Do you know of Lebo ???

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

Our sources for Lebo (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 Lebo other than they indicate that Lebo would be found somewhere in Perry County, Pennsylvania.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1882 and closed  in 1904.
