The Commemorative Quarter for North Carolina







Do you know of Variety Grove ???

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

Our sources for Variety Grove (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 Variety Grove other than they indicate that Variety Grove would be found somewhere in Harnett County, North Carolina.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1879 and closed  in 1897.
