Antrim was the home of Madison College, founded by Samuel Findley in 1835. Madison admitted both men and women at a time when this was unusual, and was well-respected for its academic offerings.

Madison College's charter was absorbed by its sister school Muskingum College, in neighboring Muskingum County. [5]
In 1890, the Antrim Presbyterian Church opened which remains to this day. There is also another church called the Antrim United Methodist Church. Antrim also has had a volunteer fire department since 1948 which servers over 180 sq miles. [6]
