Other Texas Ghost Town links

These might be worth checking out if you like old abandoned ghost towns. Some may be way out in the boonies, but never know what one might find

Great Info. I am actually in the planning stages of visiting some of these sites. Most though are on private property. I will probably bypass those.

There is also a good book by T. Lindsay Baker called Ghost towns of Texas that is an excellent read.

I plan on MDing that one site in Denton in the next few weeks because it is right up the road from me.

Thanks for the Info on that website, its one I missed somehow

I am planning on going up to some of those places not this weekend, (Army Duty) but next weekend. I just got into MDing a couple of months ago and I figured another way to ask to detect on someone's property would be to mention that I collect old wheat pennies, (As that is what I find mostly, along with small buried trash), then I figured the property owner would most likely allow me to MD. I would certainly love to hit that Phantom Hill site, but the owners may say out of the question!

I would like to go out as a group or with others if anyone is interested. I am in Pflugerville, close to Hutto.
