There used to an industrial spur from Forrest, Arizona to this place, but in spite of an array of black squares on old enough topos which look like a town, aerials show that this was always and only some sort of industrial concern (a lime plant, various references tell me), and not a settlement. There is some reference to the place in historic discussion of the rail line (the plant was the last customer on the line) but I'm not seeing that as giving notability.

  • Delete Blatantly not a populated place, not evidence of notability. Reywas92Talk 08:22, 20 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Forrest, Arizona where I added a mention. It is not clear where the "200 families" mentioned there lived, whether in Forrest itself or along the spur, so it could have been considered a discrete populated place. An article on the lime plant can always be split from there in the future. Note that this shows Forrest and Paul Spur were distinct unincorporated communities.----Pontificalibus 15:18, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I am OK with this. When checking this out I found reference to a cemetery, but everything seems to show this area as an annex to Forrest. Mangoe (talk) 04:14, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
