Do you know of Boulder Valley ???

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

Our sources for Boulder Valley (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 Boulder Valley other than they indicate that Boulder Valley would be found somewhere in Jefferson County, Montana.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1866 and closed  in 1897.
