Warren County Indiana Warrant Search

Warren County, Indiana Warren County is a county in western Indiana which lies between the Illinois border and the Wabash River. Prior to the arrival of non-indigenous settlers in the early 19th century, the area was inhabited by several Native American tribes. The county was officially established in 1827 and was the 55th county in Indiana; the 92nd and final county was established in 1859. The county seat is Williamsport.According to the 2000 census, the population was 8,419 with 3,219 households; the 2009 population estimate is 8,491. It is one of the most rural counties in the state, with the third smallest population and the lowest population density at about 23 people per square mile. The county has four incorporated towns with a total population of about 3,000 and also has many small unincorporated communities. It is divided into twelve townships which provide local services to the residents.Much of the land is given over to agriculture, especially on the open prairie to the north and west; the county's farmland is among the most productive in the state. Nearer the river along the southeastern border the land has many hills, valleys and tributary streams and is more heavily wooded. Agriculture, manufacturing, government and health care each provide substantial portions of the jobs in the county; the three elementary schools and one high school provide both education and employment. Four Indiana state roads cross the county, as well as two U.S. Routes and one major railroad line. History In the centuries before the arrival of European settlers, the area that became Warren County was on the boundary between the Miami and Kickapoo tribes. By the late 18th century, many of the Miami had moved further south; most of Indiana north of the Wabash was then occupied by the Potawatomi people. The first non-indigenous settler in the area was probably Zachariah Cicott, a French-Canadian who first traded with the Kickapoo and Potawatomi people around 1802. Cicott served as a scout for General William Henry Harrison who took an army from Vincennes to the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811; the trail taken by Harrison's army passed through Warren County on its way to and from Tippecanoe County. Following the War of 1812, Cicott built a log house in 1817 at the location where he later founded the town of Independence. Other settlers followed, but probably not until around 1822.The county was established on March 1, 1827 by the Indiana General Assembly. It was named for Dr. Joseph Warren, killed in 1775 at the Battle of Bunker Hill, in which he fought as a private because his commission as a general had not yet taken effect. The short-lived town of Warrenton was the original Warren County seat, chosen by commissioners in March 1828; the next year an act was passed calling for it to be relocated, and in June 1829 it was moved to Williamsport.The first county courthouse was a log house in the original county seat of Warrenton; it belonged to (and was occupied by) Enoch Farmer, one of the county's earliest settlers. When the county seat moved to Williamsport, a log house belonging to founder William Harrison served this purpose for several years. The first purpose-built courthouse was completed in 1835 at a cost of $2000; in 1872 it was replaced with a new building that cost $48,000. The third courthouse was built in 1886, in the new section of town which had formed because of the newly-constructed railroad. That building burned in 1907, and the fourth and current Warren County courthouse was completed on the same site in 1908 at a cost of $115,000.When the county was first established, the Wabash River was vital to transportation and shipping. Zachariah Cicott traded up and down the river starting in the early 19th century; and cities like Attica, Perrysville, Baltimore and Williamsport were founded near the river's banks and flourished because of it. In the 1840s, the Wabash and Erie Canal began to operate and provided even broader shipping opportunities despite certain problems, but this tended to exclude cities on the 'wrong side' of the river; the canal was on the Fountain County side, and towns like Baltimore dwindled as a result. Some towns, though, like Williamsport and Perrysville, managed to participate in canal traffic through the use of side-cuts which brought traffic from the canal across the river. When railroads began to appear in the 1850s, they in turn superseded the canal and made it possible for towns to flourish without river access.The Potawatomi Trail of Death involved the forced removal of about 860 Potawatomi Indians from Indiana to Kansas in 1838. On September 14 of that year, the group camped near Williamsport, and on the September 15 they camped in the southwestern part of the county before moving into Illinois.Trains began running on portions of the Toledo, Wabash and Western Railway in 1856, and the railroad was finished through the county in 1857; it later became part of the Wabash Railroad. In 1869 the Indianapolis, Bloomington and Western Railway was built across Mound Township in the southern part of the county. In 1872, the coal branch of the Chicago, Danville and Vincennes Railroad (known as the 'Pumpkin Vine Railroad') was built from Bismarck, Illinois southeast through Warren County to reach the coal mines south of Covington; however, this railroad was only in use for a few