Saint Henry is an unincorporated community in Cass Township, Dubois County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.[1]

History

[edit]

Saint Henry was platted about 1874. The town was originally called Henryville, but was changed to Saint Henry because there was already a Henryville in Indiana.[2]

A post office was established at Saint Henry in 1870, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1933.[3]
