Do you know of Highland Station ???

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

Our sources for Highland 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 Highland Station other than they indicate that Highland Station would be found somewhere in Oakland County, Michigan.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1873 and closed  in 1903.
