We found mention of Buford as a post office, but can't determine its location - other than being located somewhere in Etowah County, Alabama.

It's common that the post office is named the same as the community in which it's located. In this case, we can't match this post office to any of the communities in our gazetteer.

The earliest mention that we've found of Buford was in the Business Atlas and Shippers' Guide dated 1895 (see the 'Miscellaneous References' section below).
