Even though Grove City was initially founded in 1852 it had earlier European settlers dating much earlier in the 1800’s. By 1853 Grove City had grown to about 50 residents due to the relationships between George Weygandt, William F. Breck, William Sibray, and Jeremiah Smith. What is now known as the downtown area; then Broadway was the heart of all the thriving settlers and by 1870 it had nearly tripled in size. By 1891 when the railroad found its way into town it brought with it both cargo and passengers and then it began to progress much faster. The daily commuter service brought more settlers and trade to the community. The railroad service continued to be the main source of transportation until about 1929 when it was replaced with the automobile. By 1930 when it was Post-World War II, Grove City’s population grew to more than 1500 and it reveled in a huge housing boom as workers moved to the city seeking employment opportunities at the local farms, factories, and gas stations.
