Aix was a small, quiet community located in Union Township, Jasper County, Indiana. It was an "unincorporated community," which means it was a rural area that was never officially made into a town or city.
A Look Back: The History of Aix
A post office was opened in Aix in 1892. This was a place where people could send and receive mail. However, the post office closed its doors in 1909.
It is believed that the community of Aix was named after a city in France called Aix-en-Provence.
Today, if you visit the area where Aix used to be, you might find a veterinary service, which helps animals, a church, and just two houses.
