Yo! ;D (STILL sunny out at 7:45 p.m. (est) in Virginia...); beale, I think it is a GREAT idea for Rockster to review the TOME; ALSO, members of this form/web-site COULD help him with the $1.00 per "credit" for "posting" pics of interesting "findings" to "back up" with we say, we "find"... could YOU co-ordinate the donations to be sent to him? I think it would make this web-site MUCH more interesting... we could "post" pics of the Beech Trees, Turkey Tracks on the boulders, Turtle Head Rock, BIG boulders with "possible" site for hiding "treasure", drill holes, quartz rocks Wells, old "bean pots", etc. etc.

Thanks for that Rebel... I've posted details of how to donate credits to the forum in the news section, but I'll just reproduce the post here for convenience sake. I just discovered how you (the members) can donate credits to the forum if you'd like. On the main page, scroll down to the bottom of the screen, and below the Google search bar you'll see the words "Click Here To Make This Board Ad-Free". Click there and you'll be taken to the Proboards Forum Credit Service page where any credits purchased will be assigned to this forum. $2 per month for 2 credits buys the forum 20Mb of space for pics/attachments per month. My thanks in advance to any member who donates any amount, however large or small. Rockster Hope that helps!

Yo! ;D (Gotta mow...); beale, Rockster KNOWS how to "post" pics from digcams, we can help him with the $$$$ part by sending money orders, which needs to be converted from American $$$$ to Brit. lbs, etc. In YOUR case, you just needs to "scan" the pic U have with a "scanner" or something; this newfangled puter tech is TOO much for me to keep up with... my older brother is MORE hep on this stiff than I (he is a UVA grad... I got mine from JMU...).

Yes, rebel, I would be glad to co-ordinate donations to the Rockster. He has sent me his mailing address so I should have no problem sending it to him. I will send him my CD, "Lost Diaries of Thomas J. Beall" this weekend. Send me a personal message of anyone wanting to send a donation and I will give you my mailing address which can be found on this forum and I will forward the donation to Rockhound. I plan on making a few donations myself. If I can recover the CSA Treasury I will send him a large donation because I sure appreciate having a forum to talk and to ask questions about the Beale Treasure and other treasures. It sure would be great to post pics. I have one of Captain TJB in his brother's General uniform. His brother was a congressman in the State of Ohio. That is in my TOME. If anyone should purchase the CD, "Lost Diaries of Thomas J. Beall" remember that your name will be added to the others in the drawing for the $1 Million Dollars. I will also make small contributions to this website along the way. Thanks!
Rebel,
Is there any convenient stores or antique stores in Lynchburg where you can get them to sell the CD's for me. I may have to sell them for less, so the stores can make a profit------also I would be saving on postage. I will discuss this with you and with them------if you can? Let me know.

Yo! ;D beale, will look into it; I think Jones Memorial Library should have a copy as well as historical societies of Lynchburg AND Bedford, and the museums of Lynchburg AND Bedford; if they have web-sites, will e-mail 'em to you.

Hi Albert, I'd be more than happy to "review" your book but with the proviso that you realise I'll be reading it as a relative ignoramus compared with those discussing the topic here. That may be a good thing, however, as I won't be bogged down with too many preconceived opinions and will be able to read it as any other relative newcomer to the subject. I hope my comments will prove useful to you. Again I thank you for your offer and I've already sent you my address in a personal message. Your friend, Gordon Rockhound, I got the CD, "Lost Diaries of TJ Beall," in the mail today. The post office workers said you should receive in 5 to 10 days. I was going to put a donation in with it but ran short of time. I will get something off to you soon. Thanks.

Hi Albert, Thanks for the CD I can't wait to read it. But as to the donation you mention, please don't send anything to me. That just isn't necessary.
All you have to do if you want to add credits to the forum is read my post in the News section and follow the instructions there.
In short, all monies donated to the site is transacted online through the appropriate options as outlined in my News item.
Again, thank you for the offer but please, please don't send any money to me personally.
Your friend,
Gordon (Rockhound)

I was going to put a donation in with it but ran short of time. I will get something off to you soon. Thanks. I got more CD's out in the mail today. One order I resent two to Colorado. The buyer had trouble opening the CD's. Is there any others out there please let me know? I took them to the local library and also on my computer and they worked just fine. It must be that they have one of the older types of computer. I also sent a CD of the "Lost Diary of Thomas J. Beall" out to Peter Viemeister. He should let me know in a few weeks what he thinks about the book. I believe I will change the name from "Diaries" to "Diary" sounds more legit. Others that have ordered I will get the CD's out by Monday or Tuesday. I have them all made, it just takes time at the post office. I hope everyone enjoys the book. It sure was fun writing it. I put another book on CD last Sunday. It is the research behind one of the "Ten Tales of Treasure" called "Golden Guineas of Fort Mayo" It gives in detail the location of Fort Mayo. Over two and one half tons of golden guineas are hidden in the area, worth a fortune today. I have looked and looked the area over but there may be a location I am missing. The landowner told me there was a large crawl space under the house------maybe that is where it is hidden. The crawl space could lead to a hidden cellar? Don't know but I do know I will keep looking. Over $300 Million Dollars in gold and silver is missing at this location according to Wills and Deeds at the courthouse.

