History
Mexico was laid out and platted in 1832.[3] The community was named in commemoration of the Mexican War of Independence.[4] The community was located in Crawford County until land the town site occupies was given to form Wyandot County in 1845.[5] A post office was established at Mexico in 1837, and remained in operation until 1902.[6]
