History
Coshocton was originally called Tuscarawas by American colonists, after the river, and under the latter name was laid out in 1802. The young town was renamed Cosh octon when it was designated county seat by the legislature in 1811. The Lenape were sympathetic to the new United States and signed the Treaty of Fort Pitt of 1778. In retaliation for frontier raids by hostile Lenape and British, Colonel Daniel Brodhead of the Continental Army ignored the treaty. He attacked and destroyed the Lenape at CoshOcton in April 1781. The town was named after the Coshoctan River, which runs through the town. It is now part of the town of Cosh Octon, which was once the site of a Lenape settlement. The city's name is still used as a reference to the town's former name, TusCarawas, by the U.S. state legislature in the early 19th century. It was named for the Tuscaraws, who lived in the area before the arrival of the colonists in the 17th century, and later moved to the present-day town of Tuscaloosa, in the state of New York. In 1811, the county legislature named the town after the Tus Carawas River, and in 1812 it was given the name Cosh OCTON by the state legislature, and the name of the county seat in the 1811 county election was held. The name was later changed to the current name, which is used for the city.
