Concordia Intelligencer
1841

The First Move – Our readers will be glad to see that Mr. Moore, the representative in Congress from this district, has made a move for post-offices in “Old Concordia.” In the House, on the 23rd of August, after the presentation of several resolutions and memorials, which were laid on the table, Mr. Moore offered the following resolution, which was adopted:

Resolved, That the committee on the post office and post-roads be instructed to inquire into the expediency of changing the route between Natchez, Mississippi, and Harrisonburg, Louisiana, so as to run once a week by Waterproof landing and Sicily island, and once a week by Flowery mound and Trinity; and also of establishing a post route on the west side of the River Mississippi, in the State of Louisiana, from Fort Adams to Lake Providence via Vidalia, Richmond and Millikin’s bend.
