Summary "List of Post Offices in Canada, with the Names of the Postmasters ... 1873" is a historical account compiled during the late 19th century. This work serves as an official document outlining post office locations across Canada, including the name of each postmaster affiliated with the respective offices. The book provides invaluable insights into the postal service and its administrators at a time when Canada was solidifying its national identity. The opening of this detailed compilation establishes the context of the post office system in Canada as of July 1, 1873. It begins with a transcriber's note, highlighting corrections made to printer errors, setting a tone of accuracy and thoroughness that defines the work. Following this, there is a memo from the Post Office Department asking postmasters to report any discrepancies regarding their offices. The core content that follows includes a systematic listing of post offices categorized by province, township, and electoral divisions, along with the corresponding names of postmasters. This meticulous organization reflects the extensive scope and administrative importance of the postal service in Canada during this period. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
