Sorry folks. I have not been on here for a few years. I will check in every now and then to see how everyone is doing. Look around. Have questions. Post what you know or what you want to know. Maybe someone out there has the answers.

W.W. Watts was a fourteen year old that worked at the Printing Press where the Job Print Pamphlet was published in 1885. James Beverly Ward used the letter head paper from the Adams & Payne Feed Store where W.W. Watts was and apprentice. The first ads in the Lynchburg Press Newspaper said to contact W.W. Watts. Later the ads and newspaper articles said to contact James Beverly Ward, agent for the author. So it looks like W.W. Watts a fourteen year old apprentice at the newspaper and printing office was the author of the Beale Papers. Sorry just a story of fiction.

Show me the gold in other words prove it. I know you can not. The Beale Treasure is a fictional story made up by W.W. Watts a 14 year old apprentice at the Adams Brothers Printing Company and store. Good look hunting for his marbles.

The Beale Treasure Ciphers from the Job Print Pamphlet can not be solved and I repeat can not be solved. All kinds of theories of decipherment have come up over the years but ALL can be ignored because the Beale Treasure Ciphers is a story made up by an unknown author, most likely W.W. Watts a teenager working at the printing office. I can confidently state this after over 50 years of work and research on the Beale Papers. Keep beating the bushes you may find another treasure but you won't find 4 tons of gold and silver from out west during the years 1819 to 1822.

Here is a copy if I can get it downloaded properly. While working with Joseph Duran and my brother we deciphered those papers. It is actually a map to the treasure.

I already found that Capt. Thomas J. Beall and wrote my book, "Diary of Thomas J. Beall" Rebel KGC and others have already read the book. But, I am sorry to say he was not the right Thomas J. Beall. The real TJ Beall was the son of Attorney and Surveyor of Botetourt County Thomas J. Beall, Sr.

Kydave, I don't post as often as I should. I am in the process of moving-------so I may not be on here for months. As far as the "KEY" it was left in St. Louis, MO at the Planter's Hotel. The manager George Radar Brugh was to deliver the letter to Robert Morris in 1832. He was murdered in Roanoke, Va at the Blackhorse Tavern by the owner and proprietor Ebenezer Nelms. The letter was later found in 1932 and a copy was made. A map was left by TJB telling where the depositories were located. The original and the copy ended up in the hands of someone in Washington, D.C. I have a copy of the map.

I have found at least 30 or 40 locations of gold being discovered in Va. during this time period. Don't really see any reason to go out west? But supposedly it was only by accident? You are so right Kydave, there are several rich placer gold and gold mines in Virginia and North Carolina. These mines were never worked to the potential. The White Hall mine near Charlottesville, Virginia while about 60 feet down a one yard of stone was removed and over $250,000 in gold was found in that one cubic yard. There has got to be plenty more. I have the locations of all gold mines in Virginia and I plotted them on a topo-map this gave me a view of where the gold deposits ran and where the copper and iron ore began. I thought the Overstreets were the family that did the helicopter tours of Montvale?

Check along the rivers that come into the inlets. I have heard rumors of gold coins being found about the size of $50 gold piece but they are supposed to be pieces of eight.

Kydave, I went Beale Treasure hunting one day about eight or ten years ago. I stopped at a gas station in Montvale. I went in got a cake and diet pepsi. After coming back out I decided to do some dowsing for the Beale Treasure. I went off to the east side of the gas station so as not to draw any attention. After coming back around to the front to put up my dowsing tool, five men were standing there talking. I sort of got into the conversation when they asked me what I was doing. I told them I was searching for the Beale Treasure. They laughed as they continued their conversation. I listened for about ten minutes as they were discussing about buying a small farm. One of the men said he could have gotten the farm for "three" another said no I believe it would have taken at least "five." I asked another fellow standing there if they were talking about buying a farm for three or five thousand and he replied no they are talking about millions. He told me those five men are all multi-millionaires. I told him they sure did not look it in their dirty boots and farming bib-overalls. Finally I got back into their conversation and asked the five men if they had heard or knew anything about the Beale Treasure. They said sure and one asked the other you remember the story about the treasure and the other replied sure but the treasure was buried right after Cornwallis surrendered at Yorktown in 1780 or 1781. Two Duolley brothers stole a trunk of gold from General Cornwallis-----they brought the gold back to Bedford County and buried the gold. One of the Dullley brothers went back and dug the money up and buried it somewhere else. The other brother thinking his brother had stolen the gold, killed him before asking where he had buried the gold------and that my friend is where the story of the Beale Treasure came from and that is the Duolley Brother's gold stolen from General Cornwallis at the Battle of Yorktown. This story may be true. It was told by five men that had nothing to gain from such a tale and they should be in the know by living the area. But who really knows the hunt for the Beale Treasure continues. Albert

Thanks, Kydave. My brother will be missed. I loved him so.
Treasure hunting I can take it or leave it. Treasures for me are easily found but I can never get permission from any landowners. I have made a point many times---------Treasure can be found without a metal detector. All you have to do is go to any treasures suspected location find the meanest landowner around and the treasure is on his property. If someone lets you in on their property ----- forget it if the treasure was there someone would have already found it. Try treasure hunting this way---------you will be successful finding the treasures but the recovery will take you a life time. Sorry to hear about your shoulder Kydave-----myself I always have trouble out of my knees or my back. Good luck to you and all posters out there.
