GHOST TOWN
USA is a large website incorporating five basic subject areas:
This
site map for GHOST TOWN USA’s website should help you navigate these pages, and aid you in moving about
our web site.
NOTE: Beginning in 2014, I started transferring
many files into a different format to feature photos and other graphics on the
same page as the vignettes. As this is a
time-consuming process, some links and backlinks
might be down or messed up. IF you find
one, please let me know. I am doing this
to enable photos to appear on the page, rather than as links. I have noticed that if multiple photos are
linked on one page, often times the links get messed up. Toyah,
TX and the Tintic Mining District, UT are two examples I have recently discovered. Therefore, the change in
formatting.
