Interesting. I know there were at least two specimens said to be from that locale, and it seems the Minton field guide for Indiana considers them valid. Of course, there were old records for Corn Snakes, Coral Snakes, Southern and Western Hognose from Indiana, all of which are considered to be incorrectly labeled museum specimens.
This article (you may have seen it already) on questionable Kentucky reptiles is interesting. It briefly mentions the SW Indiana bull snakes, but also mentions bull snakes being collected in Tennessee along the Tennessee River?!
