Sounds like some Beach Hunting, is in order <><><><>? these sites are EAST CENTRAL N.J. , Are you Familiar with the story of Jacob Fagan and his Gang, in the Pine Barrens, in the 1770's ? <> Jon Bacon, OUTLAW, Revolutionary war era, buried money on Sea Island. $150,000.00 in Gold and Silver Coins is supposed to be burried on Island Beach <>
