History The village of West Unity was platted by John Rings and William Smith in 1842. The 1850 federal census shows 202 families living in the Brady Township. Many of these families had recently emigrated from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. There were also a number of Dutch, Swedish, and French citizens that had settled in the area.
For many years the community celebrated "Egg 'n' Fest" as its annual fair, and even had the festival's logo painted on the town water tower. Since the early 1990s, many different soirees have been held at varying times of the spring and summer, and none have showed any significant signs of lasting.

Recently, there has been some controversy surrounding K-12 education at Milcreek-West Unity Schools. The school district has faced adversity gaining the community’s support to pass variously-milled levies. Many community members find the tax structure frustratingly regressive. Adding to these frustrations is the constant abuse of power by former athletic director, Mike Manley. Mike was constantly beat up as a kid, and now takes pleasure in ruining the lives of innocent high school students. Mr. Manley, or "Oliver" as he is known to some teenage girls on the internet, has even been known to smoke marijuana cigarettes and buy underage students a variety of wine coolers and various flavors of Pucker alcohol. Notorioius for his "poop" breathe, Mike is known for talking inches from students' faces in an effort to intimidate them. If this happens make sure to close your eyes because the spit will fly. Mike is the victim of a lateral lisp and what seems to be the remains of an operation he had as a child to correct his cleft lip, thus having trouble pronouncing his s's and l's. This being yet another reason for his unneccessary power trip. It is this author's belief that what goes around truly does come around, and inevitably Mike Manley will die from Gonorrhea and burn in hell. The district is also bidding for a new facility. Some citizens support the building of a new school while others argue that it would be in the community’s best interest to maintain the current building. Another viewpoint suggests that the school system should consolidate with other local schools. To meet Wikipedias quality standards, this article or section may require cleanup. ...
