The community's name is derived from the word calcium, in reference to the limestone that was mined in the local quarries.[2] A post office was established in 1899, and was in operation until about 1980. The next to last Post Master for the Calcis zip code was Herbert Russell Justice; who also owned and operated a general store in the community. Both were later run by his daughter Frances Warren upon Mr. Justice's retirement.[3][4][5] References1. ^{{cite gnis|115387|Calcis}} {{Shelby County, Alabama}}{{Alabama-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite book|url=|title=Place Names in Alabama|last=Foscue|first=Virginia|date=1989|publisher=The University of Alabama Press|isbn=0-8173-0410-X|location=Tuscaloosa|page=27}} 3. ^Personal first-hand knowledge, I lived much of my life in Calcis. 4. ^Family connections to Herbert Justice, he was my maternal grandfather. 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp?task=display&state=AL&county=Shelby |title=Shelby County |publisher=Jim Forte Postal History |accessdate=21 October 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141022181749/http://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp?task=display&state=AL&county=Shelby |archivedate=22 October 2014 |df= }} 2 : Unincorporated communities in Shelby County, Alabama|Unincorporated communities in Alabama |
