Thank you for watching!
My grandparents, who lived in Comanche county TX, said they never locked their doors at night until Bonnie and Clyde started making the news.
That's very interesting.
...but if y'all noticed it was more law men they killed (RIP) than civilians and even so they even let some go!
Blimey….how old were your grandparents when they told you this? If they lived together when B&C were running riot, you don’t look that old, so when did they tell you this? My GREAT grandmother didn’t die until she was 96, and I was 13 then, so…. I’m just confused as to the time discrepancies.
@@cathyvaughan5092oh ok that makes it all better, wow
She could have meant each of them separately in their own homes @@pommiebears
I'm amazed that the little garage apartment is still standing and looks almost exactly as it did in 1933.
The owners over the years have done a great job in preserving it. Thank you for watching!
It was on the south side of Joplin and there wasn't much out there then. It gave them several escape roads. It is close to 3 states.
I THOUGHT THE TORNADO WIPED OUT THE WHOLE TOWN??
@@Curly34584 it got about half the town but not where this house is. The house is south of the tornado
@@swhip897 ok. tks
I'm actually friends with a current Barrow family member. They have all the old photos and original articles. Pretty cool to be shown pieces of history
That would be really neat to see and hear what's been passed down.
Bad history. They were bad people. Why worship and idolize that?
Just because someone is discussing it doesn't mean they are worshiping them or idolizing them. You're discussing them now are you worshiping them? Why did you click on the video? If it showed up in your recommended to view then it means you have watched something that could be questionable as well. It's history and we cannot ignore history. We grew as a society because of people like Bonnie and Clyde. Our national, state and local police forces reformed and improved.
@@danelogan1532 if you dont know why then shut up they where heroes of the time it was people vs the government and they where the ones that dare to not be sheep and went against the system to have some wealth and live a free life. They where robing hood of there time. Maybe because the goverment was spending all the money on war again possibly because of the whole soviet thing leaving next to none for the people . Hard times!
That is so awesome
I want my headstone to say, 'Don't just stand there, water my flowers'.
Good one..
@Tim LOL...
i want mine to say ' if you can read this your standing on my boobs'
I want my headstone to read
"Death is just the beginning"
😂
Your video is very good, informative and well explained.
Thank you Dean. I appreciate you watching!
I am by no means glorifying Bonnie and Clyde nor am I worshiping them. I enjoy studying about them though and what I am doing is telling their historical story. It's a story that I am not done with and at some point I will be covering more locations and people which will include the victims. It's impossible to place it all in one episode especially with how widespread they were. You have to realize how they helped revolutionize our federal, state and local police forces. If we had not learned from this we would be facing the same fate with victims over and over again. Police forces at the time were severely underequipped. Police usually had a little revolver, no police training and farm pickups as patrol cars. They were often old and held together with bailing wire and chewing gum. Bonnie and Clyde did everything better than police for a couple years. But when we realized that we needed to change things to compete with criminals like this there were a lot less of them. When I used the word beloved it might help to look up the definition of it. Much of the press and public at the time were interested in them. People wanted a piece of them and to view them. They were popular long before any movies or songs. In order to understand history you must look at both sides. And that is what I'm attempting to do. It's virtually impossible for you to cover the victims without understanding what happened. There are many stories throughout history that have both good and bad connected to them.
107 bullet holes in the car. I have a picture of the car
They needed more bailing wire and chewing gum, huh? @@scottnorris2411
@@scottnorris2411 I wonder, just exactly, how dead is dead enough?
Well a two year spree from unorganized police was most certainly long enough. That's why Gibsland, LA happened.
@@donnance1480 They both looked completely dead to me in the original pictures immediately after they were shot full of holes!
The “Highway men” brought me here great research and video! ... from NZ
Thank you and I appreciate you watching!
Damn you too lol just finished the movie highwaymen 😉
Thank you for watching
It was a good movie, at least we know there won't be a part 2
Great movie!!
I'm interested in history and I've heard a lot about Bonnie and Clyde, but you bring a lot of new facts to the story.
Thank you for watching!
These folks were amateurs the thieves we have in our midst today are professional stealing millions and millions of dollars of our hard-earned tax money those are the ones we should hate
They were not amatuers in their day. Today, they would be the ones doing the crimes you are speaking of.
You get an A for video history .
Thank you! I appreciate that.
My late father viewed Bonnie's body as a boy. My paternal grandparents are buried in the same cemetery as Blanche.
It's amazing how many people wanted to see her as well as attend the funeral..
@@RhettyforHistory and for what reason they were ruthless murders case closed
@@dickstephens2541 it was history. And at that time, unheard of things that they did. Shocking to most people.
Great video. I love this type of history.
Thank you for watching!
A 30 minute RUclips video that actually kept my interest, very interesting and informative. What an amazing time in our history. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Ten33! I appreciate you watching!
