Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Olive Branch is a small place in Clermont County, Ohio, in the United States. It's known as an "unincorporated community." This means it's a group of homes and businesses that isn't officially a town or city with its own local government. Instead, it's part of the larger county.

A Look Back: History of Olive Branch

Olive Branch has a simple but interesting history. It was never officially "platted." This means that unlike many towns, its streets and land lots were not formally laid out and recorded on a map by a surveyor.

The Post Office Era

Even without being a formal town, Olive Branch was an important spot for people living nearby. A post office was opened there in 1845. This was a big deal because it helped people send and receive letters and packages. The post office served the community for many years. It finally closed its doors in 1922.
