Goblesville is a small, unincorporated community located in Clear Creek Township, within Huntington County, in the state of Indiana. Being "unincorporated" means it's a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town. Instead, it's governed by the county or township.

A Look Back: The History of Goblesville

Goblesville began in the 1800s, growing around a sawmill. This sawmill was owned by a man named John Gobble. He was important because the community was named after him!

The Post Office

A post office opened in Goblesville in 1883. This was a big deal because it made it easier for people to send and receive mail. It helped the community stay connected. The post office served the area for many years. However, it eventually closed down in 1905.
