Summary of The Beale Papers

[Jenny]

A quick summary of the Beale Treasure can be found here:

The fact there hasn't been any conclusive evidence for this being a hoax, and that the 1885 pamphlet is a genuine document, keeps searchers looking for either the lost treasure (or proof of it's existence), or finding a reason for the publishing of the story.

It would seem the remaining two codes of the pamphlet, once deciphered (if possible), will provide answers.

This mystery is located only a few miles from me, a friend and I have discussed it but not devoted a lot of time to it. I plan on changing that as my son grows older and I get closer to retirement. That area of Bedford has changed considerably, highway 460 has moved considerably since it was a wagon road heading west then again with the coming of the railroad and civil war. Bufords tavern is still in the same place so it remains the anchor for the search, I look at the mountain ranges bordering the Montvale area and cant help wonder which one conceals the treasure. One day.

Interested to hear your HO on this one wigreeves, independent thinking never hurts.

No worries, not looking for an X marks the spot. Good luck to you ! Hope to see this one solved one day or debunked, whichever.
