Post office influences city name
Winston-Salem was founded in 1913 from two separate towns a mile apart. Winston was named in 1851 after Major Joseph Winston, a Revolutionary War hero. Salem, from the Hebrew word "shalom," was created by colonists in 1766. In the 1880s, the U.S. Post Office started to refer to the towns with the two names together as Winston-Salem. Following a decade of contention, the U.S. Post Office established the Winston-Salem post office in 1899, officially incorporating the name "Winston-Salem."
