Do you know of Bleach ???

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

Our sources for Bleach (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 Bleach other than they indicate that Bleach would be found somewhere in Westchester County, New York.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1887 and closed  in 1892.

Miscellaneous References and Mentions for Bleach ...
