"List of Post Offices in Canada, with the Names of the Postmasters ... 1865" is a historical account likely written in the mid-19th century. This work compiles a comprehensive list of post offices throughout Canada as of January 1, 1865, and includes the names of postmasters for each location. The book serves as an invaluable resource for historians and genealogists interested in postal history or the development of communication in Canada during
this period. The opening of the work presents an introductory memorandum from the Post Office Department, emphasizing the importance of accuracy in the listings provided. It outlines specific instructions for postmasters to correct any errors detected in their offices as well as the inclusion of rates of postage for foreign countries appended at the end. Following this, the extensive list begins, organizing post offices alphabetically alongside various details such as township, electoral county, and the names of local postmasters, showcasing the breadth and detail of postal infrastructure in Canada at that time.
