Didn Randolph Township cease to exist after the 1998 land merger?
No. Randolph Township still exists as a surveyed township and its boundaries will continue to show on maps and appear in deed records. Randolph did lose its classification as a civil township with a township government made up of its own elected township trustees. Following voter approval of the merger of unincorporated parts of the old township with the Village of Clayton, the township government was replaced with government by the municipality of Clayton in January of 1998. Englewood and Union continued with their own city governments within their own city limits.
