Ghost Towns of
Wayne County


Wayne County in northeastern Ohio is the home of Wooster, and site of plenty of wooded hills and ridges which once contained mining towns. The towns I know anything about are listed below.



Rogue's Hollow
Chippewa Twp.
Rogue's Hollow is a true ghost town, a former mining community located south of Doylestown which was famous as a haven for criminals. It eventually faded away but is kept alive today by the Rogue's Hollow Historical Society and a book written in 1958 by Russell Frey.
