Welcome! I am Sheri Bush, Coordinator of this county. If you have any questions, comments, complaints or wish to submit data to this site, please email me. I will try to answer your questions, though I do not do research for others. Any data you wish to submit, is most welcome and will be placed online as quickly as I can.
Jackson County was organized in 1812. It was named after General Andrew Jackson, the 7th President of the United States. Fort Vallonia was the first county seat, but was later moved to Brownstown. Brownstown remains the county seat today. The county is divided into 12 Townships which are; Brownstown, Carr, Driftwood, Grassy Fork, Hamilton, Jackson, Owen, Pershing, Redding, Salt Creek, Vernon and Washington.
It's neighboring counties are; Bartholomew, Brown, Jennings, Lawrence and Washington.

There are Indiana counties that are in need of adoption. If you are interested you can go to the Indiana TTTP site or to the main site of Trails To The Past. For FAQ information go to the Midwest North District of the Trails to the Past Project. There are states and counties throughout the U.S. looking for administrators. It is a great way to volunteer! You may submit data if you do not have the time to host a county or state. Your help will be greatly appreciated!
