Roundhead is an unincorporated community in southeastern Roundhead Township, Hardin County, Ohio, United States. Although it is unincorporated, it has a post office, with the ZIP code of 43346.[1] Located at an altitude of 1,004 feet (306 m),[2] it sits at the intersection of State Routes 117, 235, and 385, 2¾ mile (4½ km) north of the northeast corner of Indian Lake and 13 miles (24 km) southwest of the city of Kenton,[3] the county seat of Hardin County.[4] Despite Roundhead's proximity to Indian Lake and the Great Miami River, which flows out of it to the Ohio River at Cincinnati,[5] the community is drained by the headwaters of the Scioto River, which meets the Ohio River at Portsmouth.[6]

History

The first Euro-American settlement at Roundhead was made in 1832 on the site of a former Wyandot Indian village.[7] The community is named for the Wyandot chief Roundhead.[8] During its history, the community has also been referred to as "Round Head," "Round Heads," "Round Headstown," and "Roundheads Town."[2] A post office has been in operation at Roundhead since 1837.[9]

An archaeological site, the Zimmerman Kame, is located in the Roundhead vicinity; it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[10]

Community

Besides its post office, the community includes a Park, a volunteer fire department,[11] and two cemeteries.[12][13]
