The Garden Spot of Indiana

Flora's Station, on the Logansport, Crawfordsville and Southwestern Ry., was platted in 1872 for John Flora on land entered by him in 1829. Ino Post Office established 1872, changed to Flora in 1873. Also called Fountain City from flowing wells. Pikes Peak, ½ mile south and east had sawmill and shops until 1889. Near here was located a log cabin school, and in 1876 the first church, St. Paul's Lutheran, was built.
