Opinion: You've Got Mail – Home Delivery, Romance, Ar

Originally, mail was not delivered to homes but to post offices. Although free home delivery in the U.S. began in 1863 in 49 cities, home delivery in Laguna did not begin until soon after the second woman to become a Laguna postmaster, Ada E. Purpus, took office in 1934.
