History

Indiana was established in 1816. It was thought with Forbes that the first non-indigenous people pioneer entered in the area that became the Fountain county in early 1823, and other people continued soon [7]. The Fountain county was established in a state law of December 30, 1825 formally, and the law became effective on April 1, 1826. The domain of the county was not changed afterwards either [8]. The county name was an officer of Kentucky and was named for James Fontaine killed in action in the defeat of the her mer happened on October 22, 1790 of the northwest Indian war [9]. In the battlefield, today's Fort Wayne was near.

 
Fountain county, 1876 maps

It was the building of the 2-story wooden frame composing type built to co-bottle ton in first county Government building 1827. Abraham Griffith took the first bill that was 335 dollars [n 1] for this construction. If a brick building was necessary, I was decided, and, in 1829 two years later, the construction plan of the new Government building was put up, but required a move of the county seat in a state law at the time. In the county seat, a thing as co-bottle ton was finally decided, and the brick county Government building was completed in 1833. The county Government building of the third generation was placed an order for in 1856 and I took 33,500 dollars [n 2] in 1857 and was completed. The first circuit court was opened in this building in January, 1860. However, a fire occurred on the same day, and, in the building, most of were destroyed. Architect Isaac Hodge loss designed the county Government building of the fourth generation and was completed in January, 1861. [n 3] [11] where the building costs were 54,624.05 dollar. [n 4] which the county Government building of the fifth generation that there was took 246,734 dollars from 1936 through 1937 now, and was built. Because this was declared when a building in front was not safe, I was rebuilt. Jacob loss brothers of Chicago undertook the construction, and Walter school of Lewis R Johnson and Lafayette designed it. I sprinkled it to the inner wall of the county Government building from 1937 through 1940, and Eugene Francis サベージ drew many frescos. The area of the fresco is 2,500 square feet (232m2) in total and draws a state of the reclamation in western Indiana [12].

The construction of ウォバッシュ and Erie Canal began in 1832 and spread southwest and was inaugurated to Lafayette in 1842. I reached the co-bottle ton in 1846, and the traffic in the county using the canal began in 1847. As for the last ship having passed this canal although the county inaugurated later's first railroad announced useless さを of the canal previously, it was in 1875 [13].

Made hole through the northern part from the east of the county where the county's first railroad was Toledo ウォバッシュ and western railroad (ウォバッシュ railroad in the back) and was extended to Attica in 1856. I passed through the west Warren county in the next year and reached to the state border with Illinois. I built it in 1855, and Indianapolis glow four building and Dan Building railroad (Indiana Bloomington and western railroad in the back) started it particularly, but was stopped for economy of the whole state in 1858. This line was completed by a different manager in 1870 and began the service of the train in 1871. I went along co-bottle ton, B da Bergh, the Hills rag in the Fountain county [14].
