Grave Under A House Leads Us To Lost Plantation Ruins! Carter Plantation Jimmy Carter's Great Uncle
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 мар 2024
- Join us on an unforgettable journey into the heart of Georgia's history as Joy, Cecil, Dan, and I explore the enigmatic grounds of the Jesse Carter Plantation in Talbot County. This episode of Adventures into History takes us through a portal to the past, beginning with the remarkable Carter Plantation Cemetery. Our exploration is immediately captivated by a rare historical gem-a standing grave house dating back to 1899-1900. This unique structure, one of the few remaining intact in Talbot County, offers a rare glimpse into past burial customs and serves as a poignant reminder of the individuals it commemorates.
The adventure doesn't stop at the cemetery; the ruins of the old Carter Plantation house await, whispering stories of a bygone era. Although the house itself has long since vanished, the ruins and footprint are remarkably well-preserved, with rock and brick chimneys standing as silent sentinels over a landscape scattered with artifacts. Each fragment tells a story, each piece a chapter in the plantation's history.
Delving deeper into the woods, Dan and I uncover the remnants of several cabins, the dwellings of those who were once enslaved on the plantation. These ruins are among the best-preserved vestiges of a plantation we've encountered, offering a haunting yet invaluable insight into the lives of those who lived and labored there.
Adding an extra layer of historical significance, we discover that this site is connected to President Jimmy Carter, as it is the final resting place of his 3rd great uncle. This connection to an esteemed figure in American history adds a profound depth to our exploration, linking the past directly to the present.
Joy, a historian and fan-favorite semi-regular guest on Adventures into History, joins us once again, lending her expertise and passion for history to our exploration. Together, we traverse this sacred ground, piecing together the stories of those who walked before us.
This episode is more than just a journey through a historical site; it's a tribute to the lives of those who shaped our past, a reflection on the complexity of history, and an exploration of the ties that bind us to our ancestors. Join us as we uncover the secrets of the Jesse Carter Plantation, on Adventures into History.

Wow!!? Amazing find!
Really appreciate the Carter family connection to President Carter, such a pleasant reflection upon a man with genuine grace, Authentic in his character, his vision, and his post Whitehouse works.
President Jimmy and Rosalyn Carter may have served in a messy time, following Watergate, and had to deal with attitudes and energies of the Right that continue to be reflected through the News Media "with no change save the subjects they're applied to", however, without support, necessary to affect new legislation , improved scenarios, evolved Social, Economic, and Political experiences, his work and character still managed to advance the Public's Consciousness, and when one pauses to reflect upon or learn of the man and his legacy, he shines brighter than all his opponents and holds the respect of all of his modern day constichuents.
He is a man his family, extended family, and home State of Georgia can hold admiration and genuine pride in, with reason.
Integrity, ethics, character, the best interest of the nation, are traits and choices that never fade from a current value. However, they seem to have faded from list of required qualifications held by many in this country and particularly in the South.
I've yet to fully discern how this could happen, although it is obvious that the "24hr Cable Opinion News Media" enjoys their part in fostering the subject and the Power and Profits they gain as a result.
The idea of holding the Nation's interest above that of one's group affiliation seems to be of little concern. There's the "Ego Mind" in this concept, and it is the subject that will be realized in order for a "common shared value" to reemerge. That is what holds a Nation in it's Higher place, and what protects it from its first, be they an individual, group, or another Country.
It is not necessary to agree on a/all subject for mutual respect, friendship, communication , or cooperation to exist, but it does require a mutual respect and common goal/purpose.
That is very much a statement that reflects the nature and character of President Jimmy Carter.
(I remain a supporter of our Constitution andvI support those whom reflect "Higher Minded aka Mature Minded" Thoughts in their behaviors and vision. I do not support Corporatism, it is not a generic replacement for Capitalism.)
My shared thoughts in this comment are Discernment rather than Judgemental.
I really appreciate this video, the History, and look forward to more. Thanks to all involved .

BTW, tell Dan, I'll buy you guys Coffee and a piece of pie, if he can locate a Photo, sketch, the lineage branch to President Carter, and more details on "the Carter Plantation"
I have a great deal of fondness and respect for President Carter and his wife, 1st Lady Rosalyn Carter. 🇺🇲
Really enjoyed this!

I WOULD LOVE TO GET WITH YALL OR SPEAK TO YALL!! I WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE TO GO OUT HERE AND SEE THIS! I HAD NO CLUE THAT WAS THERE! I AM A COUSIN OF THE CARTER FAMILY!
My intention is not to embarress any one. The reason I enjoy your site so much is that every one is very well spoken and so very professional in your knowledge and delivery without being bragging and arrogant. This is truly how I feel. God bless you all.
