Do you know of Caledonia Station ???

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

Our sources for Caledonia Station (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 Caledonia Station other than they indicate that Caledonia Station would be found somewhere in Kent County, Michigan.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1870 and closed  in 1894.
