Warrington is a small, unincorporated community located in Hancock County, Indiana. This means it's a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town. It is part of Brown Township.

The Story of Warrington

Warrington was first planned out by a person named John Oldham. He created the first maps for the community in 1834. This process is called "platting."

Later, in 1849, a post office opened in Warrington. It helped people send and receive mail for many years. The post office stayed open until 1919, when it closed down.
