  • Today we take a look into the abandoned home of Mr. and Mrs. Smith and their 4 children. Mr. SMITH and his 4 boys were all part of different branch’s of the army. Mr smith served many years and peacefully passed away in the 1980s inside of the home. The 4 boys had grown up and moved all across America to live their lives and serve in the army. Mrs smith lived the last 10 or so years alone in the house attending church and teaching in a local school. She had a love for trinkets and definitely a love for her family. In 1999 she suffered a heart attack in the home and before medics arrived she passed away. She was loved by so many in the community but even over time the town itself has started to die and not many more residents remain. So join us today and let’s see what’s inside.

    I may be crazy but when i see homes like this all i want to do is put it back together, pick up the trash that should not be inside the home, dust, clean and put everything back the way they had it when they were alive. I feel that is being very respectful.

    It's sad to think this woman devoted her life to raising her children to basically be forgotten. She died without her family around. The things she valued ignored by her family. Kids just don't care about family memories or heirlooms anymore. So many homes children grew up in or their parents passed away while living in are left to just decay. Memories left behind, family history lost.
    Many precious memories can be recalled in using or having a parents things. I value the things I still have of my parents. Making sure to pass along what history I know about them.

      No kidding! At first I thought well, I bet the kids just came and took anything of value and sentiment and left but as the video progressed it's apparent that they never even bothered. How sad that out of four children and an entire community that supposedly loved this woman not a single soul could be bothered to come take care of her possesions? Even to donate usable items to charity? So sad and such a waste.

    Sometimes when I see these videos of homes you guys explore it truly hurts my heart. It's sad seeing these places and things just forgotten to time, it really serves as a reminder of my own mortality. Will my "treasures" and life that I lived be left behind this way as well? This one for no real reason just made me sad, especially seeing all of the family photos still on display in such a loving manner.

    I can't believe that all the items haven't been taken by vandals in this abandoned home. Looks like someone in the family would have come back to settle their mother's estate. Based on what this man is telling, this lady seemed like a precious soul.

    • @gayzell850
      @gayzell850 8 месяцев назад

      The children may not be able to settle the estate yet. It may be going through probate still. Probate can take years, especially if the will is complex or contested by an heir/possible heir or if the legality of the will is questioned. Look at the examples of Howard Hughes and Anna Nicole Smith's husband's estates. Charles Dickon's novel "Bleak House" was based on an actual probate case that lasted a century and several generations of heirs before settlement. Until probate is finished and the assets distributed, they can't do anything with it.

      At least have someone else do it and then sell the property. I mean cars and everything there is like they never left. The kids should want to do something. It's just so heartless and sad for the parents who raised them. When my mom was dying, she gave everything to us before she died...it was so hard, but I'm glad she did it like that. Anyway, it is what it is.

    Heartbreaking - I feel such sadness for the Smiths who probably worked hard all their lives to gather things around them that they loved. They would be so hurt that their things are left to rot.
    God rest their souls.
    I remember clearing my parents house and though it was so heartbreaking it helped me come to terms with our loss by using the objects to relive parts of their lives.
    I think the worst thing is the abandoning of the photos. Perhaps they have no living offspring hard to know.

    Seeing videos like these are very sad. This just shows you that material things do not matter. Once you pass everything you have owned becomes nothing. They can sit for decades. Things you once thought you HAD to have, don't matter any more. Life is precious, cherish the ones you love while you still can. Great video, I like seeing things that have history to them and how things once were in the past. But, still sad at the same time.

It’s also interesting to see a house pre-internet/technology era (looking at how the tv’s were, etc.) RIP to this couple 🌹🌹 I hope one day some family member will come forward - if not one of the children, another family member such as a niece, nephew, cousin, old friend, church member, etc., anyone this couple knew. This house should not be left and forgotten 🙏🏾 Thank you for showing and giving this house the respect it deserves.

    *As a little old lady not many people take my advice but I still offer it from time to time. When you visit places like this, especially when the owners are dead, it is always good to say out loud that any being in this house is not allowed to attach to you, or to follow you when you leave. Also keep in mind that if you take anything from the site, even a little insignificant pebble from the driveway you stand the chance of an entity being attached to it. I'm not saying you would steal anything, I'm just saying sometimes things I cannot explain will attach themselves to people or follow them back to where they live especially if you take a souvenir with you when you leave.*

The dresser has evidence the previous over was a little girl from the stickers and such. I swear every time I go to the shop and go near that bedroom suite I can hear a little girls voice. I never can make out the words because they are real faint but I can actually hear a girls voice when there isn't children in the building. I think the mirror in the dresser is a portal.

    I cried during this entire video because so many of the items in this house reminded me of my mama who passed away in 1999 I saw several items in the living room area that mrs. Smith either purchased from a home interior sales person or someone else did and gifted them to her but I feel like she probably went to a friend's or neighbor's home interior party and purchase them herself. My momma had done of these same deco items. She wanted me to have her "rose" mirror as she called it and I have it hanging in my dining room now. Mrs. Smith had hers hanging in the living room behind one of the red lamps. Enjoyed your video just wish I could watch it without crying.

    One thing I don’t understand is how has this place not been taken by the county. Only because I recently learned that even though my country home and land is paid for, they can take it away from me if I don’t pay yearly taxes. I thought once it’s paid for, it’s yours. Period. Mind you, I’m an older lady who was married to someone that never allowed me to know about such matters as it was not my place.

    Wow! What a time capsule. A lot of the items in this home took me back to the 1970's. The red lamp shades that you liked, my mother had the same shades back in the late 70's except they were white and gold. My father recently passed and I was the lucky one who had to clean out his attic. Most of the items that was cleaned out were old files just like you found. In those days everyone saved everything, including old medical bills, pay stubs and what not. In those days they did not have computers to save our info to use as a reference.The old vintage jewelry was very big as well in the 1970's. It brought back memories of when I was a little girl going through my grandmothers jewelry box. A nice find, thanks for sharing.
