Hey Nova, good to see a post from you in the Ky forum! I have dug several privies and water wells and they are exciting to say the least. You're gonna have fun! Let us know what you come up with. I have that How To Locate Privy "book" if you need some reference material. Be safe at it for sure.

Hey Nova, any chance that you can find a Sanborn or DeBeers map of your home? Some Sanborn maps show the actual privy location.....but you live out in the boonies don't you? Those maps may not have extended out into rural areas, not 100% sure on that though.....best of luck.

Hello Jamie, i need to get the password for sanborn again, they seem to change it often. I actually sold my Home in the Country and Now live in the historic district of Bardstown. There was alot of activity right in my area including CW soldiers that were camped right here on my property. So it might be really interesting what's in the old privy hole.

Me and my cousin have been trying to get into this. We have a buddy in west point who is older and wants to get our feet wet but he feels bad alot I think and puts it off every time we set a date.
