QUERY: KERENS, TEXAS GOLD HOARD
Web site visitor Chisum Whorton of Texas writes: "I came across your article regarding the gold found at the A.L. Bain ranch on www.coinbooks.org. A.L. Bain was my great grandfather. I have heard many stories regarding this through my grand mother over the years. I had thought they had said much of the gold was taken when it was found, but several pieces were kept. It has been many years but I remember seeing some of these as a child. Any information you could send would be of great interest.I put Chisum in touch with Dave Ginsburg who wrote the
E-Sylum article. He's been researching the 1947 discovery of $1,775 in
gold coins on the farm in Kerens, TX (which is about 70 miles southeast of
Dallas). -Editor
