A bit about Wabash:
The town of Wabash was platted in the spring of 1834 by Col. Hugh Hanna and Col. David Burr.
The name
Wabash
derives from a
Miami-Illinois
term for "water over white stones." The Wabash post office has been in operation since 1839. The Miami name reflected the clarity of the river in
Huntington County, Indiana
where the river bottom is
limestone
.
Wabash used a new type of
carbon arc light
invented by
Charles Brush
in 1870. On March 31, 1880, four 3,000-candle power lamps were suspended from the top of the courthouse. Two telegraph wires ran from the lamps to the courthouse basement, where they were connected to a generator powered by a 12-horsepower steam engine to provide power.
