History

The first European-American settlement at Newport was made as early as 1798, as settlers from Massachusetts were the first to make their home. However, the site was not platted until 1839. A post office called Newport has been in operation since 1815.

The first Church in the settlement was established by the Methodists in 1825, followed in the next decades by Presbyterians, Baptists, and a Church of Christ.

Newport has had little industry in its history. Copper shops, cigar factories, and mills have all come and gone in the settlement’s first century.


A short distance southwest of Newport on what is now SR7 is the Judge Joseph Barker House. Built in 1832, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
