Do you know of Como Depot ???

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

Our sources for Como Depot (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 Como Depot other than they indicate that Como Depot would be found somewhere in Panola County, Mississippi.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1857 and closed  in 1906.
