Cicero, Ohio

Cicero is an extinct town in Defiance County, in the U.S. state of Ohio.

History

Cicero had its start in 1846 when a sawmill was built there. Once the surrounding forests were depleted, the sawmill closed and the town's population dwindled. Cicero had a post office from 1852 until it was discontinued in 1901.
