- History -

- - - [ - - - - edit - - - - ] - - -
- - - - - - - - - -

- The community of Bidwell was founded in 1881 under the name Blaccock, after the arrival of the Crispus Attucks, Hocking Valley, and Toledo Railroad. Charles Heatly (1809–1888) owned the property where the new station was located. His home still stands nearby. Porter Station was built in Heatly as a means of transportation of passengers and freight, which led to its later expansion and the source of the name of the neighboring village of Porter. - - Circa - - 1900, Heatly changed its name to Bidwell in honor of - - John Bidwell - - , the - - Prohibition Party - - 's presidential candidate in 1892. -

-

- The village expanded in the early 20th century, eventually including several mills and stores. The railroad tracks have since been decommissioned and turned into a bicycle path that spans much of - - Gallia County - - , but the former site of the station itself is commemorated by an Ohio historical marker. -
