East Fairfield is an unincorporated community in Fairfield Township, Columbiana County, Ohio, United States.[1]

The town is located on Ohio State Route 7, north of Rogers.

History

East Fairfield was laid out in 1803.[2] With the construction of the railroad, business activity shifted away from inland East Fairfield, and the town's population dwindled.[3] A post office called East Fairfield was established in 1828, and remained in operation until 1906.[4]
