Do you know of Harvard ???

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

Our sources for Harvard (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 Harvard other than they indicate that Harvard would be found somewhere in Marion County, Florida.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened in 1884 and closed in 1895.
