HistoryLaGrange was founded in 1827 by Isaac Shelby, and was named for the Marquis de Lafayette's ancestral home in France. The community was laid out with eight streets and a hotel. The decline of riverboat trade and the decision to build the Wabash Railroad on the other side of the Wabash River led to the town's extinction.[1] A post office was established at LaGrange in 1828, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1835.[2] GeographyLaGrange was likely located at {{coord|40|22|28|N|87|05|24|W|type:city}}.
