Unincorporated towns

The original town was founded in 1815. It was incorporated as a town in 1876.[9] The village, on the East Fork of the Whitewater River, was known for its buggy-making operations in the late 1800s.

Notable natives included author James Maurice Thompson, who wrote "Alice of Old Vincennes." Women's suffrage pioneer Ida Husted Harper was born in Fairfield.

The town was inundated by a federal reservoir project in the late 1960s.

New Fairfield was founded in the early 1970s after construction began on a federal reservoir project in the valley of the East Fork of the Whitewater River.

The town exists on land once owned by Carl Huber and Herschel Klein.

It contains no commerce or government agencies.
