19th-century burial

A remarkable discovery has been made along the shores of the Chesapeake Bay, where a Maryland resident unearthed a nearly complete human skeleton believed to be over a century old. George Oliver, a resident of Calvert County, was engaging in his routine fossil-hunting activity on November 4 when he stumbled upon this extraordinary find. During his walk along the bay's shoreline, Oliver noticed a coffin partially submerged by the low tide, revealing its contents—a human skeleton.

Oliver quickly contacted the sheriff’s department after spotting the coffin. . .
