Not at all clear what is going on here. At the supposed location, there is an "El Rita St", really just a short shared driveway for a cluster of a few houses. It's right next to the railroad, so possibly a rail spot, but I also found a reference to an "El Rita Cafe" in Keene (which this could be considered part of) damaged badly in a 1945 flood. GNIS is sourced to a 1947 DMA map; it doesn't show up on topos. Perhaps Durham explains what was here, but at the moment this fails verification. Mangoe (talk) 17:07, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Under the entry for Keene, Durham states there was once a place named El Rita near the Keene post office. Durham says place is marked on the Cummings Mountain (1943) quadrangle. No indication that it was a community and nothing else to indicate that it was ever notable. Glendoremus (talk) 20:11, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
