Knowing is extremely limited. We are limited by what is at our disposal. The OI stories do no deal in even that. They would want you to close your eyes to what little we can sill know that is sufficient enough to discredit even the origin stories. There are no flood tunnels. You are suck in a fictitious narrative.how do you know it all ? nobody knows what happened on oak island but YOU..... do who dug the tunnels ? who built the roads and most of all.....WHY explain yourself....
The main dividing road and lot boundaries which all the mystery features relate to date to 1762. Some of the earliest Smith cove works date to 1753-59. We know who is responsible and when that was done. We know the English colonial period there starts in 1763. We know more than enough to discredit the origin accounts of 1795. Those alleged events are lacking in being based in reality. It takes only a bit of knowing to do that, not perfect knowledge. It's so small a body of knowledge that there is no excuse for you to not be aware of it.
The backassward idea that holes in the knowledge of absolutely everything that happened in colonial times are sufficient to protect the stories from scrutiny is the Graham Hancock approach to safeguarding fiction.
Pre English, there were French colonials in that region since 1632. Before that it was seasonal grounds for a native population. Those are things to know. Commercial activity on OI predates 1795, so all the pre searcher horseshit that is magnified is exploiting your lack of knowledge about it. Casper Wollenhaupt, owner of lot 18 prior to 1795, was a prominent German merchant from nearby Lunenburg. He was an importer of textiles and various wares. The Smith's Cove end of the island was the working end of that island.
Is all you know perhaps given to you by biased self deluded writers of fiction? I know if people who have library shelves full of that stuff.
