B,
Who is Matt? Who said they saw the Stone Report? Bob Corbin only said that he spoke to the FBI Agents, and they said that it was the opinion of the FBI that the stone maps were at least 100 years old.
I have heard two versions of what happened. In one, the FBI took the stone maps to the University of Arizona, and in the other, they went to the University of Redlands, Ca. I have been unable, so far, to verify either version, so I have reserved judgement on that part.
As far as having maps. If we follow the logic of your statement, then why bother to make maps at all? I mean if the family knows where their treasure is hidden, why bother? Easy. It is for those that follow. In case dad dies, then someone else can go behind him, and use the knowledge to recover what was hidden? Follow the logic:
1. Going North to the location of the fist stone. Keep the heart stone in possession at all times.
2. When you caravan into the mountains every Fall, if you don't need the stone maps, then don't dig them up or use them. Leave them be. If you need them, dig them up, and write down whats on them. On the way out, destroy what you have written. Hide the stone maps in such a way that each one leads to the next.
If they are authentic, they seem to have been VERY successful at keeping their secret! HAHAHA If they were fakes, I have said all along that they were most likely made by Reavis, and he was busted before being able to use them to bolster his case. When he was arrested, whoever held them may have just dumped them all in one spot where they lay for about 70 years until 1949 when they were found.
