Snow Hill, Miami County, Indiana

Snow Hill was a community, now extinct, in Harrison Township, Miami County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.

History

Snow Hill was laid out in 1853 by Jacob Miller and Elijah Lieurance.[1] In its heyday, the town had a saw mill, a blacksmith shop, a cabinet shop, and a general store. When the Pan Handle Railroad was built in Miami County, it was not extended to Snow Hill, and the community became a ghost town.[2]