Hi, i have to agree this is one very fascinating video full of facts and stories.
Thank you Derek!
All three of the Barrows sons were dead before their parents. As a mother, I can’t imagine the pain of that. Devastating.
@@pommiebears my great grandma buried 3 of her 5 kids before herself and her husband before the 3 kids
I know they were criminals but their graves should not be desecrated
I agree. Most of the people that do that are overly infatuated with them.
but not in a sick way as much as Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails... I don't know if this story is true or not but I have a feeling it is :
It is said that years ago he recorded an album in the living room where Sharon Tate (and... I can't think of his name... forgive me ) where they died those brutal horrible murders , including her eighth month baby fetus .
It is also said he bought the door , the front door that had bloody words written on it "pigs " or "Helter Skelter " ...I can't remember now what I read about it.. but it was written in the victims' blood and he kept it as a souvenir...why ? How sad and horrible .
I agree
You know the family members of Bonnie and Clyde want to I'm working I'll see if they can have I do know a gravesite for Bonnie and Clyde they're working on it but now when you go to that Grace to Clyde's gravesite UFC like 22 bullets on his grave site and a 12-gauge shotgun shells on his grave site so you got a lot of people who admire them for what they did
@Rodney NormanYou don't need to tell me...you should tell that to Trent Reznor .
This was tastefully done. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome Kristi. Thanks for watching!
I have listened to quite a few narrators, and I must tell you, you are very good! You stick to your topic and don't hesitate at your next words. I've enjoyed your story telling. Thank you!
You're welcome and I'm glad you enjoyed the story. Thank you for watching!
This documentary is so beautifully done! I especially love how you are so respectful of the historical sites and the graves. It really warms my heart to see that. Thank you for doing this. Cheers!
You're welcome and I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching and commenting!
You are so good at this man. You really know your history. I thought I almost knew everything to know about Bonnie & Clyde, but you have already proved me wrong. Thank you for sharing buddy. I am halfway through and I will continue watching.
Thanks Jay! There's so much to the story of Bonnie and Clyde that I'll have to cover it in some later videos. This one was long enough. Maybe too long. 🤓
Tampa Jay Imagine findingyou here, too, my friend!
I have the ordinal Dallas newspaper of the death of Bonnie and Clyde
Wow! That's a collector's item for sure. Especially from Dallas.
Gil Love Wow!
no one's grave should be disrespected despite who they were and what they did...death is the clearance of their soul...they should never disrepsect anyone's resting place
Ppl that do that have no respect for the souls that passed, or for themselves.
Tell that to the families of the victims they left behind. I'm sure they will agree with you.
They are most likely in hell right now getting punished for what they did may Allah bless you all.
seriously??? they had no soul when they went on their crime spree killing cops and civilians, genious.
Yeah, what about the nonces, murderers, rapist's , grasses, burglars them types ? I doubt they get a lot of rest anyway .. ph.
Everyone saying they should have had a trial Clyde wasn't going back to prison an ambush was the only option Clyde would kill anyone trying to take him down .
Clyde was never going to allow an arrest much less a trial. You're right about that.
He said he would die before he go back to jail..
I don't blame him. He deserved to be in jail but he didn't deserve what happened to him. But,neither did anyone deserve what he did to them
@@alexandermacdougall7873 He deserved worse. His death was instant, the people he murdered was not. He murdered one of his partners with a baseball bat, an unarmed innocent gas station attendant, and many more. Despicable people always deserve despicable deaths...
@@Nate-bn5kk I agree. My statement was in reference to his first stints in jail,where he got abused and tortured by other prisoners and guards. I thought I had said "he didn't deserve what happened to him there"
FANTASTIC VIDEO!!!
Very good job!!!
You also are gifted with a great speaking voice for story telling..... very articulate!
Thank you Will! I appreciate the kind words as well as you watching.
A very good, factual, and accurate book about Bonnie and Clyde is "Go Down Together" by Jeff Gunn. Most content is from actual immedidate Barrow and Parker family members.
Years ago, we rented that apartment in Joplin for an overnight stay. The only thing that upgraded was the toilet. In the living room, in the wooden floor, someone had obviously been throwing a knife into it. It was really cool to know that Bonnie and Clyde slept there too.
I used to live in Joplin down the street from this apartment in 1974, it looks good now, but in 1933 when Bonnie & Clyde stayed there it was a little dumpy, it stayed runned down until the 1967 movie of Bonnie & Clyde with Warren Beatty came out, after that somebody started fixing it up and made a tourist attraction out of it. What a lot of people don’t know is, for the movie, they actually filmed the get away scene at the actual location of the apartment. It took them all morning & all afternoon to film an eight minute segment for that part of the movie.
Have you considered being a tour guide.
