Exploratory hunt yields loads of buttons IH harmonica reeds and door knob all within 20 yards of one another where their was no home listed on my map, needless to say I will be going back to grid off that field. I also posted in what is it looking for info on the buttons

Buttons look 1830 to 1840ish.

Assuming Baltimore County... probably pre-Sidney 1850 map.

Nice.

The buttons are in the right range for a later large cent, or maybe a seated.

(and I love any old relics from that era anyway)

I usually work Baltimore, Harford and Carroll Counties.

I agree, looks like a promising site.
