Borden Indiana - History and Legacy and a Very Generous Citizen

This tells of how a small-town resident built a fine non-traditional learning facility and helped a community learn, grow and thrive. This is the story of New Providence, Indiana and how it grew into the present-day Borden, Indiana. It features the beauty of the surrounding hills during a dynamic Autumn season.

    My Daddy was born in Borden in 1911. His last name was Farnsley and his mother was Waggoner Farnsley. Many of our families are buried in Walnut Hill Cemetery. I just laid my husband to rest there 4 months ago and will one day join him there. I never heard it called anything other than Borden. My Dad's birth certificate states he was born in Borden. Interesting.

    Hello and thank you for your comment. I completely agree with you. It really was unofficially renamed from New Providence to Borden in the late 1880s after the Borden Institute was established. This is why we have all known it only as Borden. The “Official” renaming with respect to the United States Postal Service and zip code happened on December 29, 1994. To you and me, it was Borden all along. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your point. All the best, - Robert

    Very nicely done Robert. I like the way you make your videos in the documentary style. I’ve got to do more of that myself. And yes the foliage did look very nice. 🍁

    Nice job as always Mr. Snyder. I had heard of Borden Indiana but did not know it was previously known under a different name and that name change was just like 30 years ago. Very interesting. Great shots of all the tree color in the last few minutes.

    Since I live here I can comment that fall is nice around here except for the roads are filled with kentuckians who can't drive who are going to Huber's. We should charge them 500% more to cross the river
