Mansfield, Indiana

Mansfield (also called Mansfield Village, Dicksons Mills, Dixons Mills, Dublin or New Dublin) is an unincorporated community in Jackson Township, Parke County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.

The village prospered when a roller mill was built by James Kelsey and Francis Dickson in 1820.

As the milling industry expanded, the village grew to a thriving town of more than 300.

A sash mill and carding mill were added, and the little town gained a general store, blacksmith, cooperage and wagon maker, and a church and school were organized.
