Doing Business in Orland, Indiana
Orland is recognized as the first settlement in Steuben County. Migrants from Vermont settled it in 1834, and it was first called the Vermont Settlement.
A post office was established in 1837. Orland was a stop on the Underground Railroad, and the Russell Brown home reportedly had a secret second-floor apartment that might have hidden 15 to 20 enslaved people.
The Fawn River State Fish Hatchery, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997, is part of the area's history.
