Do you know of Walnut Tree ???

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

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

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1857 and closed  in 1925.
