Welcome to Abbie ...

So far, we found very little information about Abbie. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Abbie to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Abbie - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Abbie, please Contact Us.

While we don't have the exact location of Abbie , we believe that it would have been located within present day Carroll County<2>.

Adding Abbie to Our Gazetteer ...

The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Abbie was in the document titled List of Post Offices from Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<3>

From that list, the Abbie post office opened in 1900.

We also found Abbie on a map titled Rand McNally Map of Virginia (1911).

Footnotes ...

<1>	We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Abbie, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>	If you're interested in how the shape of Virginia's counties, including Carroll, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
