Old is my gold

[tomytye]

I have 4 Indian trails/ox cart roads I hunt a lot. First two pics are oxen shoes and an ox horn knob. Found the knob last weekend. Everything in pics is probably pre 1700, maybe some up to the revolution. Second pic is a woodworking machine tag that the company went out of business approximately 1870. A plumb bob found 14”-16” deep next to stone foundation on a house built in 1740. And the last is some type of teaching aid at the site of an old schoolhouse that along with the church, the meeting house and a bunch of homes were board by board disassembled and moved 5 miles down the mountain in 1780-ish as they kept getting snowed in on top of the mountain. Old is my gold!!

Dig everything! Coins often can hide near iron.

One of the residents of the town up top was John Adams. As in our second president.

Well, this makes the extra-historical and maybe even right for a museum display.
