I wish I had a boat to help you out. It sounds like it could be a fun hunt.

You know, I have never recorded GPS coordinates on a cache location. I am more of a map person.
Were you referring to the castle or the trading post? Frank...

I will take either or any that may yield a coin older then 1943. Need to get out and really have no places yet. Between babysitting my grand daughter, taking care of my 2 dogs, 3 cats and home maintenence I don't have much time to metal detect let alone research. No looking for Captain Kids treasure just a few older coins. Ty

The Island is in the Susquehanna just north of Havre de Grace. I have a good idea where the fort was located on the island. It was a trading post and then a fort. Frank...

OK here's one. You live in the city I take it. I use to live on Purdue Ave in the Woodbourne Heights area off of Loch Raven Blvd and a couple blocks south of Belvedere Ave.
I never got around to getting permission to hunt it, but Purdue Ave ends at Enoch Pratt's old home. It is now ,I believe a childrens home. This should perk you up. Across from Pratts home was another mansion that I did hunt. I found a $5 gold coin there, my first gold. That was torn down and is now apartments.
So the location is Purdue Ave. & Woodbourne Ave. The city ownes the land , so being an x cop you might have an in. Good luck, Frank...

If you want an understudy please contact me. I would be very interested in making some friends to hunt with from time to time.

Well, If you know any one on Gibson Island, that Capt. Kidd cache might warrant some research. My family had a place in Arcadia and that tale was very popular many years ago. Frank...

I love the Warren area around Loch Raven and have been fascinated with old town ever since I saw the steps to nowhere in the side of the hill at Warren Cove, as a kid. The mansion foundation that belonged to Summerfield Baldwin is at the top of that hill. I have pictures of many of the old foundations in the area, including the axle Frankn mentioned. I'll see if I can dig them up and post them.
