updarte: 2-27-2012 visited today, and school building is still intact, and seems like it is in use in some capacity.  Mercantile building is still standing and vacant as well as the bar.  Peeked into the windows of the bar and looks like someone closed its doors sixty years ago and forgot about it, as all furniture, bar ware, ect is still in the bar waiting to be used again.  There are quite a few newer constructed homes in the town.

Established in 1879 due to necessity of living and housing space for coal miners in the area. In 1920 the population was around 2000 people. The town population started dwindling down since 1941. (These Photos were taken Oct 14 1992). The town is still populated. Submitted by Bob Bezzant.
