Is an understatement!LAWDY!
Well while you are proving things, where did the information you posted about the Beale Party's gold was 14K (60%) this silver a little purer and both smelted into bars by sand box casting originate?Well I can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am correct. Therefore I can prove that you are wrong. So I guess that being said you can not prove me wrong. I am not going to give you the facts just to prove you are wrong. You will have to find it on the Internet and then you can prove that I am correct. Good hunting.
I haven't posted in awhile because I was chasing a very long and difficult lead.
Here is the bottomline: Franklin, Rebel, Etc, I've gone far further and farther than any of you and here is the hard truth that I've discovered: the NSA solved the Beale in the 1970s. That's why they 'stopped' working on it. They promptly turned around and declared it fake - why, who knows - ask them. Whatever was to find they (or the USG generally) have. How do I know this? After a very long hunt I found a little bird who would know who was willing to talk to me.
You can keep on working as long and hard as you would like but I'm here to tell you that the pot of gold has already been taken you're better off going after KGC or literally anything else.
This however raises an interesting question about my good buddy ECS. I never understood why someone would sit on a thread and constantly repeat the same false statement that it was 'just a story'. So I have ia serious question, which I hope the moderators won't ban me for: do you work for the NSA ECS?
If so, why not just tell us you guys solved it and to work on something else, instead of having us waste time? I don't care that you guys have the hidden confederate gold, I care that you wasted my time.
Everytime I do, someone claims I am arguing or committing TN crimes and misdemeanors.... ECS can speak for himself...

A good question, ECS...are you working for the NSA...hmmm? Can you, will you, advise? Thank you.
ECS...? Oh, and by the way, the Discovery of Beale is not, I repeat it, not an allegory. The real deal, man.
Bump per Old Silver requestThe mother of James Beverly Ward's wife was raised right across the road from Buford's Tavern at the Brown House. It was an ordinary for people to stay at also. Paschal Buford's wife was the daughter of Isaac Otey and he was a Virginia State Senator. All kinds of connections between all of the players in the Beale Treasure story. James Beverly Ward's brother in law ran a tavern or ordinary at Buford's Gap the one that stood on the West side of the Gap. There is a photo of it in Edward Pollock's book, Sketchbook of Lynchburg. Another Buford had a tavern or ordinary on the East side of Buford's Gap where the spring is beside the road today. The tavern stood between US 460 and the railroad tracks. Maybe TJB was referring to this Buford's instead of Henry and Paschal Buford. That tavern may have been owned by Thomas Buford. The old Indian trail crossed near here and ran across the spurs of the Blue Ridge into Botetourt County to Brugh's Mill in Nelson County. The Brugh's Mill is a likely place for TJB and party to have stayed at. The Mill was later removed behind the Buford's Tavern and up on Roanoke Mountain and is now called Mill Mountain. They have a zoo up there. George Radar Brugh was Proprietor of the Planter's Hotel in St. Louis, MO and it was with him that Thomas Beale left the letter to be delivered to Robert Morriss in Lynchburg, Va with a ten year waiting period. The envelope had on it "To Be Delivered June, 1832" signed in small handwriting along the bottom edge Thomas J. Beale. George Radar Brugh and his traveling companion were killed at the Blackhorse Tavern on Tinker Creek in Roanoke, Virginia by Ebenezer Nelms, proprietor and a member of the TJB original party in 1817. He was wounded by James Purcell while mining the gold in the New Mexico Territory and returned home to stay in 1819. He later died falling down the stairs of the Blackhorse Tavern. Many believed he was pushed by the ghost of George Radar Brugh.
BUMP per Old Silver requestRead the book by Claudine Fulton Ellis. There were a lot of Planter Hotel's. I believe they may have had one in Richmond and Lynchburg? George Radar Brugh was proprietor of the Planter's Hotel in St. Louis, Mo. There was a portrait of him hanging in the lobby of the hotel. TJB must have paid him handomely for him to take a companion and deliver the letter personally to Robert Morriss. All though he never made it. Yes Claudine Fulton Ellis saw the letter and it was in a family Bible in the attic of the Blackhorse Tavern with about one inch of dust on top of it. She may not mention all of this in her book. I heard it first hand from her.
