History

A post office called South Point has been in operation since 1855 in Fayette Township.[4] The village was so named for the fact the southernmost point in the state is contained within its borders.[5] Now considered to be a populated place within South Point,[6] in 1918 the community of North Kenova was located at (38.412, -82.578),[7] so named because it was on the opposite bank of the Ohio River from Kenova, West Virginia.
