Amo, Indiana
Amo (/ˈeɪmoʊ/ EY-mo) is a town in Clay Township, Hendricks County, Indiana, United States. The population was 408 at the 2020 census.
The town was laid out as Morristown in 1850 by Joseph Morris. The present name of Amo (meaning "I love" in Latin) was adopted in 1855. Amo was incorporated as a town in 1913.
The Amo THI & E Interurban Depot/Substation was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
In 2000, the town celebrated its sesquicentennial anniversary in combination with the Hoosier Millennium celebration. The town council authorized a contest to design and adopt the official "Town Seal" open to all residents and any student enrolled in a public institution within the town boundaries of Amo. Officials from the Hoosier Millennium committee at the 500 Festival Parade in downtown Indianapolis reviewed the forty-two submissions on May 27, 2000, and selected that of town resident Randy L. Potts.
On June 3, 2000, U.S. Congressman and Gubernatorial candidate David M. McIntosh presented the finalized seal to the Amo Town Board during the Amo Annual Fish Fry.
The seal pictures the ol' Mill building with Mill Creek running to the left of the structure. A railroad track lies running to the skyline of Indianapolis next to a corn field. The seal is finalized with a freshly plowed field depicting the agricultural influence of the community. The outer ring of the seal states, "Town of Amo" and the year "1850" representing the town's founding.
According to the 2010 census, Amo has a total area of 0.63 square miles (1.63 km2), all land.
The Vandalia Trail is a multipurpose rail trail used for recreational activities such as hiking, off-road bicycling, and horseback riding. It is currently, as of 2011[update], under development. The trail is planned to be connected to, and become part of, the National Road Heritage Trail, extending approximately 150 miles from Terre Haute to Richmond using the former Pennsylvania and Vandalia rail corridors, wherever possible, and closely follow the Historic National Road for much of its route. The three-mile (4.8 km) section connecting Amo to Coatesville is maintained by the Hendricks County Parks and Recreation and the Hendricks County Trail Association.
