Hi [A brief review,]  yes,Hugh (Cleland), your memory serves you well. Your Grandma was my 
Grandfather's "Michael Daley," sister, Somewhere in my notes , there is an article         
in 1834,news paper [ the Bytown Gazette,] which reads,on such a date  ,mails open, 
or mails closed, this would be signed by the Postmaster general ,another time it  would  
state, mail delivered to Osgoode, Fitzroy, and Chelsea, on certain days,              
The first Post Office, was opened in Osgoode Township in 1841 near Metcalfe,          
with Daniel Cameron,as the first ,Post Master, 
The Bytown Prescott Stagecoach past your door as early 1834-5. West Osgoode ,thriving 
community, of which your farm ,was apart of was started in 1841      by Phillip Helmer,
and John C,Bower ,a Hotel,  Stopping place,  sawmill,  table legs and bedsteads were 
turned out in large  quantity in a  turning factory other business sprang up,  
Cleland  feed and seed merchants, etc, the Post Office was established in 1852,  
with John C. Bower as the first Post Master ,
A Post  Office was established in Osgoode Station near the railway tracks in 1880, to 
serve the village residents, however the mail continued to be delivered from the 
hamlet of West Osgoode, to the village until rural routes came in 1913, 
sorry Hugh  to this point in time  I have failed to establish what years the Post 
Office was in Oliver House, but I would say it was definitely there in 1913, when     
the Rural Routes came into being,  you have verified that with the finding of the 
sign attached to house.         
... Michael Daley
