Maple Grove 129 July 1854Josiah N. CheneyA Post Office has been established at Maple grove(sic) and J.N. Cheny appointed Post master. The office is kept at the store of L.C. Harrington & Co. Another office is needed at Clark's mills(sic), and petitions for its establishment have been sent to the department. The rapid increase of population makes it necessary to increase mail facilities and several new offices could be established at points which would add to the convenience of the people and the income of the department.
