http://ipoetry.us/Poems/The%20Meaning%20of%20Michigan%20County%20Names.pdf Shiawassee means the river straight ahead with the bright shiny gleam. In Chippewa/Ottawa, its name was likely “gwaiak-wasshkong-ziibii”. The name Shiawassee is similar to Tittabawasee. Tittabawassee means the turned or bent shining river --Manfariel (talk) 23:41, 9 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
