Ok, Let me clear a few things up for you all. About the compass readings being off, Cablava makes a good point. It is also a good idea to note here that when these maps were published in Wilkin's book, he was blamed for changing the compass points. On purpose maybe, so he could hear everyone's interpretations of the map, and have them figured out for himself, as he may have known the true compass readings. The Key/Skeleton Island Map, the Coral Island/Morgan Skull Map, Sarah Kidd's Bureau Map are one in the same island. I have a copy of the true original Key/Skeleton Island Map which was supposedly lost in a safety deposit box in Canada, along with an old painting of the island in which two large treasures did turn up, the first one in the 1950's. This island is located in Maine. That is the map I have already referenced earlier as map solved and in my archives. I'll send you all a picture of the original and painting with this post, I hope you enjoy it, I had to change it from a bmp to a jpg file and recieved a few error messages before it finally posted. The Yunnan Text may have referred to this island, but, it may have been in referrence to the Oak Island mystery. I believe the Plum Island Map dated 1768, the Moose Island Map of 1742, and the Flood Map of 1710 are all linked to Oak Island as well. Mar Del is different and Dated 1669 the year of Morgan's raid. If this is one of Kidd's maps and we find the wreck linked to Morgan, it would prove that he did know Morgan as some suggest and that he helped Morgan during the raid. We know very little about Kidd's life before he lived in New York, so this would be a nice little bit of history to add to his story. Also, some have told me they have had some problems zooming in on Google Earth and have asked me what version I'm using, I downloaded the latest version out in the fall of 2005. I hope that helps you and thanks so far to all of you.

Interesting picture, the near side is obviously the weather side but the other two sides seem to have breakers as well??

Yes, I noticed that too, although it is just a painting and the artist may have thought it looked better that way. It's located nearest Blue Hill Bay, but near Penobscot and Frenchman Bay also, so currents may possibly have something to do with that. Since this post, I have not responded to anything on this website for over a month. I've moved and have not set up e-mail at the new address to date. Probably good anyway, I was spending way to much time online. I have been super busy on a few sites, and due to the overload am at the library printing flyers to start a metal detecting club for my area. I will at some point post my progress on each area I've been working on and show the findings. Hopefully with the help of all the individuals in this group the findings will astound you all, as I will keep the posts going when E-mail gets set back up, but at this time, it is not a high priority. If you are in need of anything, and to answer all questions you can reach me or my hunting partner at (814)355-0912. This keeps this the quickest for me. Thanks. ~Michelle
