Do you know of Molder ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Molder. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Molder.<1>

Our sources for Molder (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Molder other than they indicate that Molder would be found somewhere in Madison County, Alabama.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1895 and closed  in 1903.
