Have you seen these numbers before? See attchment. They can be found at page 222, Gold in The Blue Ridge: The True Story of the Beale Treasure;, 2nd ed.,1981,  by P. B. Innis and Walter Dean Innis. They say the paper is definitely old and was given to them by a family in Roanoke who say that it was handed down in their family and had always been considered to be one of the Beale Treasure papers. The numbers have been overlooked for years and everyone considers them to be doodles and unemportant. You may be surprised to learn that they will become a map of the Goose Creek valley at Montvale, Virginia. But First, I will show you the numbers to study; then in a few days, I will show several of the maps found in BC3. Which number is the beginning point?. I hope the attachment will come through. Check 'em out. Larry

Larry a little advice. Most here believe that the Beale papers are a hoax and not worth researching so to get folks interested in your thread you need to post as much info as possible so a conversation can get started. Posting a little at a time make folks lose interest and ignore this thread so try not to drag the story out any more then you have to.

There are many of you who believe that the Beale Treasure story is a hoax and I respect that. As for myself and some others, we believe there is some truth to the story. I feel that the story is true because my translation came first, then later I placed the information on the "numbers" after experimenting with the scale to use. I increased the size. You can see where the ink used ran or deteriorated.

My beginning point was the "4" at the bottom of the numbers because you would normally begin at "X"; and it looked more like an "X" than the "4" that was placed higher. I drew what I call "the base line" or East/West line through the "4". Attached are Map 4, how I translated map 4 and the translation summary.

I have believed all along that Thomas Jefferson Beale was "Tom" the first born of the Thomas Jefferson/Sally Hemimgs relationship. If you accept that premise, most all of the questions about word usage like "stampede" and "clewe"; and phrases like "game is worth the candle";and which Declaration of Independence was used to solve BC2 can be answered.

I am preparing to upload "map 7" which goes to or near the cave discovery discussed at bealesolved.tripod.com. This process may take me another day.

Attached are the following:

1, Map 7 BC3
2. Translation procedure for Map7
3, Translation of Map 7 BC3

I used "the Miller's Tale" in Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales and took the predominate sound from the last word in the line. I welcome any questions or comments, Larry
