Very cool finds J.D. The peices at the top look like parts of a harmonica, not too sure about the others but nice finds anyway!

Hello JD, Very nice finds indeed. I like finding those Camp dropped coins! For that matter I like finding anything of interest!
I can make out the Knapsack "J" Hook, the long slender piece with the long slot is off an Air Organ, the lower right brass ring could be off a Knapsack and I'll need close ups of the other items you need assistance with.
Thanks For Showing Us & Continued Good Luck, HH, Roger

I've found several of these in various lengths at different sites. I thought that my artifacts book is where I saw and read about these.....but I didn't find it there a few minutes ago. I've did a Google search a few times trying to find what they looked like without luck. It's not a harmonica! I'll have to research more and ask questions (can't remember where I saw them shown several year ago) :banghead: . Roger

I know of a couple of local towns that had scumishes during the CW but can't find anything on them. One of the towns no longer exists, and I can't even pinpoint were the town was. Carrollton, Ar is the town I can't find, and I've been down every road I can think of out there. I'd love to find more information about my area!!! Boone/Carroll/Newton Counties. If anyone has any info, that would be GREAT!!!!!!!!!!:bthumb:
