Lakeville, CT has a long history as a source of Iron Ore, for the Northeast.Historically the Iron Ore was used to manufacture musket balls, cannon balls, and cannons for the Revolutionary War.My great-grandfather worked in the Ore Mine. The mine was very deep and when a natural spring was struck, the Ore Mine filled quickly with water. The machinery was left behind. The men, horses, and mules escaped. The cache is to honor who worked and risked their lives in the mine. It was really great to grow up in an area with so much history.
