Apparently, there was a "Scioto Company" formed in France in the late 1700's whose sole purpose, apparently, was to defraud investors who ended up founding Marietta, Ohio despite their losses. The company James Kilbourne formed was also named the "Scioto Company", and had nothing to do with the earlier French scam. So anyway, a disambiguation page will be needed before I can link to "Scioto Company" in Wikipedia. I'll have to figure out how to do this...

If there are only two options, you don't need a separate disambiguation page. Just have a statement at the top of both pages referring to the other (e.g. This page is about the French company. For the American company, see Scioto Company (United States). or something like that). Though the question then becomes, which company should use the page title Scioto Company and which page should use the page title with a parenthetical (such as Scioto Company (United States). The answer depends on which is more well known and/or which has the most relevant Wikipedia pages pointing to it (see the pages at Special:Whatlinkshere/Scioto Company for the answer to the latter).

[edit] Geography

Can someone fact-check the following: "Except for a small border with Perry Township (Brookside Estates) on the west, Worthington is completely surrounded by Columbus." I thought that Worthington bordered directly with Delaware county in the areas around WKHS and Smoky Row Road.
