Administrative history
Portsmouth was incorporated as a village in 1859 and was annexed to the City of Kingston in 1952. The area which became Portsmouth Village was part of Kingston Township in the original survey of 1783-1784. The township lots were numbered from Collins Bay to Kingston and the settlement that grew up on lots 18, 19, and 20 came to be known as Portsmouth.
