== History ==
For years, South Cumminsville was the southern portion of a larger settlement known as Cumminsville. Cumminsville was incorporated in 1865 and annexed into Cincinnati eight years later. In the early 1900s, growth attracted many German Catholics. Cumminsville also attracted a number of African-Americans, who moved to the area of Follett and Dreman avenues. This sub-neighborhood became known as South Cumminsville, according to history books. Boosted by the opening of the Millvale apartments in the 1950s, South Cumminsville evolved into a predominantly African-American community. Many of the newcomers in the northern portions of Cumminsville became to identify themselves with Northside, while South Cumminsville retained its identity.
One of the more grisly aspects of Cumminsville history stems from a rash of unsolved murders that occurred there in the early 1900s. From 1904-1910, five women were savagely slain within a mile of the Spring Grove and Winton Road corner in Cumminsville, earning the district the grisly sobriquet of "the murder zone" and sparking fear that Cincinnati was in the grip of its first serial killer. These five cases remain unsolved, and are detailed in the first chapter of the book "Queen City Gothic", by local author and true crime historian JT. Townsend.〔(J. T. Townsend )〕
