Do you know of Snell ???

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

Our sources for Snell (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 Snell other than they indicate that Snell would be found somewhere in Pulaski County, Kentucky.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1908 and closed  in 1935.
