Fredonia, Indiana

Fredonia is an unincorporated community in Crawford County, Indiana, United States.

[3]: 54  Although it was prominent in its early years — Crawford County's first brick building was constructed in Fredonia — an 1889 county history observed that the community was never prosperous, and "The old houses are fast tumbling down and going to decay".

[3]: 60  This lack of prosperity was due largely to its location: although it lies along the Ohio River, Fredonia has no landing, unlike other Crawford County settlements such as Leavenworth.

[3]: 54 A post office was established at Fredonia in 1819, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1965.
