Do you know of Arch Beach ???

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

Our sources for Arch Beach (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 Arch Beach other than they indicate that Arch Beach would be found somewhere in Orange County, California.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1889 and closed  in 1894.
