Do you know of Bonami ???

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

Our sources for Bonami (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 Bonami other than they indicate that Bonami would be found somewhere in Kanawha County, West Virginia.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1902 and closed  in 1909.

Miscellaneous References and Mentions for Bonami ...

We've created the following list to keep track of the sources that proved useful in adding to our knowledge about Bonami:

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