Hindostan Falls is an extinct unincorporated community in Center Township, Martin County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.

The settlement sat along the original stagecoach route between New Albany and Vincennes and was one of the only roads in the new state of Indiana, which had been a territory until 1816.

The surge of population toward new land on the Indiana and Illinois frontiers, as well as Hindostan's location along the stagecoach route, meant that it was constantly open to carriers of disease.

Situated along rivers for the purpose of easy transportation, towns were often built on flood plains that bred insects in huge numbers.

According to rumor, a county tax collector had several thousand dollars of revenue in his possession when he fell ill during the epidemic.

He was thought to have buried the money (gold and silver coins) in an iron pot for safe-keeping until the illness passed.
