Named for the Bluffs Above the Wabash

Bluffton was founded in 1838 as the seat of Wells County, itself created in 1835 and named for Indian agent William Wells, son-in-law of Miami chief Little Turtle. The town takes its own name from the river bluffs along the Wabash River near the original town site -- early settlement in the area dates to Dr. Joseph Knox's 1829 cabin a few miles downstream and Allen Norcross's 1831 homestead on the opposite bank.

River-Town Plumbing Across Two Centuries

A Wabash River town founded in 1838 has building stock spanning nearly two centuries, and Bluffton's roughly 10,308 residents live in a mix of that river-town core and newer development further from the bluffs. Older homes near the historic downtown can still carry supply lines installed well before modern plumbing codes existed.
