    Was so very excited to see this. I'm a Kuykendall, a descendant of Abraham Kuykendall (1719-1812). He was awarded 600 acres by the state of NC in the late 1780's for his service during the American Revolution in Flat Rock NC, not far from where I live today in the Mtns of WNC. Don't know much of my heritage but long to know more. Just wish I knew how the families tied together! Thanks so much for sharing this!

    The house and its contents are so well preserved that it would make sense to turn it into a museum. Thanks for sharing.

    Absolutely 100% a museum. I think the train ticket idea is a great idea. What a remarkable piece of history.

    Looks like "Edna" scratched into the stone, which was a common woman's name back in the day. That thing shown near the beginning with the 4 shallow impressions is an egg poacher, I believe. I have an old timey kitchen and use something similar to poach just one egg at a time. I sure vote for a museum, possibly with some living history. Was so very cool to have someone with you that has memories of the house.

      I agree. I think it's an egg steamer that you would lower into a pot.

    I would lean towards a museum. Please don’t make new holes in anything or fill in any wood as in the floor boards. Love to see how everyday life effected the house’s components. What a national treasure and I hope it survives another several hundred years. Thanks to the max for taking us along from WA state 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

    It's not mud that joined the stones to build the barn. It was lime mortar, and the reason that the walls were so thick is that the crew who constructed it were from the British isles,where they would have been building castles 🏰 and churches ⛪️. I am a Historian, and as soon as I saw the architecture, I guessed who built it. This is my first time watching your channel and I will subscribe! ❤

    Very interesting! So much history should be preserved for posterity. A house museum with a restaurant would be ideal.
    Kuykendall is originally a Dutch name (from the Netherlands) it used to be ‘van Kuykendal’, meaning that the name signifies a place or district in the country. Kuyken means chick 🐥 and -dal means valley.
    In the Netherlands it is now spelled as Kuikendal. On the internet you can find a family tree of Pieter Jacobsen van Kuykendall, born 1698, in Ulster New York. That area was previously Nieuw Nederland and the city of New York used to be Nieuw Amsterdam, before the English decided it was theirs. I very much enjoyed this video. Keep up the good work.

    One of your best shows to date and love the 1780 K House. I wish these comments would allow photos, but since it doesn’t I will try a description. I own a book called “Practical Housekeeping” dated 1883, one of the chapters called “Kitchen Luxuries” page 481, shows that cooking utensil as an egg poacher. The book shows some small individual, low cups that fit into the dipped sections. Can’t guarantee it but the one you showed today is very similar. Hopefully this will help 😊

    This reminds me of my uncle Rex’s house. It was wood but it was loaded with antiques from the 1700’s. He ended up allowing the Smithsonian to catalogue and use several pieces for their museum. Is this in West Virginia? That’s where my uncle Rex was.
    Edit: This channel was just recommended to me. My family has been in this country since the first ships for Europeans and Africans as well as the Native Americans. We’re the “Melungeon” of the Appalachia’s. If you want some more old places to explore, go to Logan or Wayne WV. I used to spend summers in a one room log home with my great great aunt. Zero modern amenities and I loved it!

    I used to live on Kuykendall Road in Cookeville, TN. I wonder if perhaps the person the road was named for is a relative, perhaps a descendant of Isaac's. It's not a common surname, so it might just be possible. Thank you for sharing this. I have tears in my eyes - the stories those walls could tell!

    Wow Todd, maybe one of your best videos yet. As far as for an old historical house an all of its belongings from so many years gone by. You just don't get to see many of these places anymore, especially it being in such great condition. It's in the right stages to be restored back to its former beauty. What an amazing homestead Todd. Such an amazing place. I'm sure you will find many unbelievable/amazing relics when you detect the grounds. It really does need to be brought back to its amazing glory for sure. Wish i had a couple million to give them to get started on it. Todd, another amazing video my friend. Have yourself an amazing weekend an we shall catch you on your next video. 😁👍👍

    Stunning! Absolutely breathtaking this house is basically in original state! So many artifacts contained within for eons too!
    It's been untouched, and any improvements should be carefully undertaken.
    Hopefully it will be kept out of the way & remote for its own protection.
    It's just so lovely and intact, it should have controlled access, which only a railway could do.
    I could spend all day there!
    (The name looks like "Edna" to me.)

It is in prestige condition and with the item's there, it add's to the time line of stories. What a great find...

    Watching this was a joy. I grew up in a 1790s house and currently live in an 1812 house in Vermont. I was thrilled to see all of the marvelous items that have withstood time. I hope very much that the owners are able to get a nice (tasteful, to go along with the house) train station with a place for coffee or light lunch, and restroom facilities. This would allow the house to be made into a museum with the least amount of “damage.” Unlike a B & B, which would require the installation of modern facilities to pass inspection.
    Thank you so much for taking the time to film and post this!

