Archibald
Woods
,
George
Paul
,
Benjamin
Ruggles
, and
Levi
Barber
were
large
landowners
in
eastern
Ohio
and
sought
to have a
new
county
organized
. In
1812
they
selected
the
site
where
Woodsfield
now
stands
as the
place
for the
county
seat
. In that
year
, the
town
of
Woodsfield
was
surveyed
and
platted
. In
1814
the
Monroe
County
commissioners
designated
the
town
as the
county
seat
. By
1820
Woodsfield
contained
eighteen
houses
;
six
were
hewn
logs
and the
remainder
were
wood
cabins
.
Woodsfield
was
incorporated
in
1835
. In
1843
an
act
of the
General
Assembly
was
passed
extending
the
limits
of the
town
120
feet
in
every
direction
beyond
its
existing
corporation
limit
.
Located
off
major
transportation
routes
, the
town
grew
slowly
until
1879
,
when
the
narrow
gauge
line
Bellaire
and
Southwestern
Railroad
was
completed
to
Woodsfield
and
connected
the
town
to the
outside
world
.
