Uniontown Post Office Closes After 140 Years of Service
In Uniontown, a rural Ohio community dating to 1813, the post office inside the Caro line Devilbiss general store will shut on June 30 after 70 years of family operation. Ms. Devilbiss, 77, cites fatigue and ongoing changes in mail handling as the cause. Residents fear mail delivery will suffer as no nearby stores remain and post routes must be reorganized. The Westminster and Baltimore systems will replace former local convenience, ending a lifelong tradition of daily in-store mail pickups.
