Ephesus, Georgia

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Smyrna, Tennessee

Sardis, Mississippi (I was raised near there)

There are several Laodicea’s in different countries, but apparently none in the USA.

And only one Thyatira that’s still in Turkey, now named Akhisar (”white castle”).

Apparently there are no Pergamons any more............
