Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
Hello All,

I was very active in Treasure hunting in the late 1960s and 1970s in SW Oklahoma. I knew and worked with all the remaining old time treasure hunters such as Slim Dillingham who was a partner to Joe Hunter when they found the kettle on Buzzards Roast in Cement, OK. Others include Archie Penick, Dwight Traina (Golddigger) and a host of others. You will find my name and picture in several of Steve Wilson's books as he and I are good friends.

Now that I am retired and old I have rekindled my interest and applying some of the knowledge I've learned over the past few years.

My motto is one that Wells Blevins had.. "When I left home I wouldn't have traded what I knew for a million dollars, before I got back home I'd have traded it for a good sandwich". And, so it goes...
 

Welcome back!
 

Welcome to Tnet.............. :hello:

The big thing in SW Oklahoma was the James treasure. Even Frank James and Cole Younger came down in the early 1900s to look.
