My New Permish

[Bob38]

I recieved a new permission last friday at a place I drive by going to work everyday. Based on my research a early homestead existed there at one time but it was all grown over for the past couple of years and needed a good brush-hogging. Months and years went by and finally it was mowed down decent enough to make a good swing.  About 5 years ago I was going over aerial photographs and 1900 survey maps and marked over 20 locations in notheastern Oklahoma. One of them juat happened to be a block and a half from my office. Made a call to the owners and he gave me permission. This past Sunday I found a sword belt plate. We have had some Civil War activity around here but nothing like Virginia. So Im very fortunate to have found this.

Excellent find! Those plates are pretty valuable. 👍 I can feel the frustration, I'd have asked if I could mow the place, but that's me. 😀 Good luck on your continued searches.

I have recieved permmision on several occasions by offering to mow the property. Its a win win situation for everyone. However on this property it needed to be brush hogged. Now I know where the hotspot are, I can take my brushcutter out there and spend about an hour knocking down the stuble.
