Kenneth, Indiana: I'm not sure why the history and Forte's PO site disagree about the date the post office closed, but it's clear that thee was never a settlement here.

Skynxnex ( talk ) 16:49, 23 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : A post office is a central part of a community.  Just from cursory googling, it seems like the town at the very least DID exist, but eventually was consumed by Logansport.  Currently, there is a quarry named the Old Kenneth Stone Quarry about a mile from the GPS coordinates given in the article, as well as a small town or neighborhood clearly visible from aerial photography.  The town certainly exists, though perhaps we should try to dig up more sources for it.  Kingsmasher678 ( talk ) 17:21, 23 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I'm not seeing this "small town or neighborhood".  Could you give coordinates?  Mangoe ( talk ) 01:29, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] 40.758946, -86.458442 Kingsmasher678 ( talk ) 02:36, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] That is France Park .  Mangoe ( talk ) 02:41, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete: You are right, I have created a new article for the park that should meet the actual notability requirments.  Kingsmasher678 ( talk ) 14:26, 26 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : Only reference 5 gives anything approaching real information (apart from name and coordinates), and it inconsistently describes Kenneth either as a rail junction or a quarry.   Either way, that's not enough to establish notability as per WP:GEOLAND .   And a post office in the 19th century was not necessarily a central part of a community, as post offices could be just any sheltered place willing to accept and store mail (rural stores, farms, hotels, stagecoach inns, train stations, etc.).   If more information is found we can reconsider, but there isn't much to go by.

Thanks, Hey man im josh ( talk ) 19:29, 30 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete The one reference that is good refers to it as the the place known as kenneth in 1918, but phrases it such that I think that was a recent thing.  In 1916, several kids were injured leaping from the train at Kenneth due to the fact it didn't stop.  So we know it was indeed a flag stop, due to that.  I don't know how that works, I just know the train clearly didn't stop regularly there.  During that period there is indication the area is known as Kenneth, but no mention of anything indicating a town.  No stores or other commerce, just the quarry.  The train station would have a post office just because the quarry was there, and probably the quarry loaded stone there.  The quarry was an attraction to local youth as late as 1957 when the sheriff rounded up some kids there.
