New Haven was platted as a village by Joab Comstock in 1815. In the 19th century, the village had a post office, but was known as "Preston". This was necessary because there was already a New Haven in Huron County, Ohio, and the name was assigned by the first postmaster, Alexander Preston Cavender.[citation needed]
