Manada Hill, Pennsylvania

Manada Hill sometimes Manadahill, is an unincorporated community in East Hanover Township, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, United States, within the census-designated place of Skyline View.

History

It has the oldest area of population concentration (it is now a flourishing commercial district of truck stops, restaurants, and convenience stores just off Interstate 81). It was the only village of the township, containing a post office and a few stores and shops to supply the surrounding neighborhood. Traveling peddlers provided incidental needs before the establishment of the country store. Three churches surrounded the community within a radius of three miles (5 km): a small Lutheran congregation; to the southeast the German Baptists built a church taken over in 1860 by the Hanoverdale Church of the Brethren; and to the northeast, the Zion Lutheran Church.
