    2. This section is incomplete…..I did not get all of it copied. Please post ALL comments to the list….My mailbox gets too full. TWIGGSVILLE The Twiggsville settlement was located in the southern part of the county along the old federal road connecting Jeffersonville and Hartford (Pulaski county). A post office was established for the settlement in June, 1853 and, except for short periods of time on four occasions, lasted for about forty years. The families of the community, like their neighbors, derived their living form the soil. The settlement had several large planters who accumulated considerable wealth. Post Masters: 6-1-1853 James T.
