Yo! Rebel here: Anyone know about Silver Mines in the mountain areas "worked up" by Melungeons and other mountain people... we got some in Wise County, Va. (according to legends...).
I am a new member and this is my first post from East TN. We own a farm in Hancock county Tn just a few miles inside VA. Kyles Ford, and Me lungeons lived all around the farm when I was growing up. I am 54 now. There family name was Mabes from what I remember. No silver that they or we knew of I guess as they all where pretty un wealthey as we still are. Most have moved away now days. I will use my new MXT around there when Turkey season get here in a few weeks...BodashussRebel - KGC said:Yo!
