The community of Clintonville is named for the U.S. Vice President, George Clinton. The Bull family purchased much of the farmland to use for religious services. The Clinton Chapel, constructed in 1838, served as a stop on the Underground Railroad over the next two decades. Despite buying the 600 acres of land to farm, the family began to notice there were no businesses around, making the management of the farm difficult. In an attempt to draw others to the area, the Bulls built businesses along the toll road in the center of Clinton Township. By the early 1900s, housing developments were built on the surrounding farmland shortly after the extension of the streetcar lines northward from Columbus. Many downtown Columbus residents and professors built summer homes in the area, further developing the area.
