For years here my postal address was RR2 box 109. They finally
standardized it to the normal grid address.

Same here in North Carolina. For years mine was Rt. 3 box 242EE. This
was on a country road. The road had a name and when the county went to
the 911 phone system every one had to have a street address. Most
started at the start of the road and the numbers went up about every
tenth of a mile. The address was then changed to 2345 Saw Road . Being
about 2.3 miles from where the road started.

I grew up on "Emory Lloyd Road" (named after my great grandfather). Now
it's CR231.
