Fianlly got some time to explore the site of an old chimney I saw many times from a road. On the hike in I stumbled across an overgrown negelected grave site. There were many unreadable stones, one I could read said born 1802 and died 1850. There were also two more modern stones, the newest of the two said born 1865 and died 1941 but you could see that the coffins had been dug up some time ago and the holes not filled in. I thought that was strange. When I located the chimney I also saw a standing outhouse, a sealed well and a partially standing shack that I never saw from the road. I searched around the chimney and found nothing but square nails. I searched between the back of the chimney and some ornamental plants and found what looks like a broken buckle of some sort. (CW?) I also found some sort of tool with a ring and a curved screwdriver type end. I also found some old hinges and assorted iron. Before I knew it it was getting dark so I intend on going back in the near future for another look.
