=== Post Offices and Postmasters Database  ===


I just LOVE the [http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/post-offices/index-e.html Post Offices and Postmasters] database at the Library and Archives Canada. Using this database, you can type in a place name, and see the names of all the postmasters over the years. You can also see the year the post office was established, the Federal Electoral district the place is in, and the names, birth dates, and years of service for all the postmasters. You can also see what year the post office opened in a particular place.
