First, Susan and Peter Palmer expose historic connections in their 1786 Vermont house when they find a stash of old shoes and a rare stoneware jug. Next, the story of a strong pioneer woman unfolds when Jeannie Kant and Keith Relyea find a stash of papers and receipts in the attic of their 1885 Wisconsin house. Then, in Couer d'Alene, Idaho, Connie and Robert Singletary hit pay dirt when they dig up an early 1900s trash pit and discover their 1903 home's original staircase in the carriage house.