No, not really. That would mean I would be confined to one area. I enjoy seeing what all else is out there too much. Thanks for watching Irene.
You really put a lot of work into this one Rhetty, and I appreciate it.
History should never be forgotten, so it needs to be talked about.
I have to say though, I feel so bad for all the innocent victims and their families as a lot of people seem to find these two fascinating, I find them to be cold blooded killers of to many innocent people.
A lot of info in this one, thanks 🙏 Rhetty. ❤️Jodie 🇦🇺
I'm not sure why there is a romantic fascination between Bonnie and Clyde. I personally don't think it was as deep as some would like to think. This one did require quite a bit of work. Thank you for watching Jodie!
@@RhettyforHistory I was hoping I didn’t word things wrong because like I said, I like to hear and talk about history as well. Just can’t grasp when people seem to start falling into the trap of liking people like that. I have heard some people say: I love Bonnie and Clyde. 🥴
Once again buddy; outstanding video of our history! Very well put together! Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing!
Not sure why this never showed up until now. Thanks for always watching and commenting!
my grandfather and his brother walked up on Bonnie and Clyde sleeping in their car bird hunting one morning outside of Larned Kansas they were both young and packing shotguns as they were bird hunting they startled Bonnie and Clyde and if it wasn't for Bonnie grabbing Clyde's hand and telling him they were just kids Clyde probably would have killed them both Bonnie told them both just to keep going truly don't believe that Bonnie was the killer she was portrayed to be
deon Valentine Yeah let's just forget about the accessory to murder and hanging around a complete sociopath that was psychotic she was not innocent in any way and if she was, she wouldve left Clyde to his own devices. Running and hiding out with a criminal is a crime. End of story. You're helping someone who is a clear threat to society and that's not good at all.
George Roper Sure, your status in society shouldn't be a factor in whether you're guilty of something or not. Everyone should be treated equally right.
Yeah sure my grandad was on the store and didn't have enough for licorice candy so clyde shot the clerk and gave it to him
Merge Chaos she was in love
wow thats a really cool story
love Bonnie and Clyde this was an amazing story thanks for sharing.
You're welcome and thank you for watching!
Some interesting information there!
My wife's boys are Barrow, and yes they are related. Not exactly a good thing when one of them gets into trouble at school. 😝😂
Yes I could see where that would be a problem. Thanks for watching Robert!
I guess the apple don't fall far from the tree does it?
The Highwaymen brought me here hope
You like the movie or get a chance to see it knowing the knowledge you do must make some movies cringe worthy on incorrect history the story of frank hamer is interesting seeing the chase of Bonnie and Clyde from a different perspective of ruthless killers with no mercy glorified by the public
I hate the old Bonnie and Clyde movie. Couldn't be further from the truth. I'm looking forward to the Highwaymen. It's supposed to rectify the story and tell it more accurately. Thanks for watching!
that movie was horrible.
production was good,but it was really slow.
@@johndillinger8482 Agreed! I expected so much more.
Long over due! I'm glad they made it happen.
That movie brought me here too. It's a really good movie.
Excellent video my friend! That was a lot of work!!! Thanks for sharing it!
Thank you for watching and commenting! It was a lot of work but it was worth it!
I thought Bonnie's husband died.... And Clyde gave that ring to Bonnie from a hold up job ?? When she said she liked it ?? "Divorces ?
No he died after Bonnie and Clyde were both killed. She was still married to Roy, still had his name tattooed on her thigh and still wore the wedding ring from Roy the whole time she was with Clyde.
I've been waiting to watch this. It really a special feeling to be in a place where historic events happened. And through this excellent video I felt like I was right there with you. Your work is fantastic!
Thank you! It's such a somber feeling standing in the spot where the officers were shot but at the same time it was fascinating to see. I appreciate your kind words as well as you watching.
Sad to see anyone's resting place is disrespected.
I really liked your story telling 🕊🕊👍
Thank you Kimbo. It is sad bc to see that happen. Old outlaw graves and depression era outlaws are what I see it nv done to most.
theres no grass there cause shes rotting in hell
Dillinger what's the two choked up about them being killed because any time any of the Dillinger game just trying to make find a place to run and hide from the cops Bonnie and Clyde made it worse for every Outlaw out there
Orlando Ramos ;
Good video. Here is a site made for the b&C folks who want accurate information. Read the Playboy interview with WD Jones. He states Bonnie never fired a gun but was a "hell of a loader". As to the stupid remark that Bonnie was really a man is just plain wrong. I saw the B&C car when I was 12 years old at the Tx State Fair and there was a newspaper clipping showing some of the bullet holes in Bonnie's chest and it showed her right breast with a bullet hole above it. No doubt she was a female.
