Lost Treasure Stories

Lost Treasure Stories

This channel features true authentic tales of buried and lost treasure in a documentary style. Our stories are from our files of over 45 years of research in old historical newspapers, family biographies, and other historical archives of people who buried or hid hoards of gold and silver coins, as well as paper money and raw bullion. A big percentage of our lost treasure stories have not been published in over 50 to 150 years, which means you’ve probably never before seen them on Youtube, the internet, or anywhere else.

Our treasure tales are produced by reading you the newspaper articles or other documents word for word, so you get them exactly as they appeared all those years ago. Since we’re using old newspaper files, many times those articles use derogatory terms when referring to slaves, blacks, and native Americans, so we do edit that type of wording.

We produce videos on a regular basis so be sure to subscribe to our channel, and hit your notification button, so you don’t miss any episodes.

    Anything about Mississippi County? Shawnee Village manly it was John Murrell hideout in the 1820. Later the McGavocks moved here with Felix Grundy. Dr McGavock had a horse track and his plantation wss close to Shawnee Village landing. Col McGavock had pecan point that’s a few miles away. He wrote about Southern troops camped a few miles behind his house and union riverboats docked in front of his house.
