Hidy to all. Went back to the home place Fri. Now that I have found out I had found the top part of his Confederate Reunion badge I will be spending a little time there. Here is all I found Fri.,, saw brad,, knob off old oil lamp, and look how they put U.S.of america on it,,brads,, shoe plates,, part of a small spur,, 2 more pnoenix buttons,, 2 train buttons havent ever seen one like the first one you can see the conductor in it with his arm on the side of the window the other I remember when I was a kid I might not should have said that,, another WW-1 button large one this time with writing on back,, And that is it for now,ready to go back but got a feeling it ant going to be easy. Hope yal enjoy and H.H.

I know what you mean about trying to find the other part to the confederate medallion, I've also been searching for the other half of a G.A.R. souvenir medallion I found last summer at the trash pit.
