McClure is a village in Henry County, Ohio, United States.

[4] In the 1960s and the first half of the 1970s, McClure had the distinction of being the last place in Ohio with a manual telephone system.

When Ohio Bell refused to run lines to McClure's rural residents, they formed a separate company, with volunteer labor used to build lines connecting the residents.

The new company in 1908 bought the Bell equipment, and in 1909 changed its name to the Citizens Mutual Telephone Co.[5] Long Distance calls were routed via Bell System equipment in Napoleon to the toll center in Maumee, and onward.

In the 1940s, the company opened a five-circuit toll line to Bowling Green, replacing the two-line circuit to Napoleon for long distance traffic.

[7] In late 1969, the Citizen's Mutual board voted to be acquired by Otto Miller of Liberty Center.

[9] The company spent the next several years building a new central office and running new lines to its nearly 500 subscribers.

[12] According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.50 square miles (1.29 km2), all land.
