A friend of mine's uncle owned land just north of Terlingua, back in the late 1980's. He bought around 80 acres of land in the late 40's early 50's. The land was part of a ranch with access to 1 million acres to hunt on. He built a small hunting cabin on part of the land that was around 5 miles or so off of TX118. The ranch would maintain the dirt roads to the properties on the ranch. While we were there to go hunting, my brother wanted some alcohol from the liquor store in town. He had to use the payphone at the local grocery store to call a number on the door. The owner lived behind both stores in a trailer park. There were quite a few trailers and mobile homes behind both stores.
Nolan, Texas. It's a few miles south of Sweetwatet, Texas. In early 1980's, my dad worked in surrounding area of this now ghost town called Nolan. My brother and I would go and work with my dad. At that time it had one small store that sold newspapers, sodas, motor oil, and my favorite: Mrs. Baird fried pecan pies. It had a school called Divide. I'm curious what the school mascot was?
I attended several 6-man football games in that area in the 80s. I believe Divide's field was the one that sloped toward one sideline at such a steep angle that covering a kickoff before it rolled out of bounds was quite a challenge. As they backed up for each re-kick, eventually half the the distance to the goal line became less and less. I saw one kick take place from the 2 1/2, and heard from the coach that the team he'd scouted the previous week had to kick from the 1 1/4.
Here are a few more: Lake Belton in Belton, Texas, may contain the remnants of several ghost towns, including Sparta, Bland, Tennessee Valley, and Old Aiken. The towns were inundated by water in 1954 when the Leon River was dammed to create the 12,385-acre reservoir. As water levels drop, the towns may reappear, and some people have seen lost items washing up on the shores. However, park ranger Arty Johnson doubts that Sparta will be visible because there's at least 50 feet of water above it.
Kinda hard to call Terlingua an actual ghost town. Some people still live there, and there are a couple of bars, restaurants, and a crude motel and numerous vacation rental cabin complexes in business there. It is a fascinating place to visit.
@rescue270 heck that's more then my town has. No motel at all no restaurant. There is a bar, but it been closed for years. The two stores, a circle K would out them to shame. Honesty I don't see how they Stay open they with have nothing. And don't understand why there are two. Nit enough business for one. Oh, yeah there is a Cafe. Forgot about it. As for the 2 stores. A vending machine with soda would be just as well. And one with snacks. I'd say it needs a real store. But there just isn't the business if someone would put one in. Heck even a dollar store is too much for the town. 200 is people and very few visitors
@@texasgina They actually have two chili cookoffs... ...at the same time! Apparently the two founders of the original cookoff got crossways with each other over something and parted ways amidst much shouting and profanity. One guy kept the cookoff rights as his own.

Woodmen of the World was a fraternal organization that paid death benefits to members families (there’s still an insurance company with the name that grew from this group). One of my great grandfathers was a member and his tombstone has the woodmen logo carved on it.
Look into Sanco, Texas! Really cool ghost town. I believe it has a school house, a church, and general store. 44 miles north of San Angelo Texas, and actually just 11 miles east of a town you mentioned in this video, Silver Texas.
I think he's only interested in the low hanging fruit, like Terlingua, which is really not a ghost town at all. Sanco might require a lot of work to research.
I wish more UA-camrs would use Google maps the way u do. Well done. I would recommend minimizing the zooming, panning and video fast play as I'm getting motion sickness😂. Seriously though, those types of edits need to be reduced.
Its funny because in the early 2000s Pecos was about to be a ghost town. I looked at property there at that time. And kick myself for not buying. Then a good 10 years later its is alive again. And today 20 years later its going good.
Great video! This is such a big state, I'm sure there are still many, many others out there that are forgotten about. I live about an hour's drive from Concord and Aldridge. The Concord Cemetery on Hwy 63 is supposed to contain many of the graves of those that were relocated. The rumor was (or is) that not all of the bodies were relocated, just the tombstones. The Aldridge sawmill is always a fun place to hike to. If I'm not mistaken, after the last fire there, the sawmill was rebuilt with the concrete structures that are there today. Supposedly, and depending on which book you read, it stayed in operation until they literally ran out of timber to cut, causing the town to go under just before the Great Depression. Looking forward to your next video. There's always something new to discover, even in our own backyard.
Interesting! Yeah, I never get tired of visiting Aldridge. It has the best of both worlds: nature and history. Thanks so much for your positive feedback and support! 🙏🏻
Man, you've really discovered some gems. I pass by a few of these places when I travel and always think I should stop and explore. Which ghost town has been your favorite so far?
Thank you! I still feel like I've only scratched the surface. But my favorite would have to be Terlingua, hands down. It's more than just its touristy downtown area; there are so many lost ruins all around the site in the desert. Every time I visit, I still find new ones! 🤯

As usual. the A I narration sounds ridiculous, but an interesting show anyway.
This guy is full of it , central Texas doesn't have mountains. Down around Austin there is what they call the hill country, but they are are from being mountains.

Can't believe Thurber TX. didn't make the list
We love eating at The Smokestack, great chicken fried steak! We also drive 80 miles to go to Mary's in Strawn!
Thurber is not an actual ghost town it has numerous people who still live there and several businesses including New York Hill and a Museum!!! 🤠👍