You can spend a lot of time reading here. texashideout.tripod.com/bc.htm Read the Playboy interview with WD Jones and get his first hand experience with Bonnie and Clyde.
The B&C car is now in a Las Vegas casino but I don't remember which one. Also at one time they replaced the glass and ran it in a classic car race.
Bonnie and Clyde were actually called Clyde and Bonnie when they first started. That is how Ted Hinton referred to them in his book "Ambush". And he also stated that the owner of the truck used to get B&C to stop was tied to a tree over night and was not a willing partner in the ambush.
Don't worship bad ppl !!! Worship the Lord 🙏😁
No one is worshiping them by telling the history.
This guy is doing a great job
Thank you!
Hamer and Gault were brilliant trackers. A great tracker can put two and two together, seemingly out of nothing, a great tracker sees and thinks at a level beyond most people.
Hamer was certainly legendary. Even well before Bonnie and Clyde. But you're right about good trackers.
You just watching Netflix that is why u said that I'm sure
The movie about them is great, the credits were really cool too see the real them.
I have a video that has a lot of pics of them.
From a book I read, Hamer was tipped off by the father of Barrow gang member Henry Methvin, that Bonnie and Clyde would be going down that road at that time.
Just finished Jeff Guinn's book "GO DOWN TOGETHER" which I consider the definitive story on Bonnie and Clyde. In the book he states that Bonnie's mother (in an unpublished biography) did not want her buried next to Clyde. Also speculation as to one of the assassins taking a valise full of cash. Souvenir seekers were detained from removing Clyde's left ear and trigger finger while one woman managed to cut a few locks from Bonnie's hair and a swatch from her dress. Hammer, after the shooting, walked to the front of the auto and shot Bonnie several more times through the windshield. Makes you wonder who the real animals were in this scenario.
Yes Emma did not want Bonnie buried next to Clyde. Bonnie was still married and still wearing her husband, Roy's, wedding ring the whole time she was with Clyde. Some of the artifacts are all over from the onlookers taking them. They were certainly after Clyde's trigger finger with a pair of poppers. It really is sickening.
What about Frank Hamer and Maney Gault ? Frank is the one that tracked them down and was the brains behind the whole ordeal.
I have a separate video on those two if you are interested in seeing it.
Good job on the video. History should be important to us all. It is sad however when we don't learn from it, especially from our mistakes. I'm like you when it comes to this is not a worship thing or gloryfing what these people did, but learning from it. It is history,bad or good.
Yes I agree with you 100%! In order to understand where we are today and why we do things the way we do we have to understand what got us there. I'm glad that you and I understand that. I just wish more did as well. Thanks for commenting as well as watching!
@@RhettyforHistory I understand that too. I'm a history buff and history major. I'm also a new subscriber to your channel. You are SOOOO good at what you do. Please don't stop☺
Thank you Christine. I appreciate your kind words as well as you watching and subscribing.
Well said. And i agree 100%!!! Any history is fascinating, in any country. And its so good to learn all the details.
You my friend really stand out with this exceptional production about Bonnie and Clyde, I was glued to and hanging on to everything you have to say about this historical time and events. Your knowledge and research and narration is second to none and absolutely fascinating. Many thanks for your truthful facts and efforts for putting this out.Love this and thanks from UK.
Thank you Derek! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it and I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. I will have a little more on the story here in a couple weeks so stay tuned.

Thank you! I appreciate you watching.
very interesting history. thank you for sharing. you did an awesome job as usual my friend :)
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
What a sweet treat to watch this. Blanche Frasure’s words that she thought it was fortunate Bonnie died with Clyde so they wouldn’t have to live without each other.....
I think she knew the agony of going on without Buck. She was deeply in love with him and I would argue more so than Bonnie was with Clyde. Thank you for watching.
How could her mom say on her tombstone how sweet her life was? They killed so many children’s fathers who were police officers. People navigate to their graves because of curiosity, not respect. They were bad people and now are in hell , but they made that choice, noone else did. Sorry to say this but the families on both side look dumb. Very interesting video though, thank you!
You're welcome and thanks for watching!
Well done. Very interesting. Thank you!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
My dad was one of those who got to view Bonnie's body at the funeral home
Did he talk about how long it took him?
I remember visiting clyde's grave when I was a kid in the 70's
Imagine how many people have visited between then and now!
This Video is just as interesting as watching the movie. I don't know what it must've been like back then just don't understand why two young people would live a life of crime to die so young
Thank you for watching. I think they were dirt poor during the depression and they wanted something better. In the end it didn't pay off and even while they were getting away with it they weren't really enjoying it.
I have been to that grave site and I did a paranormal investigaton at Bonnie and Clyde's grave
Did you try Bonnie's original grave?
something like 84 years has passed and people still remember those two crazy people, as their actions was crazy, maybe they should have ran off to Mexico instead of staying here in the states
Mexico has sure had it's share of crazy criminals as well.
