Huntington County was organized effective December 2, 1834 and Captain
Elias Murray, then a member of the Legislature, proposed the name.
Huntington is the County Seat and General Tipton was the original proprietor of
the land
in which Captain Murray was one of the first settlers; by 1849 it contained
150 houses and had a population of 700.
The Wabash & Erie Canal cut through our county in 1834 and was a major
economic factor in european settlement and early development.
According to the Society of Indiana Pioneers, an individual was a pioneer of the
county if they resided there on or before December 31, 1840.
