Just curious where we're all from - many of you have a location filled out, but a lot do not.
Kansas City area here - town of Olathe. Santa Fe trail supply stop, and one of the older towns in Kansas. Oldest houses still standing probably from late 1850's early 1860s, but the majority of the old houses are from 1870-1900.
Have done one dig in town, and found a cobalt key mold base! Not a good start. Hoping to hit a better site this summer when I have time. My best find so far has been a crude local med dated Jan 18 1881, sticking out of the top layers of a collapsed cellar in the woods.
Anyone else near the Kansas City area? I've got some clients in E Alabama (Opelika), SE Ohio (Gallipolis), New Hampshire (Laconia), and Maryland (Clinton) that I may travel to in the next 6 months, so interested in hearing from anyone in those areas as well - I would really enjoy helping out on a dig.
