Do you know of Basilus ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Basilus. 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 Basilus.<1>

Our sources for Basilus (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 Basilus other than they indicate that Basilus would be found somewhere in Moore County, North Carolina.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1904 and closed  in 1906.
