Do you know of Still River ???

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

Our sources for Still River (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 Still River other than they indicate that Still River would be found somewhere in Litchfield County, Connecticut.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1901 and closed  in 1906.
