Wabash is an unincorporated community in Cass County, Nebraska, United States.[1]

History

A large share of the early settlers being natives of Indiana caused the name Wabash, after Wabash, Indiana, to be selected.[2] A post office was established at Wabash in 1886, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1965.[3]
