    1840 home hunt

    Mentioned finding a saber hook for the Knights Templar. This happened a couple years ago. Just thought I'd share a pic of it. Yard was full of Indians, about 15+, along with a couple barber dime, couple Washington, Merc, gold fill woman's pocket watch, signet gold ring, lead toy soldiers, toy cars, favorite being an early tin pickup truck. Anyways had permission first from the 90 year old woman who lived there alone. Then from her son after she passed. Since then it's been vacant waiting the demolition truck as the family sold the property. Waiting to hunt again after site is all torn up. Original pool was removed, and replaced in the early sixties with another in ground pool. I suspect more is there. All my Indians were from the late 1860s to the early 1880s. What a yard!

    Thanks man, and it was. Must have been a lot of activity in that yard, especially with a pool back in those days.
