Nope, my family bought this land in the 60s. It is before their time here. What I find here is mostly a mystery to me. But research of the land tells me there was a huge farm home on the adjacent property back in the 1940s maybe later and in from of the property was another property with a house dating back into the late 1800s. I'm guess people camped and hunted here as there is no homes I see recorded on here but I find items from 1890s through 1950s spread out on the 20 acres. I focus on two areas where i find a lot of stuff. The two areas have ash layers so either trash was buried and burned here or a property that wasn't ever recorded was here at one point. I also know about a mile from this property is where a old school house was located back in 1890s. In old maps I see there was a heavily tree filled area on my families property in the 1920s and in that area I find a lot of things kids may have carried around so I think it was the hangout area back when they'd cut through the field and the trees where there. I come up with all kinds of theories as I dig here.
Could be may have found bits of it over the years. I've got lots of gears, pocket watch parts, and clock parts for some reason those are all over the place
Yours is cool wish mine of been complete, mine is missing the letter dial and back pin mechanism
