@mikematters6307 hey Mike. The title says "How" to find them, not "Where." I actually did show (rather than tell) HOW to find them. Do what I show us doing in the video. Determine the era and conditions that the specific fossil was living. Use the map I showed to determine where those areas existed and that specific fossil could be found. Go to that area and dig.

The creator literally did. Determine eras of fossil existence: 2:01 Determine areas of the State that contain deposits from the specific eras: 2:16 Go to that area and dig 3:09. Seems like it's all there to me....

@@erikbrand526 thanks for the breakdown. Maybe he isn't a visual learner. Show don't tell is my goal on this page. I don't do tutorials. I tell stories.

Very cool you found a buckle. Good to hear a local confirmation of the dates on the church wall. That is one of my favorite areas of the State. Thanks for commenting.

@@Am71919 oh yeah the place by the cemetery. I will look into it.

@@runningintohistory there was a small white church that sat at this address at the eastern end of the state Street bridge

@runningintohistory it was at the Eastern end of the State Street bridge

@@karendiehl5965 thank you for watching!

@@gwilt23 we moved away a few years later in 1984. Thanks for commenting.

I have been trying to arrange that.

@runningintohistory i have been following closely

@@sherryhall3466 thanks for watching!

Thanks Dave!

I actually remember going there with him once.

Yeah definitely a shady area.

My old neighbor in Steelton was a 95 year old woman (Mrs Zimmerman") Her grandfather was David Wills, who owned the "Wills House" in Gettysburg, where Abraham Lincoln stayed before delivering the Gettysburg Address"

Mrs. Zimmerman really took a liking to me when she found out my great uncle was John Yetter. She had the hots for his older brother Gilbert. Gilbert got his Engineering degree from Penn State, and was the chief welding engineer for the Hoover Dam, among other large infrastructure projects throughout the West.

@@garysmith8593 pretty cool!

@@CherylPerry-st7xo definitely a lot of history in Chambersburg I need to get to eventually. Welcome to the channel!

@frunyan1265 good point. I meant to note that the first building I showed, (1103 N. 3rd) can be seen on the 1890 Sanborn fire map that I included in the video. The tall building on the corner (1100) doesn't show up until after 1900. Still, I don't know exactly which building or when Potts "pioneered the first apartment building." Maybe some research for a later video.

@@AmericaWorker100 thank you! And welcome to the channel!

@@runningintohistoryThanks.

@@williamsnyder944 thank you for your service! I only know the current way, but yeah they suck.

@totallynothunterYT lol a legend was born that night.

@@ElConquistedor pretty cool! I would love to get into that place some day.

Thank you. Yes, good catch on the Straw cemetery. I meant to visit for this video but ran out of time. I might eventually do a video specifically about Amanda Straw. The farm she grew up on, all her work, etc.

@runningintohistory I thought I remembered that name on a few of the headstones. Unfortunately, the park is working on that cemetery and in cleaning it up,and renovating the grounds, they have actually exposed it alot more,making it way more visible and accessible. Upkeep was/is good,of course, but it's hidden overgrown nature was part of it's charm and character,and kept alot of people away from it. Hope they don't put a big sign up,or something obnoxious. Great job on this story.

@@Chripiter thank you.

Thanks Scott!

Thanks for commenting. I would argue that the way of life for an immigrant mine worker was poverty. If you watch my video about my wealthy ancestors in Harrisburg during this same time period, you would see that Charles lived in extreme poverty for the time. If you have to wear your sister's dress to school, share socks with your brother, that is poverty even in the early 20th Century.

Good point. I was more thinking of the connection via rail. Sunbury had a line to Lewistown and Lewistown had a line to Harrisburg. A lot of railroad connections lived in that house. If you watch my short here it shows that a train robber in Lewistown, in 1909, is believed to have arrived in Wrightsville PA the next day. ruclips.net/user/shortsUUce_lADBfY?si=oTluVKygBD04j2Ic

@LoriS-ls1zd oh your problem is with Mrs. Parsons. That's even sadder. Maybe you didn't watch the video, but she was married in that church. That's the point. Fortunately most people here are glad she got to tell her story. And she did a great job of it.

OK, I just realized you are replying to that Brand guy, but not actually replying directly to him. You have to hit the reply button under the persons comment to reply directly to them. If you don't, you are just randomly posting stand-alone comments.

😂 Fiction? The creator literally included newspaper articles and an interview with a living long-time resident to show the history here. I'm starting to think there is an issue with understanding reality here. Where does Neelyton get their water from? 😂

​@@erikbrand526lol yeah strange. What is she so mad about? Nobody else is talking about Neelyton.

@@erikbrand526 yeah I addressed her question 8 months ago when I posted this. She originally stated that the video wasn't true because it wasn't abandoned. I think she is referring to my intro narration where is stated "seemingly abandoned," and then go on to show that it isn't abandoned and discuss/show it's history. I think she took offense to that intro hook. I don't know. But here we are 8 months later.

@@runningintohistory yeah you might as well start your videos off saying "there is nothing interesting here, don't watch this." 🙄

You seem bitter. Maybe make your own video if you are so concerned with the premise of this one. I think it's a great story of the town and Mrs. Parsons' life. Why would you attempt to take away from that? It's 2025. Don't be so angry this year. Try to improve or eliminate the things that are making you this way.

@@LoriS-ls1zd again, what do you consider misleading about this video? Neelyton was left behind by the East Broad Top Railroad in 1942. That's a fact. I stated "Seemingly abandoned" as an intro hook and then go on to show it isn't abandoned, including the main road and traffic going past the houses. I didn't park out front because the traffic flies through your little town and my truck would be in the way of the shot. Not sure what else to say to satisfy you, but I do think it would be cool for you to create a video giving a tour of Neelyton. I think people would find that intersetimg, particularly after the attention that this one got.