I appreciate that!!
Means a lot!
I agree!!
And, of course, y'all's soft-spoken Georgian accent is most appropriate for the narration of these topics. It all comes together so organically, thus perfectly. Remembering these places and people is so important. They worked so hard every day. But for them go we.
This is my favorite channel as well mainly for the reasons you mentioned above ❤️
Thanks Cecil and Joy and Dan.
These epitaphs are great because they come straight from the Bible. These folks had saving faith, as exemplifid by what they had put on their markers. Christians know that death is merely a change of address from here to the presence of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Believers will have a grand reunion. Have a wonderful Easter Sunday, folks, knowing the forgiveness offered at the Cross and eternal life provided by the empty tomb!
Thank you for that well written reminder! God Bless!
Beautifully written! ✝️
Yet they still owned slaves.
@@ofeliavaldesjohnson2897 It's difficult to understand how people have reconciled slavery in their beliefs yet they have for millenia and continue to do so in Africa and Asia. A form of denial / self deception.
@@ofeliavaldesjohnson2897 EXACTLY...AT LEAST JIMMY GOT IT RIGHT
Thanks to everyone, but especially to Cecil for having the knack of being able to find these incredible old cemeteries and the evidence of the old homesites! Well done!!❤
Oh WOW! I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO GET IN TOUCH WITH JOY, CECIL, AND DAN!! I AM ACTUALLY A COUSIN OF JIMMY CARTER! Was able to attend a CARTER FAMILY REUNION in PLAINS years ago! Was REALLY AWSOME TO SEE EVERYONE THAT I AM RELATED TO DOWN THE LINE! I cant believe yall talked about LITTLE BERRRY! HIS NAME ALWAYS STUCK IN MY HEAD! LOUISIANA VIRGINIA WAS ANOTHER NAME I LOVED!! IT WOULD BE SOOOO AMAZING TO BE ABLE TO GO AND SEE THIS!!
Thank you Cecil for all the work you put into finding cemeteries. You really enjoy your work. Dan and Robert thank you as well. You make it so interesting to watch.
Having always been interested in my genealogy, I cannot believe that Jimmy Carter's family has not fixed that cemetery up so that other generations can come back there and see the old folks
Some care to the shelter at sometime. Maybe its best to leave it as is out of respect for the original plantation grounds.
This one certainly has many remnants of life as it was, a map to the past. A sadness, the loss, although not my own is plainly written among the leaves and flowers. Most especially the shelter over the grave the loneliness prevails, the passing of time seen in all cemeteries and a gentle tug on the heart as you read the epitaphs. Enjoyed all the information and details! Thank you. 👍👍❣❣
A intresting video of the carter family the grave house would be called a canopy grave most are made of marble or sandstone in the uk 🇬🇧 thanks to dan and Cecil and joy and you Robert 😊all the best Andrew south wales uk 👌 👍 👏 😀 🇬🇧
Thanks Andrew!
These old abandoned cemeteries and home sites seem sad and lonely but there is a kind of peace here that cannot be found in towns. I hope that this site is left intact and not disturbed or logged.
@12:50, J. Neal Carter, died exactly 166 years ago today, 3/31/1858. 40 years old. Mind blowing to think that family gathered in that cemetery all that time ago to mourn the loss of another family member before his time.
Wow!
Robert, Joy, Cecil and Dan,
Thank you all for sharing these lonesome woods plantation ruins
You commented on the plants that continue to flourish many decades after their original plantings.
They are a testament to , most likely, the woman who toiled alongside their husbands and made their
dwellings real homes.
Cheers,
Rik Spector
Houses might fall, but the flowers still grow!! That is very cool! Thank you all for this video!!
Incredible tht Berry died 21 years before the Civil War started. It gives some perspective on how far we are from his death.
I really enjoyed this. Fascinating to hear the stories and see the sites where they lived, especially when these places were connected to one of our presidents. Thank you to Cecil and Dan for finding the cemetery, and to Joy for the story of he4r connection. And thank you, Robert, for allowing us too see history. Happy Easter to you all.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
I find your videos so interesting and I’m watching all the way from Southern AZ. I grew up and did all my schooling in VA, however, the majority of my history on my dad’s side originates in Georgia and as a kid I was always down there in the summer. My grandparents are buried there as well as several sets of great, 2nd, and 3rd great grandparents and a plethora of other relatives. Each time you come across a Confederate grave in your videos, especially if they served in the 2nd GA and 44th GA I get excited because my 2nd Great Grandfather and his older brother served in those Regiments (MVB Estes and Col. John B Estes). I’m also related to Jimmy Carter through my 5th Great Grandfather Thomas Ansley Sr. (He is also a descendent of Thomas Ansley Sr.). There is the Rock House near present day Thomson, GA that Thomas Ansley Sr. built circa 1785. My dad told me that it was restored near the time Jimmy Carter was in office. They use to have Ansley family reunions on the site of Thomas Ansley Sr.’s Rock House and my Aunt actually was able to meet Jimmy Carter at one of them before she passed. I don’t think there are any more reunions there as the older Ansley generations that held them have passed on. I visited that house myself in 2019 before Covid hit. (I have a short video of it on my channel). Your videos are wonderful to watch and they are teaching me more about Georgia history! I hope to take a trip to Georgia sometime in the future to do some exploring myself.
