Old House

[shanegalang]

This old place is near the levee on the Mississippi River south of Baton Rouge. I detected there for a short while but didnt find anything. The property is for sale so I imagine someone will buy it and take the old house down.

I seriously thought I would have found something there, at least a clad zinc cent or SOMETHING. I starting to think that whoever used to live there was to poor to have money to loose!!!

Back then even men carried coin purses and they were very careful even with a penny so they didnt do like now days when people leave coins in pockets, it got washed and fell under the clothes line. Makes me think I need to go ck my line again!

Dang....didn't think of that granny! I can go back, its not to far away at all. I concentrated around the front porch. And under a big oak or two that are out there. I need to imagine where the clothes line would have been. Out the back door and ?? What would you all suggest? Any particular way the lines would have run? I imagine parallel to the house as my grandmas was? I admit I didn't spend alot of time there, it really needs a good checking. Thanks for the tip.

Your welcome, I always look for where a clothes line might have been, at my house (tgis where my grandparents raised my mother) theres a sidewalk and the line runs from about 5 feet from the back door straight out to the ally gate.

I'd look for where they dumped their trash or where the outhouse may have been.
