Do you know of Belgrade Mills ???

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

Our sources for Belgrade Mills (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 Belgrade Mills other than they indicate that Belgrade Mills would be found somewhere in Kennebec County, Maine.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1829 and closed  in 1901.
