Im hoping to find out a bit of history about the first post office in Naples Florida. . It was located at the end of the historic Naples Pier. Does anyone have a photo or card of the PO? I believe it burned in 1922 although some articles that I have read disagree on that date . Any info is appreciated.

Here is a list of the postmasters in Naples. The fact there is only one would suggest that the Naples Pier PO was the only one in the area. Which would, in all probability, make the photo the one you want.
