About Oolitic

Oolitic is a Lawrence County town straddling Indian Creek and Shawswick Townships, with a name that hints at the quarry country around Bedford. The town was platted by Bedford Quarries Company on March 23, 1896, and incorporated in 1900. That gives Oolitic a clear beginning: quarry-company planning followed by its own town government. Oolitic is southern Indiana with a two-township map and a name tied to the quarry country, giving the place a stronger local handle than its short civic story suggests.
