History

St. Marys has gone by a variety of names, the first of which was the name of a Native American village on the same location—Kettletown.

Formerly known as "Fort Barbee" and "Girty's Town", St. Marys was the county seat of Mercer County from 1824 until 1840 when the seat was moved to Celina. After Auglaize County was organized in 1848, St. Marys competed with Wapakoneta for the position as county seat, but was ultimately unsuccessful in a controversial countywide election.
