Calvert Texas sight

[texan connection]

I have recently gained permmission to hunt a sight in Calvert Texas not a stones throw from Virgina Park (currently off limits) I am spliting the finds with the owner who has the property 4 sale, I would welcome some company but must understand there is a gentelmans agreement here he pretty much gets the relics we get the coins. It is about 2 acres and will take some time, it is surronded by bed and breakfasts and has civil war troop encampment history. If any one is intrested please contact me I will be starting this weekend.

4 top relics have been a dated phonagraph part 1905, a 10 quage shot shell, a pocket watch (in pieces) and a old decorative box looks early 1900 or b-4. still workin it bettwen other sights.

Out of curiosity...how did you do in Calvert ?? I've hunted for years in the area and have found some wonderful stuff. The area near the Brazos is rich in history !

TEXAN Connection,

Got a buddy who's a native there in Calvert, he kicked up a civil war revolver on his property (probably from the garrisoned Union troops post war), we're looking to do some poking around at that place. We hit it once but the areas we really needed to get were flooded and we'll need to clear off iron trash.

If we get back out there, would be nice to say hello and have you along.

Your Calvert store stories have me jealous, I told my buddy "let me know what the deal with all those stores is, when they start renovating, we need to be there", glad you got there and are doing it right, what a great opportunity!

Happy hunting!
