The data given here is from the Official Register of the United States, as published from 1816 to 1959, when the series ended.  It was known variously as the Biennial Register, since it was originally issued every two years in time for the first meeting of a new Congress, or the Blue Book, since the cover was originally blue.  As originally conceived, the Register listed every officer, employee and contractor of the U.S. Government, with their compensation and some personal information.

The United States Register, in 1794, claimed to be the first published list of government officers.  There were three official lists in 1793, 1802 and 1813, but they were not intended as part of a continuing series.  There were unofficial lists, starting with city directories in Philadelphia and New York in 1785 and 1786, and official accounting records, starting in 1789 (published first in 1793).

The Post Office listings in the Official Register are in three broad categories - the General Post Office, in Washington, D.C.; the post offices and postmasters, throughout the country; and the transport system between offices, largely by contractors.  The Auditor's office in the Treasury Dept., and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, are also included.  From 1879 to 1911, a distinction was made between The Post-Office Department and The Postal Service, on the basis of headquarters or field location.  Lists specific to the Post office appeared in 1790, 1791, etc., and these may be considered preliminary to the Official Register.

The early Registers give each low-level General Post Office employee's function only generally, as clerk, book keeper, messenger, or watchman, and the headquarters organization was largely undifferentiated.  The first specific function is in 1829, two employees "for opening dead letters".  The first separation into divisions and offices was in 1831, and job descriptions became much more detailed.  From 1837 to 1859, the list contains names and no details except at the highest levels.  Offices are again listed from 1861, but the quantity of information varies widely from one edition to the next.

The postmaster compensation data can be used to estimate the size or activity of a post office, though this takes some effort and much faith in the reliability of the data across the years.  If all you need to know is, is this a small office or a large office?, that can be determined with certainty.  From 1841 to 1859, postmaster compensation and post office net proceeds together give the gross income of the office, but for larger offices the compensation of clerks and carriers must also be considered.  Note that the 1843 data is for two years, not one, and others may be for two or three quarters only.  The compensation data for Southern post offices in 1861 extends only for three quarters (to Mar. 31) or to May 31, when the US postal service ended in the Confederate states.

Complete Post Office listings continued until 1911, when their length finally overwhelmed the production of the Register, and they were mostly eliminated.

Legal basis
The data was to be collected as of ...
The general organization of the Post Office listings expanded over the years, as the Department grew in size and complexity.  A distinction is made between the Post Office (headquarters in Washington) and the Postal Service (everything else, everywhere else).
Outside the Post Office Department itself, we have included listings for
There are additional listings with some relation to the Post Office, but not included here in further detail,
Further listings that may be of interest include

The first glimmers of an automated system of employee records are seen in 1911 (ref), 1913 (ref), and 1915 (ref).

The Post Office listing eventually became so lengthy and so long delayed that it was published as a second volume from 1879 to 1911.
The volumes from 1907 to 1921 include a lengthy Preface by the Director of the Census, intended to support the Director's repeated requests for revision of the laws governing the Official Register.  Frequent complaints involved
Volume II, with the Post Office data, drew considerable attention, and it was finally agreed in the Act of 22 Oct. 1913 to eliminate Vol. II entirely.  "It was necessary to obtain the names of the employees in the Postal Service by correspondence with each postmaster in the United States, and the accuracy of the returns furnished was in many cases very doubtful.  The task of preparing the volume was of such magnitude that a period of more than six months elapsed between the date to which it related and the date of its publication, and so many changes were made in the service during that time that it was of little value when finally issued." (ref).  It was noted in 1919, "That this very considerable economy is satisfactory to the public is evidenced by the fact that since the discontinuance of the volume no complaint has been received and very few inquiries have been made for the information formerly contained in that section of the Register." (ref).

The Preface in 1913, 1915, 1917 and 1919 ended with recommendations for revisions to reduce the cost and increase the utility of the series; in 1921 it ended with a recommendation to discontinue the series entirely (ref).  The 1923 Register was not published, by order of the chairman of the Joint Committee on Printing (ref), as a cost-saving measure, but it was restarted as an annual in 1925 (ref).

The Annual Report of the Public Printer [Government Printing Office] for 1925 summarized the situation (ref).
The Official Register survived in its much-reduced form until 1959.

On 13 Mar. 1792, the Senate "Ordered, That the Secretary of War report to the Senate a list of the officers on the Military establishment, specifying their respective rank, and the date of their commissions." (ref)  The list arrived 14 Mar. 1792, "Officers in service, belonging to the Infantry and Artillery, with the dates of their commissions." (ref)  Greely calls this "apparently the first official Army Register" (ref), although it appears only in the Senate Executive Journal, published in 1828.