years before being removed. The Chicago, Attica and Southern Railroad operated a north-south line through the eastern part of the county from the early 1920s through the mid-1940s, connecting the county with the Chicago area.After reaching a peak in the late 19th century, the county's population generally receded during the 20th in common with much of the rural Midwest, and small towns that at the turn of the 20th century were active and commercial began to diminish. The widespread adoption of the automobile in the 1920s undercut small town businesses, threatened further by the Great Depression of the 1930s. World War II and the economic revival of the late '40s and '50s drew people to better jobs in growing regional cities and further diminished the small towns. The population shrank again in the 1980s due largely to the effects of the 'farm crisis' of low crop prices, high farmer debt and other economic causes.The first county fair involved both Fountain and Warren counties and was held at Independence on September 6 and 7, 1853. In following years, the fair was held in Fountain County, and participation by Warren County farmers diminished. In 1856, farmers in the northern part of the county held a fair just east of Pine Village, and this continued each year through 1864. West Lebanon became the next site of the county fair, and it ran successfully through 1883; the fairgrounds just to the northwest of town were well-developed. Later the fair was held at the county seat of Williamsport, and this continues through the present day.One location in the county, near the small town of Kramer, once had an international reputation: the Hotel Mudlavia. Built in 1890 at a cost of $250,000, it drew guests from all over the world to the nearby natural springs that were said to have healing qualities. People such as James Whitcomb Riley, John L. Sullivan and Harry Lauder are known to have stayed at the hotel, which burned down in 1920. Later, water from the springs was bottled and sold by the Indianapolis-based Cameron Springs company, which was acquired by the Perrier Group of America in 2000 for about $10.5 million. As of 2008 the water was still being sold and was marketed under a variety of names.James Frank Hanly, who was the Governor of Indiana from 1905 to 1909, lived in Williamsport from 1879 to 1896 and joined a local law office in 1889. He is buried at Hillside Cemetery on the northeast side of Williamsport. Geography The Wabash River, coming out of Tippecanoe County to the east, defines the southeastern border of the county where the terrain is hilly and wooded areas are common; Fountain County lies across the river. By contrast, the northwest region consists mainly of flat prairie farmland; this continues in Benton County to the north. Along the western side of the county is the border with Vermilion County, Illinois. The small southern border is shared with the north end of the similarly-named Indiana county of Vermillion. The state capital of Indianapolis lies about 70 miles (110 km) to the southeast.The highest free-falling waterfall in the state, Williamsport Falls, is located in downtown Williamsport. Northeast of Independence is the Black Rock Barrens Nature Preserve, a rare siltstone glade area that along with the adjacent Weiler-Leopold Nature Reserve supports a diversity of flora. Big Pine Creek, the county's largest waterway after the Wabash River, is designated by the Indiana DNR as a scenic canoe trail and passes near Fall Creek Gorge Nature Preserve, an area of cascades and potholes.According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 366.60 square miles (949.5 km2); 364.88 square miles (945.0 km2) is land and 1.72 square miles (4.5 km2) (or about 0.5%) is water. Elevations in the county range from 480 feet (150 m) to 830 feet (250 m) above sea level. The land consists mostly of various forms of silt loam conducive to agriculture. Incorporated towns There are four incorporated towns in the county. The largest is the county seat of Williamsport which is on the banks of the Wabash River in the eastern part of the county, just downstream of Attica (on the opposite side of the river in Fountain County); in the year 2000 its population was 1,935 — nearly one-fourth of the county's total population. West Lebanon is about 5 miles (8.0 km) west of Williamsport on State Road 28, with a population of 793. The town of Pine Village lies about 11 miles (18 km) to the north of Williamsport where State Road 55 intersects State Road 26, near the northern edge of the county; 255 people live in Pine Village. State Line City is in the southwestern part of the county at the Illinois state line, hence its name; a portion of the town extends across the state line and is known as Illiana. State Line City is the smallest of the towns, with a population of 141. Unincorporated towns There are over a dozen small towns in Warren County that were never incorporated, but were nevertheless centers of activity in the earlier days. Now they consist mostly of dwellings, though some have churches, and a few still have small businesses. For example, the town of Stewart consists mainly of a grain processing facility and a single residence; the town of Johnsonville has a church and a handful of residences. Foster includes a motel along with a several houses, and Marshfield has an automotive body repair shop and a grain elevator, as well as a church. The rest, listed