Muskingum County, located in the southeastern part of the U.S. state of Ohio, was officially organized on January 7, 1804, making it one of Ohio's oldest counties. The county was named after the Muskingum River, which is derived from the Native American term "Maskingum," meaning "swampy ground" or "by the river side." The area had originally been inhabited by various Native American tribes, such as the Delaware, Shawnee, and Wyandot, before European settlers began arriving in the late 1700s.

As Ohio's population grew, the county became an important transportation hub, with the construction of the National Road, or Route 40, in 1825. The presence of this road significantly stimulated growth and development in the region, allowing for easier movement of goods and people. In addition, the completion of the Ohio and Erie Canal in 1832 further increased the county's prominence as a hub for commercial activity.

The 20th century saw the rise of many manufacturing industries in the county, such as pottery, glass, and aluminum manufacturing, which have gradually declined with economic changes in modern times.

One of the most interesting aspects of Muskingum County is Zanesville, the county seat, which is often referred to as the "Y-Bridge City." Zanesville is home to a unique and historic Y-shaped bridge that initially opened in 1814. This three-way bridge across the confluence of the Muskingum and Licking Rivers is one of few such structures in the world, making it a notable attraction and a source of local pride for the people of Muskingum County, Ohio.
