So heres a house right across the street from my house. An 1870 map shows it being there and the guy who owns it says it was built in 1850. I have permission to dig if I can find the privy. This is the original section of the house, there have been additions to the left of the house, all done by my father-in-law, and during those foundation digs nothing was found so it must be somewhere in this open lawn maybe. I'm somewhat of a newbie to digging so I thought I might throw this out there to all you experts. I'm just curious where you all would start. Heres a few pictures and I also put a small video on youtube that pans from the house along the open stretch of property.
Also, would you dig the well in the backyard, it's original to the house.
Any suggestions?
