Welcome to Tuttle ...

From that list, the Tuttle post office opened in 1883.

We also found Tuttle in the book titled Business Atlas and Shippers' Guide (1895).

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Tuttle, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>If you're interested in how the shape of Colorado's counties, including Kit Carson, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
