Do you know of Peachridge ???

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

Our sources for Peachridge (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 Peachridge other than they indicate that Peachridge would be found somewhere in Oceana County, Michigan.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1896 and closed  in 1901.
