The name of the town was originally suggested to be Scholl-Goff, as the roads connected to the town go to Schollsville and Goffs Corner. After Maj. John N. Conkwright remarked "Is not this a grand view?", referencing the nearby Pilot Knob, a local storeowner suggested the name Pilot View. A post office was created for the town in 1893 but was closed in 1904.^[2]
