I have a postcard sent to Brazil, Iowa Oct. l, 1912. Can't tell from where. I cannot locate it on my Iowa map. Can someone tell me where this town was located. The card is of 4 men sitting out in front of a store, Can not read name, Looks as tho may have had political card in window, still cannot read it either. Thought perhaps locating "Brazil." Iowa might help.

Brazile is Appanoose county.

In addition Wanda, the book "American Place Names of Long Ago", authored by Gilbert S. Bahn lists it as BRAZIL in Appanoose co. It had an express office and a population of 426. This data was compiled by Mr. Bahn from the 1890 census before the census was destroyed. Dick May you live to be a hundred, with an extra year to repent!
