Many thanks!

Always good to see guys keeping the tradition alive.

You never know, thx!

It was really cool to see the bottle from Middletown ny it’s where I grew up didn’t expect to see that

Thx! You could do something similar with Sam, and his home tours.

Bob, this is great! I love seeing these homes honored for their history and beauty.

Hi great video! How can I get Chris contact I have a historic property to revive. Please thank you

Get permission for an old homesite, use a probe in the backyard, when you hit crunchy…dig! Thx!

Very cool! I would love to find sodas like these! I dig bottles, but I can't anymore due to some asbestos in the ground. How might you locate a bottle dump like this?

I want an old house like this thats still repaireble any one have one there willing to finance be great if it had a few akers with it?!

Thx! But the permissions are tricky, and I’m about out of the bottle digging business because of serious joint issues. Appreciate you.

Need a helper? I’m in eustis florida

I am in Ocala I’d like to link up dog a site together

Thx! A nice follow up to Mike’s presentation.

Awesome job, Bob!

I always wondered what that building was

Good to find those old bottles still intact, most of the time they are broken.

I am so glad I found your channel. I'm a local and I never knew about this jail.

Just curious where about on the st. Johns is this? Im down near Titusville.

I had the painting of aj hillboun

I lived in this house it was my grandma

The broken black glass bottles with the deep kick up are circa 1870 to 1880. The dot on the bottom is from a bottle mold. black glass bottles have many shapes thought out the centuries. The first abundant black glass bottles were English mallets circa 1680 to 1730. Colonial distilling and quality control was less than desirable. Sediments and other contaminants were almost impossible to keep out of the bottling process. Bottlers used dark green amber or black glass to hide the Sediments and other contaminants in the bottle. To bypass that problem completely some bottlers were using salt glaze stoneware better known as a " whiskey jug." black glass production was coming to a stand still in the 1890's and was a thing of the past after 1900.

Bob! You are the Man! Thank you for all the interesting videos! Liz Gomez

Bob, I have missed seeing you and Chris. That cistern was amazing to see the size. It was interesting as to only one wall was red brick. The engineering to construct that was very interesting. I was hoping it would be full of old bottles. 👏👍😀

Thanks for sharing!

The arch in the roof is what made it stand up so long, don't need to worry about a roof collapse.

Was that round brass or copper flat metal object, with the folded edges, a slave tag?

I live across the river in Norwalk. Lots of cool places to explore out there also.

18:27 Caster oil

A lot of French stuff and the snail’s could be escargot?

9:49 think that was a laxative water?

I am thinking about moving to Palatka since my Husband passed away. Please list the price of the homes you show. I want an older home as they have much more character than the newer ones, that is my opinion.

On Sisco dirt rd was called Sisco ghost town near route 17. The winery is near rt 309 and Sisco dirt rd

The king axe is a mortise, but was used for turpentine. Blade forum. I found a bunch and sold to a man who knows and restores axes

Putnam county is my hometown metal detecting area. Retired now so I've been picking up the pace on my swinging and digging.

I have a home at the other end of this rd. Would that land be attached?

Interesting and informative video as usual !

hand blown bottles with no seem is a turn mold. after 1870. turn mold used for wins.

Cool snippet of a video! Funny to read the comments of people who live in that area yet who were unaware of that structure. Then again, the history classes I took in high school never mentioned local history apart from early European exploration and a couple of references to the indigenous population. Even field trips took us to places like the local Coca Cola plant and the water treatment facility, etc. However, school, for me, was like putting my head in a vise. Now that that pressure's been relieved, I'm free to pursue the history that captures my imagination. Thanks for the upload. You'll keep us in the loop on further developments with the jail?

Very cool video and history here thank you for sharing!!!! Hello from Ga🍑🍑🍑🤗🤗🤗😁

I always enjoy gluing together shards of a ceramic dish, or shards of anything, for that matter! The pumpkin seed flasks I've seen on other bottle-digging videos have usually been clear. Nice find, and thanks for the upload, as always.

Your videos are very entertaining and informative. Thanks so much.

I've come across a tool called "Action Hoe," of which one of the tools featured in this video reminded me. Looks like the manufacturers could've come up with a less prurient name for it! Thanks for the upload!

Seems to me that that would've been considered a lot of house for back in the day, particularly for a farm! All I could think about while watching was getting my hands on some of the wood that's still intact! Thanks for uploading this adventure!

I would love to learn more about fossil hunting in the st. john's area. any chance I can link up to get information?

You've done a great job with this topic. It's a wonder how much history is forever lost. This story is headed in that direction, but you've added some life to it. Thanks for sharing

Bob wonderful back story of the railroad ticket office without the railroad. So awesome you worked with the historical society. Your boat trip was a true adventure along with the drone to find the canal. Great historical information.👏👍😀

Bob, I have connections with the Florida Agricultural Museum. They may be interested in this building.

There's just something magical to me about old Florida, even though I grew up in another southern State. I really hope someone will step forward and act on the owner's offer regarding repurposing the house materials. Thanks for the upload!
