Where is Captain Kidds treasure?
As the legend of Captain Kidd s treasure has been passed down from generation to generation since the early 19th century it has grown into a treasure hunter s quest. According, to the legend or story of Temple and Sheldon from 1875, Captain Kidd and his crew of fierce pirates went up the Connecticut River in search of a place to bury their stolen gold. They wanted to find the perfect spot that would be easily recognizable by them but also very secluded. Somewhere near or on Clarke s Island in Northfield, Massachusetts, close to the upper end of Pine Meadow, is believed to be the spot.
