My 11th great grandfather was John Minterne The Dark Conjurer of Batcombe in Dorset, England. There is an amazing story of him making a deal with the devil. He is buried at St. Mary Magdalene church in an ivy covered grave. He was married to Margaret Wolley and had ties to Queen Elizabeth the 1st. I would love for you to make a video on his grave and story! It would mean the world to me to see his grave through your eyes.
@@deadgoodwalks I would ever be so grateful. I live in South Carolina in the states, and discovered this through ancestry dna family tree. Who knows if I will ever be able to visit on my own, but hopefully I will one day.
I just found your channel a few weeks ago and want to say that I truly love it. The cemeteries and stories are so unique and the way you present them is very respectful and relaxing, thank you for taking us on these awesome journeys 🌹
Most locations are graveyards not cemeteries, like this one. In the UK a graveyard is attached to a church and has close associations with the parish of that church. Big difference to a cemetery, for obvious reasons, and much more historic.
I love wandering through oldest parts of graveyards...sad to think so many were executed for being witches when most were just knowledgeable about herbs etc.Im glad I wasnt around then! Graveyards always remind me that even though we value our lives as individual human beings,we are nothing but insignificant and it doesnt take long to be forgotten
Lovely church from the outside and a wonderful graveyard. You can tell they have tried to keep it in great condition. Loved the Witch stone, but then I'm a rock hound (geologist by training)!
This was really interesting. Again, the monument carver's skill is shown in the angels and cherubs. It looks like someone planted a flower on Meg's grave. I wonder where I got the impression that an accused witch couldn't be buried in a church graveyard? I need to do some research! Thanks as always, Dan!
I should think the idea or practice of not burying accused witches in "consecrated" grounds (church yards) came about as a threat and punishment (like a form of excommunication) because Wicca elevates the feminine divine in opposition to the male dominated patriarchal Papacy/Catholic Church. And Wicca celebrates nature as opposed to a single male figure.
Poor old Meg... sounds like she had a specific set of skills that villagers could blame her for. I'd like to think she still gets out from under her boulder and wonders the graveyards before climbing into her resting place again. Great video 👍🏻
Hi Dan, new subscriber here, love your channel dude! Have been binge watching your videos today and seeing all the really old graves, plus the history that goes along with them. It reminds me of a comedy special I saw years ago that Eddie Izzard put on, when he comes to the stage and introduces himself, he says at one point, “I’m British, from England, you know where history comes from,!”. 😂. Take care brother! -Steve
Most stones are in excellent and readable condition. The poor person buried under paving stones.Beautiful church yard. Never heard the story about her. You have a lovely accent. (I’m in Massachusetts)
Love your channel, you have a nice relaxing voice too. The graves with just the initials of the person and the date they passed away is because you had to pay per letter.
Another awesome video Dan. That was sad how they buried Meg. Just a rock to mark her grave, no name or anything. I love the cemetarys/graveyards there. I could walk through them all day. Here in America ours aren't so amazing, at least I haven't found one yet. Loved the video. Love from Georgia USA
Where I live in north central Ohio, my area has several that look very similar to this one. But None are from 1688! When I was younger & better health, I used to take my grandkids & dog walking & reading stones in the cemeteries.
@@marshawargo7238 I live in a small town in Georgia and the closest one to look similar to those in the UK are in Savannah Georgia. But I don't think any as old as 1688. Maybe 1700's or 1800's.
You haven't been to any of the good old ones yet then, there are beautiful, fascinating cemeteries in the States. The ones in New Orleans and in Savannah Georgia (surprised to hear you live in Georgia but think we don't have amazing cemeteries) are the first to come to mind. I live in Durham and the Oakwood Cemetery in Raleigh is really old and beautiful.
England has some beautiful Cemeteries. If I ever visit London I'll be checking out the Cemeteries myself. But this was interesting story. Sad too with how they treated someone accused of Witchcraft or even refusing to take the Last Rights.
Love your work! Many thanks to you for your excellent videos which are so interesting, so clear and at a perfect speed. You have an exceptional talent! 👍🇨🇦

