Description
The variant name Bottom was collected during the initial data compilation (Phase I) from the 1:24,000 scale topographic maps of the U.S. Geological Survey.
History
The varaint name Bottom was in use for a short time for the community because there was a post office named Bottom (q.v.), and which now no longer exists. Often in the late Nineteenth Century and early Twentieth Century when post officies existed in small rural communities, the name was differnt because of the rule that no State could have a post office name repeated, and this apparently was the case here. The name Bottom has not been used since the post office closed (except on older maps).
