Hey Larry, Maybe you mean Sissyboo. its a hollar on 219 between Parsons and Thomas. But the only thing I ever knew of up that hollar was a still. But then the owner who I will not name protected it like it was a gold mine.
Never prospected but many years ago while eating our lunch on a big rock on the shore of a large lake in northern Ontario moose and I found what we thought was gold. We spent two more trips back up there , a year in planning, research, and visiting government agencies, and trying to file a claim to learn TWO YOUNG WEST VIRGINIA HILLBILLY BOYS had discovered fools gold. But it was quite a venture with a lot of illusions not to mention several walleye and northern pike.
