A gold-rush camp, later part of Deadwood, whose name locals are said to still use.
AI-generated illustration, not a photo of this place.
Elizabethtown was among the early mining camps that formed along the gulch, named in the city archives’ walking tour alongside Ingleside and Deadwood City. Each camp grew around mining claims and together they became the basis for the later city.
Marker text reports that although Elizabethtown is now officially part of Deadwood, locals still use the name for the neighborhood. We could read that marker only as a search excerpt rather than on the marker page itself, so its current boundaries and usage remain unconfirmed. The placement shown here is approximate and should be checked against the city’s archives before you rely on it.
