Some may remember me posting about a private park I have permission to detect.Exclusive, I might add. I have been going here for the last 4 years, almost every weekend. I have met lot of nice folks at this place and found lots of old coins and relics. Some coins going back to the 1700s. I became close friends with the caretaker of this park. He's an older gent in his early 70s. He is called the un-official mayor of the town because he knows everyone! The park was donated to the town in 1939. Before that it was a farm, going back to the mid 1800s and Im told that before that it was an indian village. Well last night I get a phone call from the caretaker. He tells me that at the historical society(HS) meeting the members got on the topic of treasures buried in the town. He tells them about me. He tells about all the interesting things I have found in the park. Some of the people wanted my number to detect their property! 200 year old houses and land that was used in the early 1700s. The cartaker asked If id be willing to get some of the items I have found together so that the people in the HS could see and feel the items from the past. I brought him the items today along with a bunch of business cards.The folks in the HS all have stories that were handed down about silver buried on their property. This town was 1 of the hubs for the British during the revolution. Lots of the folks in this town buried their valuables because they feared the British would steal it. Well this 1 woman has a story of her great grandfather buring a container of gold coins on her land. She swears its still there...Somewhere. Could be a very interesting fall, winter and spring
