History
"Located on Station Camp Creek about 12 miles south of Irvine on Highway #89. The post office and community was named for D.B. Alumbaugh and his father, Mr. John Alumbaugh. The late Dr. E.E. Edwards, who also owned property in the vicinity along with D.B. Alumbaugh and Mr. Albert Arvin, helped to get the Alumbaugh post office established when the Powell Post Office, which had been named for Allen Powell, was moved from the vicinity. The post office was established May 14, 1891, with Mr. John B. Alumbaugh as postmaster. Other postmasters were: Daniel B. Alumbaugh, Albert T. Arvin, Mrs. Margaret Ruth Winkle. Edward T. Arvin was the last postmaster as the post office was discontinued April 30, 1915, with people to get mail from Wagersville post office." - Place Name Survey-Estill County, Kentucky, Bobby L. and Lorene Rose, circa 1970s.
