this mayor as E.E. Mansfield, while the 1918 and 1919 elected-officials plaques appear to read W.E. Mansfield. The 1919 plaque says Mansfield resigned Aug. 4 and John Hilton succeeded him. A World War I service record in the Barracks No. 142 record volume in the museum library names Mr. and Mrs. W.E. Mansfield of Marysville as the parents of Robert C. Mansfield, born in 1894 at Cassopolis, Michigan, which is consistent with the W.E. reading of the plaques.
