A Look Back: The History of Chattoogaville

Chattoogaville has a history that goes back a long time! In 1840, a special building called a post office was set up in the community. A post office is where people can send and receive letters and packages. This was a very important service back then, as it connected people to the outside world. The post office served the community for many years, finally closing its doors in 1906.

The name 'Chattoogaville' comes from the nearby Chattooga River. Many communities in the past were named after important natural features like rivers, which were often used for travel and trade.
