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: It looks like the exploit bots I decided to have fun with by streaming osmarks internet radio™ at are just dropping the connection when I do that. Sad!
gollark: Visit osmarks.tk, so I can somewhat obsessively analyze your traffic™.
gollark: And someone on something which... inconclusively looks like Safari and Chrome on an Android device, but is also seemingly an actual browser... visited SPUDNET, but didn't log in.
gollark: This is immensely bizarre. Someone is visiting osmarks.tk with what looks like (based on user agent & traffic patterns) to be an actual browser, from the USA.
gollark: I will add it to your psychological profile.
