This small borough between Bedford and Schellsburg following Pennsylvania Routes 31 and 96 received its name in a different manner.
A 1903 account in the Bedford Gazette newspaper said residents sought a post office for their portion of Harrison Township in the 1840’s. They had the backing of U.S. Rep. Job Mann.
Rather than having their preferred name declined by the post office, they didn’t have a name to begin with. They deferred to Mann to choose a name.
