Delphos
is located in
Northwestern Ohio and was founded in 1845 and
incorporated in 1851. Reverend Father Otto Bredeick and his brother, Ferdinand,
selected the location, which was determined
by construction of the Miami-Erie Canal, the
waterway that once ran from Toledo to
Cincinnati. This is prime agricultural land.
Delphos has a population
of 8,000 persons within its three square
mile area, plus another 8,000 in its
adjoining townships that are served by its Post Office and School System. The community
sits in three counties, being divided east
and west by the Van Wert-Allen County Line,
and bounded to the north by Putnam County.
The historic Miami-Erie Canal and the
Lincoln Highway, the first coast-to-coast
highway in this country, intersect in the
heart of Delphos. The city celebrates its
place in history with its annual Canal Days
Festival.
