Jeff, with the families that have had power in that area for so long, it is likely that one of their relatives was on whatever was the town council at that time and had a secretive dig done with a buddy or two and for hush money, it was gone and never known. If it was found during a renovation, it would have been tossed into the treasury and used for something but with family in that town and seeing how things run now, if they were anything of the same then, it was gone shortly after the note came to light if not found before then.
 

HA! Ppl on the Woodstock, Va. "Council" at that time were PROBABLY all family-related; it happens... just "google" ppl on the Woodstock, Va. Town Council, Feb., 1914... HH! Good Luck!
