BRADDOCKS LOST PAYROLL (Circleville, Westmoreland County)

[jeff of pa]

It's said that before General Braddock got thumped by the French, he hid $25,000 worth of gold either in a river or stuffed into the barrel of a buried cannon. Either way, his foes made sure he never got back to reclaim it. So if you're in the area and have a hankering to live large, break out the metal detector - the gold is supposed to waiting for someone to dig it back up. Some spoilsports think the French grabbed it as war booty. Others think it may be buried under North Huntington development. All we know is that it's not doing Braddock any good,

Should I start at the end of Robbin Stations Road and work my way down towards the river

Wasn't this gold found when a man was digging his basement in 1885? 750,000 in gold.