Report on the Several Persons Employed in the Treasury Department, 3 Jan. 1793.
Similarly requested of the State Dept. (delivered 2 Jan. 1793, ref, link) and the War Dept. (delivered 3 Jan. 1793, ref).

Estimates for the expenditure of the civil list had been presented to the House on 14 Nov. 1792 (ref) and 13 Dec. 1792 (ref).

1793
Report on the Salaries, Fees, and Emoluments of Persons Holding Civil Office Under the United States, [26 February 1793].
The report was requested by Senate order, 7 May 1792 (link, link).  It was delivered to the Senate, 27 Feb. 1793 (link, link), a few days before the end of the session.
  • [7 May 1792] Ordered, That the Secretary of the Treasury do lay before the Senate, at the next session of Congress, a statement of the salaries, fees, and emoluments, for one year, ending the first day of October next, to be stated quarterly, of every person holding any civil office or employment under the United States, (except the judges,) together with the actual disbursements and expenses in the discharge of their respective offices and employments for the same period; and that he do report the name of every person who shall neglect or refuse to give satisfactory information touching his office or employment, or the emoluments or disbursements thereof.
  • [27 Feb. 1793] The Vice President laid before the Senate a report of the Secretary of the Treasury, on the salaries, fees and emoluments of persons holding civil offices under the United States, pursuant to the order of Senate of the 7th of May 1792; which were read.  Ordered, That they lie for consideration.
    • The request was limited to "civil offices", so the response omits the elected (political) offices of President, Vice-President, Senators, and Representatives; cf. the Constitution, Art. 1 Sec. 6 Clause 2 (ref, ref), and Art. 2 Sec. 4 (ref, ref).  The military is similarly omitted, except for Naval officers attached to the Customs; only civilians are listed with the War Dept.  The list also omits some unpaid positions, such as consuls.  Nevertheless, in other documents the "Civil List" includes the President and Congress (for example, 14 Nov. 1792, letter; 8 Nov. 1792, estimate for expenditure).
  • Treasury Dept. circular and letters, 31 Aug. 1792 (link), 13 Sep. 1792 (link), 6 Oct. 1792 (link).
  • Examples of responses, Oct. 1792 (link), 11 Oct. 1792 (link), 17 Oct. 1792 (link, link), 23 Oct. 1792 (link).
  • Alexander Hamilton to Thomas Jefferson, 6 Oct. 1792, requesting the State Department information, letter, letter.
  • Thomas Jefferson to Alexander Hamilton, 22 Oct. 1792, replying with the State Department information, cover letter, first part, second part.
The original document with all its attachments is more than ninety manuscript pages, many as collected by Hamilton from the various departments.  It was not printed or published at the time, and mostly remains at the National Archives [Record Group 46, Records of the U.S. Senate; Reports and Communications Submitted to the Senate during the 2nd Congress; Reports and Communications from the Secretary of the Treasury (SEN2A-F2)].  One part, No. XIV, Collectors of the Customs, etc., is noted "Not on file August 27 1828", and its place between No. XIII and No. XV is noted "Document Missing".

An abbreviated, rearranged, and edited version appeared in 1834, as "List of Civil Officers of the United States, except Judges, with their Emoluments, for the Year ending October 1, 1792", dated 26 Feb. 1793, in American State Papers, Miscellaneous, vol. I (vol. 37), No. 34, p. 57-68 (link; manuscript draft, "Condensed Report from Secretary of the Treasury with names, Compensation &c of all Officers in the civil employ of the Government", "Condensed by Order of the Secretary of the Senate").  The list of Collectors of the Customs, etc., appears on p. 60-66, making the 1828 date noted above a bit suspicious.  Work on the ASP would not have started before 1831, when the project was approved (Act of 2 Mar. 1831, 4 Stat. 471); editorial control rested with the Secretary of the Senate and the Clerk of the House.
  • For example, the Dept. of State, Foreign Branch, listing the ministers abroad, in 1793 begins with "Mr. Morris, Minister plenipotentiary at Paris", and in 1834 begins with "Gouverneur Morris, minister plenipotentiary at Paris".  The ministers' outfits, their allowance for travel expenses, etc., are rearranged, listed as a group in 1793 and individually in 1834.  The details of disbursements in 1793 are reduced to a total of contingent expenses in 1834.  William Short, Resident in the Hague, had spent $68.82 on postage in 1793, but you would not know that in 1834.
  • In some respects, Clement Biddle's 1791 list is more complete or more detailed.  For example, the agent at the Hague is given as "Mr. Dumas" in 1793, and "--- Dumas" in 1834, but as "Charles W.F. Dumas" in 1791.  Biddle lists all the consuls, which Hamilton does not.  The 1787 Pennsylvania Almanack also lists Dumas in detail, and the 1791 Fleet's Almanac gives his full name, Charles William Frederick Dumas.
  • Although the Senate and House members are not included, the Secretary of the Senate and the Clerk of the House did send information.  The Secretary's annual salary of $1500 and daily allowance of $2 while in session is itemized in 1793, but totaled without explanation in 1834.
The Post Office is not included, as no information was received from the Postmaster General (link, link).  Indeed, "Timothy Pickering, Postmaster General" leads the list of names in Section 19, "List of the Persons of whom no information has been received in regard to their Fees and Emoluments etc. pursuant to the order of the Senate of the 7th of May 1792".

