Lockport is an unincorporated community in Adams Township, Carroll County, Indiana. It is part of the Lafayette, Indiana Metropolitan Statistical Area.

History

A post office was established at Lockport in 1838, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1904.[3] The birth of the town, and its name, are related to the set of lock gates that one would have encountered on the Wabash and Erie Canal.[4][5]

Geography

Lockport is located less than half a mile northwest of the Wabash River. Burnetts Creek flows along the east side of town.
