Marie Railway]] was originally called "Lewis", but because at the time there was another post office named Lewis in Michigan, it was given a post office named "Caffey", after the Pennsylvania-born [[American Civil War|Civil War]] veteran William N. Caffey, who became the first postmaster in November 1899. The office closed in September 1909 and re-opened with Caffey as postmaster in June 1913. The post office closed permanently in December 1916.<ref name="Romig">{{cite book | last = Romig | first = Walter | year = 1986 | title = Michigan Place Names | orig-year= 1973 | publisher = Wayne State University Press | location = Detroit, Michigan | isbn = 0-8143-1838-X}}</ref><ref>{{gnis|2358652|Caffey Post Office (historical)}}</ref>

McLeod became the first postmaster in December 1879. The name, [[French language|French]] for "place of rest", was given by early French settlers because it was believed that Father [[Jacques Marquette]] used the harbor as the first step on his trip down Lake Michigan from [[St. Ignace, Michigan|St. Ignace]].<ref name="Romig" /> A historical marker commemorating the fishing village was erected in 1986.<ref>{{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20010221190727/http://www.michmarkers.com/Pages/L1255.htm Epoufette]}}, Michigan Historical Markers</ref> A summer post office operated here from 1959 to 1965 and 1966–1972.<ref>{{gnis|1926643|Epoufette Post Office (historical)}}</ref>
