Simons on February 2, 1874. Incorporated as a village in 1903 and as a city in 1935. Named after the grayling trout, once so plentiful in the Au Sable River. The fish was identified by Martin Metcalf in 1861 and named by Prof. Jean Agassiz, of Harvard. Informational excerpts from Michigan Place Names, by Walter Romig, L.H.D.
