  1. Hi, I am glad that you took an interest in Wabash County. There is also a great Miami Indain heritage in Wabash and the surounding counties. You should check into The Seven Pillars, Hanging Rock, and The Salamonie Forrest State Park.

    My Mother was from Madison Indiana. Jefferson County has much to explore. My great Aunt Jean was a tour guid there I can give you names and more about Madison if you would like. I like your site and what you are doing. Keep up the good work and task of documenting Indiana.
    G.K.Jolly and I go by Kevin (parents choice).

  2. When I retired, I started a project to drive all of the federal and state highways in Indiana (not politically correct, I know – just me in my pick up truck, burning fosil fuel. But I’m a child of the 50′s.). I’m about 80% complete. I appreciate web sites like this that satisify my curiosity about what I’ve seen.

    Wow, Mike! That’s quite an achievement! Glad little Indiana can help!
