History
4
Named for a Wyandot chief, Solomon Town was once the home of Chief Tarhee. During the American Revolution it served as the headquarters of renegade Simon Girty, who brought Simon Kenton here after saving his life in 1778. Hull camped here in 1812. After the Indians moved north, early settlers used its log huts. For many years the annual muster of militia was held here, and John Stewart's visit in 1818 resulted in the Methodists taking over the Sandusky Mission.
