New Dover is an unincorporated community in Dover Township, Union County, Ohio, United States. It is located along U.S. Route 36, about three miles east of Marysville.[1]
New Dover was originally called Dover, and under the latter name was laid out and platted in 1854.[2] The New Dover Post Office was established on February 5, 1856. As of 1877, the village did a considerable amount of manufacturing business. It contained one church, a school-house, one harness shop, one blacksmith shop, and several other stores.[3] The post office was discontinued on April 30, 1935. The mail service is now sent through the Marysville branch.
