One of the oldest Post Offices still standing in operation in what would have been the State of Jefferson if Japan had not attacked Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7th 1941.
This Post Office was established in what was called Slate Creek. It was established as Slate Creek Post Office in May 1858, when a regular tri-weekly stage began running. The name was not officially changed to Wilderville Post Office until 1878.
