Cleveland, West Virginia

Cleveland is an unincorporated community in Webster County, West Virginia, United States. Cleveland is located north of Webster Springs on West Virginia Route 20, along the Right Fork Little Kanawha River. Cleveland has a post office.

History

The first post office was established in 1853 and was named Buffalo Fork, after the small nearby stream that flows into the right fork of the Little Kanawha River.
In 1883 the post office was called "Point" because a shorter name was preferred for postal purposes. In 1885 the post office name was changed to Cleveland, in honor of Grover Cleveland, who was beginning his first term as President of the United States.
