Though you’d hardly notice it today, Pretoria was once a busy crossroad village, anchored by nearby plantations. It had a post office from 1900-1917 and was incorporated in 1907. It was named for the South African city. It was never much more than a crossroads, but there were at least two stores at one time. The old Pretoria Station, which was recently demolished, and this store, which I believe is still standing.
Sir
I just came across this site. Theers still hope for this store, Buy that flag and hang it with the hand painted sign, hell, next time you stop by you might meet me behind the counter!
