1st - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Mackeysburg lumberjack! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forum: Select Your Area.... for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).

2nd - I moved ya from HELP! over to TREASURENET BY LOCATION > SELECT YOUR AREA.... >PENNSYLVANIA! for more exposure.

Welcome to Treasurenet !!
Can you be more specific?
Are you looking for a specific road, home, saloon, church or what?
Is there a proper name for what you are looking for; like Howard's Hardware Store or ?

What do you really want to find? Study the treasure leads in this section of the forum. There is a method to how these old articles are found, many have never been published and are forgotten over time. Determine your key words for your search in old newspapers. You will be surprised what you discover.
