History

Lattasburg was originally called West Union, and under the latter name was platted in 1851.[3] The present name honors Ephraim Latta, an early settler.[3] A post office called Lattasburgh was established in 1867, the spelling was changed to Lattasburg in 1893, and the post office closed in 1905.[4]

gollark: There's some sort of weirdness where my laptop sees the main server, the HNode™ sees said server also, but my laptop and HNode™ cannot see each other.
gollark: I wonder what happens if I put this on the HNode™, which SOMEHOW is not accessible from my laptop.
gollark: I'm trying to rewrite multicast-chat but actually working and in python.
gollark: Ugh, 🐝 networking, what is this even doing.
