Does not seem to have been a community. Topos show a small cluster of buildings, ranging in number from 3 to 5. Newspapers.com brought up a total of three hits, all in reprints of the same government notice that it was seeking bids for road work, with one end of the work area being Demunbruns Store. Google books brings up two hits. One states that there were two stores and the Demunbruns Store site, the other calls it "the Demunbruns Store", saying that it served as a post office, grocery store, and souvenir shop all in one, and that it was razed in 1939. I'm not seeing a WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG pass to me. Hog Farm Bacon 03:26, 6 December 2020 (UTC) reply

  • delete (sort of) Google suggested searching for "Demunbrun Store", and this got me enough hits to explain everything. It was a large general store which served as something of a gateway to Mammoth Cave in the days before the national park takeover, and was torn down in 1939 as part of the formation of the park. There are a number of pictures. My suggestion would be to add some of this material to Mammoth Cave National Park, and create a redirect at Demunbrun Store to that section. At any rate, the current article is useless, and as a searchable term, it's not a good search target string. Mangoe ( talk) 18:39, 6 December 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: per nom, fails GNG and NGEO. Redirects are cheap and harmless, it looks like in Nov 2020 this received 7 views.   //  Timothy ::  talk  02:50, 14 December 2020 (UTC) reply
