Paris is an unincorporated community in Jefferson and Jennings counties, Indiana, in the United States.

A post office called Paris was established in 1820, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1841. The community was named for Paris, in France.

While the Wikipedia entry on this Paris is "brief," (understatement), I found a much longer history on the web. It is best viewed as a website:
