  1. Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    There is said to be a hidden treasure in the town-land of Edenburt, Virginia, Co Cavan and that there is a cave in which the treasure is. No one has ever found the cave.
    Perhaps in time to come people will get more enlightened and go out and search for it.
    It is said that the Danes hid this treasure in a cave. I believe this cave is near Gallon House, Edenburt Virginia Co. Cavan, but I have not yet found it.