Hello from southern Nevada. I too have southern roots.
Dan is 100% right that the Victorian world viewed graveyards as an extension of the home as the British of that era would have daytrips to the graves of their relatives. They'd even bring picnics lol.
I never knew that. I've seen people out in California bring chairs and have picnics on their lunch breaks & others sitting there eating and speaking to their deceased loved ones. I thought it was a bit odd. I sit & talk to my dad at his grave but have never thought of having a picnic. That's neat. Learned something new.
@@goldnglo570interesting . California was indeed once visited by Russians . Russians do it all the time .
Always in South in N. & S. Eastern Ga we always called what you call daffodils, we called them jonquils as jonquils have always been more predominate in the warmer southern regions of USA & daffodils are more common in northern regions. Farm I grew up on had a huge 6 stall barn with 2 huge bay openings, one facing east connected to the pasture & the other south you could back a wagon into, w/huge hay loft w/long shed for wagons, a blacksmith shop, corn crib, smokehouse, chicken house, carriage house, cellar underneath house for storing can goods, huge fig tree, pecan & walnut trees, apple, pear & peach trees, grape & muscadine vines you cld walk under, sawmills. cotton, corn, oat fields, pasture, many hogs & my grandfather born in 1884 farmed all his life with horses. Did not get electricity until 1934 on farm. Remember taking cotton to the gin & corn to be ground into corn mill etc. He passed in1973 & his children sold off the homestead. Now it occupies a subdivision, huge Church, gas station, condos, apt house, strip mall, doctors/lawyer offices, with no trace of what beauty there was along with all the wonderful memories of 6 kids & a grandkid raised on the farm.
I grew up outside of Atlanta many years ago, and my dear sainted mother always called them jonquils...me too, At one time, Smyrna, GA. (near where the Braves stadium is located) was called 'The Jonquil City".
Absolutely smashed the genre with this one Robert and crew! Well paced, engaging and informative, this is Sidestep at the top of its game. Thank you, so much. This is the content keeps me coming back.
Thank you!! That’s an awesome review!!
I totally agree. I can't get out and trek around in the woods and hills anymore. So I sure enjoy seeing better legs and backs doing it. 😊
Robert, I'd dare say that someone in that family somewhere has some old pictures of that house and maybe even the surrounding area. Auburn University may even have some old photos that were given to them along with the property. Might be worth a phone call to find out.
Beautiful plantation site and cemetery ❤❤
Robert love your videos and enjoy watching them. May the lord bless and protect you Robert and Dan and guest and bringing out the past history
Fascinating! This place is so quiet now. I'm sure it was once bustling with activity.
Amazing finds. I hope some day that these cemeteries can be cleared properly so that they last and ancestors can see their loved ones resting place.
I remember my grandmother still used a smoothing iron in the late 50s early/mid 60s.
Mine too. She also used them for "Door stops", must have been 4 or 5 around the house in use.
I was a rowdy kid. My punishment was to iron everything Mom could wrinkle. The iron was set on the gas stove to heat and used until it cooled and then reheated to keep going. I remember that if I was still sassy, Mom would crumple up more linens. 😂we grew up sleeping on those ironed sheets! She finally gave up and we got an electric iron that was really heavy. I’m not going to lie, I’m still rowdy at 65! 😂😂😂❤❤❤The only thing I learned from it was I’m never ironing again. 😊
Remarkable site. There aren’t many left that are so undisturbed. The old cemetery and grave house are fascinating, too. Beautiful place full of history. Thank you for taking us along!
The young lady in the "house" was the wife of David Lewis Earnest, a professor at the State Normal School in Athens - their house was a short distance away on Cobb Street (moved in 1980s when the hospital was expanded). According to her obituary in the Athens Banner Herald on Nov. 15, 1899, p1 (DLG), she had been sick with "the grip" (an early name for a flu-like disease), but was thought to be improving. Her death was a shock to Dr. Earnest and the whole community. The funeral was held at their home in Athens because Dr. Earest was also ill, then her body was taken to Talbot County for burial near her parents. They had a young daughter. She & David Earnest married Oct 27, 1897 in Talbot Co., GA, as his first wife.
