Another great field trip to Rebecca Nurse Homestead!!!
Dig this 08 went on the third trip to Rebecca Nurse homestead. We first watched the movie so we had alot of background. We had the chance to look around the homestead.We past by the cemetery which the closest were buried. The tombs are more than 100 years old. I learned that the site was once 300 hundred acres big and now its only 100 due to the constructions. We weren’t supposed to dig but i guess things got mixed up so we ended up digging. This time we changed it up a little, We were in different sections. The section I was in found many artifacts like bottles, pipes, and a broken tea cup! We are going back on saturday, I hope to learn or about the Homestead which Rebecca Nurse once layed feet on.
