Named in the 1915 county history

The history of Clinton County was published 4 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

There have been two post offices in Adams Township. The first was at Sligo, established the 13th of March, 1844. This post office remained located at Sligo until the 8th of September, 1865, when it was removed to Ogden by order of the Post Office Department in order to avoid the expense of conveying the mail from the station at Ogden to and from Sligo, and to afford better mail facilities. The following are the names of the various Postmasters, and when appointed:

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Clinton County, Ohio, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
