something's missing
[edit]Looking at a map raises some questions. If Katie was on her way to Ripley, which is east of Custer City, why did the detective start looking in Clinton, south-southwest? (Perhaps there was no more direct train.)
Where was Moore's house, if not in Clinton? —Tamfang (talk) 18:56, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
community?
[edit]“ | Dead Women Crossing is a small community on Deer Creek ... | ” |
Topo and satellite view don't show any concentration of dwellings, so in what sense is it a "community"? —Tamfang (talk) 18:23, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
- And what's it's population? Or is it a ghost town? Ribbet32 (talk) 03:19, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
- An unincorporated community doesn't have a population. It is too small to be tabulated by the United State Census. If it were large enough to be counted, it would be a census-designated place. Royalbroil 02:46, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

[edit]It's Dead Woman's Crossing... Not Dead Women Crossing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.90.230.2 (talk) 22:04, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- It's Women on the USGS topo map. —Tamfang (talk) 09:16, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
Missing information
[edit]The article doesn't really explain the how the town acquired the name. Did it have a different name before the murder? Why "Women" instead of "Woman"? Enquiring minds want to know! —howcheng {chat} 18:50, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
