Kyana

Kyana is an unincorporated community located on Indiana State Road 64 in Jackson Township, Dubois County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.[2]

Kyana was platted in 1883.[3] The town had its own zip code until 1980.[4] The town was an outgrowth of the construction of the Louisville, Evansville & St. Louis Railroad (now Norfolk Southern). Founded by the Louisville Mining & Manufacturing Company, it bears the abbreviation of its home state (Kentucky), and the termination of the state in which it is located.[5]

A post office was established at Kyana in 1882, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1982.[6]

Kyana was the site of a plane crash on August 28, 1948. A two-seat Aeronca training plane piloted by William Mullen, Jr. was flying at a low altitude when it suddenly dived into the ground in a field near Kyana. The passenger in the plane, Emil Prechtel of nearby Schnellville, died as a result of injuries from the crash. The pilot survived.[7]
