Exploring the Abandoned Old Western Ghost Town of Capa, South Dakota
มุมมอง 8K8 หลายเดือนก่อน
Watch as we take a close look inside the long decaying ghost town of Capa, South Dakota, getting a peak into old western prairie history. Capa's located in Central South Dakota and was once home to hundreds of people and several flourishing plains businesses. It's full of the historic remnants from its once active community.

You walked right by the only really cool thing there,the John Deere tractor !!!!
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing. Wish it wasn't so far from me. I love to do night photography and star trails! Can any one access this or do you need to have permission?
Nice pictures, but you need to work on the narrative. Feed the mind and the eyes, that's how to make a great video. More information.
Yes, Henry was Philip’s father. Philip is my late father’s first cousin, so my first cousin, once removed. As of July 2024, I do not know whether Philip is still living. I do believe that his mother or grandmother was Postmistress of Capa at one time.
Henry O’Connor was my grand uncle (my grandfather’s brother).
Philip O’Connor is my first cousin, once removed.
THANKS FOR THE EXPLORING ADVENTURE.
Are the railroad tracks still being used or has it been abandoned.
Who owns the land now
13:00 St Mark Church closed in 1954
I would try to find the owners and try to get that old truck and that car and that hood and maybe the tractor

My great uncle Herb Clemans is listed on find a grave and buried in Lavina MT @@wendystandiford7676
We know of a ghost town in SD that has an old mobster hideout... rumors tell the story of hidden Tommy guns and such in old outhouses... we are not allowed to disclose the area though.
A correction: my grandfather was Diamond Joe Thorne and Edwin was his brother. Also buried in the cemetery are his other brother Rufus and his wife Lydia. Thank you for taking us on a tour of what is left of Capa. Diamond Joe had the school built to educate his children….some of them are in the vintage picture of the school house. Diamond Joes cattle ranch was the largest west of the Mississippi.
Thanks, really miss South Dakota and the Midwest and its people. You are really blessed to be living there.
Looks like I got in on the ground floor of a great channel!
