Martin County, County in southern Indiana, United States
Martin County covers 340 square miles of land with hills, forests, and waterways, including the East Fork of White River flowing through its territory.
The county was established on January 17, 1820, and received its name from Major John T. Martin from Newport, Kentucky, who contributed to regional development.
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division manages one-third of the county land, making it a center for military research and development.
The county contains two main population centers: the administrative seat of Shoals and the largest city of Loogootee on the western border.
Martin State Forest and sections of Hoosier National Forest occupy large portions of the county, providing extensive natural areas for recreation.
