Forgotten Towns of Lubbock County

By the turn of the 20th century, Lubbock County was dotted with small communities. Today perhaps only a name is reminiscent of a place where people once worked and lived. Sometimes relics remain of a past community; often only memories exist. Dr. Sandy Fortenberry, Chair of the Lubbock County Historical Commission will explore the history of some of Lubbock County's "ghost towns." Ages 18+.
