Do you know of Lodomillo ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Lodomillo. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Lodomillo.<1>

Our sources for Lodomillo (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Lodomillo other than they indicate that Lodomillo would be found somewhere in Clayton County, Iowa.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1851 and closed  in 1855.
