The following was copied directly from letters I have in my possession regarding obtaining Post Office information. This is dated 2002 I do not know if the information is still accurate.


Site Location Reports for Post Offices
All extant records of site location reports for post offices have been transferred by the Postal Service to the National Archives and Records Administration, 700 Pennsylvania Avenue, Northwest, Washington, DC 20408-0001.

The reports of site locations are forms completed and submitted by postmasters mostly in the period from 1845 until 1945, giving the location of their post offices and other geographical information. They typically show the location of post offices in relation to nearby post offices and transportation routes and facilities, and some reports show the location(s) in terms of legal land descriptions and/or small grid maps of the vicinity of the office.

The reports have been reproduced in Microfilm Publication M1126, Post Office Department Reports of Site Locations, 1837-1950, and copies for a specific post office or several post offices can be purchased from the Archives for a minimum fee of $10 for up to 20 pages (there are typically 1-10 pages per post office). For larger orders, the Archives can furnish positive copies of Microfilm Publication M1126 for $34 a roll. Each roll generally contains several counties within a state and there are 683 total rolls in the set.