below, are almost entirely residential. Extinct towns Some towns did not survive for one reason or another. The river town of Baltimore thrived and was a major center of trade in the county until the river was overshadowed by the railroad for purposes of trade and transportation; a single house, built long after the town's heyday, is all that now remains. The early settlement of Warrenton had a promising start as the first county seat, but when a better location was found, the town began to wane before it had a chance to become well-established, and no trace is left.Chesapeake was the first town in Steuben Township, but faded away so early that even an 1883 county history has little to say on the subject. The town of Brisco was never very large, though it did have a school house from the 1850s through the 1920s; but by the end of the 20th century the town was gone. Likewise, Chatterton had a school, a store, and a post office; but now it has disappeared, though the name continues to appear on maps.Some towns were planned but did not develop. Dresser was never much more than a collection of houses, though it did have a post office for a few years around the turn of the 20th century. The towns of Kickapoo, Locust Grove, Sloan and Walnut Grove were similar in this respect. Point Pleasant never developed much beyond the founder's residence and a liquor store, and was later described as a 'paper town'. Townships When the county was formed in 1827, it was divided into four townships: Medina, Mound, Pike and Warren. Over the following decades, many changes were made to the township borders and eight new townships were created. Washington was the first of these to be formed, in 1830; Steuben followed in 1834. Liberty was formed in 1843, Adams in 1848, then Jordan in 1850. Pine and Prairie were also formed. Kent was the last to be created, in 1864. As of the year 2000, Prairie Township has the lowest population density at 6.1 people per square mile; it covers more area than any of the other townships — nearly 50 square miles (130 km2) — and contains no incorporated towns. The highest density is in Washington Township which has 123 people per square mile; it includes Williamsport, the county's largest town, and covers only about 20 square miles (52 km2). Transportation There are no interstate highways in Warren County, although Interstate 74 passes less than half a mile (less than one kilometer) from the southern border. U.S. Route 41 enters from Benton County to the north and runs through the center of Warren County, veering to the east and crossing the Wabash River between Williamsport and Attica before continuing south. U.S. Route 136 passes through the far southern part of the county on its route between Covington and Danville, Illinois.In the north part of the county, Indiana State Road 26 begins at the Illinois border and passes through the town of Pine Village, where it intersects State Road 55 on its way from Oxford in the north to Attica in the south; State Road 26 continues east through Lafayette and on to the Ohio border. Likewise, State Road 28 runs across the state from Illinois to Ohio; it connects West Lebanon with Williamsport and continues east through Attica.The four-lane divided State Road 63 runs south from its northern terminus at U.S. Route 41 near the center of the county; both reach Terre Haute about 60 miles (97 km) to the south, but while Route 41 crosses to the east side of the river, State Road 63 remains on the west side. Construction on the new State Road 63 began in the late 1960s and was completed by the early 1980s. The two-lane State Road 263 is a part of the original route of State Road 63 and forms a 13-mile (21 km) business route that leaves its parent route, passes through West Lebanon and along the river, then rejoins its parent near the south edge of the county.A small portion of State Road 352 lies in the far northwestern corner of the county, following the county and state border north from State Road 26 for only about a mile before leaving Warren County and entering Benton County on its way through the small town of Ambia. Railroads A Norfolk Southern Railway route connecting Danville, Illinois with the city of Lafayette is the county's busiest rail line, carrying about 45 freight trains each day. It enters Warren County at State Line City and passes northeast through the communities of Johnsonville, Marshfield, West Lebanon and Williamsport before exiting the county at Attica. Two short-line railroads operate less frequently. The Bee Line Railroad is used principally for agricultural transportation and runs approximately 10 miles (16 km) from Stewart north through Tab and into southern Benton County where it joins the Kankakee, Beaverville and Southern. The 6-mile (9.7 km) Vermilion Valley Railroad serves the Flex-N-Gate factory near Covington and runs west from the plant through the town of Foster to meet a CSX line in Danville. Economy Warren County's economy is supported by a labor force of approximately 4,815 workers with an unemployment rate in July 2010 of 8.8%. Farming is a significant part of the economy, employing approximately 14% of the county's workers and supporting grain elevators in most towns, where in some cases the elevator is the town's only formal business. Warren's farm land is highly productive and has greater crop yields per acre than over 90% of the state's other counties. In 2009, 94,700 acres (38,300 