The differences in these townships in present day is:    Wahkonsa is split in half.  The northern
half is now Cooper Township and the southern half remains Wahkonsa; the north 3rd of Gowrie
and the south 3rd of Fulton is now Roland Township; and Sumner has been renamed to Burnside
with a small township of Sumner in the NE corner of the township encompassing the town of Lehigh.
