Columbiana County comprises the [[Salem, Ohio|Salem, OH]] [[Micropolitan Statistical Area]], which is also included in the larger [[Mahoning Valley|Youngstown–Warren–Salem, OH Combined Statistical Area]]. Due to its location, Columbiana County is traditionally considered a part of [[Appalachian Ohio]]. While northern communities are more associated with [[Northeast Ohio]], southern communities generally share more in common culturally with [[Greater Pittsburgh]] and the [[Ohio River|Upper Ohio Valley]]. The largely rural county sits midway between the two urban clusters. Officially considered part of the Youngstown [[media market]], the [[Weirton–Steubenville metropolitan area|Steubenville]] market media stations regularly report in the area as well.

==History==
Columbiana County comprises the ''[[Salem, Ohio|Salem, OH]]'' ''[[Micropolitan Statistical Area]]'', which is also included in the ''[[Youngstown, Ohio|Youngstown-Warren]],'' ''[[Ohio|OH-]][[Pennsylvania|PA]]'' ''[[Youngstown–Warren–Boardman metropolitan statistical area|Combined Statistical Area]]''. It also abuts the ''[[Pittsburgh metropolitan area|Pittsburgh, PA Metropolitan Area]]'' directly to the east. [[Pittsburgh International Airport]] is only a 35-minute drive southeast of East Liverpool, while [[Downtown Pittsburgh]] is only 50 minutes away.
The principal historic [[Native Americans in the United States|Native American]] peoples in the area were the [[Lenape]], [[Mingo]], and [[Wyandot people|Wyandot]]. The Wyandot had an encampment where the city of [[Salem, Ohio|Salem]] now stands.<ref name="Historical Sketch">{{cite web|title=Historical Sketch of Columbiana County|url=http://www.columbianacounty.org/history|publisher=Columbiana County Courts website|accessdate=April 16, 2022}}</ref> Several important indigenous trails ran through the county, the most important being the [[Great Trail]] which ran through the southern parts of the county towards [[Sandusky, Ohio|Sandusky]]. Throughout the second half of the 18th century, starting with [[Christopher Gist]] in 1750, American colonists explored the area as the [[Ohio Company]] surveyed. [[George Washington]], while engaged in land examinations, camped in the area of present-day [[East Liverpool, Ohio|East Liverpool]] in October 1770.<ref name="Historical Sketch" />


In the 1780s, the Native Americans relinquished control of the area, and the region was surveyed in accordance with the [[Land Ordinance of 1785]]. The ensuing [[Public Land Survey System]] of the United States started by surveyor [[Thomas Hutchins]] on north bank of the [[Ohio River]] in present-day East Liverpool resulted in the [[Seven Ranges]], believed to be "the first mathematically designed system and nationally conducted [[cadastre|cadastral]] survey in any modern country."<ref name=nrhpinv2>{{cite journal|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: Beginning Point / Beginning Point of the U.S. Public Land Survey|url={{NHLS url|id=66000606}} |format=pdf|date=December 27, 1974 |author=Joseph S. Mendinghall |publisher=National Park Service}}</ref>
Due to its location, Columbiana County is traditionally considered part of both [[Appalachian Ohio]] and the [[Steel Valley (Ohio-Pennsylvania)|Steel Valley]], sharing more in common culturally with neighboring [[Western Pennsylvania]] and [[West Virginia]] (both of which are also part of [[Appalachia]]) than much of [[Northeast Ohio]] in general. Officially considered part of the Youngstown [[Media market|television market]], the [[Steubenville, Ohio|Steubenville]] television market regularly reports in the area as well.


The first permanent settlement in the area was in 1792 or 1793, by hunter John Quinn, who settled near present-day [[Calcutta, Ohio|Calcutta]] in [[St. Clair Township, Columbiana County, Ohio|St. Clair Township]].<ref name="Historical Sketch" /> Columbiana County was founded in 1803 and named in honor of [[Christopher Columbus]], combining his surname with the suffix [[-ana|-iana]]. It was settled early on by [[Quakers]] and [[Scotch-Irish Americans|Scotch-Irish]] from [[Pennsylvania]], but was later settled primary by [[German Americans|Germans]].<ref name="Historical Sketch" /> The county was the scene of one of the northernmost action fought during the [[American Civil War]]; on July 26, 1863, [[Confederate States of America|Confederate]] raiders under [[John Hunt Morgan|John Morgan]] were surrounded and captured by [[Union Army|Union forces]] at the [[Battle of Salineville]].
==History==

The principal historic [[Indigenous peoples of the Americas|Indian]] tribes in the area were the [[Wyandots]], [[Mingoes]], and [[Delawares]]. Throughout the second half of the 18th century white explorers, starting with [[Christopher Gist]] in 1750, came to the area. [[George Washington]], while engaged in land examinations, camped in the area of present-day [[East Liverpool]] in 1774.
The county was home to the largest [[pottery]] industry in the world, in [[East Liverpool]] & surrounding communities, which produced more than half of the United States' annual ceramics output. Throughout East Liverpool's ceramics history, there were more than 300 potteries.<ref>[http://www.themuseumofceramics.org/ Museum of Ceramics]</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=The City of East Liverpool |url=https://eastliverpool.com/ |access-date=2024-04-27 |website=The City of East Liverpool |language=en-US}}</ref> Other chief industries included iron and brick making, as well as transportation via the Ohio River, [[Sandy and Beaver Canal]], and [[Pennsylvania Railroad]] system.<ref name="Historical Sketch" />

