Evergreen, AL 36401 - U.S. Post Offices on Waymarking.com

This stately old Post Office building, constructed in 1936, handles the mail in Evergreen, Alabama.

This area was first settled in 1818 and the town given the name "Evergreen" the next year. Sparta, the Conecuh County Seat, was more or less destroyed during the Civil War, and Evergreen became the new County Seat. The town suffered exceptional hardships; a tornado in 1882 destroyed every structure in town except for the Episcopal Church, and a fire in 1895 burned everything east of the railroad tracks. Five days later, another fire destroyed everything on the west side! The County Courthouse has burned four times - in in 1868, 1875, 1885, and 1895. Today the population is about thirty-five hundred.

To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.

A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.

If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
