Today I received an email from Jay Simpson. He had made inquiries to the USPS regarding the post office that existed in Woodland Valley for years (some of our older folks may remember it). He received this response and thought we would be interested. I know I found it interesting. Thanks so much for sending this, Jay!!
Mr. Simpson,
Here is the Postmaster list you requested for Woodland, New York. Sorry it took a little longer, some of the entries were difficult to verify with National Archives records.
