McCordsville

Profile
The town of McCordsville is named after the McCord family. Richard McCord was born in McCordsville in 1839. He was the son of Jacob McCord, who was a farmer and owned 160 acres in Hancock County. Today, McCordsville is the newest incorporated municipality in Hancock County. It exudes a rural, small town ambiance, but has an economic development approach which places it in an ideal position for residential and service-oriented business growth. One of the towns most attractive features is its established residential atmosphere—an excellent location for families! McCordsville is expected to experience large growth in this decade and beyond.
