Scuba... I don't have any more info than what I posted. According to Singer's book, the Rob Roy was run aground and burned by her crew at Deadman's Bay. Wreckers were awarded $528.

chagy I can be of help on this one -- the area around green cove springs used to be an very old indain village that had been there many many years --they often raided nearby areas taking silver and gold and other items of worth . -- american forces finally over ran them driving them out of the area to the southern part of the state during the seminole war era -- the rumor was that these indains buried their stashes of goods in and around their village(also they had for many many years traded with other tribes to the south getting spanish shipwreck gold and silver as well as the raided gold and silver --these indains knew that whitemen prized silver and gold and where big time traders as well as raiders ) --- long ago there was a stash of gold and silver found by the "road paving crew" while they were working on the road going thru the town in the downtown area of green cove springs many years ago--for years folks have thought there was more than the original amount unearthed near that location. (due to finding some gold -- of course they dug around quite a bit to make sure they got it all) --the "treasure map" you speak of is a copy of old map that showed the layout of the indain settlement and roads and such in the area during the time frame of the indain settlement there . --- even today folks in the area talk of treasure being buried below the street there --- ps --by the way --the bulk of the village was at a differant location-- close by --butbit away from the area of the "find" and could very well have additional treasure stashes at it.( I have a good ideal where the bulk of the village was but due to health issues, I am unable to do anything about it sadly ) ---hope this helps you out.--- if you want the location area of the village just say so, ( just throw me a coin or 2 if you hit it big time)---Ivan
Hey Ivan - my family is from the village and is 9th generation from Mornica. My dad found a ballast pile and an old anchor about 40 years ago and we leased the area in 2015. I wanted to discuss with you. Drop me a line please and thank you.chagy I can be of help on this one -- the area around green cove springs used to be an very old indain village that had been there many many years --they often raided nearby areas taking silver and gold and other items of worth . -- american forces finally over ran them driving them out of the area to the southern part of the state during the seminole war era -- the rumor was that these indains buried their stashes of goods in and around their village(also they had for many many years traded with other tribes to the south getting spanish shipwreck gold and silver as well as the raided gold and silver --these indains knew that whitemen prized silver and gold and where big time traders as well as raiders ) --- long ago there was a stash of gold and silver found by the "road paving crew" while they were working on the road going thru the town in the downtown area of green cove springs many years ago--for years folks have thought there was more than the original amount unearthed near that location.