I am happy to find your work as I find cemeteries so peaceful, I also love the art and architecture of the Victorian age in cemeteries, the stories of those interred. Liked and subscribed!
Thank you for your interesting tours. I think there are similar examples across the pond, in the US, (remember Salem?) where the witches were buried with stones on top to stop them from resurrecting!
@@deadgoodwalks yes, I live in tennessee, and we have a few witches, some of the houses are still standing. The bell witch is famous and you can still go into the cave where she was possessed. The few witches in my hometown have smaller rocks covering g their grave or bricks. The legend is if you take a brick or a rock the witch will come and take it back or will haunt you until it's returned. Somehow the stones or brick pieces do disappear.
Being a witch she was probably not given a very sturdy coffin, likely the wood roted and began to allod dirt to drop in, causing the ground to form sinkholes, gas pockets and such.
Hi, wow this was interesting, I LOVE witches ☺️ I couldn't help smiling when you said she kept climbing out of her grave🤨 this place is beautiful, thanks for the walk, stay save x
Great content for us that unable to visit . I'm sure others have suggested that if u take a picture of the writings on the graves u can see the writings better, even if it's really bad . I've seen other channels do that and it helps alot. Again thank u. I love cemetery's and even use to live in one when my dad use to be a caretaker of one here in southern California in the 70's.
Thanks man. Another great outing. You've been busy this week. Shame about that poor old girl who got squashed by the barrel. That kind of lore and stories following someone for nearly 320 years is awful. Be careful out there, have a great one!
The 4 year old and 8 year old really hit the mark for me and struck tears. That would be so tragic to lose your special child that young, I can't imagine. Alot of very cool monuments, really great video.
I’m going with this woman figured out the approximate shelf span of milk, knew enough about agriculture to tell when a farmer would have a bad yield and knew enough about livestock to tell when they were coming down with something. Also most likely she wasn’t actually dead. She was likely alive, probably unconscious with very shallow breathing, and when she came to she found a way to dig herself out (911 operators literally have protocols and training to talk someone through digging themselves out when buried alive) and kept doing it as many times as she had to until they put a boulder on her and probably murdered her
You have a wonderful channel and such interesting content. Thank you for all the work you put into it and also for sharing it with us. Something about the beginning of your video reminds me of a scene in a Dr. Who episode. I can’t help but wonder if it was filmed at the same church. Take care everyone 👋🏻
Beautiful and interesting. Do you know what made everyone think she was digging herself out? How many times did it happen? And how was it that she was allowed to be buried in consecrated grounds? Sorry for so many questions lol
I think you said one of Meg’s talents was making milk sour. 😳 I think many of us would be in trouble today if someone looked in our refrigerators. Thank you for the lovely tour. PS: sometimes I forget how short lives were back then. Sad.
Another beautiful explore and if that is even slightly true about Meg am surprised buried there 😮 cute a pink flower was there by the rock ❤ Rest in Peace. Very well kept this one ❤
I just stumbled across your channel... and I'm digging it! Thank you for this great content, I'll be binge watching 🖤 *** by the way, could someone plz tell me what's up w/ the coffin shaped grave markers? Ty!
Once while in school we had a field trip to our town’s cemetery lol. It was very interesting living in Michigan we were shown the grave warmer. Used to break the frost in the ground and the cold storage for winter months. We have 3 cemeteries that have cold storage crypt’s you can see. That is one thing I’ve noticed your cemetery doesn’t have cold crypt’s, your ground must not freeze. Of course the cold crypt’s are no longer used because of backhoes but neat historical. 🇺🇸
Pretty cemetery and well kept. Amazing story, I've heard of her but don't know how sadly alot of women accused of being a 'witch' were killed. RIP Meg 🌹
Poor woman was probably just a collector of herbs and natural remedies. It’s likely she delivered a few babies and used a few of her mixes to help people out. One unfortunate incident in the village and they all look at her.
Not just women were accused as witches sometimes children men were accused of it for many reasons half of it was greed because then their land and property would be auctioned off to the town. Usually to those who run the bank or the head of the town aka the mayor or chamberlain depending on their title.
This may be a stupid question. Since these stones have sometimes several family members names/death dates, does it mean they kept burying them on top of each other sharing one grave? The graves look small to be side by side. Thank you for the interesting places. Here in the USA our land was the "New world" and we are limited on the age of our cemeteries.
Yeah, they're usually on top of each other. I'm not sure if they remove the original burial and dig further down or just put them straight on top....I'd love to know though
My parents share a grave and they are buried "on top" of one another. My father is twelve feet down and my mother is six feet down. It's called a double depth burial.
Some of the graves here are very unique, and I noticed many headstones are lying on the ground, seem to be there right back from the burial. It's sad, because the elements are much quicker able to do their destruction to the inscriptions than to a standing stone. But I cannot believe that a woman who was estimated of being a witch, was buried in sacred ground, that's unusual. In these days there was a special ground on the cemetery, where no priest has ever spoken a prayer for people who were condemned as witches, people who had committed suicide, what was the worst of sins, or even murderers, they all got no blessing when put into the ground. So why bury a witch here amongst "good" people?
I thought witches were not buried in sacred ground as a church yard? So maybe she had special dispensation of the minister to be allowed to be on sacred ground?
Thanks Dan. Interesting about Meg.

