Fort Lonesome, Florida
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fort Lonesome is a unincorporated, rural ghost town located in Southeastern Hillsborough County, Florida 36 miles southeast of Tampa. Its location is also east of the Little Manatee River State Park. A saw mill plant briefly revived the area with a few houses and three stores in the early 1930s. It was short lived. A fire destroyed the mill and eventually the "town" deceased. Today, it's mainly a farming region.
