LIST OF LETTERS remaining in the Post Office at Marietta, Ohio
October 1, 1842

NOTE:  Remember to keep an open mind when reading how each of these names are 
spelled.  Keep in mind that many of our early ancestors could not read or write.  
Many of these are spelled how they sounded, and with poor handwriting skills,
the postmaster probably had to guess the spelling of the name if it was 
unreadable.  The information in the brackets ( ) and ? marks are my notes.  
I am assuming the the # 2 next to some of the names is the number of letters 
they had in the post office or it could mean that the suffix of the name was Jr.
