History

A post office was established at Ogilville in 1893, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1931.[4] It was likely named for the Ogilvie family of settlers.[5] The town was originally named Moore's Vineyard and was first started in 1850 with the opening of a grist and saw mill along with a general store. At the same time in 1850, Burris Moore was the first Postmaster. The original name was changed to Ogilville around 1889.
