History

Sanders was originally known as Limestone, and under the latter name was platted in 1892.[2] The community was named after the Sanders family of settlers.[3]

A post office was established under the name Sanders in 1893, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1912.[4]

Many descendants of the original inhabitants of the town remain, and Sanders continues to be a distinct community within Monroe County, Indiana.

Current economic activity in Sanders includes the Indiana Limestone Company,[5] Bloomington String Instruments,[6] Sanders Pentecostal Church,[7][8] and a renovation of the former Hay's Market[9][10] into guest housing for the nearby Whippoorwill Hill farm[11] wedding and event venue is ongoing.[12]
