Hand Stamp

3/28/2022

 
​Hand Stamp, Yalmar, Michigan Post Office circa 1894

Charles Wilson settled in the Yalmar area (north of Skandia) circa 1881. He ran Yalmar’s first post office out of his home in 1894. In 1902 he opened the general store which also housed the post office. The store and gas station are still operating on US 41. The center of the stamp would have held the date.
