The shores of Dead Horse Bay in Brooklyn are scattered with forgotten treasures from the past. In May 2022 I went searching there with New York detectorist and History Hunter @IndianaTones and we found a variety of miscellaneous objects once owned by New Yorkers decades ago. One thing that struck me in particular during this outing, was the abundance of old toys that end up on the banks of Dead Horse Bay - very similar to the Thames. There's always something poignant about finding old toys - particularly when the children who played with them are almost certainly no longer with us. We also found a few objects which took some identifying! It's always fun to have some mystery finds.
Thank you to Louis DeFoe for taking me out on this beautiful misty day to Dead Horse Bay. Louis also searches for lost jewellery for people and then returns it to them.
Thank you for watching. Please like and subscribe if you enjoyed this video and do go on over to see Louis's channel. He has some great content.
Thank you.
