Owl Creek, WY

in my story (A Love Born From Steel), Don Wroe's cabin is in the Owl Creek Mountains, and not too far from the town of Owl Creek.

I use the National Geographic Road Atlas of the United States, Canada and Mexico.  Others clearly are using something else, though, because many names are not in my atlas.  However, googling usually proves that those towns do exist, so I accept them.  :)

Needmore, TX

This town was founded in the 1920’s and they desperately needed more settlers.  So the existing settlers named the town “Needmore.”  Unfortunately, their little public relations stunt did not bring the desired results.  The population never broke the 100 mark.

Encarnacion de Diaz, Mexico

Just northeast of Guadalajara. There's got to be a story behind the name, don't you think?

(Julie, I'm using a AAA road atlas, and then googling for images and stories.)
