Do you know of Sequasett ???

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

Our sources for Sequasett (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 Sequasett other than they indicate that Sequasett would be found somewhere in Bristol County, Massachusetts.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1888 and closed  in 1889.
