Macy was laid out in 1860 at the time the railroad arrived in the neighborhood.[5] The community was originally known as "Lincoln", but when it was discovered that there was already another Lincoln in Cass County, the name was changed in order to prevent confusion in the mail system.[6] The namesake of Macy was David Macy, president of the Indianapolis, Peru and Chicago Railway.[7] The post office at Macy has been in operation since 1880.[8]
