Morgan County Summary
Morgan County is located in the central part of the state of Indiana, in the United States. It is part of the Indianapolis metropolitan area and is bordered by Marion, Hendricks, Putnam, Johnson, and Shelby counties. The county seat is Martinsville.
History
Morgan County was formed in 1822 from portions of Johnson and Shelby counties. It was named for General Daniel Morgan, a Revolutionary War hero. The first settlers arrived in the area in the early 1800s, and the county was officially organized in 1822.
The county was largely agricultural in its early years, with corn, wheat, and livestock being the main products. The first railroad line was built in 1852, connecting Martinsville to Indianapolis. This allowed for the growth of industry in the county, and by the late 1800s, the county was home to several factories, including a glass factory, a furniture factory, and a paper mill.
In the early 1900s, the county experienced a population boom, as many people moved to the area to take advantage of the growing economy. This growth continued until the Great Depression, when the county's population began to decline.
