Duncan, Texas

Duncan, Texas

Duncan, Texas is an abandoned ghost town in Milam County, Texas, twelve miles northwest of Rockdale near Alligator Creek.[1] The area was settled in 1879, and George and Elizabeth Duncan donated land to build a two-teacher school in 1892. The school was consolidated with Sharp ISD by the 1930's, and the only landmark there today is a small, green community center.[2]
