Charloe is an unincorporated community in Paulding County, in the U.S. state of Ohio. There is a grocery store with gasoline pumps, a cafe, and a small manufacturer at Charloe.
An Ottawa Indian village stood at the site of Charloe,[1] and the community was named for Charloe Peter, an Indian chief.[2]
Charloe was the county seat of Paulding County in the 1840s,[2] but lost its county seat status to Paulding in 1851, prompting the former community's decline.[3]
A post office was also established at Charloe in 1840, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1905.[4]
