About Bicknell

Bicknell is a Knox County city laid out by John Bicknell in 1869 and incorporated as a town in 1907. The old name-and-founder story is still the cleanest way into the place: Bicknell was not named for a landscape feature or a railroad slogan, but for the person who put the town on the map. North Knox School Corporation serves the surrounding area, while the Bicknell branch of the Bicknell-Vigo Township Public Library gives the city a local stop for books and community information. Bicknell sits in northeastern Knox County, with its streets, school, and library giving the place its everyday outline.
