Wood County, located in the great state of West Virginia, was created on December 21, 1798, from parts of Harrison County. The county is named in honor of James Wood, a distinguished Virginian and Governor of Virginia from 1796 to 1799. It lies in the western part of the state, covering an area of 377 square miles, and has its county seat in the city of Parkersburg.
Wood County played an important role in the early history of the United States. It was settled in the late 18th century by pioneers looking for fertile land and opportunities in trade and industry. The Ohio River provided transportation for the county's first settlers and then served as a primary route for trade and travel in the region. The Blennerhassett Island, which is located in the Ohio River in Wood County, has rich historical significance, featuring a mansion owned by Irish aristocrat Harman Blennerhassett, who was implicated in the infamous Aaron Burr conspiracy to establish an independent empire in the southwestern United States.
One fun fact about Wood County is that it is home to the Julia-Ann Square Historic District, an area filled with Victorian-style homes dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
