4km west of town. 0.25 mile west of McCoy mine. (Lot 177 2nd district)
The mine and the surrounding land was originally owned by William McKinney. His daughter, Margaret McKinney, married Leander Beavert who came to Rabun County in mid 1800s. He was a Captain in the Civil War and was the Sheriff of Rabun County in 1862-63. Leander Beavert was also a well-known moonshiner. His granddaughter Mary Love Beavert married Rom Burrell and the property remained in the Burrell family for years. I have been told that the mine property was bought by a man named Norman Coleman who sold it to a developer. The mine property is now part of a development in Dillard called Wynngate. I have never heard the name Landers associated with this property or any other property in the area. It is possible, the Landers was a mistaken translation of Beavert's first name "Leander." There is a small stream called Beavert Branch that runs just west of Beavert Mountain. The old mine is located just north of Betty's Creek Road between Beavert Branch and Beavert Mountain. It is completely overgrown and with the exception of the small crater, it is barely discernable.
