Regarding Pelham I have written before: "Likely due to the storied history of our town, there are a surprising number of legends and stories about buried treasure, forgotten treasure, and found treasure in our region." Today's posting to the Historic Pelham Blog relates yet another true account of the discovery of buried treasure in our Town.
