Canaanville, Ohio

Canaanville /ˈkeɪnənvɪl/[1] is an unincorporated community in Canaan Township, Athens County, Ohio, United States.

[2] According to the Centennial Atlas of Athens County (1905), the community originally called Canaanville was slightly to the west, west of where Ohio State Route 690 now intersects with US Route 50.

For a period of some years, there was a restaurant and bakery on the north side of Canaanville, known as the Big Chimney Bakery because of the old chimney of a mining facility.

When US Route 50 was upgraded to a four-lane divided highway, Canaanville was cut in two lengthwise.