No worries Cathy! It's so sad isn't it and there's probably 100s of more stories like Megs

I wonder where I got the impression that an accused witch couldn't be buried in a church graveyard? I need to do some research! Thanks as always, Dan!
The flower was a sweet touch wasn't it. Yeah I thought that too but maybe we just think that because they're associated with evil?
I was always under the impression that witches could not be buried in consecrated ground as well. The Meg thing could be a myth.
Good point! My family once questioned whether I SHOULD be buried with them. And that's in the 20th century.

Not just women were accused as witches sometimes children men were accused of it for many reasons half of it was greed because then their land and property would be auctioned off to the town. Usually to those who run the bank or the head of the town aka the mayor or chamberlain depending on their title.
What a beautiful cemetery

Hello Candia, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
This may be a stupid question. Since these stones have sometimes several family members names/death dates, does it mean they kept burying them on top of each other sharing one grave? The graves look small to be side by side. Thank you for the interesting places. Here in the USA our land was the "New world" and we are limited on the age of our cemeteries.
Yeah, they're usually on top of each other. I'm not sure if they remove the original burial and dig further down or just put them straight on top....I'd love to know though
My parents share a grave and they are buried "on top" of one another. My father is twelve feet down and my mother is six feet down. It's called a double depth burial.
Its so sad to see graves of children. I always wonder how they died.

Hello Tina, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
This cemetery is grand.😊
Whenever you focus in on the angels, I can't help thinking about the Weeping Angels from Dr Who 🙈
Some of the graves here are very unique, and I noticed many headstones are lying on the ground, seem to be there right back from the burial. It's sad, because the elements are much quicker able to do their destruction to the inscriptions than to a standing stone. But I cannot believe that a woman who was estimated of being a witch, was buried in sacred ground, that's unusual. In these days there was a special ground on the cemetery, where no priest has ever spoken a prayer for people who were condemned as witches, people who had committed suicide, what was the worst of sins, or even murderers, they all got no blessing when put into the ground. So why bury a witch here amongst "good" people?
Maybe he's digging a grave but still looking for a body, lol.

@@Trevorjennings679 Stop scamming and harassing people!!
Beautiful cemetery
Gosh lots of those people died so tragically young. Very sad 🥺
I thought witches were not buried in sacred ground as a church yard? So maybe she had special dispensation of the minister to be allowed to be on sacred ground?
Why was a witch be buried on consecrated ground?
Hello Lori, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
It’s so disrespectful to continue calling her a witch as if it was a fact. How can someone Rest In Peace ?
