    My grandfather had an almost identical well at the edge of his back porch (near Ranburne, Alabama). He had modernized it with an electric pump, so he had running water in the house.

    Well water is great. Clean and ice cold. Wish I had one. But, I have drank it many times from other people's wells.

    My house was built in 1833 just outside of Atlanta and I still have the hand dug well. I want to try this and see what could be down there!

    I bought the magnets, but I keep forgetting to put one together to do it. I even went to a couple of lakes this months, which is a rarity. I think the enamelware pot is just the usual cooking pot used a lot in the old days, but they could have been using it to bring up water. It looked like holes were drilled into the side for ropes. I use a pot like that now for beans and chicken and dumplings.

    The house I used to live in was build somewhere in the 1940s-50s and they still had that well with a hand spinner on it. Later on, around 80s, an automatic pump was installed. I still remember my fear that our cat might fall down there. Or me 😂😂🤣🤣

    That's a porcelain stock pot. The hammer head is a ball peen and the design of them hasn't changed in a 100 years. If it was dug in 1860 probably used a wooden bucket.

    As a kid I found a small circle of iron in the ground. I started digging around it. It turned into a long piece of steel going straight down into the ground. I finally got it out was 2 ft long or so with a smaller piece on the end. showed it to my dad who said it was a gun barrel! A few days later an elderly neighbor stopped by and we showed it to him. He got a odd look on hes face and said decades before that some one got murdered there and no one was caught and no gun found. He thought the gun must have been put down a toilet hole the way I found it standing straight up.
