List of post offices in Tennessee and their dates of operation will be helpful to genealogists and historians hoping to identify the location of a particular place name. [http://state.tn.us/tsla/history/places/postoff.htm Tennessee State Archives] has a list of the post offices. Users should be aware that the county listed is the county in which the post office was located at the time of its creation. Later changes in county boundary lines may have affected the home county of that post office. This list is based on records at National Archives listing postmaster appointments from 1832 to 1971 (see National Archives microfilm publications M1131 and M841). | List of post offices in Tennessee and their dates of operation will be helpful to genealogists and historians hoping to identify the location of a particular place name.
