Here is a history page for Beachwood.
This excerpt is taken from the above history page. Much more information is available on the history page above.
Beachwood Village was part of Warrensville Township until 1915,
when it seceded following a decision by township officials to close a school in that
area. On May 29, 1915, a petition signed by 57 freeholders of the northeastern
part of the township was filed with the trustees. They asked that their section,
containing a population of 151, be permitted to incorporate as a village. On June
15, 1915, an election was held at the schoolhouse at the corner of Richmond and
North Woodland Road (now Fairmount Boulevard). Out of 47 votes only one was against the proposal.
One June 26, 1915 the trustees of Warrensville Township ordered the incorporation of Beachwood
Village.
