southern il find

[blessingspoint]

ok.. I have found out in the middle of the horse pasture what looks to be some used/ fired lead civil war type musket bullet. I will post some pics when I get them but what I am wondering is should I be finding these near marion IL in southern il?

Yeap - folks hunting with them too...

Welcome to treasurenet! Do you have any research that shows CW military activity in that area?

As far as I know ...no battles during the Civil war were fought on Illinois or Wisconsin soil......but muskets were used by alot of people
