Thurber Texas Ghost Town Once Central to Coal Boom
Thurber once sprawled as the largest town between Fort Worth and El Paso with thousands of coal miners. The Texas Pacific Coal and Oil Company owned the town, its hotel, club, lake, and shops, and hosted festival crowds, a country club, and a top regional baseball team. After oil discovery at Ranger in 1917 and a 1920s strike, the company moved headquarters to Fort Worth, ending Thurber’s coal era. The population remained around a thousand in 1921 with diverse immigrant workers and lively weekend activity fading as operations declined.

Thurber’s Rise and Fall Echoes in Deserted Blocks
Empty streets replace a booming town as houses were moved away. What remains includes a few residences, brick buildings, a filling station, a 100 foot smokestack of Thurber brick, half-cut hills from clay mines, and waste piles beside forever-sealed mines.
