History
Neeses was originally founded as Silver Springs, changing its name to its current form on September 29, 1898, to honor Mayor John W. Neese, who funded railway expansion through the town through a right of way sale in 1891. John W. Neese had been postmaster of "Neeses", located in his mercantile store from 8/24/1886 until 5/23/1887, and postmaster of the Silver Spring post office from 11/4/1893 until 9/29/1898, when it was renamed "Neeses #2", since the town was renamed in his honor. The Neeses post office provides service to the people of Neeses and surrounding unincorporated areas, mainly in Elizabeth Township.