Various images of the original documents were posted in 2017, as part of a <editorial-comment>nonsensical</editorial-comment> claim that the presidency is not "an office under the United States".  Here are some of the document portions (which we accumulated and arranged properly, linked above), and some of the arguments about this claim; click at your own risk.
  • Salaries for the President and Vice-President were set by Act of 24 Sep. 1789, 1 Stat. 72, "to commence with the time of their entering on the duties of their offices respectively, and to continue so long as they shall remain in office".  For the judges, and Attorney General, Act of 23 Sep. 1789, 1 Stat. 72.  For the Senate and House, travel allowance and per diem, Act of 22 Sep. 1789, 1 Stat. 70.
  • A letter from Alexander Hamilton to John Adams, 16 Aug. 1792, discussed the time at which the President and Vice-President assume their offices (ref).
  • The Estimate of the Expenditure for the Civil List, sent by Joseph Nourse to Alexander Hamilton, 8 Nov. 1792, includes the salaries for the President and Vice-President (link, link).  Similarly, the list dated 20 Dec. 1793 (link).
  • The Appropriations Acts of 23 Dec. 1791, 1 Stat. 226, and 28 Feb. 1793, 1 Stat. 325, for 1792 and 1793, allocated funds "For the compensations granted by law to the President and Vice-President of the United States".
  • Of the Official Registers, and their predecessors, that appeared from 1789 to 1959, only this 1793 report and the 1813 rolls do not list the President and Vice-President.
A common error is to assume that the 1834 version is the same as the 1793 version.  Given how hard it is to find the 1793 version, this is understandable.
  • Sen. J.A. Bayard, of Delaware, speech in the Senate, 19 Jan. 1864, Congressional Globe, 38th Congress, 1st Session, Appendix, p. 37 (link).  Bayard notes that the President and Vice-President were included in Hamilton's list (and thus he was using the 1834 version without knowledge of the 1793 version), and that the Congress was not included, hence members of Congress "did not hold a civil office under the United States".
  • Poore (1885) does not mention either version.  He does mention other items in the ASP Miscellaneous volume.
  • Greely (1900) notes “First "Blue Book" list, giving names of officers, from the President to the keepers of light-houses.” (ref), but his only citation is the 1834 version.
  • A scholarly discussion is given by Peter J. Kastor, Washington's Workforce, Reconstructing the Federal Government at the Moment of Its Creation, in Max M. Edling, Peter J. Kastor, eds. Washington's Government: Charting the Origins of the Federal Administration, Charlottesville : University of Virginia Press, 2021, https://www.jstor.org/stable/j.ctv1n3589s.  But, Kastor states "Hamilton delivered the results in February 1793.  Congress welcomed the information and promptly released it to the public domain.".  That cannot be true, as there was no printed version to disseminate in 1793.  Then, he gives the title as "List of civil officers ...", which is the 1834 version.
Three or four questions remain.  The answers likely are not knowable, as the Senate met in closed session 4 Mar. 1789 to 3 Nov. 1794, and the debates are not recorded.  The Senate also, reportedly, "had the policy of placing as little as possible of its proceedings in printed and accessible form." (ref)

Why did the Senate request this list?  Payments to government employees and elected officials were set by law.  The Senate had recently discussed bills concerning "consuls and vice consuls", "the door keepers of the Senate and House of Representatives in Congress", "the executive officers of government, their assistants and clerks", "alterations in the Treasury and War departments", and "certain officers employed in the collection of the duties of impost and tonnage".  An accurate list of who might be affected would surely be useful.  If regular salary or per diem rates were the main issue, then it would be superfluous to list the elected positions, as these were easily known and already enacted.  The actual irregular payments, by fees, commissions, etc., or per diem totals, would be of interest.  The animus between Jefferson and Hamilton may have had some impact, as the Treasury (under Hamilton) had grown too large for some, but Jefferson did respond quickly to Hamilton's request in Oct. 1792.  The House opened a long debate on 27 Feb. 1793, continuing to 1 Mar. 1793, on a set of resolutions attacking Hamilton for his handling of appropriated funds and foreign loans (ref, ref); the timing is probably a coincidence.

