History

Onedia sprang up around 1840 when a mill was built at that point.[2] The community takes its name from Oneida County, New York, the native home of the mill's proprietor.[2] A post office called Oneida Mills was established in 1851, the name was changed to Oneida in 1899, and the post office closed in 1918.[3]

The Patrick Hull House in Oneida is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[4]
