"The Witches' Graveyard" - Stamps Cemetery in Tennessee | Walking Old Graveyards
Просмотров 15 тыс.Год назад
In this video, we walk around historic Stamps Cemetery in Putnam County Tennessee. Pentagrams or stars on some of the old headstones have given this place a reputation as a witches' graveyard. Historians believe the star may have been Mr. Stamp's signature because he was illiterate and preferred not to sign documents with an X. Regardless, it appears the cemetery may be home to some ritualistic...

Doesn't look like that now.
Thank you for sharing ❤ These are my people.
This is my Great, great, great Grandmother.
This is my great, great, grandmother.
My grandparents are buried there and possibly my dad’s siblings.
Try Mt. Vernon next.
Good old Mr. The Kid.
Sad that he still Shackled and in jail
Thank you for this video. My father was born in Cedarvale. You are encouraging me to take a trip.
I have been doing a family tree on ancestry and found out my 2x great grandparents are buried here will be coming soon to find them and a uncle A
Wow! I saw some fellow Frierson’s buried there! It’s sad to see how bad off their plot was though 😢
Bonnie and Clyde are both buried in the Dallas area. Bonnie's gravesite is in North Dallas, and Clyde rests in Oak Cliff. The story is that Bonnie's mother refused to allow her daughter to be buried alongside Clyde. "There is no way my daughter is going to be buried with that lowdown scum Clyde Barrow!"
I grew up in Danville. I never knew the history behind Bonner. And the horse trough. And the sad story of Elisabeth. Would love to see Schoolfield Cemetery..have family there and Hyland, all over really
Fun fact, my great grandpa ran the town for years, he lies there today, and my r fr and parents live in that town
What was your grandfather name
These are my 5x Great Grandparents! They came from Switzerland and settled in Hoovers Gap near Bell Buckle😊 Most of our family is now scattered around but this is where it all began. Thanks for the video!
Only the names remain , Rest In Peace….
I really like your channel. I’ve always been intrigued by cemeteries. I spent several years of my childhood living in Pecos. I now live in the east near some of the cemeteries that you’ve walked in Tennessee and Alabama . It’s good to see Pecos again.
Thanks for watching! I enjoyed visiting Pecos and that whole West Texas area.
1 of my favorite cemeteries. U need 2 turn rt instead of staying strait. The most beautiful monuments are located there. Plus go to the last rt turn & follow it 2 its end. Go down the hill to the rt towards the RR tacks. I'll bet you've never seen what there by the creek.
Newbern should be ashamed!! Pat Braxton won and is the mayor!!!
THE most interesting thing about this is, all these people are STILL ALIVE in the After Life. They are only DEAD ON EARTH.
You could read dates for us !!!!!!
BE SURE TO pan-down so that we can see the totality of what is engraved on the gravestones. Don't just show us half of it and then go to the next one. Also, @3:29 would have been an interesting tomb to see who it was. HALF the interest is to see the dates and who it was. Also, shadows are a huge obstruction to sight. Hope you can fix that. Love your videos. Glad I'm not the only one who loves old cemeteries, filled with history!
drove thru the national park about 2 weeks ago. grant came down river from Nashville to Shiloh, where we live. destroyed this area then to vicksburg and destroyed it. look what has happened in our cities since then! the cities are full thugs, no law, and on the road to civil war again! no law---crazy peopleroam the streets and citizens are prosecuted if they harm the lifelong thugs. wake up AMERICA!!!
Long as hes resting in one of them
Hi, my friend. This is really a very old cemetery. One that is not much looked at anymore. I draw this conclusion given the condition of the tombstones and leaves. A very nice fence. This shows prosperity. Thank you, Keith, I really enjoyed watching these two videos again. Antoine.
Those are called tent graves
On 14 February 1851 the City of Wheeling purchased from Daniel Steenrod a parcel containing about twenty one acres for the sum of eight thousand two hundred and sixty dollars. This purchase established the new city burying ground. Graves from the existing cemeteries were relocated to the new cemetery. Once known simply as the City Cemetery, and later Peninsular Cemetery, the Peninsula Cemetery as it is now called has seen many changes. Removals from the Hempfield Cemetery were placed in the southwest corner of the cemetery located off Rock Point Road in the Manchester area of the Wheeling and many of the old tombstones from Hempfield are there. In 1964 the I-70 Interstate Road/Tunnel Project cut through the Peninsula Cemetery and over 2500 bodies were exhumed and re-interred to several area cemeteries. Most of the graves were "unknown" as the section that was referred to as the "paupers section" had no records and many were buried there. This section was near the City Pest House off Rock Point Road. It was built to house smallpox patients. The Pest House was torn down in 1933. Some years ago a sign was erected calling this now cut-off section of Peninsula Cemetery the Manchester Cemetery and has caused a lot of confusion over the years. There was indeed a cemetery in the Manchester area but it was called the Old Catholic Cemetery, and its location was down the hill from Peninsula Cemetery.
