@@micfin109 All those poor memories stuck in "government" soil and likely never to see the light of day again. On top of the federal land, many more of Ohio's ghost towns are in state parks with no digging permission possible.
Some of the issues at most of these locations in Ohio are fences, checkpoints, and federal trespassing charges for ignoring the fences and checkpoints. 😅 The public can't go look for foundations or metal detect for artifacts tied to the towns in restricted areas. Research is fun, too, but exploring is a lot more fun.
Awesome! Thanks for the info! Unfortunately, the vast majority of the wood buildings in Ohio's ghost towns didn't stand the test of time due to climate and weather factors. A lot of them did look like the ghost towns out west back in the day, but it's mostly just brick buildings and small stone structures left these days. We do have a good number of houses that still exist from the former towns on the website. However, they require lots of love from caring owners as time goes on.
It's fascinating ❤
Thanks for sharing Glenn 😁
Unfortunately most are on federal land nowadays.
🧿 much respect on your research efforts!
Thanks! It all started with the simple purchase of a metal detector in 2011, and somehow turned into a 100 page website. 😅
@ Lmao. on “government land”

🤔
Government land = public land. Whats the issue?
