Bluffton’s golden age may well have been the decade of the 1890s. You might call Bluffton a boom town during this decade.  

Consider:

• Oil and natural gas was discovered in Findlay 10 years earlier

• Town hall built in 1887

• Water plant in service in 1896

• Telephone arrived in 1898

• Central Mennonite College opened in 1889

• Population in 1900 was 1,783; 50 years earlier the town has 12 families
