Do you know of Phone ???

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

Our sources for Phone (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 Phone other than they indicate that Phone would be found somewhere in Goochland County, Virginia.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1898 and closed  in 1905.

Miscellaneous References and Mentions for Phone ...

Found in a comprehensive list of Post Offices that was created by Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<2>
