Barberton



Founded after the discovery of gold in 1883, Barberton had two stock exchanges and many speculators, scoundrels and fortune seekers. It also had more bars and saloons than houses!
The town's most famous citizen was Cockney Liz, who auctioned herself to the highest bidder every night while strutting her stuff on the billiard table. Payment was in gold nuggets.
