Volunteers and Grand Tours

Today was a great day! Another archaeology/local history afficionado came out and helped me lay out stakes, run string and record grid squares. We got about three times as much done as I dared to hope and I am so grateful. Most of the SW quarter of the cemetery is done now and tomorrow I hope to finish that bit off and move on to the south east section No great finds today at RC but the landowner came over and it was fantastic to pick his brain for a while and to get a tour of what was where on the farm way back when. I'm looking forward to following up some of the leads. I'll get a location on the large square he identified in the field next door-- so obvious once it's pointed out-- the landowner says was where the school was situated. No luck on the church yet.
