Wow that opened area in the woods is so peaceful and secluded! Todd you have the best knowledge for history and have met the greatest people on your adventures! Very thankful to have found your channel! James.

Glad you enjoyed it and yes I have been blessed. I have met some genuinely great people. I've seen good and bad in this hobby, but all the landowners have been wonderful.

Keep swinging and before long you’re going to be able to reassemble that mantle clock. Really nice site. Crazy how shallow the IHP was, but you know that’s about how shallow my GWB was. I love this hobby! It’s like a box of chocolates…..

Todd, congrats on all your finds so far on this old site. Hope you an your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday. If your not on the home site, your very close. An definitely an old native site with all the piles of rock in the one area. An you are close to the other native site. The one find does look like a barrel ring from an old musket. What will you guys uncover next ? Hard so say but so far the finds are awesome/amazing. They all point to early habitants/people/natives. If only the woods could talk. Lol. Todd have an awesome weekend. An we will catch you on your next history,story, adventure. 😁👍👍

Hey Eric I filmed it and will release it probably around Christmas. I end up finding a 1732 KG2 and many buttons and shoebuckles.

Hello from Knoxville my friend. Loved the video. I remember as a boy going through the brush to get to the big woods. We would walk up the creek in the summer if the water was low. That’s an old house site. I hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving. Say hello to them for me.

Kewl place! I went to school with a guy named Peacemaker whose family lived in Martinsburg back in the 70's. Not sure if a relationship of any kind but really didn't know exactly where you were detecting. Nice artifacts!!

@AppalachianHistoryDetectives 7 ай бұрын

I believe they would be related. I'm not that far from Martinsburg really and there aren't many Peacemaker's around.....I couldn't even find them going back that far so I think they are recent (after 1800) immigrants to the area.

@beepseatsfindingfoodtreasu8756 8 ай бұрын

You're on a home site. Looks like its an old war verterans homestead. Is there an old cemetery in the area? You might be in luck and find out who he was. They would usually have made him a headstone. That would tie things up neatly. And put a name to the homestead.

@AppalachianHistoryDetectives 7 ай бұрын

I do find some interesting things here coming up in another upcoming episode. I went back and found a P53 Enfield butt plate and in a prior video looking for this place I found a Louisiana button.

I find this all so fascinating. Can you confirm ownership through the county records at least as far as to the original land patent? Thanks for bringing us along.

@AppalachianHistoryDetectives 8 ай бұрын

You can and we did. Spent an afternoon going back through old land records to locate the approximate location for this house. The land was acquired by the current owner in 1921.

@rolandtomkellam9306 7 ай бұрын

Todd, around the 6 minute slot, I saw something that has been postulated to be a sign of Bigfoot. Isn't that a 3 or 4 inch circumference tree that has been snapped off and let fall in a certain direction. I don't think snow would have broken that small tree and it is also too big for a human being to have done it. Kind of makes you think when you are out in the woods.
