Do you know of Holstein Mills ???

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

Our sources for Holstein Mills (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 Holstein Mills other than they indicate that Holstein Mills would be found somewhere in Smyth County, Virginia.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1879 and closed  in 1903.
