Historical Markers in Noble County Indiana

The first project undertaken by the Historical Society was the erection of Historical Markers throughout Noble County. Martha Bushong wrote a wonderful account of the beginning of this project with photos and stories of each marker. She put this together in a book titled "Noble County Historical Markers." This book is on sale on our Publications page. Check out the Historical Markers Index below to Martha's 2007 book to see if your ancestors are mentioned.
