More from the Virgin Confederate Camp Site

[genlee]

Well as civilman1 has stated I did have a nice save today, after having a rather dull butt freezing day. I managed to find one 3 ringer and a beat up "SNY" buckle with all the attachments, just beat up by the plow.

I am also including in this assortment some of the finds I had from the last hunt there.

And as usual I am still trying to get my partners to photo their finds so I can post them here as well.

But any how the first images are from today and the rest will be the buttons and the Georgia T-Base three ringer I found with a nap sack hook.

I had a blast and I am glad Joe found some relics.

And please believe me when I tell you we have found about 150 bullets and 12 buttons three buckles and other assorted relics so do not let me meager assortment full you.

Interestingly enough we know what units were there. The 5th North Carolina and the 11 Virginia along with Mooreman's Battery, as I also found a dropped Richmond Arsenal cannon fuse across the road from where we are hunting.
