Columbia’s founder, Benjamin Stites, is said to have explored the area by accident. While on a trading expedition in Kentucky, Stites led a party in pursuit of a band of Indian horse thieves. Although the Indians were pursued up the Little Miami Valley to the area of present-day Xenia, the horses were never recovered. Stites may have returned empty-handed, but he had a dream. The land he had explored appeared to be the ideal location to settle. Stites closed his trading post and quickly returned to his family in Pennsylvania. He gathered a party of 26 settlers and returned to the area, calling the settlement “Columbia.”
