History

Originally, the city of Onamia was organized from the merger of two communities, Village of Onamia (Ojibwe: Onamanii-zaaga’iganiing) and the Village of Ericksonville (Ojibwe: Gibaakwa’igaansing). Onamia is named after Lake Onamia, of which “Onamia” is derived from the Ojibwe word onaman meaning “red ochre”, or locally as “vermilion”. Ericksonville was incorporated in 1898.
