Welcome to Dome ...

So far, we found very little information about Dome. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Dome to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Dome - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Dome, please Contact Us.

While we don't have a date for the founding of Dome, you might consider that their post office opened in 1906.

Footnotes ...

<1>

We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Dome, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
