POST OFFICES OF MEADE COUNTY

The following list came from a small booklet that listed all the Post Offices in Kansas. Meade County was established March 20, 1873; disappeared February 22, 1883, absorbed by Finney, Ford and Seward Counties; then re-established March 13, 1885. These were not all towns, and some of them didn't last long... some of them even moved around from one person's home to another... but they were used as an address for the people who got their mail there.
