Do you know of Sherlock ???

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

Our sources for Sherlock (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 Sherlock other than they indicate that Sherlock would be found somewhere in Thurston County, Washington.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1891 and closed  in 1915.
