Old Parramore: The History of a Florida Ghost Town - Paperback

by Dale Cox (Author)

Old Parramore was a riverboat town that grew in Jackson County, Florida, during the late 1800s. Founded by Confederate veterans, the town's life was short but colorful. From a prosperous community with stores, plants and mills, Parramore has all but faded away today, becoming a true Florida ghost town. In his acclaimed style, writer and historian Dale Cox explores the rich history of this remarkable community and its people. From true stories of riverboats, lynchings, tornadoes and more to actual photographs of alleged Parramore ghosts, this book is a loving tribute to a forgotten town and its citizens.
