Somerton
Somerton was originally called Smithfield, a village in Moreland Township. Somerton was named for Jacob Sommer, whose family lived in the area for four generations. The Somerton name appeared as the name of the local post office in 1830, though some maps in the 1840s continued to show the place name as "Smithfield or Somerton". By the 1850s, maps showed the area solely as Somerton.
