Huge Treasure Hoard on American Soil?

Huge Treasure Hoard Hidden on American Soil?

Think it’s possible? In the coming months I’ll be releasing a new book that tells of a possible huge treasure hoard that may still exist on American soil. And “no”, this is not in novel form and it is not a work of fiction. Gold, silver, jewels, and a pile of historical documents may be awaiting the lucky discoverer of this hidden treasure cache. This book will contain the names, places, dates, lawyers, and the events that may have lead up to the forming of this huge treasure hoard. Prepare to be stunned! By the time you’re done reading The Laffite Papers you may feel the desire to embark on a treasure hunt.

“Between the months of November 1818 and February 1819, my commune had 476,000 dollars put away.”

“If God wishes to love the fifth generation to come, he will unveil the intentions and the spirit of the dead. And with my entire help!”

Several years ago I introduced a short piece titled, The Fifth Generation, which you can access at the following link: http://www.angelfire.com/pro/bealeci...Generation.htm
Since that time a lot of new information has been gathered and it will be included in the book. It’s not going to be my intention to try to sway you one way or the other, other then to say, the evidence is pretty incriminating.

It has been interesting to research. At first I thought, "not a chance", but now? A lot of really strange circumstances.

Bigscoop, that was a very interesting read.

Thank you !!!

[bigscoop]

Bigscoop, that was a very interesting read.

Thank you !!!

Thanks Natural. The book will rehash some of the same material but it's also going to include a lot more information of equal or greater interest. It's been a fascinating journey.

[NaturalJWL]

I will be looking forward to it.

You do good work.

Lafitte being Beale is indeed a possibility. Good story, and well written.
I also think that Thomas Jefferson's code wheel played a part.

The fifth generation was an early piece, since that time a lot more information has been compiled. Laffite and Beale were indeed two different people. Thomas Beale was real. And there are documents that "directly connect" these two men. All of this will be explained in detail in the book.

As a sidebar to the book, but from one of the sources used:

"Seven leagues to the west, two leagues to the north of the Spanish city of Saint Augustine, some of my officers buried a large quantity of gold under my orders. I have no knowledge of the exact spot, for they were taken prisoner and killed by warships, and their papers were destroyed." I wonder who owned this land at the time? There is still some undeveloped ground in this area.

Looking forward to reading it. I have worked on the Beale codes for years with no success. Many have attempted to decipher the Beale codes over the years and,as far as I know,no one has broke the codes.The goverment had their own code breakers trying for a while,but unless they kept it secret, they never succeeded either. I heard that they had attempted to use a super computer to try all the zillion combinations. rockhound

There's quite a bit in the book, will certainly give you cause to consider the possibilities. A lot of areas that might also be worth some continued effort.

Bigscoop, I have always wondered, after spending all this time on research, why don't the authors of these tales go out and get the treasure, or is that the last chapter? Frank

Can't speak for other authors or their work. All I can tell you is that I have put nearly everything I know about this treasure mystery in this book, and that I do believe it is "possible" that it is still out there in one form or another.
