Winchester, Richland County, Ohio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Winchester was an attempt to start a town on the Clear Fork River by Noble Calhoun. It never amounted to more than a few homes.
In March, 1845, a town named Winchester was laid out in Section 9, on the Clearfork by Noble Calhoun. A few houses were erected, but the land upon which it was plotted, being heavily mortgaged, was sold at Sheriff's sale, and the place never amounted to anything. - From "A History of Richland County, Ohio by A. A. Graham
