Nashville is a former unincorporated community in Brown Township, Hancock County, Indiana. It was located two miles northwest of Warrington, Indiana along N. Nashville Road.

History

Nashville was laid out and platted in 1834 with 32 lots. Some stores and blacksmith shops were erected. However, a 1916 book on the county's history reports that the stores "disappeared long ago", though the blacksmith shops lasted longer, and all that was left of the community by then was a few houses.
