How Tipp City began
Tipp City began as Tippecanoe, platted in 1840 by John Clark along the Miami and Erie Canal in what was then Monroe Township. It was named Tippecanoe City for the 1840 Harrison campaign and the Battle of Tippecanoe, where William Henry Harrison earned his nickname. Wikipedia says the original downtown, a stopping place for canal boatmen, purportedly included many bars and a red-light district. The Hyattsville post office was renamed the Tippecanoe City post office on January 28, 1865, and in the 1930s the Postal Service shortened the post office's name to Tipp City to end confusion with Tippecanoe, Ohio. Its downtown forms the Old Tippecanoe Main Street Historic District, and the city had 10,274 residents in 2020.
Settled fall 1839 (foundations of Tippecanoe City laid), platted 1840, by John Clark.
Where the name comes from
Platted by John Clark in 1840 and named Tippecanoe City for the battle where William Henry Harrison earned his nickname 'Tippecanoe'. The 1880 county history says the first-lot buyer wanted the name Jaytown and Clark favored Sharpsburg for his Maryland boyhood home, but during the campaign of 1840 Clark, 'a friend and admirer of Harrison', chose Tippecanoe City, which he intended as a memorial of the battle; the post office was Hyattsville until 1865, and the name was shortened to Tipp City in the 1930s.
Before the town
Before white settlement, a Shawnee village stood in the southeastern part of what became Monroe Township -- the township Tipp City was later platted within -- below the future line of the town, according to the township's 1880 county history. No source ties a named Shawnee town directly to the platted site of Tippecanoe itself.
Nations recorded here: Shawnee.
- Shawnee village, southeastern Monroe Township (village) — southeastern Monroe Township, below the later line of Tippecanoe (Tipp City), before 1801 (thetroyhistoricalsociety.org)

Stories
A canal town and its Main Street bars
John Clark platted Tippecanoe in 1840 along the developing Miami and Erie Canal. Wikipedia describes the town as a stopping point for boatmen on the canal and says its original downtown purportedly included a large number of bars and a red-light district.
Two names for one post office
For a time the Hyattsville post office served the community. On January 28, 1865, near the end of the Civil War, the Hyattsville post office officially became the Tippecanoe City post office. In the 1930s the Postal Service abbreviated the name to resolve delivery errors with Tippecanoe, Ohio, and around 1938 the name Tipp City appears on postal maps.
What to call the new town
John Clark had come to Monroe Township as a boy of nine from Maryland and in the fall of 1839 swapped farms with his brother-in-law, Robert Evans, who had grown tired of a wet, heavily timbered tract near the canal. Clark laid it out in the year of Harrison's presidential campaign, and the new village needed a name. According to the 1880 county history, the man who bought the first lot wanted it called Jaytown to preserve his own name, while Clark favored Sharpsburg after his old home in Maryland. But it was 1840, and Clark, who was a friend and admirer of Harrison, decided on Tippecanoe City, for the battlefield where Harrison had broken the Indians in 1811. Clark also insisted that no log buildings be put up on the lots, and the early town became known for neat frame and brick houses. The first store was opened by Mr. Jay in the fall of 1840 in goods he exchanged for produce.

64% of these days are measurements from a gauge inside Tipp City; the rest are estimated from the nearest gauges around it.
48,405 days of records, 1893-06-02 to 2026-10-29. Source: NOAA NCEI GHCN-Daily, 3,240 gauges in and around Ohio. A day is "gauged" when a gauge standing inside the boundary reported it, and the value is the mean of those gauges. Otherwise it is interpolated by inverse distance from every gauge reporting within 50 miles. Nothing is carried forward, back-filled or smoothed. Against NOAA nClimDiv county monthly precipitation over 136,848 complete county-months (checked 2026-10-31): correlation 0.9515, median absolute difference 0.217 in a month. Built 2026-10-31 from the Cracked Buckeye precipitation archive. Snow is the softer number — snowfall is measured by hand with a ruler, no agency publishes a gridded county snowfall series, and blowing snow defeats every observer.
