A Look Back: Lime Creek's History

Lime Creek has a history that goes back to the late 1800s. A post office, which is where people send and receive mail, opened here in 1889. This post office served the community for many years. It finally closed its doors in 1971.

The community got its name from a nearby stream, also called Lime Creek.
