Re: Another Discovery for Silent Hunter Crew

Kurt - that indeed looks like fun. I got a lesson from Frank at the Rendezvous on panning and am planning on giving it a go up in one of the few gold bearing streams/rivers we have in NH. Not much to be found up there, but guys do it just for the fun of it and it would be good practice for me. I'm d...

Re: 9TH. ANNUAL DUTCH HUNTER'S RENDEZVOUS

I was asked to post this here as a reminder about the upcoming Rendezvous... "Only nine (9) days until the Don's Camp gate will be opened for the 9th. Annual Dutch Hunter's Rendezvous. I don't know what time the gate will be unlocked, but if you get in touch with Wayne, he can give you a better...

Re: Jesuit Treasure in the Superstitions

The Bob Brady incident did not happen in the 1970s; it was in the late 60s...between 6/67 and 8/69. When the guys went on that "expedition" with Brady, he and his wife and kid had been staying in our house for about a month. When he disappeared during the expedition, he left them behind! ...

Re: 9TH. ANNUAL DUTCH HUNTER'S RENDEZVOUS

Ashton - phone calls to the Tonto National Forest and other "national" agencies have yielded the expected "due to the lack of federal funds, this office is closed" recorded messages, but I contacted the Lost Dutchman State Park and the folks there told me that all the trailheads ...

Re: Emil and Julia Thomas Bakery

Beth - yes, I can see the articles you posted. You mentioned in one of your recent posts that the Thomas ice cream store kept it's name up through 1921 with a number of newspaper advertisements. Would you be able to link a few of those? Not all of them as you mentioned, but just a few? Hope you and ...

Re: Emil and Julia Thomas Bakery

" Yes, there's always the possibility that Julia could have been "running" both businesses for some reason - that's always a possibility, not probably, but possible. However, as I said, Ely stated she had that lease, and I don't believe she did." I dont know much about the matte...

Re: 9TH. ANNUAL DUTCH HUNTER'S RENDEZVOUS

All, Does anybody know if public access to the Superstition Wilderness is closed and ‘off limits’ due to the government shut-down? Thanks, Ashton I don't know the answer to your question, but I suspect since it's a wilderness area wish basically no services to speak of and no vehicle access (except...

Re: Emil and Julia Thomas Bakery

The problem as I see it is that Ely does not say that Julia worked in a store facing N on Washington, or that she helped run the business there. He states, "Helena Thomas TOOK A LEASE on a frame building...." Unless Julia took out a lease on BOTH building's - one on either side of Washingt...