What use was made of this list in the Senate?  The fact that it remained as a manuscript suggests that no one was interested enough to request a printed version that could be shared widely, but that is probably true of the great mass of government paperwork of the period.  The fact that it remained incomplete may have been a deciding factor, but there is no evidence either way.  There were 14 states when the list was requested, 15 when it was delivered, so a printed version of 200 copies and 20-30 pages might have been reasonable, but it never happened.  No related mention of the terms salaries, fees, or emoluments, appeared in the Senate Journal through the 5th Congress, which ended 3 Mar. 1799.

Was the list ever completed?  Was the list kept current?  The list was already outdated by the time it reached the Senate.  For example, the chaplain of the House was Rev. Samuel Blair (per information provided to Hamilton by the Clerk of the House, 20 Oct. 1792), but he was followed by Rev. Ashbel Green, appointed 5 Nov. 1792 (ref).

Related issues - Did Hamilton or Congress give the 1793 list a title?  Was the 1793 list shared with the House, or anyone else?

As a random check on the accuracy of the information, Hamilton lists the annual salary of Joseph Nourse, Register of the Treasury, at $1500, paid quarterly.  The Register's salary was set by Congress at $1250 (Act of 11 Sep. 1789, 1 Stat. 67), raised by $500 (Act of 8 May 1792, 1 Stat. 281 § 10), and raised again by $250 (Act of 2 Mar. 1793, 1 Stat. 340).  Hamilton's figure accounts for two quarters at the first increment, to 1 Oct. 1792.  The 1792 New York Directory says $1250; Fleet's 1792 and 1793 Almanacks say $1500; the 3 Jan. 1793 list (above) and the 1793 American Pocket Almanac say $1750; the 1793 Philadelphia and New York directories say $2000.

Similar lists of a limited scope were delivered to the House and Senate in later years.  On 4 Apr. 1796, "The Speaker laid before the House, a letter from the Secretary of the Treasury, accompanying an abstract of the official emoluments and expenditures of the officers of the customs", for the year 1795 (ref).  Similarly for 1796 (ref), for 1797 (ref), for 1798 (ref).  These were required by the Act of 14 Feb. 1795, 1 Stat. 416 § 4.  On 1 Mar. 1799, and 5 Mar. 1800, there was a list of "the officers employed in collecting the internal revenues" (ref, ref), under the Act of 11 July 1798, 1 Stat. 591 § 10.  On 8 Mar. 1800, "The Vice-President laid before the Senate a return from the Secretary for the department of Treasury, of two abstracts of the emoluments of the officers of the customs, for the year 1799." (ref, ref).  Similarly for 1800 (ref), 1801 (ref), 1802 (ref), 1803 (ref), 1804 (ref), 1805 (ref), 1806 (ref); at this point, we stopped looking.

Proposed by Thomas Jefferson in his first presidential message to Congress, 8 Dec. 1801.  Transmittal letters, from Jefferson to Congress, 22 Dec. 1801; from Albert Gallatin, Secretary of the Treasury, to Jefferson, 27 Dec. 1801, with Outline of Government Offices, 27 Dec. 1801; from Jefferson to James Madison, Secretary of State, 29 Dec. 1801; from Gideon Granger, Postmaster General, 5 Jan. 1802, in the document itself; from Gallatin to Jefferson, 12 Feb. 1802, explaining the organization of the lists; from Jefferson to Congress, 16 Feb. 1802.
  • Jefferson's goal, clearly stated in 1801, was to identify opportunities to decrease the size and expense of the federal government, but not so much as to cause injury to its functions.
  • Gallatin notes in 1801, perhaps with some pride, "The last, (the clerks) for all the departments will be furnished by the Treasury department more correctly than by the respective Departments to which they belong.", and perhaps with some complaint, "The whole when done will form a formidable list; but I had no idea that it would be so complex & difficult completely to obtain".
  • From Gallatin, 12 Feb. 1802, "Deputy Post Masters are appointed by the Post Master General and paid by Commissions out of the monies collected.  It must be observed that the amount of emoluments returned is the gross sum received by them, and includes the expenses of Store rent and Clerks.".  Further notes on Granger's list of postmasters are here and here.
