To Quote a Quote "One BIG Button"
After a lot of research I was able to locate the site of the Draper Valley Academy which was established in Pulaski County Va. in 1873.
The Academy was located on 40 acres of land and was in operation before free county schools were opened.
Today I searched about 1/2 acrers and recovered a large button. The button appears to be made of brass and measures 1 1/2" across. Now that's big. There are no markings on the back of the button. A flower type pattern is on the front and the boarder around the button has small hearts. The button was found at 9".
Any help identifying the button would be appreciated.
