Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Qualey is a small, unincorporated community located in Washington County, in the state of Ohio, United States. An unincorporated community means it's a group of homes or businesses that isn't officially part of a city or town. It's often just a small area with a common name.

History of Qualey

The community of Qualey has a simple but interesting history. It was named after a person named Michael Qualey. He was the first owner of the land where this community grew.

A post office was opened in Qualey in 1891. This was an important step for any small community at that time. It meant people could send and receive mail right in their own area. The post office served the community for many years. It finally closed down in 1918.

Today, Qualey remains a quiet, unincorporated area in Ohio.
