Hi,
Where can I find more info on the Frenchman's gold in Pennsylvania?
It's got my name on it!
Thanks

There's a page at the Potter County website about this lost treasure:

Good luck!
And remember that if you find the gold you should give me a small percentage!

As you've already discovered, h2g2 is an odd place filled with obscure references and 'unconventional wisdom' in keeping with site founder Douglas Adams' vision.
If you would like to stick around and contribute your own bits of random knowledge, do edit your personal space to tell us a little about yourself! 
Once you've done that, the ACEs (Assistant Community Editors) will be able to swing by and help you make some sense of this large and rambling online community.
Being an ACE myself, I can tell you that there are *loads* of things to do on this site - from writing your own Guide Entries to joining in online discussions ranging from world events to discussions about the colour of your dreams and how to deal with a pregnant cat. 
There is literally something for everyone! And that's part of the Guide's charm - that feeling of inclusive belonging.
To learn more, do check out some of the welcome pages:

A 'thank you' for joining - A53146
Deciding what to write - A53209
And how do use the clever smileys - A155909
If you've got any other questions, do feel free to ask me either here or at my personal space U53353 or by visiting the ACEs at A214796
Enjoy your stay and I hope to see you around (unless you find the gold and decide to buy your own island! )!

Hello, My name is Joe and I am in a wheelchair. I drive and I am very mobile and wanted to know where I could obtain information on trying to uncover lost treasures in PA. I live on Long Island New York and we dont have any lost tresures out here to look for. (LAUGH)I am interested in doing this for the challenge and the treasure of course.
Please email me.
Thank You So Much!
Joe

Hi Joe.
This entry give you a pretty good start. From there, you might want to contact the local historical societies in the areas where you're planning to go for some more detailed information.
Good luck!

Hi Joe,
There are several treasure stories at www.coudy.com then go to the towns list and click on and see the list of un-located treasures (stories) Whether or not you find any that area of penna is largely un-spoiled. Even the remains of the Austin (Pa) Dam which failed in 1911 and wiped out the town still lie in the valley. Concrete doesn't degrade that rapidly. And Austin bank vault was never found. A nice vacation. I've been there several times. And other links. Enjoy
