While some have been totally absorbed into cities or towns, becoming paper townships, the list does not give historic names for any that were renamed . </P> <P> The 2010 - 2011 Ohio Municipal, Township and School Board Roster maintained by the Ohio Secretary of State lists 1,309 townships with a 2010 population totaling 5,680,042; meaning approximately 49% of the State's population were residents of townships . When paper townships are excluded, but name variants counted separately (e.g. "Brush Creek" versus "Brushcreek", "Vermilion" versus "Vermillion"), there are 618 different names used by townships statewide, including 451 names used only once . On the opposite end of the spectrum, forty - three townships are named "Washington", and eight other names are used for twenty or more townships each . </P> <P> See: List of Ohio counties - List of cities in Ohio - List of villages in Ohio </P>
