Coordinates lead me to someone's yard on the edge of a lake near a dead end road named Swansons Landing. There's an RV park nearby but I don't think this is a settlement per se. wizzito | say hello! 01:34, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep but rewrite This is mainly just hyperlocal coverage about a family cleanup effort. Part of this article is useless for notability purposes (announcement of a boat ride), but the historical material is. This is a useful source. This has some historical material. Solid piece about a historical marker here. This also contributes to notability. There is more coverage here as well. Not a community, but passes WP:GNG through coverage from it as a historic steamboat landing and early rail point. Hog Farm Talk 03:06, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I added a reference from Handbook of Texas. The references found by Hog Farm should also be added. Eastmain (talkcontribs) 03:25, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep meets our WP:NGEO guidelines. As an inland port this area passes "Named natural features" Here is an article showing the historic marker. Lightburst (talk) 19:48, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep; A newspaper search concludes that Hog Farm beat me to clipping all of the relevant articles. The sources mentioned above clear GNG, regardless of whether it was an inhabited place; it should definitely be expanded with these sources (rather than the AfD simply closing, where the sources languish for another 10 years until someone nominates it a second time)... jp×g 23:33, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
