Waterville Though pioneers were around much earlier, John Pray laid out the village and began drawing a plat map in 1830. Waterville is the second oldest plat in Lucas County. The first canal boat passed through Waterville in 1843 on its way to Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Although the village is growing dramatically with a population of over 4800, residents still enjoy the safety of a small community, with easy accessibility to larger cities like Toledo and Fort Wayne.
