    Nice looking NY button Killer Tn It's a 2 pc button?? I think it's in Albert's book as NY 31A. Hard to pin a date on them, but I would guess 1860's. Nice 3 ringer too.

    Hi My Fellow TH'ers
    Love finding those buttons. I just found my second NY State Militia button! They are so hard to find although my TH'ing buddies and I have stumbled into three separate encampments and pulled about 20 so far. One thing I have found is that if I did every signal I will find more good items overall. I guess that is one reason I am referred to as 'Digger-Dave'.
    Congrats on the NY button. There are a bunch of different patterns in Albert's button book so you just have to see which one is the closest match.
    Go over that area again and listen for those very faint signals.
    Good Luck
