    Cool informative video. Everyone found some neat finds. I was fortunate to find the owner of one of my good luck tokens like the Elk River Muskrat found in the video.

    Search up John Swifts silver mine. People have been looking for it for years in Kentucky. It's definitely not a mine but it's supposed to be a big cache of gold and silver.

      Very interesting. I made note of it in my notebook so next time I am at the state archives I will look for what I can! I love stories like that.

    What interesting finds! The little red car looks like it dates from the 1930s. I’m certain I used to work for a lady who grew up here. It’s a beautiful property and I appreciate you sharing this. Thank you!

      Thank you! It is a beautiful property and the owners are great and very respectable people. We have some more documentary type videos planned soon. I'm getting a new laptop soon so I can edit more effectively and produce more material. The Muskrat and I have a big Elk River Documentary to do, inspired by Tale of the Elk.

      Thanks MMMD! I haven't been doing my editing lately honestly due to frustration with my poor old computer. It is from 2016 and can barely process 4k video 😂 so it takes me excessive amount of time to edit properly. Ordering a new computer soon I hope will expedite and motivate it. Thank you for stopping by! Good luck to you as well!

    Hey guy's good seeing you and the River Rat again! Something how that IHP looks like it did the day it was dropped. That thimble with Sheriff on it, was passed around to ladies during election time! At 17:40, it looks to be a trigger guard, for a musket rifle. We cleaned a lot of veterans tombstones and reset some here. A group of us got together. A good thing for cemeteries like that, good thing to get started all around! Awesome video as always. God Bless All! (Glen). WV. Also God Bless you River Rat, for what you are trying to do for the Miller family!

      Hey Glen! Thanks for the info. We love those advertisement thimble. Chad has found a few of them now. Yeah, we may just go up there ourselves and fix it. One of the most important founders of the Kanawha valley deserves it.
      Glad to see you on here again! How have you been?

      Do you have yellow jackets up north?? We have had an extreme drought here and they have been dangerously swarming everything. I have been having some computer woes; my poor 2016 computer has increasing issues processing 4k video editing software. New comp to come soon enough... I hope. Good luck on your next hunt! !

    My great grandfather John Derrick is buried in that cemetery. His family settled Derricks Creek near Sissonville. He lived in South Charleston but his ex wife, my great grandmother and his son, my grandfather, lived in Sylvia, now called Reamer. I’m still yet to find out why he was buried in Young’s Bottom. My great grandmother was a Rucker.

    • @bluecreekdetectors

      There is a large cemetery in Reamer, not sure how old it is. (That is allegedly where the first sighting of ghe monthman by grave diggers was) We were surprised at how large the Sand Run cemetery was. There is a lot there but needs some maintenance I think. It may have just been seen as a prestigious place.

    • @loramullins891

      Yeah my great grandmother is buried in the Reamer cemetery on the hill behind the church. Not sure where exactly as there is no grave marker. My dad was young when she passed but said he remembers climbing the hill when they buried her.
