History

The exact date that Clearfield Township was incorporated is unknown. Pleasant View Township was designated by Congress on February 9, 1888. The township board met on February 23, 1893 and discussed the possibility of dividing Pleasant View into two Townships - Clearfield and Kingsley. There is no record of any action being taken. However, on July 9, 1894, it seemed to have been separated and Clearfield Township was in existence. [4]
