Cary, Miami County, Indiana

Cary was a community, now extinct, in Harrison Township, Miami County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.

History

Cary was home to a society of both Wesleyan Methodists and Quakers.[1] The Pan Handle Railroad being built a mile away from the community and the founding of the nearby town of Amboy led to Cary becoming a ghost town.[2]

A post office was established at Cary in 1858, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1868.[3]

gollark: I've simulated a manager! The thing values code length over function, so it just produces long nonfunctional but syntactically valid code.
gollark: I may need to change the fitness function. The code is actually getting worse than the starting stuff I put in.
gollark: Second-generation code example:`reint '5l,world'`
