appears possibly 1930's-1940s cant tell for sure.

But in the usgs met database I dont find any from Greensburg where it was
supposedly found. The database in fact for TN only has one real large puppy,
the Cosby's Creek find from 1837. Two big chunks, one 907KG (first) one
50.8 (found later).
So in tracking these two, I find some at the TCU (m104.4) collection and some
at the Nat. Museum of History.
So... does anyone have any further information on what might be called the
Greensburg fall, or on the cosby's creek fall?
Thanks.
