History
Between 1918 and 1926, SR 51 went from SR 2 in Elkhart to the Michigan state line, now the route is State Road 19. In 1926, SR 51 was removed from that section of roadway and it was signed as US 112.
There were plans to build SR 51 from State Road 10 to State Road 2, but that route was never built.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“False history gets made all day, any day,
the truth of the new is never on the news
False history gets written every day

sifting her own life out from the shards she’s piecing,
asking the clay all questions but her own.”

“A poet’s object is not to tell what actually happened but what could or would happen either probably or inevitably.... For this reason poetry is something more scientific and serious than history, because poetry tends to give general truths while history gives particular facts.”
—Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
““And now this is the way in which the history of your former life has reached my ears!” As he said this he held out in his hand the fatal letter.”
