Hi All,
I recently posted in a Thread in this Forum about detecting in Virginia and noted that I was interested in Hosting people here on my Farm which is part of "Ancestral Patent Lands" my family has had since 1679. Well, as it turns out I was contacted by a member of this Forum from Ohio about possibly a day visit during their trek of the Eastern states culminating in a visit to the Nations Capitol. Dennis (not sure of his screen name) and his companion will be arriving later this week (March 23rd) and bringing a PILE of equipment. My only stipulation with this visit of course, is to reserve the right to keep any artifacts that belonged to the family. I promise to be very fair in this. The previous Plantation house burned down around 1900 and contained gold and silver coins that were never recovered. The debris lies just beneath the surface adjacent to the current house. Civil War artifacts have been found on the property by my Uncle with a metal detector years ago but the property hasnt been searched for years. Here are a few pics of the property and I will post more during the visit as well of any finds if any. If everthing works out well and there are thing to find on this trip, I will concider Hosting a larger or possibly a Club group visit in the future.
