Indian Trail Real Estate and Homes - History

Indian Trail's history is quite similar to the history of many of the other towns and cities in and around Union County.  As the town's name suggests, the area known today as Indian Trail was originally a trading route frequented by Native Americans during the 1600s and 1700s.  The trading route connected the Waxhaw Indian settlement to Petersburg, Virginia.  It was not until the mid 1700s that white settlers arrived in the area.  Most of the white settlers who came to the area were Scotch-Irish and German settlers, and the first land grants were issued in the area in 1752.

In 1861, Indian Trail's first post office was established, but it would only serve the town for approximately five years before being discontinued.  The post office would reopen in 1870 and stay in business until modern times, much like the commercial block established in 1912, which still stands today.  Throughout the 1800s, Indian Trail would continue to develop and the railroad that was built in 1874 acted as a catalyst to the town's progress.  Agriculture and farming played a big role in the development of Indian Trail and, in the latter 1800s, the town also became known for gold mining.

Schools, churches, and stores started to crop-up throughout the early 1900s and it would not be long before the town was incorporated.  When Indian Trail was incorporated in 1907, its city limits were bound to an area extending one-half mile in radius from a point along the railroad tracks.  Since then, the town has grown to a total area of over 15 square miles.  Today, residents and visitors of Indian Trail can learn more about the town's history in the Corner Museum, which is located at the Indian Trail Town Hall.