NOTE: This channel was intentionally created to host videos WITHOUT narration. The concept is to offer point-of-view videos to let you feel as though you're walking around an old graveyard, to include the sounds of the location. I appreciate the comments requesting narration, but there will never be any narration on this channel.
I like the way you do your channel. Makes me feel like I'm there. If I want to read I just rewind and pause😊
A little narration would enhance the experience, don't you think?
I'm in NC mountains, quite a few here also like that. They were peaked so they wouldn't cave in, in a way as to expose the bodies. At least those are the stories told here. Very interesting, thank you for sharing.
Where at in tn
Putnam county, just up past Algood
Why rocks penny's on stones
Leaving a penny at the grave means simply that you visited. Leaving a nickel indicates that you and the deceased trained at boot camp together. Leaving a dime means you served together in some capacity. Leaving a quarter at the grave, you are telling the family that you were with the soldier when they were killed. Many people leave stones on a loved one's grave or memorial to mark their visit. The symbol of the stone can bring comfort to family and friends, letting them know their loved one has been visited, grieved and prayed for by others, too.
Why the wood like that
Stone and it's to protect the grave when it inevitably caved in
Do they have names
Officially they are called Tent graves, but a lot of the older folks around here call them spirit graves
I think the person filming this video should do some talking on the names, dates, and a little history. Otherwise, I don’t think it’s fair to anyone watching.
Boy if that's not American Gothic I don't know what is😳🖤🖤
Why is person with camera not talking
Would be nice if the person vitotapeing the Cemetery, would read out loud the names and dates that they can read. It would be more interesting.
I’m from ga . My last name is Stamps . Like to know where this is so I could visit my ancestors!!
Putnam county TN
Just because you have the same last night don’t mean your kin please do your family history to see
@@4amcripple Thanks I just might go there since I am retired now. It would be a nice trip.
@@cathyslaton9998 Your right about that. Maybe I can find out.
Nothing against visiting graveyards....but I wouldnt touch anything if I were you! might upset someone.
I wouldn't say that's candle wax that could be fat from deer gut pile possibly those acorns could have been bait somebody may be hunting there with a bow 🏹 the gun shot at 11:00 min mark it's a good indicator I'm correct
Excellent observations in your comments -- thank you
Also grave-robbing was a huge scheme perhaps these slabs of concrete were positioning stop it from being easily robbed if you ever notice there's black wrought-iron wrapped around graves in this era to also protect its occupants from being stolen. At times graves with this type of construction were a sign to grave robbers to stay away of this grave due to plague, Yellow fever was a major killer of those times many a child's life were lost to the virus as well as adults smallpoxs also could have been the cause of deaths as well Smallpox is estimated to have killed up to 300 million people in the 20th century so it's safe to say this is a probability.
I have never seen a cemetery like that with stone slabs covering the length of the graves, very unique and unusual.
I've never seen anything like that either.
They sparingly are a southern thing. There are some in Pickett county as well.
@@ROKgem nah mom, they are literally all over fentress county too. There are some not far from the house! The cemetery in the field after the children's graveyard. York cemetery, Beaty cemetery, about every cemetery in the county has them.
Tombstones prior to 1970 or so, of males, a pretty high % were Freemasons. This is especially true South of the Mason-Dixon line. If you were male, white and a Protestant, good chance of being a Mason.
My great grandmother was a witch. She died and was buried in 1925. She got tired of being buried, so in 1936, she woke up and purchased a broom. She left for a world tour. Nobody in my family has seen her since.
Greetings from Georgia. Fascinating tour. Thank you. Never seen or heard of spirit graves.
Thumbs up Big like 👍 👌.

The OCD side of me wants to tidy up those grave stones by straightening the head stones and restoring the wonky pitched spirit stones (the two long stones covering the grave) to original placement carefully. Though I would not want to clean the actual stonework as the lichen and moss gives it character. But in reality I couldn't and wouldn't start messing with stuff like that (unless safety issues or the family wishes to repair their plots) as sometimes messing with that type of aged weathered stone can cause more damage to already fragile stonework. I live in Scotland (born, bred and raised) and we have many gorgeous very old grave yards that I love to wonder around and admire.
Nice old cemetery. Great video. Hello from Chatsworth, Georgia. I just subscribed. God Bless
