Do you know of Dorroh ???

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

Our sources for Dorroh (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 Dorroh other than they indicate that Dorroh would be found somewhere in Laurens County, South Carolina.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1883 and closed  in 1894.
