History
Madeira was largely laid out in 1871. Before this time the place was known as a post town, and was named for John Madeira who owned a large tract of land in the vicinity.[11][12] Madeira was incorporated as a village under the statutes of the State of Ohio in 1910.[12][13] The village was protected by a series of elected marshals and appointed deputy marshals until 1942 when Madeira’s first Chief of Police was appointed.[13]
Madeira gained city status in August of 1959.[13][14] The city nearly doubled in area with the 1970 annexation of the South Kenwood area of Columbia Township.[14][13]
