Where do we get our probe rods?
Go to the website below, and scroll down. There is a weird probe with a wide tip and the top of the page. IT’S NOT THAT PROBE. The standard starter probe is a 4 foot rod with a small welding bead at the end. This is not a paid promotion.

Where do we find the maps?
You can go to the library of congress website and type in “sunburn map” or “plat map” and then the name of the town or city. Most town maps from across the U.S. are not on the site, so there is no guarantee, and they can sometimes be hard to find. You can also try the same keyword search in your state archives website, which will likely produce better results (especially for smaller towns).

I am envious of your bottle digging. I dug a vacant lot in Leesburg, Fl that belonged to a 1880 Lumber Baron. My best finds were several Warner Safe bottles. The late Roy Singer said normally a digger may find one and we dug 8. His prized finds were two pottery jugs that were in perfect condition. Normally these were found broken. The Baron was wealthy, jugs were emptied and discarded. I found a couple pharmacies bottles and presented them to the local historical society. They had photographs of the pharmacies and I donated two bottles for those two photos. You’d thought I handed them 2 bars of gold. I did that dig when in my 30’s, now I am in my 70’s and crippled. Keep doing those videos, love them.

Glimpse is all you really get out of the dig. Don't make the mistake of carting home any of that trash. There isn't a single item of any value in that pile from the trash pit. Fun hobby, but the notion that you're going to find something of value (that isn't broken) is a pervasive myth.

My in-laws dug bottles during the 70s&80s Both very recently passed. There are hundreds & hundreds of bottles in their estate. Many were dug in downtown Portland, Oregon during major building. Many early buildings were torn down to make way for new high rise buildings. The amount of collectibles is staggering. Yes the sites of old out houses were always a treasure trove of old bottles. May they both rest in peace.

You mentioned the wire embedded in and overgrown by the oak tree. I couldn’t actually see the perspective you saw the wire from, but you implied that when the wire was attached the attachment point was much lower. That’s not likely. A tree generally gets bigger around and it grows taller, but it grows taller by adding to the very top only. Each point on a tree stays at the same height throughout its life. If you attach a wire to a tree today, it will be at the same height 100 years from now.

It had a double lable, so the under label is mint, from 1911 I believe. I saved them, but just stuck in a box in the shed now, ha.

I find your channel fascinating. Your knowledge is far and wide. I'm so happy you put the actual historical info in the upper right corner as you go through your finds. It helps us learn too! thanks for doing that! What i find interesting is that from what i gather by living here in the deep south, people that had outhouses never put "trash" in their outhouses. They had another pit/area for all the breakables and they burned all burnables. I was told that all the trash put in an outhouse would contribute to it filling up faster so they didn't do that. I wonder why up north it was done differently? Great channel....fun fun, digging for history.

@cferguson3368 Ай бұрын

Actually, the fork he showed is often called a Civil War fork because the forks were commonly carried by soldiers as the military expected soldiers to carry their own mess kits. They typically date pre1880s. They were more primative in making & style, made to be sturdy, & also used by folks traveling to the West, other explorers, etc. The embellishments are pewter. The fork with 3 prongs was less expensive than the one with 4 prongs. A more affluent person would have a 4 prong fork; if military, an officer.

I recently moved to a farm from 1929. I don’t think there was an outhouse here (unless there was a home here prior to the 1929 house and barn) but there was an outdoor cistern. They dug most of the stuff out and filled it in so I’ve been digging in the pile of junk. They also burned/buried a bunch of stuff in the woods behind me. I’ve found some early glass bottles along with iron farm stuff. It’s so fun!!!! I love this channel!!!!! There’s two properties near me that is now MNDNR land and I’m going to go see if I can tell where the houses had been and look for where the old poopers were 😁

They found at one end of a huge ravine, a massive dump. From what I gathered from the old timers nearby, several farms used this one end since settling there in the 1800's. Tried to clean this 'dump' up as much as possible- mainly the cans/jars of chemicals, over three years. Some weekends, hauled a ton-literally-off to the county treatment dump. I kept many, many 'pretty' bottles/jars/glassware, including blues and amber smaller containers. Some had embossed info, a boatload of varying booze bottles(pints mostly) and canning jars, and perfume complete with glass stoppers. Wish I knew more about them then, to have been more careful!
