Warrensburg, Ohio
Map
Warrensburg, Ohio is an unincorporated community in Scioto Township, Delaware County, in the U.S. state of Ohio.[1]
History
[edit]In 1809–1810, Philip Horshaw built a grist mill along the Olentangy River, attracting Benjamin Powers and Joseph Dunlap to build a store nearby. The development was the first of its kind in Scioto Township, attracting enough settlers to form a town known as Millville. The town expanded quickly but would be hampered when the railroad was built through the nearby town of Ostrander, Ohio.[2]
A post office opened on August 26, 1885, called Warrensburg, and closed a few years later due to the lack of mail.[3]
