Do you know of Saint Just ???

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

Our sources for Saint Just (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 Saint Just other than they indicate that Saint Just would be found somewhere in Orange County, Virginia.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1884 and closed  in 1955.
