<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MDO, post: 25143990, member: 88280&quot;]About ten years ago, I discovered that my distant relative, Rev. Robert O&#039;Barr owned the land where Benjamin Parks discovered gold in 1828. Rev Robert O&#039;Barr foolishly sold Parks the mineral rights for $10K (about $350K today) and a percentage of gold found but later sold the property to a local judge who sold it to John C. Calhoun and it became the Calhoun mine.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
