Do you know of Oneal ???

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

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

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1908 and closed  in 1912.

Miscellaneous References and Mentions for Oneal ...

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