Do you know of Chalmers ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Chalmers. 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 Chalmers.<1>

Our sources for Chalmers (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 Chalmers other than they indicate that Chalmers would be found somewhere in Saline County, Arkansas.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1904 and closed  in 1909.
