Headed up to family land to finally check out the old homestead remains that I recently found out has been hunted previously by Gary. Spring is finally springing and although a bit muddy it was an interesting hunt. Lots of rusted junk in the ground - bits of barbed wire, crumbling sheets of what I think may have been tin, square nails, some rounded nails, short square nails that I think may be from horseshoes?, a couple of old 12 gauge shotgun shells minus the paper - Remington Repeater and a PCO League, what I think may have been a plated buckle, a fork from Wm. A Rogers 12 DWT (R) that looks silver plated?, a shoehorn shaped piece that might have been a support bracket or leg?, a thin rounded copper? cap shaped piece with an open center, a clear bottle neck, ceramic pieces... And what I think is a lot of old harness pieces? Any help identifying stuff is greatly appreciated.
The main foundation looked like it had 3 sections to it - a main room, a back room and a side room that was a bit lower than the main foundation. A circle of stones about 5 yards away must have been an outside fire pit? About 10 yards kitty corner uphill from the main house is another small (maybe 6' x 8') stone foundation that I wonder if was for animals? Past the fire pit is the "garden" where flowers still pop up every Spring. I think I may have found their dump area... I'll check that on my next trip.
Annuals that still pop up to this day.
