History

The area was first settled by brothers Benaiah and Edmund Jones, who came here from Painesville, Ohio in 1828 and purchased land the next year. They surveyed and platted the community by 1831. It served as the first county seat of Hillsdale County, which was formally organized in 1835. The Jonesville post office opened on January 21, 1841. The community incorporated as a village in 1855. Jonesville once contained a railway station along the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway.

In August 2014, the village voted to adopt a charter and incorporated as a city.

The city contains three listings on the National Register of Historic Places: J.J. Deal and Son Carriage Factory, Grace Episcopal Church, and the E.O. Grosvenor House. All three of these are also Michigan State Historic Sites, and the city also includes the state historic sites the Delevan (Munro) House and Kiddie Brush and Toy Company. The toy company occupied the same building as the Carriage Factory, which is now renovated as an apartment complex.
