Just checking,you said you add two block lined privies to dig?If they are lined with concrete are you sure you want to be digging in them.If they are not very old(which block wouldn't be) they could still not have their contents decomposed.Just something to think about.Be careful.If we see block even in the fill we normally give up,but if it was making up the walls you know the bottom can't get older.Good luck in whatever you dig.

This block as it turns out is pretty old, In fact I pulled a old med out of it today I dated the bottle at about 1890-1900,from what I understand the use ended about 1930, Im sure it is old enough, the trash layer was pretty much the cap for this thing
I will post some pics of her
