It is part of the [[Madison, Wisconsin|Madison]] [[Madison, Wisconsin metropolitan area|Metropolitan Statistical Area]]. ==History== [[File:MarshallWisconsinSign2.jpg|thumb|left|Population sign on [[Wisconsin Highway 73|WIS 73]]]] In June 1837, Andrew Bird, Zenas Bird and Aaron Petrie began a settlement along the banks of the [[Maunesha River]]. In the fall of 1838, a fire destroyed the settlement. For more than a decade after that the area was known as Bird's Ruins.<ref name=VoMh/><ref name=maba>[http://www.marshallbusiness.com/about_marshall.htm Marshall Area Business Association Website].

Howard City did not prosper, so Asahel Hanchett sold his land holdings to Madison real estate brokers William F. Porter and Samuel Marshall in 1860.
