Hi Jan,

Green Castle still has a few houses remaining but hasn't had a post office for years. It is just a few miles south of the town of Mingo.

Green Castle even had a town square laid out, but the rail road went through Mingo instead and the town sort of dried up when the business moved to Mingo. It does have a well maintained cemetery that is still used.

I'll check your family names. They are not familar but we'll see what I can run down.

Jackie
