Title: CASHED CHECKS
Post by: Templar on August 22, 2010, 01:03:30 PM

I PICKED UP SOME CANCELLED CHECKS AND BANK DRAFTS FROM THIS AREA........THEY  ARE DATED AROUND THE TIME IF THE CIVIL WAR....THEY ARE FROM THE MINING AREA OF THE UPPER PENNINSULA  OF MICHIGAN........IF YOU WILL NOTICE THE SPELLING OF"KEWENAW".....IT IS SPELLED DIFFERENTLY ON CHECKS FROM THE SAME BANK........ITS THE NAME OF THE PENNINSULA WHERE THE COPPER AND IRON MINES FLOURISHED ........

 HOPE YOU ENJOY THEM.............THE TEMPLAR(http://)

THIS IS THE LAST SET..........MANY ARE SIGNED BY SAM HILL.........THE GUY WHO SOLD THEM TO ME CLAIMED THAT THE PHRASES USING "SAM HILL" CAME FROM THIS MAN'S NAME...........FOR EXAMPLE: WHERE THE SAM HILL HAVE YOU BEEN?........AFTER A LITTLE RESEARCH THIS STORY TURNED OUT TO BE A LOT OF FERTILIZER........BUT A GOOD STORY IS A GOOD STORY

                   HOPE THE SAM HILL YOU LIKED SEEING THESE?(http://)
