Do you know of Fourche Dam ???

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

Our sources for Fourche Dam (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 Fourche Dam other than they indicate that Fourche Dam would be found somewhere in Pulaski County, Arkansas.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1874 and closed  in 1903.
