Do you know of Baville ???

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

Our sources for Baville (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 Baville other than they indicate that Baville would be found somewhere in Amador County, California.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened in 1886 and closed in 1894.
