| | Post Office / Postmaster / Mail Delivery History - Sussex, Lisbon, Colgate, Lake Five, Lannon |
 | | The Sussex office was established in 1851, with William weaver, Sr., as postmaster, E. Champeney served as deputy. |
 | | Originally, the post office was on a back table in the village general store, but in 1911 it was moved to the front west side of the store and boxes were put in for the patrons. |
 | | Today, residents are served by not only the post office in the Village of Sussex, but from those in the Villages of Pewaukee, Hartland, and Merton, as well as the unincorporated community of Colgate in Washington County (perhaps even Lannon, Duplainville, or Menomonee Falls). |
