IN THE NEWS

Scott Brown has been featured in various publications for his metal detecting. He is also a member of Chippewa/Rogues Hollow Historical Society and North Canton Heritage Society.

“Brown, a retired Wayne County math teacher, searches for buried history. He's found everything from coins, keys and jewelry to hem weights once used on women's dresses. Unlike many treasure hunters, Brown gives the property owners first dibs to keep everything he unearths. It's an added bonus, if he finds an item that was lost.”

Tim Botos, The Canton Repository
