Butterfield Overland Mail (officially the Overland Mail Company) was a stagecoach service in the United States operating from 1858 to 1861. It carried passengers and U.S. Mail from two eastern termini, Memphis, Tennessee, and St. Louis, Missouri, to San Francisco, California. The routes from each eastern terminus met at Fort Smith, Arkansas, and then continued through Indian Territory (Oklahoma), Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Mexico, and California ending in San Francisco. On March 3, 1857, Congress authorized the U.S. postmaster general, at that time Aaron V. Brown, to contract for delivery of the U.S. mail from St. Louis to San Francisco. Prior to this, U.S. Mail bound for the Far West had been delivered by the San Antonio and San Diego Mail Line (Jackass Mail) since June 1857.

Die Postkutschen transportierten Fahrgäste und Post von zwei östlichen Haltestellen in Memphis (Tennessee) und St. Louis (Missouri) nach San Francisco, (Kalifornien). Die zwei östlichen Wege treffen zunächst in Fort Smith zusammen dann führte die Strecke durch Indianer-Territorium, Texas, New Mexico und Arizona nach San Francisco. Am 3. März 1857 beauftragte der Kongress unter James Buchanan den damaligen Postminister, Aaron Brown, mit der Zustellung der Post der Vereinigten Staaten vom Osten (Fort Smith) in den Westen (San Francisco). Davor musste die Post für den Westen per Schiff über den Golf von Mexiko transportiert werden. (de)
