Thanks guys. Went back today and nabbed a no date SLQ, 1950 Washington, and a 1919 Merc. I have pulled all sorts of coins from over a 150 year span from this small church yard. I checked a map that dated back to 1891 and there was a hotel across the street from this spot. It shows a house was on this spot in 1891. The church was built in 1925, most of the stuff I find there predates the church and town. Town was incorporated in 1911, prior to that it was just part of the township. This is a great spot that has turned up MANY really nice coins of all varieties, jewelry, and religious artifacts, from over many decades.

As for the soil, this particular spot is VERY kind. The rest of my area is mostly red clay, shale, iron ore, etc. Highly mineralized and can really eat up a coin.

I use a T2 SE. The LC's were in the 10"-11" range and the dime/token was around 9".

Neat seated! Sounds like you site or town might of originally been a stage coach stop during the 1800's. Might of had more structures (black smith, tavern, ect) that pre date your 1890's map. I would be pounding that area.
