Do you know of Springfield ???

Our sources for Springfield (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Springfield other than they indicate that Springfield would be found somewhere in Franklin County, Indiana.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1818 and closed  in 1902.
