Now here's my take on the house's history.

It's the 1930s, a family wants to move into a nice new farm house in the middle of the grand town of -----,Alabama. At the time, not many house surrounded the area, but today it is located in the woods next to dozens of main street buildings. The husband bought his wife a very nice flower brooch for her birthday. Now onto the 1940s, the family is getting along very fine. They can afford to throw out many bottles, dumping them behind the barn. The husband drops his wallet, spilling 4 Wheat Cents, 1916,1936,1940,and 1948, also his 1943 Mercury dime. He searches vigorously for his 14 cents, but to no avail, they had fallen under the floorboards. The 50s roll along. The family moves on after about 20 years. They leave in a hurry, leaving behind silverware, bottles, and other goodies. No other recorded activity from the 50s or 60s are recorded except for some bottles that were probably thrown in the woods. In the mid 60s-early 70s, the house catches fire. After the fire is put out, they bulldoze the vacant house. The 1940 Wheat cent is damaged in the fire. To this day, the house lays in shambles, and a hill and trench threatens to overtake it.

I got bored, and this part of the forum needed some posts.

I don't know. I'm trying to piece together the story of the house through only my finds, the reason I say they left is because of the lack of finds past the 1950s
