Newbie from Nebraska

[TiffanyMcLean]

My son thought my brothers Pioneer 101 Bounty Hunter was cool one day, so he brought it home from grandmas!
We recently moved back to Nebraska after several years away. I know you're thinking "what does this have to do with anything", but it factors in I promise.

In 2012 I purchased our home in a small town located close to the Bazille Creek. The building (our home) was built in 1890 and was originally used as
a bottling plant. There have been renovations done to the place, but behind my upgraded furnace there is a wall plaque that is screwed to the wall.
This wall plaque is operating instructions for an oil burning furnace. This looks very old!

I have found very little about this building, other than when it was erected and who built it.

I am a curious person that is head over heals with vintage, antique, old, ugly, so treasure hunting fits right in.

Any suggestions on where I would begin to look around this building?

Cool...do a cursory scout about of the premesis, then sleep on it, let your mind figure on it for a while...then fire up that BH and commence a search of the backyard where a clothesline woulda hung...expect a lot of trash, dont get discouraged, keep at it and keep practicing with the detector...a home that old has to hold some silver or gold...maybe a jar full out back by that lilac bush? Theres some pretty powerful hunters that post here from Nebraska, and that sure looks like some good dirt...check and cruise around some of the other the Forums on this site and ask questions..Good Luck! Hurry up though, its fixin to begin the big chill soon...
