Unincorporated community in Indiana, United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cloverland is an unincorporated community in Posey Township, Clay County, Indiana. It is part of the Terre Haute Metropolitan Statistical Area.
Cloverland is located at 39°30′05″N 87°13′53″W, about six miles west of the county seat, Brazil, and less than one mile east of the Vigo-Clay line. Cloverland is within the humid continental climate zone. The terrain is gently rolling and includes a small brook.
The town was platted in 1834 as a speculative venture by Terre Haute doctor Charles Modesitt. The town grew steadily with several general stores, a carpentry shop, and several other ventures. With the construction of the railroad, business activity shifted to nearby Brazil, and the town's population dwindled.[3] A post office was established at Cloverland in 1850, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1920.[4] Today, a church, a commercial building, and cluster of houses are all that remain.