And they never would've been heard from again because they would've been robbed and murdered within a month especially if they had money. Mexico is not safe for criminals unless you got connections there
There you go!!
I find their story interesting. Mainly because of her being a relative on my mother side.
That is interesting.
Yea right
@@gtx-808 Believe what you would like to believe. I owe no explanation or proof to anyone. Have a good day Sr.

That was such a great vlog. Good documentary. You did allot of digging and it shows. Very professional. Thanks for this story.
Thanks Stephen! Lots of research and wandering around trying to find it all. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
@@RhettyforHistory I never knew the story of their lives, other than that they were 'outlaws' who were gunned down, but I was very familiar with the song about "Bonnie & Clyde"....it is running an 'earwig' loop through my head now that I watched your fascinating video! To me, the song was very famous, more so than the actual story of exactly what they did. I was surprised you did not hear of the song until recently. Thanks for your work!
Thank you for watching. The actual events were extremely well documented which all led to their popularity and eventually all the songs and the movies.
I love Bonnie and Clyde they should have been buried together or side by side I wish the they could have lived I didn't agree with the set up Clyde was betrayed by his friend that was a real shame rip Bonnie and Clyde love y'all
Most criminals do betray one another. It's all about looking out for oneself.
Barrow family member here. Great video my man, thanks for sharing part of my family's story!!
Braden Barrow that’s awesome I hope u are a real barrow
@@brandonphillips9689
Why? Nothing at all to be proud of.
JB ye ik but it’s still cool
If you go back far enough in your family history everyone has something or someone that wasn't good. I know I sure do.

Thank you! Interesting facts about these people! 😇💜
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
I appreciate your interest in our history, and wanted to thank you for all you share.
My son's grandmother has letters from Bonnie as she was once Bonnie's babysitter. The story's she would tell us about that time paint a totally different picture of Bonnie.
Keep up the excellent work!

We are doing our best. I hope you stay safe as well!

I love the fact that Bonnie's mom didn't bury them together, she absolutely doesn't deserve to rest in eternity with the love of her life after the misery they both caused, she even laughed after shooting someone to death.
Then you were not brought up right cause the last wishes of the dead either good or bad should always be honored. Even prisoners who are to be executed have their last wishes honored.
@@pieheadthemainiac5480 you know NOTHING of my upbringing and don't you dare speak on it just cause I don't agree with Bonnie being put to rest with Clyde, the same way her mother felt which is why they aren't buried together or was she not brought up right either? FOH
@@pieheadthemainiac5480what if their last wishes are to live? So….they’re not always honoured, are they?
@@pommiebears stop acting like a child . That comment I’m not even gonna answer cause that’s exactly what a child or a very uneducated mamas boy would say.
@@pommiebears well, you know, I suppose their wishes are honoured within reason. If it's your appointed time to go, then being allowed to live is just not reasonable. But...like chicken fried steak for a last meal is reasonable, even if the person goes crazy with a specific demand for really fancy gravy or something.
Fults didn't become a Christian, he became a mason, two whole different things. A Christian is of God, a mason is a false cult.
Excuse me,my father was a mason.
After the shoot out ambush, the car had stopped...
she was still breathing. The Texas Ranger walked behind the stopped car and fired several MORE shoots into Bonnie's side of the car . Look at the death car and you'll SEE the bullet holes he fired from the rear of the car.
Killing her and she leaned forward, as she was when He opened the door.
Pretty awful way for a Law Enforcement Officer to act, I think!!!! :(
They were tight lipped about the incident.
Appreciate your interest and taking the time to show us this history.
You're welcome Joe! I appreciate you watching and commenting!
Excellent, simple and logical directions to find the graves, great job. Don't know why someone would leave spent shell casings of a caliber Clyde never used. Too dumb to know any better I guess. Well done on a fascinating look at history!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching and commenting. It is interesting to see what people have left. I thought the same thing you did when I saw the shells. There were quite a few.
Well,saying that,some donk or failed comedian left a RED rose on Richard III tomb in Leicester!
@@suzietrecallion1042 They should have left a horse!
Great job I just finished saw the Netflix movie Highway Man and google more about those famous criminals and find this good investigators video. Excellent job and narrative.
I really thought they did a great job on The Highwaymen. Thanks for watching and commenting.
You should watch the Bonnie and Clyde movie with Johnny Depp ( I think that's who it is)but it's pretty good.
I believe the movie with Johnny Depp is on Dillinger. Warren Beatty was in the 1967 Bonnie and Clyde movie. Then there have been some made for TV ones.
Highway Men is a great movie
Yes it is. I really enjoyed it.
This video is great. Has alot of information in it. If you dont like the video why waste your time to comment or watch? Wow get your lives straight people.
