释义 |
HistoryA post office called Handy was established in 1913, and remained in operation until 1954.[2] The community's name most likely is derived from the last name of Noah Haney, a local merchant.[3] A folk etymology maintains the townspeople wrote to postal officials requesting a post office, adding "it sure would be handy".[4] References1. ^{{GNIS|750212}} {{Ripley County, Missouri}}{{coord|36|48|33|N|91|06|25|W|type:city_region:US-MO_source:GNIS-enwiki|display=title}}{{RipleyCountyMO-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp?task=display&state=MO&county=Ripley | title=Post Offices| publisher=Jim Forte Postal History | accessdate=14 December 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web | url =http://shsmo.org/manuscripts/ramsay/ramsay_ripley.html | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160624071854/http://shsmo.org/manuscripts/ramsay/ramsay_ripley.html | archivedate = June 24, 2016 | deadurl = no | title=Ripley County Place Names, 1928–1945 | publisher=The State Historical Society of Missouri| accessdate= December 14, 2016}} 4. ^{{cite book|last1=Moyer|first1=Armond|last2=Moyer|first2=Winifred|title=The origins of unusual place-names|url=https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=wu.89058322223;view=1up;seq=64|year=1958|publisher=Keystone Pub.
