List of cities and towns along the Ohio River

From West Virginia (WV) Cyclopedia

Cities and towns along the Ohio River in West Virginia were once associated with portage, refinement, and extraction of oil, coal, steel, glass, timber, natural gas, and other resources. Most such industries have long-since declined and a large part of the region is now otherwise metropolitan, residential, or agricultural. Prior to European settlement, many Native American communities (http://www.wvexp.com/index.php/Category:Pre-Contact_Period) were located along the river.
