Do you know of Manila ???
This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Manila. 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 Manila.<1>
Our sources for Manila (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 Manila other than they indicate that Manila would be found somewhere in Cabarrus County, North Carolina.
From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened in 1898 and closed in 1902.
