Fiddletown AKA Oleta

There wasn’t much to Fiddletown in the mid-1930s when this post card view was taken. The men are standing in front of the post office which served the few townsfolk and country residents. The town made history in the 1930s when its citizens wanted the village’s historic name back. It had been Fiddletown until 1877 when locals petitioned the legislature to change it to the more dignified Oleta.
