Looks like a target rich environment OWK. What a nice variety of finds at the site. I see a lot more wet knees in your future. HH

A nice collection of great finds! Not too many people are lucky enough to have their own private 18th century French fort site! :thumbsup:

My family was granted the land from England for serving in the expulsion of the French, Fort Boishebert - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have not convinced my Father that he should let Geothegreek and I really see what is there yet.. hes starting to come around though.... maybe by the end of the summer we will have some sweet colonial silvers to post!
