I'm new to this whole Beale Treasure thing which is sad since I live approx. 10 mins from Bedford. But since I have found out about this treasure I have to know more. These sort of things have always interested me and when its this close to my home how can I not be interested.

Hey Girl, First thing would be to get a copy of the story and code numbers with the Declaration of Independence. Read as many of the past posts on this forum that you can. Then your own your own to think up as many ideas as you can imagine, keeping in mind that most of them have already been tried and failed to unlock the codes. You can probably find most of the info online or at the Lynchburg library i hear. Feel free to ask or discuss any ideas on this forum and i'm sure someone will reply. Happy Hunting!

Yo! Rebel here: ;D wife & I just got back from Virginia Beach; looking for pirate treasure "washed-ups" from tropical storm down there... HA! NO luck, and it was "MUGGY"! Average Girl, U can visit Peter Viewmeister at his store on Main Street in Bedford, do reading in research room at Bedford Library, do research in Virginia Room at Roanoke Library, and do research at Jones Memorial Library in Lynchburg, Va. The story starts in Lynchburg (Job Print Pamphlet); focus is on mountains near Montvale, Va.; MAIN story is dated @ 1819 & 1822... Good Luck! ALSO... buy the "books" written by Beale (see MANY previous posts/threads...

I'm going to Moneta Library to do more "air-conditioned" research... the "dog days of July" are here, it use to be August. The "flat-landers tourists will be on the Lake, so! I do not have to worry about crowds at the library... HA! The land sale is a bummer... BUT! U never know what will happen before Jan., 2007...

Yo! Rebel here: ;D Very good day at Moneta Library... Goose Creek "Community", pg. 6 -7 of BEDFORD VILLAGES: LOST and FOUND by DAR; not really a community, a few houses... post office... at Goose Creek (north) and Goose Creek (South, AKA "Jones Fork"). P. Buford's family settled there in 1770's near Union; a colonial fort was nearby... P. B.'s daughter, Anne, married a William Hall of Lynchburg... NOW! here is the interesting part... in 1823, P.L. Buford (yep, good old Paschal) petitioned the local court (SHOULD be in court records, unless they were destroyed during Civil War... how convenient...) for permission to erect a mill on Goose Creek (near where current concrete bridge crosses goose creek...). ROCKY FORD... Buford's Mill was the ONLY mill on Goose Creek to appear on the Confederate map in the Civil War, between Monvale & well west of Flat Top Mountain (near Thaxton, Va. NOT Peaks of Otter...). P. B. deeded the "tract" of the mill to daughter Anne, and hubby W. Hall, and the mill became known as Hall's Mill on Goose Creek (Sept. 3. 1873). ROCKY FORD!!!

Beale, Wonder what kind of research Mel did to make him decide that the Mill was the place to dig? Sure a likely spot, but was there more to it than that? Just finished watching "National Treasure" for the third time, very interesting movie. Bet they got some of their idea's from us didn't they?

Yo! Rebel here: ;D Howdy, KyDave... IF Paschal erected/built a mill in 1823 +... it MAY mean he knew where the treasure was on Goose Creek... took a bit of $$$$ to buy MORE land on Goose Creek... AND... buried the rest of the treasure UNDER the FOUNDATION of the mill, then... dunno.

Yo! Rebel here: ;D HA HA! HA! HOW could we have missed it? Yer waterfall MAY be the water turning the water mill at the mill on Goose Creek... the high and low is similar to what I have "seen"... the "low" is an "entrance" at water level on Goose Creek... the "high" is another "entrance" (cave) from that inside Porter Mountain... ALL within "4 miles"... Geeze, this is FUN! ;D ROCKY FORD!!!

Beale, That is so interesting, figured you knew the answer to my question. A "black" lady with a "Beale" family Bible? That seems to go back to what the "Indian" told me about Beale being the illigitimate son of a certian "President"! Wonder what ever happened to that Bible and key? Next time i go down to Sebastian i'm gonna try and find out! Waiting on the next hurricane now, ha! I'm gonna drive a $50,000 truck right in the middle of it! That's treasure hunting i guess! Anyway sounds like you guys are getting a little closer all the time. Good Luck

OOPS! Maybe i'm getting my Bibles mixed up! Guess i was thinking of the one that was supposed to have the "key" hidden in the cover maybe. Is that the same one?
