Welcome to Dorchester ...So far, we found very little information about Dorchester. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1> We've added Dorchester to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Dorchester - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Dorchester, please Contact Us. While we don't have the exact location of Dorchester , we believe that it would have been located within present day Gunnison County<2>. While we don't have a date for the founding of Dorchester, you might consider that their post office opened in 1900. Time Zone: The area where Dorchester was located is in the Mountain Time Zone (MST/MDT) and observes daylight saving time If Dorchester still existed, it would have been in the (970) area code.

When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future. The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Dorchester was in the document titled List of Post Offices from Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<3> For more details, see References and Mentions for Dorchester.
