We may be biased ‘round these parts, but Cincinnati is a really great name for a city. Apparently, over the years, other folks thought the same thing as there are six places in the United States named Cincinnati. Most, it seems, were named for the original starting in the middle of the nineteenth century.
Cincinnati, California
Not to be confused with the neighborhood of California in Cincinnati, this tiny community, which no longer exists, was a mining town in Northern California. It was located along what is now California Route 193 between Kelsey and Spanish Flat.
The local neighborhood and the former mining settlement may be related though. According to the 1987 book California on the Ohio, by Steve Hill, California, Ohio was platted in 1849 by Joseph Gutherie, John W. Brown, and Thomas J. Murdock, even though the area had been settled about 50 years earlier.
According to Hill, the trio decided to plan the town after giving up on being prospectors in the Gold Rush. It’s reasonable to assume that they gave Cincinnati, California its name before heading back east to lay out the town of California, just east of Cincinnati.
Cincinnati, Iowa
Like the one in California, Cincinnati, Iowa also started as a mining community, though it was coal, not gold, they were pulling from the ground. The town was platted in 1855 and was named by J.H.B. Armstrong, a former resident of Cincinnati, Ohio. Roughly two miles from the border with Missouri, the town currently has about 350 residents.
Cincinnati, Missouri
Speaking of the Show-Me State, Missouri also has a Cincinnati. There’s no town there now, though there was at one time. From 1886 to 1904 it had a post office. It was also the site of an inn, as well as a Catholic church. It was named in 1833 by James and Sarah Wells who had moved to the area from Cincinnati, Ohio. Today, it is an unincorporated part of Ralls County along the Salt River about 25 miles southwest of Hanibal, Missouri.
Cincinnati, Indiana
Located 16 miles southwest of Bloomington, Indiana, and 144 miles west of Cincinnati, Ohio, this village is an unincorporated part of Center Township in Greene County, Indiana. A post office was established in 1874 and operated until 1931. The village was named by a Cincinnati, Ohio resident who said it reminded him of his hometown based on the surrounding hills and the abundance of whiskey. While it has only around 100 residents now, Cincinnati, Indiana is the home of Eastern Greene High School, as well as a branch of the County Library.
Cincinnati, Indiana
No, that’s not a typo, there are indeed two places in Indiana called Cincinnati, though this second one exists in name only. It’s in an area of Washington Township in Parke County. According to a book called A History of Parke and Vermillion Counties published in 1913, there was a lot of business being conducted between this part of Indiana and Cincinnati, Ohio in the mid-1800s. Likely someone from the Queen City gave the area its name. There’s no indication that any permanent settlement was located in that specific area though.
Cincinnati, Arkansas
Located in Washington County, Arkansas, this is the largest of the other Cincinnati's. It boasts a population of 942 (sa-lute!). It’s located along Arkansas Route 59 near Cincinnati Creek. Formerly known as Silvia and Buzzard Roost, it became Cincinnati in 1857. It was quite a bustling little town in the late 1800s, with a wagon and farm implement maker, millers, a few tanneries, a blacksmith, harness shop, an undertaker, and a hotel. It also claimed two churches, a doctor, a dentist, a druggist, a school, and a Masonic Lodge. A newspaper called the Argus Weekly started around 1900, and the town had its own phone company from around that time until 1940. In 2010, the tiny community was devastated by a tornado but has since been rebuilt.

I want to talk about someone who restored the happiness I shared with my husband and its indeed something I am forever grateful for. I was helpless and downcast for almost 2 years when my husband left me due to marital issues. I did all i could to save my marriage and nothing worked until Dr Ilekhojie came to my rescue. He reconciled us and the love and happiness I shared with my man was restored back. I know it sounds weird if truly he can help anyone but he is 100% guaranteed not to disappoint you when he assures you of having the desired results after 3 days. He can help you too if you are willing to give him the chance to do so. Text him on WhatsApp him on +2348147400259

I started to notice some strange behavior from my husband and a few weeks later, I found out that my husband is seeing someone in his work place. He started coming home late from work and he hardly spends extra time with me or the kids. Sometimes he goes out and doesn’t even come back home for about a week. I became very worried and needed urgent help to save my marriage. As I was browsing through the Internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr Ilekhojie can help solve marital problems and restore relationships. I contacted him he told me that someone else has broken the connection between me and my husband and he opted to perform a reconciliation ritual to fix it. I provided all he asked and within 3 days, my husband started spending so much time at home and even took me out on a night out just the two of us. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal and my family is back happy again.. All thanks to Dr Ilekhojie. I suggest you contact him for help.
