Epsom is an unincorporated community in Bogard Township, Daviess County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.
The first settlement at Epsom was made about 1815.[1] The community took its name from a nearby well containing water which tasted of epsom salts.[2]
A post office was established at Epsom in 1856, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1905.[3]
