Do you know of East Paterson ???

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

Our sources for East Paterson (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 East Paterson other than they indicate that East Paterson would be found somewhere in Bergen County, New Jersey.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1917 and closed  in 1974.
