MANTHA, TEXAS. Mantha was fourteen miles southwest of Pittsburg and five miles southwest of Leesburg in far southwestern Camp County. The settlement was the site of a post office from 1895 until 1901, and in 1896 it had an estimated population of ten. By 1910 it had ceased to exist as a named community.
