It lies along State Route 154. HistoryElkton was platted in 1835.[2] The community derives its name from nearby Elk Run creek.[3] A post office called Elkton has been in operation since 1838.[4] The community thrived due to its location on the Sandy and Beaver Canal, but was in decline by the late 1840s when the canal became unprofitable and was suspended.[5] Notable landmarksElkton is the location of a federal prison, the Federal Correctional Institution, Elkton. Additionally, Elkton claims to have the shortest covered bridge in the United States, crossing Little Beaver Creek.
