Do you know of Jennings Falls ???

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

Our sources for Jennings Falls (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 Jennings Falls other than they indicate that Jennings Falls would be found somewhere in Yell County, Arkansas.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1872 and closed  in 1914.
