Details

I am documenting as much information as possible about the history of the Carrollton subdivision from its birth, livelihood, defense against eminent domain, and its ultimate destruction. Any contributions to this project (stories, photographs and the like) are greatly appreciated and the owners/ authors will be recognized in print when this project is published.
