Do you know of North Sparta ???

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

Our sources for North Sparta (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 North Sparta other than they indicate that North Sparta would be found somewhere in Livingston County, New York.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1832 and closed  in 1899.