{{main|2023 Ohio train derailment}}


On February 3, 2023, a freight train containing hazardous materials including [[vinyl chloride]] derailed in [[East Palestine, Ohio|East Palestine]]. After burning for more than two days, emergency crews conducted a controlled burn of the train's contents, releasing toxic [[hydrogen chloride]] and [[phosgene]] into the air, and contaminating the [[Ohio River]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=February 11, 2023 |title=Ohio catastrophe is 'wake-up call' to dangers of deadly train derailments |url=https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/feb/11/ohio-train-derailment-wake-up-call |website=The Guardian |access-date=February 23, 2023 |archive-date=February 13, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230213091852/https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/feb/11/ohio-train-derailment-wake-up-call |url-status=live }}</ref>

==Politics==
Unlike most counties in [[Northeast Ohio]], Columbiana County has been predominantly Republican throughout most of its history. In only eight elections from 1856 to the present has a Democratic Party candidate won the county, the most recent being [[Bill Clinton]] in 1996. Despite this, the county was a swing county in the latter half of the 20th century, voting for the national winner in all but two elections from 1952 to 2004. However, it has trended heavily Republican in more recent elections, with the party's candidates garnering increasing amounts of the vote in each presidential election from 2000 on. This trend was most apparent in 2016 when [[Donald Trump]] posted the best showing by a Republican in the county since [[Herbert Hoover]] in 1928 with a 41.4-point margin of victory over [[Hillary Clinton]].

Columbiana County is a county located in the U.S. state of Ohio. As of the 2020 census, the population was 101,877.[2] The county seat is Lisbon and its largest city is Salem.[3] Created in 1803, the county name is derived from that of 15th-century Italian explorer Christopher Columbus.[4]

Columbiana County comprises the Salem, OH Micropolitan Statistical Area, which is also included in the larger Youngstown–Warren–Salem, OH Combined Statistical Area. Due to its location, Columbiana County is traditionally considered a part of Appalachian Ohio. While northern communities are more associated with Northeast Ohio, southern communities generally share more in common culturally with Greater Pittsburgh and the Upper Ohio Valley. The largely rural county sits midway between the two urban clusters. Officially considered part of the Youngstown media market, the Steubenville market media stations regularly report in the area as well.

History[edit]

The principal historic Native American peoples in the area were the Lenape, Mingo, and Wyandot. The Wyandot had an encampment where the city of Salem now stands.[5] Several important indigenous trails ran through the county, the most important being the Great Trail which ran through the southern parts of the county towards Sandusky. Throughout the second half of the 18th century, starting with Christopher Gist in 1750, American colonists explored the area as the Ohio Company surveyed. George Washington, while engaged in land examinations, camped in the area of present-day East Liverpool in October 1770.[5]

In the 1780s, the Native Americans relinquished control of the area, and the region was surveyed in accordance with the Land Ordinance of 1785. The ensuing Public Land Survey System of the United States started by surveyor Thomas Hutchins on north bank of the Ohio River in present-day East Liverpool resulted in the Seven Ranges, believed to be "the first mathematically designed system and nationally conducted cadastral survey in any modern country."[6]

The first permanent settlement in the area was in 1792 or 1793, by hunter John Quinn, who settled near present-day Calcutta in St. Clair Township.[5] Columbiana County was founded in 1803 and named in honor of Christopher Columbus, combining his surname with the suffix -iana. It was settled early on by Quakers and Scotch-Irish from Pennsylvania, but was later settled primary by Germans.[5] The county was the scene of one of the northernmost action fought during the American Civil War; on July 26, 1863, Confederate raiders under John Morgan were surrounded and captured by Union forces at the Battle of Salineville.

The county was home to the largest pottery industry in the world, in East Liverpool & surrounding communities, which produced more than half of the United States' annual ceramics output. Throughout East Liverpool's ceramics history, there were more than 300 potteries.[7][8] Other chief industries included iron and brick making, as well as transportation via the Ohio River, Sandy and Beaver Canal, and Pennsylvania Railroad system.[5]

On February 3, 2023, a freight train containing hazardous materials including vinyl chloride derailed in East Palestine. After burning for more than two days, emergency crews conducted a controlled burn of the train's contents, releasing toxic hydrogen chloride and phosgene into the air, and contaminating the Ohio River.[9]

Geography[edit]

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 535 square miles (1,390 km2), of which 532 square miles (1,380 km2) is land and 2.8 square miles (7.3 km2) (0.5%) is water.[10]

Politics[edit]

Unlike most counties in Northeast Ohio, Columbiana County has been predominantly Republican throughout most of its history. In only eight elections from 1856 to the present has a Democratic Party candidate won the county, the most recent being Bill Clinton in 1996. Despite this, the county was a swing county in the latter half of the 20th century, voting for the national winner in all but two elections from 1952 to 2004. However, it has trended heavily Republican in more recent elections, with the party's candidates garnering increasing amounts of the vote in each presidential election from 2000 on. This trend was most apparent in 2016 when Donald Trump posted the best showing by a Republican in the county since Herbert Hoover in 1928 with a 41.4-point margin of victory over Hillary Clinton.
