Advise you research the development of Indiana counties, which was mostly a south to north progression of Indian purchases. Early settlements were also along the Wabash and Ohio Rivers.

I see that it would have been in the Wabash New Purchase area as of 1820, but I cannot find that district in the list of counties in the 1820 census on archive.org. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
