View of West Main St., Kingston, New Mexico
Visual Materials
Written on verso: "West Main St. Kingston, Lander County, Nevada. About 25 miles from Austin. Ghost town. Flourished from about 1864 to 1869. See History of Nevada, edited by M. Angel Thompson. West 1881 page 473." This appears to be a misattribution. Research shows that the town appears to be the mining town of Kingston, New Mexico, founded in 1882.
