Do you know of Mullen ???

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

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

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1894 and closed  in 1903.
