Minnesota Ghostowns - Mavie

"While looking for history of Mavie, Minnesota, I came across the article about Minnesota Ghostowns written by Jeanine Baringer. I was surprised to hear Mavie called an old ghostown - but I agree that it is. We live in Mavie, Minnesota - not right in the town, but very close to it. My parents lived in Mavie in the late 1920's. My mother was Frances Hincik born to Ferdinand and Josie Hincik - my father, Andrew Orzechowski (Oski) born to Joseph and Anna Orzechowski. I have been searching for any pictures and/or history of the town. I am one of 5 children born to Andrew and Frances. My sisters and I remember going to the 'store' for ice cream or popsickles. There is only one building left in Mavie now in very run down condition. I think it may have been the post office. I would enjoy hearing from anyone that has history or pictures of the town." -- Cathy Email: kainzer@wiktel.com   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
