A post office was established in 1855 and McDonough Harkness was its first postmaster. A railroad was also built in the area and the station of Altamont, with a post office founded by Ben Parker that operated from 1884 to 1886. Altamont then became Leland in 1888, and Leland's post office was moved to the station, where it closed in 1943.
