Found on old farm

[porchdawg]

I found these items searching an old farm site. I have just started looking this site over so should be something good in the future. The home was built in 1830, I need to find some old property deeds or drawings of the farm to determine where everything was located.

Porchdawg, if the place was built in the 1830's you shoiuld have it made. Take your time. Look around the front/back door. Look around the big trees in the yard. Keep us posted...d2

You might also want to find out where the house slave quarters were. Sometimes they were kept in the basement, other times there was a small building behind the main one where the slaves lived and cooked for themselves. Should be some decent relics near that spot, plus the possible chance of finding a slave tag!

Also check with the county courthouse. They should have old plat maps showing locations of buildings, barns, etc.

Dawg: Don't ya just love those old Porches? Have you tried searching under it? Are there any out buildings to search?

Neat old hand crank for either auto or tractor. Being it has a lug socket on one end must be 1920's or so auto.

Looks like the Model A ford crank, dad used to have with his '29 coupe. The long pointey thing looks like a jackhammer drill.
