- Description
- This image is one in a series of postcards from the Reg Near collection. The Post Office depicted here was built by James Jameson around 1872, which he ran for the next thirty years. He passed the business on to his grandson, Gilbert H. Grant, in 1911, and the role of postmaster eventually fell to Robert H. Radcliffe. Radcliffe is listed as postmaster in 1926, and is possibly one of the men pictured here.
