Do you know of Memory ???

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

Our sources for Memory (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 Memory other than they indicate that Memory would be found somewhere in Rutherford County, North Carolina.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1883 and closed  in 1904.

Miscellaneous References and Mentions for Memory ...

Found in a comprehensive list of Post Offices that was created by Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<2>
