Ashippun is a town in Dodge County, Wisconsin, United States. The census-designated place of Ashippun and unincorporated communities of Alderley and Old Ashippun are located in the town. The population was 2,308 at the 2000 census. The primary community area is actually split into two parts, Ashippun and Old Ashippun. Old Ashippun was the original location, but when the first railroad was built several miles away, a large portion of the community relocated, as occurred with nearby Lebanon. ==Name origin== The name ''Ashippun'' is of Ojibwe origin. It is derived from ''ajiopan'' "decayed lungs".〔Verwyst, Chrysostom. 1892. "(Geographical Names in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan, Having a Chippewa Origin )". ''Collections of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin'' 12: 390–398.〕 Another theory derives the name from the Indian word for "raccoon", which is what the Indians called the river flowing through the eastern part of the town.〔'Indian Names on Wisconsin's Map,' Virgil C. Vogel, University of Wisconsin Press: 1991, Names from Fauna, pg. 148〕
