    This was leaning against the wall in our cellar dirt floor, house was built 1801, My wife's family moved in after Civil war 1870s, Charles Pickett married a famous women who had a baby. He and his brother traveled in 1840 to the California gold rush, came back to Salem Ma for the war. This pickaxe is from these years, very heavy 12 lbs, and i wonder if i can find out which years actually this came from? would he bring back across the USA from Cal to Mass.
