Welcome to Callville ...

So far, we found very little information about Callville. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Callville to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Callville - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Callville, please Contact Us.

While we don't have the exact location of Callville , we believe that it would have been located within present day Clark County<2>.

Callville was founded in 1867.

Time Zone: The area where Callville was located is in the Pacific Time Zone (PST/PDT) and observes daylight saving time

Adding Callville to Our Gazetteer ...

As we work on our Gazetteer, we occasionally find mention of a community that is new to us. When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future.

The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Callville was in the document titled List of Post Offices from Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<3>

From that list, the Callville post office opened in 1867.

For more details, see References and Mentions for Callville.

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Callville, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>If you're interested in how the shape of Nevada's counties, including Clark, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
