Beginning, before the settlers were the Wyandot Indians
Settlers arrived in the area as early as 1817. The location was at the crossroads of a north-south road from Columbus to Portland (now known as Sandusky), and the east-west route that later became (part of) the Lincoln Highway and subsequently the Harding Highway.
1817 Leveredge family moves in
1818 James Gill becomes first teacher; George Wood helps to build first school
1819 Asa Hosford arrives, brother Horace creates first blacksmith shop
The name Galion was suggested in 1824 by a postmaster as a unique name when the city first obtained a post office, because the name that was originally proposed would have duplicated the names of other requested Ohio post offices.
1831 Galion finally had a name and was established as a village. The city plans were laid out by Michael and Jacob Ruhl
A date often given for the founding of the city is 1831.
1832-1835 Galion grew tremendously from German Immigrants 
1836-1837 Galion businesses boom up
Galion was the birthplace of Orville J. Nave in 1841. Nave was a chaplain in the United States Army and the editor of Nave's Topical Bible, a widely-used reference work first published in 1896.
