Do you know of Baxendale ???

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

Our sources for Baxendale (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 Baxendale other than they indicate that Baxendale would be found somewhere in Lewis and Clark County, Montana.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1891 and closed  in 1895.