Bonnie and Clyde were still people. Just people who got lost in life. There are many myths as well that are not even true... dont listen to everything you see.
Thank you! It does make me wonder why they clicked on it if they are so against it. It would not have come up asa suggestion for them if they hadn't been watching other videos on them or other criminals.
Very respectfully filmed and narrated, thank you.
You're welcome and thanks for watching.
This was one of the best if not the best presentation on Bonnie and Clyde that I have viewed to date.. The interstate travel and on site video and details provided shows dedication of the Author or Publisher. Thank you for posting it.
Thank you and I appreciate you watching. This took quite a bit to put together. I will have a little continuation to the saga in a couple weeks.
I was reading that in 2019 the remaining family members of Bonnie and Clyde were trying to get them buried together as they had wanted. I am hopeful that this happens. Despite the lives they lead I always feel like the wishes of those who've died should be honored.
Yes there are two family members that have been trying to make that happen for years. A guy from the Barrow family and a lady from Parker family.
I wholeheartedly agree #AndrewBarnets whether good or bad the last wishes of the deceased should be honored.
I have a friend, his name is Wheel. He claims to be related to Clyde. Poor, Wheel his legs don't work anymore. So he gets aroundby people holding them and pushing him around.
They were killers
@@Stephaniewashere about?? or your not taking to me??🤷🏻♂️🥹
So this building survived the Joplin tornado? God Bless Joplin!
Yes it did. Not far from there though is complete devastation that they are still rebuilding from.
I have read that the tornado was the cause of having to replace the original garage doors.
@@sundownsigns The tornado path was a mile or two north of this site so I don't believe that was the case. Could have just been rotten from age. Some previous owners several years ago tried to prevent the building from becoming a tourist attraction to maintain the privacy of the property. The door was also replaced but I think someone stepped in to get it registered as a landmark. The current owners appear to be supportive of the preservation.
@@LIBICU812 I travel through this country often and I saw some significant damage south of the house site. Regardless, I only read the account of the doors being replaced because of tornado damage so it's only hearsay.
Who Janis ✌️❤️
Bonnie is not getting flowers where she is now, what a shame to choose a life like that
I have seen flowers on there before but it is constantly changing because so much is left there.
This is really interesting! Thank you for taking us along to visit history! 👍 You’ve done a great job!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching as well as commenting.
Thank you for the information. You did a great job with this video. You showed respect for the families and didn't do anything bad to any property. So what's next on your program.
Thank you and I appreciate you watching as well as commenting. I should have a new video this Saturday so stay tuned!
Desperate times called for desperate measures. Clyde Barrow as a young man was raped and beaten in one of the most notorious prisons, fear of going back to that would drive anybody to murder. Bonnie's backround would mitigate her actions as well, that kind of power and control,at long last now in their grasp would be intoxicating, but in the lives of these two just got .....out of control, and once again chaos reigned over them. Shakespeare himself would appreciate the tragedy of this story.
lightheart53 Yes Shakespeare would appreciate their story lol.
Clyde actually did go back there, and raided the place ,killing guards, and releasing prisoners .his hatred for Eastham farm wasn't contrived .and no, we shouldn't idolize folks who killed people on Christmas and Easter.
lots of other people suffered the same and worse and didn't become murderers
Well I like your comment. Its just so much deeper than the surface. Burning is right that they did and those poor families absolutely deserved justice however everyone is entitled to their own feelings.
Prison is not designed to stop crime its built to take the criminal off the streets into a place where he will come out worse. It's all a game for police...its been since day one. If prison was the key, then why is crime only getting worse not any bit better.
Just want to say thank you. Very interesting. Ive always been intrigued by bonnie and clyde. Thank you for telling me things i didnt know. Great job!
You're welcome and thank you for watching and commenting Ericka.
I heard that Bonnie and Clyde were not buried together,I think that they were afraid they would start trouble in the underground !
This video explains it.
Emma, Bonnie's mother did not want Clyde to have her for eternity. Not to mention Bonnie was married to her husband Roy who was in prison.
This was nicely done. You did a wonderful job of being objective and respectful in making this video.
These people were hated by the nation, their actions shouldn't be glorified but people should just leave them in peace at the very least if they can't respect their graves.
Thank you and I appreciate you watching.
Respectful? they were stone cold robbers and murderers, they killed at least 13 people and injured more, they didn't just rob banks but Mom and Pop gas stations and small grocery stores, how about some respect for the people they killed and all the families who had to live with that.
I think what he is referring to is I didn't sit there and degrade the graves. I also thru some people in there that had to do with the story that weren't the criminals. I am simply telling the story. A story that I am not done with. A story that has many locations and people involved. I will be visiting other locations. Other graves. Graves other law enforcement. Graves of other victims. So no matter who it is I will still show respect. I'm in cemeteries and yes they are criminals but there are other people in the cemetery who are not.
