During the first period the Tehachipi post office was opened (1869-85) the postal marking named
changed four times. From Tehachipah, to Tehachipa, then Tehichipa and finally Tehichipi. The 1872 Tehachipah postmark was short-lived and by 1873 the "AH" at the end of name was removed from the postmark (creating this Williams KER-4100 postmark).
Later, after the office changed to Greenwich, the office (and town name) then became Tehachapi. (Image1)
