Pagwa River, Ontario

Pagwa River is a community in the Cochrane District of Ontario. The place is counted as part of Cochrane, Unorganized, North Part in Canadian census data. It was named as a railway divisional point, where it supported a fur trading post, as it was at a major junction of the railway and the Pagwachuan River, which was important to fur trading at the time. Packet steamers ran between Pagwa and James Bay to serve the Revillon Freres trading post and community early in the 1900s.
