Fulton County History
Fulton County was
established on February 28, 1850 and was one of the last
Counties in
Ohio to be organized. Land from Henry, Lucas, and Williams
Counties
was taken to form Fulton County. The old state line of Michigan runs
thorough
the central part of the county near Seward. An historic marker notes
the battle of 1835 between Michigan and Ohio over the positioning of the
state line and
possession of Toledo. After the "Toledo War," which Ohio
won,
the state line was moved north seven miles.
Fulton County is
made up of twelve townships and has seven incorporated
villages: Archbold,
Delta, Fayette, Lyons, Metamora, Swanton and Wauseon. Wauseon, which
is located in Clinton Township, was named county seat in
1872.
The name Wauseon comes from Chief Wa-se-on, Native American leader
of the
Ottawa tribe. Prior to the arrival of European settlers, the county
was
inhabited by Ottawa,
Potowatami and Miami Indians.
The first log house
was built in Wauseon by Elisha Williams in 1835. Wauseon was
also chosen
as the site for the first county hospital, which was organized in 1903.
