Do you know of Voltus ???

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

Our sources for Voltus (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 Voltus other than they indicate that Voltus would be found somewhere in Tioga County, Pennsylvania.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1892 and closed  in 1904.
