Search for buried treasure on Texas coast likely a waste
Galveston Texas Sept 7 searchers after a buried sliver on the mainland opposite Pete Island 18 miles southeast of Corpus Christi may be disappointed says Dr J O Dyer a local writer on historical and scientific subjects. He notes 25 skeletons found recently are unlikely crew remains of a Spanish treasure ship with no wreck records. He argues skeletons rarely exceed 40 years and bullion routes faded after 1820 due to Lafitte buccaneers and storms.
