Use to know a couple of guys in Vicksburg that were Civil War relic hunters. I went metal detecting with them a few times, and amazing how much is still in the ground around there. They took me to a place called Old Warrenton just south of Vicksburg which was a Union camp ground. They had found over 200 coins in the area, with most being half dimes.
As to the location of Clinton, MS......I guess it is just the name "clinton" that gets me confused. There is also a Clinton, AR. that I drive past when going to NW Arkansas.

The town north of Jackson,MS is named "Clanton". OK, I was only one letter off.

I STILL have an excelent memory, it just doesn't last very long.......

Thanks Johnny for the correction.... Now I remember I have to drive through TWO Clintons to get to NW Arkansas from here...
