When finished, he walked home, sat down, and DIED. He had no time to tell anyone where he had buried the gold. YOU GUYS. My family had literal buried treasure somewhere in Braintree, Massachusetts. Per the written account from 1911, it hadn't been found. 2/2

Yesterday, I discovered that my 8th great-grandfather, Capt. John Thomas, upon being summoned to return to England in 1714 (story for another post), buried the majority of his gold (just lying around his house) for better security in his absence. 1/2

Glad to hear it! Great shot, too.

👏👏👏🎉

I'm so sorry, Heather. Sending you a big hug.

OMG. I need this, too.

Thank you!
