- Freeman Junction, a ghost town in Kern County, California, USA, was first homesteaded in the early 1870s. Freeman S. Raymond built a stage coach station here to accommodate travelers between the desert mines and Los Angeles. A group of Native Americans who were defending their homes and families in 1909 killed off the homesteaders and burned the stage station, after which the property lay dormant for several years. It was re-homesteaded in the 1920s by Clare C. Miley, who was born in 1900, and his wife. By the 1930s their small stone cabin became a gas station/car repair and later, a restaurant and some mining activities dominated the site. In 1953 a post office was planned, but never materialized and residents had to travel seven miles to Inyokern to collect their mail. By June, 1978, the town had died once again and the remains of the town have since been removed by passersby. Today, the site has reverted to its natural state and nothing remains. (en)
- Freeman Junction, est une ville fantôme du comté de Kern, en Californie, aux États-Unis. Elle a d' abord été une propriété acquise en vertu de la loi Homestead, dans les années 1920 par Claire C. Miley, née en 1900. Par la suite, dans les années 1930 Freeman Junction fut transformé en un restaurant, puis une station essence. Freeman Junction vivait des activités reliées aux ressources minières qui étaient exploitées dans la région. En juin 1976, la ville fut abandonnée et devint morte, et infrastructures furent démontées et pillées. (fr)
