Cert. #43, issued to R.S. Whigham for 500 shares in 1865. Signed by the president C.H.Tucker and by Joseph H. Tucker as secretary. Incorporated in New York. The Golconda Gold Mining Company was organized in Ascot in 1863 by General Adams, with it's location at Sherbrooke in Quebec. In 1863, gold was found in many small brooks falling into the Magog River creating extraordinary excitement. Well capitalized companies such as the Golconda Mining Company and the Ascott Gold Mine Company were formed as a result. The Golconda Company extracted large amounts of gold from their 450 acre property. In the catalog of the Sherbrooke Exhibition in 1865, a specimen weighing 10 ounces was mentioned as coming from this mine (Gold In The Province of Quebec, Canada, pg. 68, 1898). The certificate is black on creme. Stub attached at the bottom. Uncancelled.
