Carthage, Cincinnati
History
This area was first settled in 1791 or 1792, when Capt. Jacob White, from Redstone (Brownsville), Pennsylvania settled and founded White's Station in the extreme southeastern section of Springfield Township. White's Station, a small log blockhouse, was attacked by a party of Native Americans on the 19th of October, 1793.
Carthage had 148 inhabitants in the 1830 United States Census.
Carthage was incorporated as a village in 1868 and then annexed into Cincinnati in 1911.
Carthage began to experience significant Hispanic migration in the 1990s, resulting in the creation of a Hispanic community around the business district along Vine Street.
