History

Dennison was issued a post office in 1865 but was discontinued in 1868.[2] In 1898 the town of Woodleif was founded in the same area and was issued a post office the same year but was discontinued in 1901. After 1901, the town of Tauy was founded, but never had a post office and faded out in the 1920s. All that is left in the area today is the Tauy Baptist Church.
