Do you know of Perth ???

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

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

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1889 and closed  in 1901.
