Lindy, Nebraska : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lindy, Nebraska
Lindy is an unincorporated community located on the Santee Sioux Reservation in Knox County, in the northeastern part of the state of Nebraska in the Midwestern United States. It has a population of 13. ==History==
Lindy was established late in the state's history. The townsite was surveyed in 1928, in response to demand for a local marketing and shopping center.〔 Development was further encouraged by a rumor, which later proved unfounded, suggesting that a railroad line might be built through the area.〔 The new town was named after Charles Lindbergh, nicknamed "Lucky Lindy", who the year before had made his celebrated non-stop solo flight from New York to Paris.〔 During its heyday, Lindy had a number of businesses, including a hardware store, a barbershop, an ice-cream parlor, a blacksmith shop, and an electrical-appliances shop.〔 It also boasted a large hall with a full basement for a garage, a dance hall and movie theater on the second floor, and office and living space on the third. This building was dismantled in 1944.〔 From 1944 to 1958, the local Addison Telephone Company operated out of Lindy.〔 In later years, Lindy's population declined and its businesses closed. In 1978, it had a population of 38. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the town's feed store, general store, and gas pumps were shut down or moved away. By 2002, there were 13 residents.〔
