Port Washington is situated in the eastern part of the township and in the northeastern corner of the Salem tract. It is a very pleasantly located village, and in 1880 contained a population of 634. In 1840, it had but 116 inhabitants; in 1850, 260; and in 1870, 425. Like a number of other villages, its origin was due to the constriction of the Ohio Canal. John Knight, its proprietor, came to the township from Antrim, Harrison County, for the purpose of constructing a mill, it is said, across the river, just above the bridge, near Port Washington. He was stricken with fever and gave up the project. Soon after, he laid out the town, calling it Salisbury. He opened a store and built a warehouse, purchased and finished a tavern that had been commenced by Thomas Moore, was inn-keeper for many years, and then removed to the "Stark patent," Oxford Township, where he engaged in farming. Charles Hill and Richard Carr built the first houses in the newly-started village. The former had been a farmer, but moved to the village site and opened in his dwelling house the first store in the place. He engaged in the grain and produce trade until he failed in business. He built a canal boat on the street, was afterward a canal contractor, removed to Cincinnati and died in Tennessee. His family now reside at Terre Haute, Ind. Richard Carr, son of Aquilla Carr, first started a store at the lock, about a half mile above the village, and afterward kept a station for the canal men at Port Washington, where he died of cholera. Benjamin Carr, son of James Carr, kept the first tavern. It stood near the tow-path of the canal on the corner, west of Main street. Thomas J. Gibbings was the first blacksmith. John Allen taught one of the earliest schools. (Page 638)
