Abandoned house in Seligman, Arizona
Hoyle Mansion, built in 1887.  Watt Hoyle was the owner of a highly profitable mine in the area and built this house for his fiancee.  However, she refused to move to White Oaks.  Hoyle lived in the house until 1892, when he sold it and moved to Denver.

Dawson, New Mexico was founded in 1901 to house miners working the coal mines.  In 1913 and 1923 there were mine explosions in which 383 miners total were killed.  The Dawson cemetery has a special area full of white crosses showing where the miners were buried.  The town itself is on private property, so we weren't able to get any photos of the buildings.
