It seriously blows my mind how much that headstone was becoming one with that tree! Like it was truly growing around it between the base, you can see the perfect edge where the base was sitting as the tree grew & then the headstone wasn't just leaning on the tree but the tree was growing to form a spot for the headstone & who knows maybe would have grown around the corner of the headstone that was resting on the tree trunk. So so cool! But very glad you gave new life to the tree and headstone by giving them space
My family has been in Wright county since the mid to late 1800’s. It sounds like she may have lived in or near St.Michael. Started as a primarily German farming community. My maternal grandmother was raised there❤strange to think my ancestors may have known her and her family
Hey 👋! I just mentioned you on a different RUclips channel!! “Grave Visitations” was looking for what to do about a grave found in Alabama which didn’t have its concrete cover anymore & the casket was right there at surface!! Btw, you are Amazing!! You are not only a stone cleaner!! I hope Santa brings you a grinder! ❤❤. ✌🏼💜🎄
Saving another stone! The work you do is so important and you always take such care. We all appreciate you! Merry Christmas! Or Happy Holidays if celebrate something different. 🎄
I always see this weird graveyard driving down a street close to my house in NJ. It's located at 41°05'15.5"N 74°10'21.4"W. about 20-30ft into the woods. Looks like it could use help. I saw you on Diresta's channel and I follow you now. Love your work.
Hey man I’m a window tinter and I used to use a pump sprayer like you have now I use this spray system that automatically pressurizes the tank maybe it would help when you’re cleaning the headstones it’s called tru spray systems.
Suggestion: Do you think a small handheld battery-powered vacuum would help with the dirty and debris removal? They sell them for cars detailing. Also, could you show an example of what this would look like at 10:45? How would you encase it in concrete at an angle?
I honestly wonder how healthy that tree was, or is now. It could have been rotting away next to the stone, especially if some of the branches above were already dead or dying.
You should leave some laminated card written in pencil or something that won't weather, but include your channel, this video, something so those visiting can gain this wealth of information and history as well as your work. ❤
Well, I looked into this matter of Hannah's date of death, where you concluded it was sometime in 1885. However, I located a death record for one Clara A. Ramthun in Broomall, Delaware, Pennsylvania on October 6, 1964. Clara gave her date of birth as April 28, 1886 in Woodland Township, Wright County, Minnesota. Father Frederick Klucas and mother's maiden name as Hannah Krause. You mentioned a tombstone next to Hannah's with an 1886 date, but I'm uncertain what you meant by this. If it was Hannah's, then we can conclude Hannah died sometime between April 28, 1886 and Dec 31, 1886. Perhaps she died in childbirth - but certainly no earlier than Clara's DOB, and of course after your 1885 conclusion. It appears Fred's 2nd wife died soon after his second marriage because Fred's Find a Grave lists Fredricka Kanehl Klucas as his THIRD wife, married Sept. 18, 1889 in Wright County, Minn., and had one son with her, Fred, Jr.
Imagine researching your genealogy and coming upon your family grave like this... Finding someone cared.
What a blessing.
God bless ❤😊❤
Thanks for your dedication to this task 😊

You do such a great job all the time. Bless you for your preservation ❤
Don't forget, marble dust is hazardous for your lungs.
Good thing you are a strong guy. I love your channel. The stories are fascinating. Thank you.

You should team up with geneavlogger for some family history digging to go along with actual digging
Awesome work ad must respect ✊🤲💯
Very interesting video and hard work, thanks for sharing.
Good stuff!
Good job.. 👍
Can you link the product that you painted on the stone? Waterlast or something like that?

Why didn’t you fill in the break area of the upper and lower headstone with filler?
Tree says... Ahhhhhh.... 🌳😚

What would it cost to have a new headstone made like the original
GOOD MAN
Can you show the products that you use or at least email the products. I enjoy your videos keep up the good work
Cut the root and tree down, lol 😅

And lead is dangerous as well.
Do you need permission to work on random gravestones. 😮
Yes you do. Permission is always required.
