Laquin, Pennsylvania

Laquin is a ghost town in Franklin Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania. It was founded in 1902 as a lumber town, but when the forests played out and the mills could no longer be fed, the industry left, and the people soon followed. The population of Laquin at one time approached 2,000. (The nearby ghost town of Barclay was a coal mining town.)
