Etholen is a ghost town in Hudspeth County, Texas, United States, allegedly located four miles west of Sierra Blanca.[1] Different sources claim different things about when the town was founded, but particularly it was during the 1880s.[2] Etholen never grew to more than a small railroad station on the Southern Pacific Railroad, as the population was fewer than 25 by the mid-20th century. Etholen was removed from maps in the 1960s.
