Cave found with Confederate muskets, saddles and crates

[Caches]

You’ve been trying to dig the location out of me this entire post and it’s not happening. Yes I gave a fake location because of people like you. You’ve been trolling my post this entire time starting with your comments about the boat I took to get there. Yes me and my brother grew up rough with a well for water we had to pump and a generator for electric that we only ran at night before bed. We had full range to go and do anything we wanted as long as our chores were done. We were taking the boat up and down the rivers bow fishing. Sorry we weren’t sheltered like you were and probably grew up with AC. So stop trying to troll this post and trying to find my location. You’re literally the only person on here that’s given me a hard time just cause your lil brain can’t comprehend that someone actually found something. I’ll delete this hole thread and just say forget this site cause I just joined to share what I found and to get advise cause I don’t treasure hunt but dealing with people like you i might as well of posted it on a Facebook group. I’ll get pics next weekend cause this is Easter weekend and got plans with family.

Jake, I really hope you and your brother find something valuable in that cave. Be careful man. Maybe you should have a meeting with everyone who already knows, I believe you said it was your brother and grand parents, and really drive home the need for secrecy with everyone. Sometimes just casually asking people to keep quiet doesn't do the job. They end up letting it slip because they never really understood what it could mean if someone outside the inner circle found out about it. From beginning to end, end being the successful relocation of valuable items to secure location, everyone has to keep their lips air-tight. Maybe its just abunch of rusted history in there. But you never know... There is always the possibility of much more valuable objects. I dare say even bars of precious metal. Which means you could be putting your very life on the line. When you go out there again make sure you cover up the entrance real good before you leave.

I apologize if I've come across as demanding or accusatory to you, that wasn't my intent, but as I've mentioned in the past, 11 years as an LE officer has made me very direct with my questioning, but keep in mind you came on here claiming to have found a lost cache of Civil war Guns, Uniforms, Saddles, Crates etc, which if true, would be one of the most Significant Civil war finds in the modern era!!! So you can't really be so surprised as to believe it wouldn't be heavily scrutinized would you?

I could care LESS about where it is, i was simply pointing out differences in your testimony. Seeing what you've described so far, and the attached pictures, imo it's just a dump site, which is cool, but it isn't a lost cache of civil war goods as we've already identified one of the items from around 1920, doesn't mean it doesn't have older items in it, but we know it isn't a lost cache as someone was there dumping stuff in it 70 years later still. You had a generator and well water? Hot damn, you were the one living the lap of luxury, not I. Guess what, were I grew up in Minnesota, we didn't even have well water, we hauled it in in 10 gallon milk cans from the South Fork Church a half mile down the road. We didn't even have an outhouse. I literally shat it the woods!

Are you willing to answer my questions, they are legitimate questions we all have? They don't ask anything about where it is located...

Jake, I thought I would check a map I have from 1961 titled, "Battlefields of the Civil War" from NAT-GEO to see what activity took place there in Oklahoma. I didn't realize that at the time Oklahoma was called "Indian Territory".

I've attached a scan from the map and it indicates there was skirmish at Fort Gibson.


There might be a possibility that the weapons were stashed there to prevent the "other side" from obtaining them. Good Luck and be safe!

Lots of good questions posted. Would getting a lawyer help? I've read accounts of the government sweeping in and taking everything...I hope the story is true...now I imagine this post will attract people to the area...

I agree with that assessment of Murphy's Law in action...!
If this Find is what is said to be, then this becomes a state historical site, as well, so everybody will be wanting
to get in on the deal, too - money, not esthetics and/or history...!!
I envy our finders..., What-A-Find...!

 

[DeepseekerADS]

I apologize to the OP for being the first skeptic = that's just me.

I did not wish to draw question to the finds, I just really wanted to hear the dream sh"t. In other words, tell me this is really true.

 

[Georgivs]

What happened to the pics?

 

[DeepseekerADS]

Ya just can't come on here posting banner finds in your very first posts without facing questions. I ya can't answer those questions - where does that leave us - those who wish to believe?

 

[Toecutter]

What happened to the pics?

Not sure but boy you missed out....

 

[Blak bart]

What happened to the pics?

I missed um too.....we were to late !!

 

[GoDeep]

Heres the pics:

First is a collar pin from around 1920, the second, we don't know. One poster didn't think it was musket, but maybe a pistol? There must be some gun experts on here.

I had asked if it was missing the barrel and for more pictures of it to no avail.

Technically there were 3 posted by the OP, but 2 were identical pictures.

Charlie P. said on the previous page that it could be this one...



And it does look like a possible match. Hopefully he can find one in better condition next time around.

Could be someones collection that was stashed. Good luck hope you make it back out there and recover it all. I would take a metal detector and check the floor. We have a cave here used by the confederates and before. It was a meeting place for certain locals. We spelunked the back end of it and it had names and dates. Subdivision above it collapsed it and made it unstable.
Get what you can carry the stuff out in coolers if possible to keep from tearing them up.
Caves in the day were natural storage areas.
A large stash of civil war rifles were found in a cave on Lookout Mountain years ago.

Jake, some of the members here are truly a wealth of knowledge when it comes to identifying some of items you might find in that cave. You should definitely take as many photos as possible of the entire interior and all the artifacts inside to post here so you can get some expert help free of charge. Now you know to be more careful with location clues, so why not take advantage of all the free expertise and avoid taking the extreme risk of needlessly revealing anything to additional third parties in person? And if you guys can manage to get back out there sooner it'd certainly increase your chance of overall success. Some of it may be more valuable than others. So maybe you could make a preliminary trip on Monday or Tuesday, take all the photos you can and post them here so the experts can start helping you put together a priority list for what to bring back the following weekend. The quicker the better. Looking forward to it brother. Have a nice weekend.

I have already cancelled my plans for next weekend, picked up an extra 12 pack, and a couple bags of chips an salsa.
