3 hours at a defunct church grove

[jeff of pa]

While searching for new sites, I decided to
go over the Department of transportation maps from 1946 again
and today I decided on this former Grove





so I ran over and started looking for the property owner.
seemed everywhere I drove I saw this woman mowing grass.
first at the cemetery, then at the driveway to the owner of the properties house So I
introduced myself & She gave me permission.
saying there was rumor this was a church grove for this 1831 Church



before I Left she said she would like to see what I Find,
so I Promised her I'd be back & headed over











Place appears to be loaded with a carpet of Poison



& I was being watched



by Killer Cows from Outer Space







Needless to say, this place did not have any Gas rebate.
the grove was gone by the late 60's

Got some Garbage



4 Wheats

1912 1919 one with a heavy crust, and one too damaged to get a date



a Valve stem remover cap



a Half Pint Milk Bottle from

MAURER'S WAYSIDE DAIRY
MT. CARMEL PA




and 7 indians

1887 - 1889 - 1891 - 1895 - 1897 - 1900 and 18?9



went back over showed her my finds, told her I Couldn't believe
I didn't find any silver, but would be back between
late fall & early Spring to try again.
Have to wait for the poison to die off.

Not sure IF I Got any sap on me or not.
but was sweating & Rubbing my eyes allot
which worried me enough to quit early

Awesome finds Jeff! I love that milk bottle!
Is that the grove we drove by last summer on the way to another grove? Near where we saw the skunk in the middle of the day.

Nice haul on the Indians Jeff, you had a great day. Gotta be some old silver there..........Rich

[texjim]

i would have been out for that place. i still have scars from the poison ivy when we last hunted together.. awesome job...

[SaturdayThirty]

I checked Terapeak and a one-pint Maurer's Wayside Dairy milk bottle sold last June on eBay for $61. That's a great price for an old piece of glass!

Good post ,the research to permission to the hunt , awesome .... cool milk bottle to and nice indians !

[CoilFisher]

Now that is research!

Man, I can't believe you didn't find any old silvers. If you had not found that walking halve last week I would think your detector needs to go in for repair.
Incredible!
NICE TRIBE!!!!

''Way to go'' Nice finds, that sure is a cool milk bottle.

[Dig Daddy]