    The round rock found on the windowsill was not handmade. They find them in a river where for some reason a stone or rock sits where it “bubbles” and they begin to roll around being polished or worn as they turn. I saw some in Virginia that had been collected. I think maybe they are found where a water wheel dumps water in one spot or at the base of waterfalls.

For some reason, I have an affinity with West Virginia, even more so with all things Appalachian. Who knows, maybe an ancestor of mine went out there and it is in my genes! This house is amazing and all the artifacts left behind by inhabitants of years gone by and also, all your reactions of awe.

I must tell you though, I also collect very old books and if you guys don't get them out of the dryness of that home, they will be lost forever. Please see about pulling the important books out and have a little restoration done! (those are worth saving!!)...antique books can't be in this type of dryness and last. The other items can hang on but those important books can't. Get that little one out and the Washington one for sure. I have had to carefully do restoration work on many of mine to help them last. :) what a fun trip to travel on a train, and even better if it would stop there for a little tour! Tour guides should be in period clothing! fun!! thanks for sharing!

    Isaac Kuykendall is my 4th great grandfather and Nathaniel Kuykendall is my 5th great grandfather. Dan Waggoner, who owned the property and recently passed would not have wanted electricity, kitchen, bathrooms, etc added to the house. He was a stickler for authenticity and keeping the home as uniquely original as he could. It would be so very sad to see the house changed in those ways. A museum with day hours could work as long as electricity or public restrooms are not required. I do hope the current owners take this into consideration and do their best to preserve this rare untouched piece of history. Marsha Kuykendall Tomlin

The people who own it now seem to me to have good intentions with this place I won’t pitch a fit if they have to add plumbing and electricity in order for this place to survive

    I hope this kind Gentleman will see his dreams come true. It would be so very much worth it. I liked the idea of a train coming, dropping folks off, even if they could have a sleep over or two, have a wonderful meal and just spend the rest of the time looking at all of the treasures in there. I think it would take more then one day for a person like myself who likes to take their time slowly, not missing on single item to admire, take a photo. I personally would love to love at all the things in the linen cabinet, both trunks we got to see. What a wonderful magical place this would be to me. Thank you ever so much for showing us such a well preserved home from the 1700's era.

    I was in awe just watching this video. So much beloved history.
    My favorite part, was the little red photo album & Ms. Peters (Mt. Vernon) 1815 Bible.

    It would be great as a museum but I would also love to stay there too. Maybe they could do a combination of both or build little cabins for people to stay on the property which looks beautiful!! Thank you for sharing

    I'd love it to be a museum with a RUclips channel with unique finds of the catalogue of items. I imagine it would be impossible to display everything. God bless. Thanks for sharing this.

    Wow. That's a beautiful time capsule. I do hope their plans for it happen. It's alr easy a museum. The possibilities are endless. I don't know if it's possible but an interactive BnB would be amazing. People could rent it for several days to experience how the people lived back then. Cooking in the fireplace using candles and oil lamps and using the outdoor faculties. There isn't a lot of us old People left that remember having houses like that. But just having it as a museum for people to visit would be awesome. A living history site.

    Hello my friend. I think it’s amazing it should be a museum. I remember some of the things that were in my grandma house. Absolutely amazing. Stay safe my friend and say hello to the family for me.

    What a amazing house! People would love to tour that place! I wonder if they welcomed the railroad when it was built right beside their house?

    This was built by my 4th Great Grandfather Isaac Kuykendall along with his brother. It is just so amazingly beautiful. Thank you so much for creating this video and showcasing the timeless construction and all the other historical items and buildings.

    Wow! Thanks for the tour! Loved seeing this and would love to see it live. Please cover those painting and things with a dark heavy material to keep out the UV light. Those thin white cloths won't. I get my back tanned everytime I go swimming with a cotton t-shirt over my swimsuit.

    I stumbled upon your channel by accident as I love anything that has to do with Appalachia. This old house has been lovingly preserved. Though it will take an army of volunteers to restore the property and other buildings, it Can be done! --I was a volunteer at an old Manor House in N.E. Ohio, built in 1834, for numerous years until the pandemic hit and we fell into hard times and with other under handed things that went on, eventually lost the Manor. While devastating, in the time that we had the Manor, were able to save her from falling down, and her Carriage House as well.
    This one video has prompted me to subscribe. Thank-you for gaining access to this old beauty and being permitted to film it. Do they have a Foundation where folks can support it financially? I certainly would like to contribute to her further preservation Thank-you!
