Official Website

Wabash County, along with Delaware County, was originally formed Jan. 1820 because it was the Wabash River drainage area.

The name "Wabash" is an English spelling of the earlier French name for the river, Ouabache. French traders derived the French version from the Indian name for the river, Wabashike (pronounced "Wah-bah-she-keh") (meaning "pure white".) Much of the river bottom is white limestone, now obscured by mud.
