Talk:Dogtown

Yes there are three Dogtown, California entries

There genuinely appear to be three Dogtowns in California:

• the place now known as Magalia,

• the ghost town in Mono County (also seemingly called "Dog Town")

• the non-existent town (according to references it never existed, as opposed to being a ghost town like Columbia, California) in Calaveras County (shown on Rand-McNally Road Atlas)

And of course the Ocean Park (Santa Monica/Venice) entry too. -Willmcw 07:54, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

There are more than three in Caliornia

• Dogtown, Marin County - on Shoreline Highway north of the turnoff to Bolinas; this was a logging town that was once the largest settlement in Marin; renamed "Woodville" so potential wives would find it more acceptable (it's said); posted that way by CalTrans for several decades, but now posted as Dogtown.Pablo Briones, Woodvile Ranch, Rose Briones
• Three Dogtowns are listed in the California Secretary of State's 2005 Roster of Unincorporated Areas, in Calaveras County, Mariposa County, and San Joaquin County.pdf

I will fiddle with the article later.--Hjal 07:14, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
