Hmmm... The list appears to be about the county designations used in archaeological site numbers.  I'm not sure that makes them the official abbreviations, nor would a typical Hoosier know about them.  The page is linked from here:
http://www.in.gov/dnr/historic/3668.htm

I found a completely different set of abbreviations used in County Formation Maps, on various sites, such as this one:
http://www.mapofus.org/indiana/

Not sure if either set are official, but the second set at least seems more sensible.

Thanks.  I hadn't heard that before.  Spec somewhere?
