A Glimpse into History
Griggs Corners has a simple but interesting past. A long time ago, in 1867, a post office was opened there. This was an important place for people to send and receive letters and packages. The post office served the community for many years, finally closing its doors in 1903.
The community got its name from a local resident named Solomon Griggs. People often named places after important families or individuals who lived there, and that's how Griggs Corners came to be known.
