Little Scioto River (Ohio River)
The Little Scioto River rises in western Jackson County and flows generally southwardly into Scioto County, near Minford. It flows into the Ohio River in the eastern part of the city of Portsmouth, 6 miles (9.7 km) east of the town's center.
The United States Board on Geographic Names settled on "Little Scioto River" as the stream's name in 1913. According to the Geographic Names Information System, the Little Scioto has also been known historically as "Brushy Fork," "Little Siota River" and "Little Sciota River."
