I found one source that claimed this was a town, but given the context I am inclined to discount this as unreliable, as it appears to be assuming that every point on the line was a town. After that, it took a bit of searching to explain the total lack of anything on the topos other than the recently added name, but I eventually located someone's blogspot post on the line which explained that this section of the Ohio and Mississippi Railway was rerouted in 1900, so that the state road through the area was laid down over the prior roadbed. There also was some underground railroad activity in the area. All that said, I could find nothing out about this spot other than it was there on the railroad, and I really don't even have that good a confirmation of that.
