Upstate NY Cobelskill,Warnersville,- Klock's Field Cache!.....
Im pretty much OK'ed to search,but no real info about serious location can be found by me.......

I have pretty much free roam of the old "STROBECK" land,or any info about the Strobeck house where they threw a Tory in the fire place would be 100% appreacated and maybe we will put an end to this tale.........or any other tales from the area I stated above!......

This is a serious posting,.........so any info please........lol,.......

PS- already have a 75/25 split from the land owner of Klocks.......but the right info/point in direction ;) might help your pockets out.......

Try in the Recorder of Deeds office in the county seat. Recorded Deeds are public record. The deed may show the house location.

thx for the reply,---we already have the orig deed,which is on old cured deer or cow hide,this is how old the one house is.

we are going to search the dirt basement and also open up the orig fireplace which the tory was thrown in to look for a false bottom,........


thansk for the help though!... ;)
 

Try the old maps at the Library of Congress. Maps made by a guy named Martenet are the greatest. They have the names of the land owners next to the location of their house, as wells as locations of the local mills, blacksmith, wheel wright, etc... I know, I have quite a few for counties in Maryland, I don't nkow if he did any for New York state. Check him out. Good luck and remember my name!
 

Got some good stuff last time,..........gotta wait for a swamp to dry up,found the 2 trees usin binoc's..,hopfully i can get to the place in the swamp!.. :o..........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im gonna be lookin at a few sites/huntin at places that my Mothers side of the family defended aganist the french/Indians and the british since The German Palintines landed up in Cobleskill back in 1700....,theres celler holes everywhere at STN.ARB.,Also afew of the fort sites can be accesed!////////....its the I-Castles that are imposible to find......

Get ahold of me...
kinda wierd to walk the same trails they did,and hunt the places they defended and died.....
 

Cobleskills a great place to hunt. I live fairly close by and have permission to search an old field their. I've heard from locals that their is a constant flow of detectorists doing the area. I also no that this guy bob lavoy, whos retired and spends a good deal of his time detecting the area. He's quite popular this fall he has a pilot on the outdoor channel about treasure hunting. Any ways if you go to the northeast metal detectors association website you can find his number and i'm sure he could tell you more than any one else, he has alot of great connections and his own metal detector store.
 

I'm from the northeast and don't recall hearing about this cache. Anyone care to recount the story?
