Do older dumps tend to be more sparse than newer ones as far as bottles go? I have a dump that ranges from the 1860s to the 1880s and has very few bottles about 1 bottle per every 2 square foot. There is lots of ash and I did find a hinge mold base. Also found a 1840s Jackson Victory button which is a big difference with the dump age. I am not used to digging dumps this old (usually I get 1890s-1920s era dumps). Has anyone had any luck finding good bottles in a dump like I described? Is there something I should be looking for to find more glass? Any tips?
Thanks,
