History

Jeromesville was platted in 1815 ( near the site of a former and abandoned Native-American village named "Jerometown").^[4] It is named for Jean/John Baptiste Jerome, (a French-Canadian fur trader and pioneer settler), from whom, Christian Deardorf and William Vaughn purchased land and 'founded' a new pioneer village, (which was originally spelled "Jeromeville").^[5]^[6]^[7] A post office has been in operation at Jeromesville since 1816.^[8] [Note: the Native-American village of Jerometown is often attributed to be the same as "Mohican Johnstown"; however, the mid-1700s village named "Mohican Johnstown" was not at this same location.(see Lenape settlements)]

In 2018, Mayor Randy Spade founded the Jeromesville Junior Council, an advisory group consisting of 5th through 8th graders attending Hillsdale Local School District.^[9]

This is the first Junior Village Council codified into law in the State of Ohio.
