Welcome!!

Welcome to the Peru Indiana 46970 Post Office employees blog. We will be posting pictures and information about those who have and still work at the post office here in Peru. However, we do need your help in completing the posts. If you have pictures, newspaper articles or any information about the Peru Indiana 46970 Post Office, please submit them to us and we will enter that information here.

We are trying to compile a site that honors those that work and to not forget those that did work here. We do not know the dates that many of the pictures were taken or know the names of those that are in the pictures! Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you and enjoy!
