On April 8, 1842, when Robert S. Haviland became postmaster, the office was moved approximately one mile east to his store at the point where Richland Creek crosses the Harrison County line, about a mile above the main Licking River but within Harrison County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">It was at this location that the New York City\u2013born Robert S. Haviland (1796\u20131858) had already established himself as a local entrepreneur. He had opened a store there in 1832 and later developed a woolen and cotton factory, a sawmill, and two grist mills. Around these enterprises, a community grew, and Haviland formally laid out a town which he named&nbsp;<strong>Havilandsville<\/strong>&nbsp;for himself. The post office adopted this name as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">By the 1850s, Havilandsville had become an important industrial and trade center in the region. The town supported meat-packing and tobacco factories and featured a landing on the river from which locally produced goods were shipped to several national markets. Following the Civil War, the post office underwent a number of short-distance site changes within the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The Havilandsville post office ultimately closed in August 1926. Today, this former county-line community, located approximately sixteen miles north of Cynthiana, Kentucky, is virtually extinct and is not even identified on published maps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"maps-location\">Maps &amp; Location<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" height=\"587\" width=\"1024\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.havilandsville.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-08-10-at-12.31.38-PM-1024x587.png?resize=1024%2C587&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-110\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Havilandsville in 1877<br>D.G.
