I know where a few of them are actually. The old church and bank are down the road from my Mom's house and the old school where my great grandpa and grandpa went, and I attended back in the early to mid 90's. Good Ole Burbank. Great pics.

The OERB was established in the mid 1990's to restore abandoned oil/natural gas well sites free to the land owner. This program is 100% paid by the producers and royalty owners of Oklahoma. The OERB has restored over 10,000 sites and is always looking for more. If you know of any sites, please submit them via our website: oerb.com. By statute we can only restore sites where there is no longer a responsible party. I can't make you any promises that we can clean them up, but we will if we can.

We bought the old school in Burbank as residence and to save it. After living in New Orleans for over 11 years I have a great love of old buildings. At the urging of locals we opened it as a bed & breakfast, internet cafe, cafe & bar (beer only) for a short time only, and mostly so that the residents here would have someplace local to go. The county here is beautiful and history facinating. Some of your information is wrong. We bought the old school in Burbank as residence and to save it.

And last night I had a dream about going back to my old home town which experienced a similar boom and bust (in this case the gold boom of the late 80s in Northern Nevada) and wandered around the dilapidated downtown area.

There were still buildings on either side of it that looked pretty rundown but had businesses of some kind in them. It fascinated me, partially probably because in the places where I grew up, there were far, <i>far</i> fewer rundown, leftover buildings like this. I especially love the old Osage family house. Wish I could find someone here to go exploring with me! I was in Red Fork recently and saw a building that looked like your eleventh picture down.
