Manila (Mississippi County), the main street of which is shown here approximately ten years after the town’s founding in 1901, was named in honor of Commodore George Dewey’s Spanish-American War victory at Manila Bay in the Philippines. The modern-day town has an additional military connection: it is home to the state’s smallest state park, honoring World War I soldier Herman Davis.
