San Toy, Ohio
San Toy is a ghost town in northeastern Monroe Township, Perry County, Ohio, United States. A flourishing community in the early 20th century, it was a coal town created by the Sunday Creek Coal Company.
==History==
San Toy quickly outgrew its coal mining town size. At its peak, it had a baseball team, several saloons, a theater, a hospital, a post office, and many other various stores and schools. San Toy was practically a relic from the Wild West that grew out of the Appalachian foothills. It was a rough town where people frequently died in the saloons and streets. There were many deadly mining accidents as well. According to Addison Vanhorn, a local, "It was a tough place. If you took a walk up the railroad tracks with a lantern, somebody'd shoot it out." San Toy was a big moonshine town during the prohibition era.
On September 25, 1924, a group of disgruntled miners (probably motivated by some sort of labor and/or union issue) rolled a coal cart full of burning railroad ties into a mine. The subsequent fire destroyed the theater and hospital. The other mine in the town was closed down by Sunday Creek rather than update it.
