More Oklahoma Ghost Towns...

In particular, Fitzlen and Wister, Oklahoma. Fitzlen is somewhere in Old Woods County -- Wister is now covered by Wister Lake which was build as a flood control in that area and became a part of the Wister State Park -- near Pine Valley, Oklahoma. We love hearing from all of you and sharing your memories growing up in some of these Oklahoma ghost towns. Like one of our readers said, "You can never return to the past, but it sure is nice to know what the past history is. Sure makes me miss the talks with my grandmother about her life coming to Oklahoma."
