    More old canning shed cleaning! The reason that cleaning this shed became so important was to create a space to lock valuables and antiques up. Since thieves decided to pay the ole Byrd Farm a visit. Should I have worn a mask in here? You betcha! Thankfully this was filmed weeks ago, and I’m ok. Don’t worry next time I worked in there.... I wore a mask

    How about using a heavy tined rake to pull that floor debris away? My ocd tendency wants to focus on one thing at a time. Clean out floor before moving on to pulling things down or throw out old wooden junk. Clear one area at a time. Interesting finds. History puzzle pieces.

    • @williamkeith8944

  • @maggiereese1053
    @maggiereese1053 3 ปีที่แล้ว +35

    The horse tack you found around the 2 min mark is a part of a hames to go around the collar and the trace chains hook to it. Obviously, at one time, lots of plowing with horses or mules went on there on the farm.

    • @michaelmccaffrey2731
      @michaelmccaffrey2731 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe it's the tug and yoke. The hames are usually curved and go over the collar . It's been a long time since I've driven a wagon and I only did a couple of times back then.

    I hate that people are stealing stuff, that sucks.
    That she’d is awesome. I was thinking, you reckon those bricks may have been the base for a canning stove. Those old cast iron stoves have to have something like that or they will just go through the floor. We had one once and had to get a special thing for it to sit on. Just a thought.
    That floor could about use a muck shovel. Haha

    • @amberdawn2601
      @amberdawn2601 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      That was my guess as well. There's a patch in the roof above the brick pile, which could've been where the chimney (smoke stack? pipe? not sure what the right word is) went through.

    Back in the early 1960s one of my uncles bought a farm in northeast Nebraska. While cleaning out the chicken coop he discovered several planks in the floor that were loose. He pulled the planks up and discovered a nicely bricked out cellar beneath the chicken coop floor. He inquired around town and was told the owner during the years of prohibition made alcohol, and his still was in that room, hidden from the feds. I would imagine the smell of the chicken manure scattered over the floor would cover up the smell of the still if the authorities came with dogs to sniff out alcohol.

  • @cassieb1860
    @cassieb1860 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Just a thought....The old farmhouse we bought had several barns. In the bottom of a 2story chicken barn we decided to dig out some of the old dirt and debris to put new fresh dirt in. After digging down about a foot we found wires. Those wires were attached to large jars buried about another 2 feet below. The jars were filled with old coins. Those bricks made me think about “X marks the spot”. Do you have access to a metal detector?

      What he's cleaning out, was most likely a 'summer kitchen'. Back before air conditioning was heard of and wood and coal was used for cooking and canning, that shed was most likely used to do all the cooking, canning and heating of water for laundry or baths in the summer time, when you didn't want to heat the house up.
      The brick may have been a base for the stove, or could be remnants of a"sidewall chimney".

    You could still buy wooden play pens/play yards, usually 40 in. Square in the early 1980s...bought my second one in 1983 for my 5th baby...bought the first one in 1965 for my oldest son. Didn’t learn my lesson after selling the first or second one because had to buy one at an antique store in 2008 for a grandson...not that he was the first but he was here the most. I did keep the second one to use with babies six in 1988 and baby seven in 1990...sold it in 1993...and I also kept the one I bought in 2008. I paid more for it then the other two AND many other baby things put together...so finally did learn a lesson...KEEP your good, well made baby things...just saying. By the way, our house is 112 years old...we found lots of neat things too...way before cell phone cameras...we bought this house in deep east Texas in December 1988...Price family built it and live here fo 77 years.

    I absolutely love history, and I've always wanted to visit Georgia, for some reason I'm drawn to that beautiful State and all the older history of those plantations..thanks so much for your videos and a look into the history of your beautiful State!

    I think I would have cleared out all the stuff, then dug out the dirt. I keep hoping you'll find a treasure cache, a hiding place, something under all that stuff.

    I subscribed. It is really cool what you are doing by fixing up that old farm. Most people would tear down those old farms, I live in Minnesota and most of the old farms are gone where I live. The oldest farm I have been to was built in 1863 and the whole farm had tons of stuff everywhere i dug so I will keep watching through the whole repair of the old place. Have a nice day keep up up the good work. I heard about this channel from adventure archeology

    Great video. Nothing worse than seeing stuff walk off. And I know how that feels. Amaze us how batteries, carburetors. Mirrors. You name it walked off! I wish you luck! God bless you all.

    Hello Robert! “Down on the “Old Byrd Farm! Once you clean out the rubble, out of your chicken coop, a load of good gravel will return your building to a satisfactory state!

    That is a total bummer that thieves helped themselves to your items. I hope they were people that are truly desperate 😔 in these uncertain times.
    Cool that you've got a place to lock stuff up though. You should put up a couple trail cams too so maybe you can catch anyone else that decides to come out to your beautiful property. Great episode. Thanks for sharing.

    always interested in the progress of this old place and what is being done. I would put all that coal you find, in a container of some kind and save it all, since that is some of the history of this old place..wondering wouldn''t a heavy rake help in getting all that clean??
