YEP! Peter wrote a book (now, out of print) CONFEDERATE TREASURE COVER-UP: Duty, Honor, & DECEIT. He also alluded to this in his second book, THE BEALE TREASURE: NEW History of a Mystery; TWO "Sources". Railroad Train off-loaded several coffins of "CSA" dead Rebels (REALLY Gold, Silver, Jewelry) (Thaxton, VA. I think) & buried it near-by (James River), for further transport to Lexington, Va./VMI.

Talked to PV, before he passed away about he last book, & the CSA/Beale Treasure "theory". Based on what I know about ''local" history, Civil War, etc. I BELIEVE him. R & I is STILL on-going.

 

[Rebel - KGC]

Can YOU do better...?

My "all in the Ward/Risque family" references found throughout the Beale narrative text is more plausible than force fitting a Confederate coverup conspiracy connection to a fictional period adventure treasure dime novel.
The only mention being "During the second year of the Confederate War..." makes the theory another forced fitted unrelated patchwork pieced together to support a pet theory.
While an interesting read, there is NO actual proof that ties PV speculation to Ward's BEALE PAPERS.

But the beales codes were a work of fiction. Like believing the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings books were historical fact...

Heh...

R & I is still "on-going"...

...and will continue forever with NO real resolution beyond speculation.

That is what professional US Government codebreaker Elizabeth Smith Friedman concluded in her 4 March 1938 letter to Clayton I Hart.

What...? Can you scan it...?

What...? Can you scan it...?

The date I posted was wrong, the letter to Clayton I Hart was dated 4 March 1938 and was written when Elizabeth S Friedman worked as a codebreaker for the US Coast Guard, Division of Intelligence.
A copy is in her files at the Marshall Library and it is also posted on Ron Gervais Angelfire Beale site.

 

[Rebel - KGC]

OK.

Due to the conspicuously obvious fact that NO outside sources exist that collaborate the Beale perilous adventure treasure story outside of Ward's copyrighted published pamphlet, many theories like PV's CSA treasure coverup and aftermath versions like THE HART PAPERS and Claudia Fulton Ellis's why the KEY was never delivered story continue to expand the Beale fictional tale.

 

[Rebel - KGC]

So...? Further R & I MAY just uncover info of interest, like PV's books (beyond his first one).

ONLY the TITLE of "Ward's copyrighted public pamphlet" was COPY-RIGHTED; NOT the "STORY".
