The last of the mass-created Franklin County post offices (you can certainly tell here because they forgot to change the name of the place in the body of the article: it still says "Dennison"). No there there, deleted GNIS entry, you know the drill. Mangoe (talk) 23:14, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Listed as an extinct town here: https://legendsofkansas.com/franklin-county-extinct-towns/ Though I believe this link is really just a list of post offices, and the author doesn't really understand the situation. I searched the three local papers that cover the area and found no mentions of the place. Though in 1906 there was blurb about postmaster McCandless painting his post office in Princeton. It cannot be notable if the local papers don't mention it.James.folsom (talk) 21:50, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: In a previous discussion in which I improperly nominated the article for deletion, Uncle G claimed this is a "largely undocumented claimed rural post office". They found "zero sources [...] indicating any sort of population centre." Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 01:44, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as per all of the above. TH1980 (talk) 01:14, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
