New Harmony was the home of Thomas Say from 1826 until his death in 1834. Say is considered the Father of North American Entomology, the science and study of insects. Say was living in New Harmony, in Posey County, when he first described the Say’s Firefly (Pyractomena angulata), in 1826. Say’s Firefly became Indiana’s state insect in 2018.
