Hello All,

I live in Brevard, North Carolina and I am interested in any stories, legends etc. that pertain to lost or buried treasure in this area.

Thanks in advance for the help.

A good starting point is UNITED STATES TREASURE ATLAS by: Thomas P Terry It is actually his life's research, by state, bound in ten volumes.
North Carolina is in volume 7. You can get the set, or just the volume 7, or check out your library. It is a very good starting point, but you have to learn to follow thru with your own research. Good luck, Frank...

He did NOT list the caches he thought were found or phony. When he looked for a cache he set a time limit before he started. He also included a list of ghost townes. It is a 10 volume set listed by states in order and includes maps with the cache areas marked. Frank...