ha) of corn was planted and 93,100 acres (37,700 ha) acres harvested, yielding an average of 187 bushels per acre for a total corn production of 17.4 million bushels. Approximately 72,000 acres (29,000 ha) of soybeans were planted, yielding 55 bushels per acre for a total of 3.96 million bushels. Farmers also grew small amounts of hay (3,700 acres) and winter wheat, and held 3,600 head of cattle.Fourteen percent of the labor force work in the government sector for state and county services, schools, etc.; in the non-government sector, manufacturing is the largest industry at about 17% of the labor force. The county's largest industrial employers include Flex-N-Gate, an automobile parts assembly and warehouse facility occupying the 750-acre (300 ha) former Olin site near Covington; TMF Center, GL Technologies and Kuri-Tec facilities in Williamsport; and the Tru-Flex Metal Hose and Dyna-Fab facilities in West Lebanon. St. Vincent Hospital in Williamsport is also an important local employer.Larger local economies in the more populous counties to the east and west offer additional employment and commerce, particularly in the cities of Lafayette and West Lafayette in Tippecanoe County and the city of Danville in Vermilion County, Illinois. Education The county's four public schools are administered by the Metropolitan School District of Warren County. There is one junior-senior school in the system: Seeger Memorial Junior-Senior High School north of West Lebanon, built in 1957 as part of the school consolidation effort. Seeger served 634 students during the 2009–10 school year; there were 90 graduates the previous year. There are three elementary schools. Warren Central Elementary School is co-located with Seeger and served 310 students during the 2009–10 school year, while Williamsport Elementary School served 182 students and Pine Village Elementary School served 131 students.There are no colleges or universities within Warren County. Danville Area Community College is a public two-year college located in neighboring Vermilion County, Illinois, about 20 miles (32 km) southwest of Williamsport. Purdue University is a four-year university approximately 20 miles (32 km) northeast in Tippecanoe County. The University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign is about 50 miles (80 km) to the west.The towns of Williamsport and West Lebanon both have public libraries. The Williamsport-Washington Township Public Library was built in 2002 and replaced the town's 1917 Carnegie library; the West Lebanon-Pike Township Public Library is housed in the original 1916 Carnegie building which was expanded in 2006. Health care There is one hospital in Warren County. St. Vincent Williamsport Hospital is a 16-bed acute care facility that is operated by St. Vincent Health, which is based in Indianapolis. The hospital includes a 24-hour emergency medical service and ambulance service. Williamsport also has a nursing home; 'The Waters of Williamsport', a 96-bed facility, provides health care and rehabilitation services designed primarily for seniors. Government The county government is a constitutional body, and is granted specific powers by the Constitution of Indiana, and by the Indiana Code.County Council: The county council is the legislative branch of the county government and controls all the spending and revenue collection in the county. Representatives are elected from county districts. The council members serve four year terms. They are responsible for setting salaries, the annual budget, and special spending. The council also has limited authority to impose local taxes, in the form of an income and property tax that is subject to state level approval, excise taxes, and service taxes.Board of Commissioners: The executive body of the county is made of a board of commissioners. The commissioners are elected county-wide, in staggered terms, and each serves a four-year term. One of the commissioners, typically the most senior, serves as president. The commissioners are charged with executing the acts legislated by the council, collecting revenue, and managing the day-to-day functions of the county government.Court: The county maintains a small claims court that can handle some civil cases. The judge on the court is elected to a term of four years and must be a member of the Indiana Bar Association. The judge is assisted by a constable who is also elected to a four-year term. In some cases, court decisions can be appealed to the state level circuit court.County officials: The county has several other elected offices, including sheriff, coroner, auditor, treasurer, recorder, surveyor, and circuit court clerk. Each of these elected officers serves a term of four years and oversees a different part of county government. Members elected to county government positions are required to declare party affiliations and to be residents of the county.Township government: Each of the townships has a trustee who administers rural fire protection and ambulance service, provides poor relief, manages cemetery care, performs farm assessment, and so on. The trustee is assisted in these duties by a three-member township board. The trustees and board members are elected to four-year terms.For 2010 the county budgeted approximately $2.2 million for the district's schools and $2.8 million for other county operations and services, for a total annual budget of approximately $5 million.
