History
on a Pinhead
A thriving town around the time of the Civil War, Aiken was said to
once have a population around 1,000.
It had already become a ghost town in the 1950s when it became one
of several towns flooded in the creation of Lake
Belton.

The name of this
former town was AIKEN. It was referred to as Old Aiken by old
timers when I was young; there was often talk about it. - Lane Chaffin,
