Elaine, I have a lot of Iowa (Scott County) Ghost Towns on my site, but could use some help in getting more info for each town listed. Can any of that material be used on my Iowa Ghost Towns site, or where did you find it? Mel P.S. I hope to hear from others who can send me some information on ghost towns. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elaine Rathmann" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 8:02 PM Subject: Re: [IASCOTT] Iowa Towns > Hi Mel, > > I did a comprehensive research project on the lost towns of Scott Co. a > couple of years ago.

Mel, you're more than welcome to link back to the Scott County site, but since we worked so hard to research and present the information, we'd prefer to keep it onsite.
