History
Coatesville was founded in the late 1860s. It was incorporated as a town in 1909.
A gas station was opened in downtown Coatesville in the early 1900s. By 1958 it was operated by Standard Oil. At one time, Coatesville had three gas stations, but as of 2020 it has none. The location of the town’s first gas station has been renovated into a replica of the Standard Oil station as it would have looked in the late 1950s.
On March 26, 1948 (Good Friday) a tornado destroyed most of the town, killing 14 residents. Damage and fatalities were widespread across west-central Indiana, and overall, 20 people perished.
