Technically, I don't know if this a ghost town question or not, but I'm unable to come up with another explanation. According to an 1895 Atlas, Canfield, CO which was in Boulder Co. had about 300 residents, a post office and a train station. The post office archives indicate the post office closed in 1908 and after that Canfield seems to fall off the edge of the Earth. Does anyone know what happened to it? Is it now a ghost town, did the people all leave and all trace of the town then truly vanish, did the town simply change its name or be incorporated into some larger town, or did something else happen? Any assistance that anyone could provide would be truly appreciated. Thanks.
