  • Postal History Timeline
    Postal History Timeline Early Romans and Persians had message and relay systems. 1775 Continental Congress creates a postal system and names Ben Franklin the Postmaster General. He had also been a postmaster for the crown. Among his achievements as Postmaster for the Crown were establishing new postal routes, establishing mile markers, and speeding up service. IMPORTANCE: In early times, correspondents depended on friends, merchants, and Native Americans to carry messages. In 1639 a tavern in Boston was designated as a mail repository. England had appointed Benjamin Franklin as Joint Postmaster General for the Crown in 1753. Franklin inspected all the post offices, and created new shorter routes. However, in 1774 Franklin was dismissed because his actions were sympathetic to the cause of the colonies. 1832 First time railroads were used by the Postal Service to carry the mail. In 1864, railroad cars were set up to carry mail and equipped so that mail could be sorted on the railroad car. Railroad mail service ended in 1977. IMPORTANCE: Apart from the employees, transportation was the single most important element in mail delivery. 1840 The first adhesive postage stamp is created in England as part of a postal reform movement spearheaded by Roland Hill. Quickly, other countries started using this system of ensuring letters were paid for. Before this system, people would send letters postage due, with codes in the address or as a blank letter. This way the message would be received, but the recipient would not pay for the letter. 1847 The first U.S. postage stamp is issued. 1858 Butterfield Overland Mail provides service between Missouri and California.

John Bull, lo zio Sam, i vapori transatlantici e la posta. Keywords. Transatlantic steamships. Cunard Line. Collins Line. Mail subsidies. Parole chiave. Vapori transatlantici. Cunard Line. Collins Line. Sovvenzioni postali. Abstract Historical writing on North Atlantic postal communications in the mid-nineteenth century has mostly focused on the gradual ascendancy of the Halifax-based Cunard Steamship Company, which completed its first transatlantic postal voyage in 1840. Largely overlooked in this literature is the long and often ideologically charged debate in the United States over the propriety of subsidizing postal transportation outside of the country’s territorial boundaries. A pivotal event in this debate was the 1849 confrontation in the U.S. Senate between Ohio Democrat William Allen and Connecticut Democrat John Niles. Allen opposed postal subsidies: in his view, the U.S. government should subsidize the circulation of information on public affairs, but not commercial correspondence. Niles, a former postmaster general, supported subsidies as a necessary adjunct to trade.

PUB DATE 80 NOTE 25p.; Illustrations will not reproduce clearly. PUB TYPE Historical Materials (060) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Government Employees; Government Role; *Public Agencies;_ United States History IDENTIFIERS *PoStal Service ABSTRACT This eight-chapter illustrated booklet chronicles the history of the U.S. Post Office from its establishment by the Continental Congress in 1775 to the present. Chapter 1, "The Colonists," describes the postal service before the Revolutionary War. Benjamin Franklin's appointment as the first Postmaster General of the U.S. and his many contributions to the postal serviceare covered in Chapter 2, "Father of the U.S. Postal Service." Chapter 3, "The Revolution and After," portrays the huge increase that occurred in the U.S. population from the time of Andrew Jackson to the Civil War, the resulting huge increase in mail volume that occurred, and the actions the postal system took to overcome the problems. In Chapter 4, "The Pony Express," the 18-month life span of the pony express is chronicled as are the reasons for its demise. Two Postmaster Generals, Montgomery Blair and John Wanamaker, are portrayed in Chapter 5, "Two Postal Titans." These two men provided leadership which resulted in improved employee attitudes and new services to customers, such as free rural delivery and pneumatic tubes. Chapter 6, "Postal Stamps," tells the history of the postage stamp, and how a stamp is developed. Chapter 7, "Moving the Mail," presents a history of the mail service and the different modes of transportation on which it depends.

  • History of the Postal Service in Guyana
    History of the Postal Service in Guyana By Dmitri Allicock The French during their occupation in 1782 established the first postal service in historical Guyana. ‘They announced that a ship will sail for France eight or ten times every year by which anyone can send a letter to other countries. With the dawn of this age of instant internet communication and gadgetry it is easy to forget centuries of the Postal Service of Guyana which was once regarded as an essential instrument of nation building that adapted very well to serve alongside radio, telegraph, telephone and changing technology. No post office existed prior to the unification of the colonies of Essequibo, Demerara and Berbice in 1831 to form British Guiana. Mail infrequently arrived by ships of the Dutch West India Company and though no postage was charged, a fee of one guilder was required upon delivery. Guiana was still under the administration of the Dutch when the English packet service was established in the West Indies. After 1740, there was an influx of English settlers to the Guiana colonies. Many of them came from the West Indies and sent letters to the island via private ships. According to W.A. Townsend’s Postal History of British Guiana ‘In 1755, the Falmouth Packet Service was opened in Barbados and many of the traders called there for the transport of letters to England. This arrangement was soon disrupted as the French during their occupation in 1782 established the first postal service in Guyana. According to Townsend, ‘They announced that a ship will sail for France eight or ten times every year by which anyone can send a letter to other countries.’ In January 1783, Adrian Long was appointed as the first Postmaster for Demerara.

The Annual General Meeting will give members a chance to toss kudos or hurl invective at the officers in person, and there will be news and an announcement or two that should be of considerable interest to everyone.
