Can anyone tell me what county Beldon township was in, in 1900? Also does anyone know if there was a "Children's Home" " Industrial school" etc. in Lorain county by the name of Mariette Shepherds. My grandmothers half-brother was put in foster care at the age of 1. >From the age of 8 to 10--about 1900 to 1902 he was in a home he called Mariette Shepherds in Beldon. I have searched the 1900 census and cannot find a Mariette Shepherd listed for Lorain county. He went by the name Archie Paul Bliss or Paul Bliss. Born in 1892 in Cleveland.

I can not answer your question as to Beldon Township. I never heard of one. However, the intersection of state route 303 and state route 76 (I believe it is now 83) in the center of Grafton Township in Lorain County was called Beldon. In the late 40's there was a Beldon High School there. I hope this gives you a lead at least.