Hi Albert, I received my copy of your CD on Saturday morning but I'd completely forgotten that I'm going to have a little trouble finding the time on someone elses computer to read it!!
As I have no working computer at home right now, the only options I have are to either find some way to get it printed out in it's entirety or to rely on the goodwill of friends to allow me a few minutes on their computers each day or two. I don't like to impose to much on friends so I'm afraid it may take me some time to get through the whole book.
That said, I've had a brief look at the book and I have to say already it's impressed me a great deal. I wish my computer was up and running, I'm sure I'd be spending a lot of time in front of it !
In summary "Nice work Albert", I'll try to offer my impressions as I progress through the book in the coming weeks.
Your friend, Gordon (Rockhound)

Thanks rockhound. Take your time, we are in no hurry. It is best to read it slow and to study on each line because there is a wealth of inside information in the book. Especially you should spend a few hours on the genealogy-----it ties all of the players in the Beale Treasure story together. They are all related. If you read the book carefully I even give the location where Beale's Party recovered the gold and silver from in the New Mexico Territory and it is verified by the Official Spanish Records during Lt. Pike's visit there in 1805 and 1806. It is also verified in Pike' Journal published in 1810. Good reading and enjoy. Also I give two locations where the Beale Treasure is still buried--------One of them is the correct one. Can't say which until both are checked out. Talk to you later.

Albert,
I received your CD, "THE LOST DIARIES OF TJB" in the mail about 1 hour ago and put it in the computor... to get a quick glance and over view of its contents.
I had absolutely "ZERO" problem opening it to view its contents. Any one with Microsoft Windows should not have a problem with opening and reading it at any time, it is fully compatible With MS Word.
I have only scanned through it and so far it looks well presented Over the next few days I will read it in depth and initiate a thread to comment on its contents after I email you.

Thanks David,
I have a lot more information I wanted to put in the story but didn't want to make it too long. There is more pictures I would like to have in it like the Chateaus, Dr. Robinson and his brother. I can't remember whether I put a picture of TJB in your CD or not. He was wearing Resin's uniform when he was a General on the Western frontier. He was also an attorney and a Congressman from the State of Ohio.
What ever your comments I would appreciate them. I know I am not the best writer, hardly a writer at all but I enjoy trying to put my research out there for others to follow up on. Research is the key to finding treasures sometimes the breaking of a cypher code can lead to a treasure but I love my research. I hope you enjoy it.

Rebel, Have you read all of the 192 pages in the book, "Lost Diaries of Thomas J. Beall?" What did you think about the genealogy? That is really TJB's brothers and sisters and their parents. Also relatives and friends. Several are being purchased now as I have them on CD's. I sent one to Germany and treasure hunter in Georgia purchased one and another in Utah. The one in Georgia and Utah also purchased my other three CD's 1. Confederate States of America Volume 1---Lost Treasury Gold, over three hundred pages and at least one hundred photos and maps. In this book is also a map of the two locations of the CSA Treasury in Danville, Virginia. "X" marks the spots 2. Confederate Treasure in Danville, The Addendum, about 92 pages along with a lot of good information for researchers. It has the names and outfit of the 700 CSA soldiers that died in the Danville, Virginia hospitals. Also all of the citizens that lived on Craghead and Lynn Streets. Names, occupations where they slept and their ages. Also given is good information on the treasure of the CSA. 3. Ten Tales of Treasure, ten stories that I have sent to rebel and peter v. These are stories that I have listed above nine total plus one of two that I had published. Parker's Ferry Gold and Jubal Early's Gold titled Burnt Chimney. 4. Of course the last one is the story I wrote during the winter, "Lost Diaries of Thomas J. Beall." I believe that if anyone read this book seriously they would find out how much information is stored or hidden. I give a couple locations of the Beale Treasure and one of them is the exact location. I have these posted in the "Civil War" thread on Treasurenet Forum. Should anyone be interested in any of these send me a personal message or go to the Treasurenet Forum. The CD's are $20 each or you can have them sent to you as attachments for $15. On the Treasurenet Forum I also told everyone that purchased one will get $1,000. back when the CSA Treasury is recovered by me and assets start flowing in. Also all purchasers names will be placed into a drawing for $1 Million Dollars.When I start reading the "Lost Diaries of Thomas J. Beall" I can not lay it down until I finish. I love reading it and I am sure others will too. I can't remember whether I posted Book Number 5 that I wrote last Fall called, "In Search of Fort Mayo?" These five are available on CD at $20. each postage included. Each one sold the buyer's name will be added into a drawing for $1 Million Dollars when I recover the CSA Treasury. So if you buy all five you will have five chances at winning the $1 Million Dollars. Also, I have made post on other forums today, if anyone invest $1,000. they will receive 50 chances at the $1 Million Dollar drawing and one-tenth of one percent of the value of the treasure which is valued at $2 Billion Dollars. This comes to another $1 to $2 Million Dollars. Any investor that invest $10,000 will have 500 chances to win the drawing of $1 Million Dollars and will receive a contract for one percent of the value of the treasure. This will amount to $20 Million Dollars or more. So order your books on CD today. Investors email me, send personal messages or phone me today. Let's make this recovery happen soon. Then we can recover the Beale Treasure.
