History
SR 119 went as far south as Monticello, now that route is part of State Road 39.
The first path along part of the modern SR 119 roadway was the Plymouth-Goshen Trail. The trail was founded on October 19, 1835, to connect the county seats of Marshall County, Plymouth, and Elkhart County, Goshen. At this time counties built trails to connect county seats with other county seats. Surveyors places wooden posted at one mile interval along the route and documented the entire path.[4] In February 1851, the Plymouth Goshen Plank Road Company was founded and begin converting the trail to a plank road. The company placed toll barriers every six miles along the entire length of the road.[5] On March 18, 1932, the section of road between SR 19 and SR 15 became a state highway and the remaining sections of the trail remained as county roads or city streets. SR 119 was formed to connect SR 19 with SR 15 and the city of Goshen.[4][6][7][8]
