ONE OF TWO RECORDED MANUSCRIPT POSTMARKS FROM WAIALUA, OAHU.
In the early years of the Waialua post office, business was conducted at the mission located on the present cemetery site at Emerson Road. Waialua received two sheets of Numeral stamps (@25 stamps per sheet) in 1859. In the 1890's, the post office was located in Mahaulu's general merchandise store. In December, 1898, the post office was moved to the Waialua railway station. From at least 1884, Waialua was a weekly stop for interisland steamships; in 1886, the service became twice weekly. Mail was carried between Waialua and Honolulu by the overland carrier service and by the steamships.
