Biographical History
Augustus B. Woodward was the dominant figure in the government of Michigan Territory prior to 1812. Educated at Columbia University and Virginia, by 1797 he was buying property in Washington, D.C. Woodward came to Detroit shortly after the devastating fire of 1805 and was appointed chief of the Michigan Territory's first three judges. Finding the city in ruins, Woodward was able to persuade Governor William Hull to postpone rebuilding until a comprehensive plan could be drawn up. Based on his experience in Washington, he modeled a plan for the city. Woodward remained in Detroit until 1832 when he moved to Tallahassee, Florida, where he died in 1827.
Army officer and jurist.
