History

The village has been known by several names in its history. Platted by George and Henry Beymer in 1805, it was initially known by two names; Beymerstown and New Washington. It was incorporated as Washington in 1829, soon after the National Road reached it. The present name was later adopted to mitigate postal confusion with the City of Washington, now known as City of Washington Court House in Fayette County.

In July 1863, Old Washington was the site of a small engagement during the course of Morgan’s Raid. In the course of their campaign through Ohio, the Confederate raiders appeared in several Guernsey County villages, including Old Washington, where they wreaked havoc before being caught by Union cavalry. The three Confederate dead are buried at the cemetery in Old Washington.
