History

Lakewood was laid out in 1897 by the Western Town Lot Company.[4] It was named from a lake in the woods near the town site.[4] A post office has been in operation in Lakewood since 1897.[5] The first schoolhouse was built on the Brook Farm in 1906. In 1921, a fire nearly destroyed the entire town. [6]
