Do you know of South Louisville ???

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

Our sources for South Louisville (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 South Louisville other than they indicate that South Louisville would be found somewhere in Jefferson County, Kentucky.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1888 and closed  in 1894.
