Portage is a town in Wood County, Ohio, that was established in 1836; it should not be confused with Portage County, which is much farther east and unrelated. The Portage Post Office was established in 1829, and both take their name from the nearby Portage River. The word “portage” is a Native American word meaning “to carry” (early natives and even contemporary canoe buffs “portage” their canoes between water sources that are disconnected). Wood County was created in 1820, not too long before Portage, as a result of the Lower Maumee Treaty of 1817. Portage village was incorporated in 1857.
