[size=x-large]THIS TIME we dicided to seach just north of the old farm stead and about 30 ft from the house my detector was getting a signal it was a nails but i was still getting a signal from the hole so digging deeper a large 5x7 iron plate came out then we noticed some ash and melted glass so we widened the hole and out was coming Redwing stoneware from 1897 -1906 eara milk bowls butter churns tones of nails burnt morter and spaled foundation stones all the pottery had avedenc eof intens heat . forks and spoons tools not one thing was from the modern eara the spot whear we then probed is 15 x 25 ft also brick was coming out It all tells a tragic story of the farm burning to the ground between 1897 and 1906 i dated the stoneware, as well as a medicine bottle that was badly melted , I figure they whear out in the feild trying to get the harvest in and some wind blew a lamp over or a coal got lose from the wood stove soon they seen the smoke rising ohh no , the house , they all ran as fast as they could but it was to late they could not get near the flames , to hot all moms dishes dads tools all the silverware the 4 gal butter crock they slept in the barn that nite , whith the cowsand drank from thear utters ,, they salvaged what foundation stones they could and filled it in But back in those days they had good nighbors and they had a house raising and soon things got back to normal again and they had many good crops the end[/size]

A tragic story that it is.
Looks like lots of item (charred) by that fire.
You may get lucky and find the coins in that location.

well actually in east bethel thear was a homestead that was raided by the indians but that was in 1856 it so frightened the quaker setlers they all moved but the house was rebuilt and and the town was named east bethel , now i dont blame the native americans , becaise we lied to them and sqrewed them over so much and it was a reproach on cristianity God expects us to keep our treatys and breaking them can bring a curse on the land as it is this day massive forcosers farmers losing thear farms how does it feel ?? not to good Im not anti america but anti sin we can do wrong to no people and get away with it God will bring his vengance and he is no respector of persons
