Adding Hulette to Our Gazetteer ...

The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Hulette was in the document titled List of Post Offices from Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<3>

From that list, the Hulette post office opened in 1900.

We also found Hulette on a map titled Rand McNally Map of Kentucky (1911).

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 Hulette, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>If you're interested in how the shape of Kentucky's counties, including Lawrence, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