@@RhettyforHistory That's exactly what I meant. Also, graves are one of the last physical connections that the dead have. It's mostly meant for the living family and love ones of the deceased, as a neutral and peaceful memory. Again, you did a very good job with your video.
My cousin was Frank Hamer called out of retirement along with other officers that helped set up the ambush on Bonnie and Clyde.
Yes he and Maney Gault were both called out of retirement. I'll have more on this story coming up in a couple weeks.
You did a good job👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you Larry!
We really enjoyed your vid. Came looking for documentaries after watching The Highway Men. You give some interesting comments and information. And what a glorious beard you have btw lol.
Thank you Natalie. I appreciate you watching as well as the kind words on the beard.😁 I have not seen The Highwaymen yet. I am excited about it though. It's supposed to set everything straight and be told more accurately.
Me too lol. My Mama was always intrigued by their "love story" Wish she had been here to see The Highwaymen, it would have changed her mind. Mama thought they were modern day Robin Hoods. I believe they were cold blooded killers that got what they deserved. We need lawmen like Frank Hamer these days.
The press at the time and many in the general public at the time made them out to be something they were not. We have to remember this was amidst a great depression. People wanted to believe in something good, something better and something getting back at banks etc who brought them down. But the reality was much different. They often robbed mom and pop stores. People who were struggling themselves. As we all know Hollywood as well as recording artists have added their glamor to the love store. I think Bonnie was just looking for a way out of where she was and had a history of making poor choices. She had her husbands name tattooed on her thigh and still wore his wedding ring the whole time she was with Clyde. I believe that if she had the opportunity to have something better than Clyde she would have taken it.
Just watched Highway Men also , very good worth the time.
I'm glad they made it happen!
True Story My Grandmother Gertrude Anglin, My Mother's Mother Was Walking home as a Teenager ,Bonnie And Clyde Stopped And gave her a ride Home My Grandmother Told Me as A child I still remember !~!~Her Family History Goes Back To the Civil war Major Mooney Confederate Side !~!~ I Have A Book On it Doctor in Belle Starr Country !~!~ Written By the Grandson ,Charles Mooney This is Fascinating Thank You For the Video !~!~
Bonnie and Clyde stayed with my grandpa and grandma. For a couple of weeks in Sanger Texas. Grandpa told me that they were good people. Never did or tried to do anything to them. He said that he told them that they were welcome at his house anytime
He's lucky. They robbed from individuals and mom and pop places more than they ever did from banks.
Nice documentary. And man, what an epic beard.
Thank you! This one took some work! The beard, not so much! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
RhettyforFun that is a truly wonderful beard! Kudos to you! Great video....regards from Australia 🇦🇺👍🏼
Thank you. I appreciate you watching!
RhettyforFun 👍🏼🇦🇺🇺🇸
I scrolled through the comments to see if anyone else commented on what a great beard. Very informative, with a nice tone of voice...Great video, thanks for sharing!
I have also become more interested in this subject from viewing the recent film Highway Men. Thanks for your short film because it shows the actual places.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching and commenting. It's an interesting time in history and I'm glad things have changed for the better.
Hi Rhett, I had already seen the Bonnie and Clyde documentary, I have a fascination with mobsters and gangsters, I have a huge book about them. It tell about everyone from Al Capone to the birdman of Alcatraz, so when I saw your video I was inclined to watch it, so thank you for sharing this,(I have no interest in being a gangster 😂) I just like reading about them 🤗
I'm the same way. They are interesting to learn about as I want to know why they did it. But I also like to know did they change the way we handle anything? Bonnie and Clyde change the way we handle things on a local, state and federal level police wise. Thanks for watching Carole.
@@RhettyforHistory you're welcome Rhett! 🤗
You got a sub here I just wish people would enjoy the video instead of claiming to be related to Bonnie and Clyde in some way or another without actual proof that's just my 2 cents keep up the video's bro
Thank you for watching and subscribing. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
This is very nicely done 👍🏼. Interesting and lots of interesting facts and history. Very appreciated from England 🏴
Thank you Laois! I appreciate you watching!
Its changed a lot since then. Yes the popo is still avoided.
But a shoot out is going to be avoided at all cost,,, most of the time.
That depends on whom you are! And its not like Hollywood makes it up to be.
Try cold, wet, lonesome, an hungry for days, it ain't no walk in the park.
They chose that life and had to deal with the consequences. It certainly was not worth how they had to live on the run and cramped in a car. Any time they wanted to try and settle down they couldn't.
Very informative, I actually walked into Dallas Cemetery that been locked all my life (by a fense) and then one day passing a new gate installation left the grounds open (unsecure) so I took the opportunity thinking Bonnie was in there too, since real information wasn't known to me at the time. (Growing up, I herd Bonnie and Clyde are burried there fr preteen peers) but it always looked secured passing from a car, looking at it. That house is amazing to know after all this time on Singleton. I wonder, are there any other W. Dallas Oak Cliff Arcadia Park markers besides the school Bonnie went to, that history knows about, that are still around? Well thanks for this journey and effort you made.
There are a few other things and I do plan to do more with them at some point. You can only put so much in a video though. I appreciate you watching as well as commenting.
@@RhettyforHistory oh cool, I look forward to them and I understand their not easy researching traveling spare time editing etc. along with your private life.
Thanks📹🎬
That's true! They do take a lot of time, research, driving and money. They're fascinating characters though. And because of those criminals of the the 1930's it forced to have better equipped police forces. Imagine trying to chase after them with your farm truck that was barely running, a six shot revolver, no training and no back ups? Meanwhile they had a fast car and a huge amount of firepower. When you study history good or bad it all has an affect on how things change. Thanks again for watching.
I really enjoyed your video.
I have watched 3 movie versions and the history documentary about them and they all differ some but overall they they are similar. I grew up in southwest Missouri so as a kid back in the 50's I was always hearing about people who were related to the Parkers or Barrows but no idea if any were or wernt.
Thank you Bill. History often only remembers Bonnie and Clyde but there were many more people involved in the story. Even more than what I had in this video. At some point I'll dive into the others.
@@RhettyforHistory i know its her maiden name but technically she was Bonnie Thornton.right?
This was very interesting. Kept me hooked . Thank You for your time...Be Safe.
I'm glad you enjoyed and thank you for watching. I hope you stay safe as well.
If you are studying Bonnie, you will know she was not Bonnie Parker, but Bonnie Thornton. She was married to a small time gas station robber by the name of Roy Thornton who was in prison when Bonnie took up with Clyde Barrow, a friend of Roy.
Yes you are correct on that. She wore his wedding ring all the way to her death and had his name tattooed on her thigh. Her grave says Bonnie Parker and that's how the world knows her. I often wonder though if it said her married name would she have the same amount of visitors?
She was a slag
excellent video. Thank you so much for making it.
Thank you Dennis. I appreciate you watching!
Thanks for your great videos. I visited many of the same graves when I was in Texas in March 2018. I don't know if you realized it or not, but when you were visiting the tomb of Sheriff Decker in the Mausoleum, you were also near the tomb of Judge Sarah T. Hughes who was the Federal Judge who administered the Presidential Oath to Lyndon Johnson on Air Force One at Love Field following the Assassination of President Kennedy. Thanks again for you interesting Videos. Keep it up.
Yes I did. I recorded some stuff on her. I hope to put something together on people who were involved in the JFK story but have been forgotten about. She's one of them. She played a big part in getting the country in order. Nice to know someone else knew who she was. Sounds like you've been there. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@RhettyforHistory Yes I visited Sparkman-Hillcrest in March 2018 along with many of the other cemeteries that you visited and did a couple of short video which included many of the Kennedy assassination and Bonnie and Clyde figures. My videos are not as polished as your but I enjoy trying.
@@tombstonesandtravel8805 It's all a learning process and I still feel like like I'm trying to learn things. Best way to improve is to keep doing it. At least for me anyways.
“The Highway Men” brought me here. Thank you so much for a great research.
You're welcome and thank you for watching! I really liked the Highwaymen. I've even done a story on those two.
Born rebels, I never knew Bonnie and I share the same birth date.
That was an awesome video. Thank you!
Thank you!
Wow. Everyone has heard of Bonnie & Clyde. But look forward to hearing more of their history. Thanks again for a terrific video. I'm on a binge of your videos lol. Love all the research you have done , not only of Bonnie & Clyde but of the family & gang members. Fascinating. 🇦🇺🐨👍🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.
Thank you for binge watching the videos. I really try to bring something new and different to the stories even if they area subject matter that has been covered a lot.
I feel bad for these two young people because they have so much talent they didn't have to be criminals
I just came across ur channel and love ur voice and the way u tell the story/history. I could listen to u tell stories all night. Great job. Will watch many more of ur videos. Thank you!!
Welcome Jenni and I'm glad you found the channel! Thanks for watching as well as the kind words!
Good job! I enjoyed you and the subject matter... Thanks for the video! Keep em coming! 👍🏻🇺🇸
Thank you David! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Should be a lot ahead!
My daddy is a cousin of Clyde Borrow. Maybe the second or third cousin. I don't know much except what I've heard. From my grandmother. But she didn't tell too much. Did say that Bonnie and Clyde we're Outlaws and robbers. Thank you for sharing your information.
You're welcome Patricia. I appreciate you watching!