Thank you for the info!
Interesting! In German-speaking countries there is the term "Grippe". A serious infectious disease against which you can still protect yourself with a "Grippeimpfung".
About 1965 we used mock orange branches and painted them white for Easter gumdrop trees. We got them from great uncle’s farm
That would be a good place to probe and look for privys and find old bottles
The history in those privy’s would be fascinating and would likely add a tremendous amount of information about the plantation and it’s residents over the years. Historically speaking priceless!
For sure
@@legacyXplore Being a plantation house site they were probably well off , could be some really nice stuff there
Most people are put off by the thought of excavating a privy. But I was able to help excavated an old dump from before the town I grew up in became a coal boom town. The story was the it was a route for wagon trains going west. There were some bottles that were so old that exposing them to air would make them shatter. My family was selling the items to antique dealers for years. We finally got down to a layer that was not salvageable and I remember being so disappointed because I loved touching the past like that. The items excavated from very old privies are interesting. I like to think that I would have made a good archeologist had I not been married and a Mom so young. I am always watching these kinds of programs to feel part of the history of the times. ❤
What you guys found and declared to be a well is in my guesstimation the remains of an outhouse. Behind the house and out of sight, in a close proximity to the house but far enough away that there would be no odors emanating from it detectable from the perimeter of the house. Of all the properties that I have visited that had wells on them, they were located a rather close distance to the backdoor or in most instances right beside the backdoor. I once lived in a house that the well was on the back porch directly beside the backdoor. I would say that most likely water was piped inside of the house from the spring using a hand pump.
That's fascinating history ! Very well made graves. Love the grave house! I'm amazed how much knowledge Mr.Dan can recite at any given moment! Robert, i want to Thank you for starting this channel! I have learned so much over the years . I've met a lot of different characters through you too . I enjoy all of it ! Thanks !
Cecil rocks! Mr. Dan is such a beacon of knowledge. Robert, this channel is so interesting. Thank you all for your efforts.
This is a tragic story. I’m glad his mom is beside him in the cemetery and not his dad.
Robert , yall sure make some great videos of the past. Thank You for sharing with all of us.
Thank you!
This was very interesting, must have been one of the most incredible plantations. Thank you 🎉
Excellent step back in time. Love your explanations and respect you all have for the past.
I love old family histories even if they aren’t mine. I create a picture in my mind of what they looked like by following you guys videos and explanations of where roads, terraces, fallen chimneys are seen. I love the fact that families had their own cemeteries on their property to lay loved ones to rest.
Fantastic video Robert. Thank you Cecil for finding this wonderful place. Appreciate all the history from Dan and Joy. Robert, you work so hard documenting, editing and brining us these videos. Love this great team and the interesting and fascinating history.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Robert, it is so good to see you feeling better! Watch you everyday. Always interested to see what you and your friends are up to. It is always interesting and informative. I have learned so much from you all. Take care.
Robert, another great video as usual. God bless.
Thank you!
Excellent job.
I'm surprised those flowers are blooming! They have been there for so long and are so thick, seems like they would have crowded theirselves out! Absolutely gorgeous!
Robert another great video as usual God bless. I love history
It amazes me how y'all can see the exact layout of an old plantation! Over here just shaking my head in amazement! Thank you for sharing!❤❤❤
Wow! What an extraordinary place and how fortunate it is untouched!! It should be excavated by an archeological study and document all the finds. It is soooo interesting! I would LOVE to see the history underground. Wonderful work Cecil, Dan and Robert. Thank you guys!
So interesting! So much history!
This is such an amazing find, and the history of the families that made it their homes and burial grounds around them. Thank you all for sharing it with us.🙂
Our pleasure!
This is Awesome! Thank you all! Hi Joy! 😊👋 It's been a while since we seen you!
❤❤❤❤ ( hearts to you all )
Do you know if the Carter family knows about this? Truly an amazing treasure for them! 👍 for everyone actually!
Not sure
Very interesting. Thank all of you
You are very well spoken telling these stories. Love hearing them .The history of these people. I like looking at the old cemeteries and stones. ❤, keep up the good work
Thank you so much for sharing this. I have never seen anything like this before ❤
I have a set of forth great grandparents, in Newton Co., they both have a shed like built over their two graves, and they are real Italian marble. I love this channel, and love they areas that you all cover. I will be working on fixing up their graves as it is around an acre, as well I will be working on the enslaved cemetery on the other half that I had finally found. Thank you for being so informative, love this channel!
What a very, very cool find Robert! Love this video! Much thanks to Cecil for all his hard work finding the graves and brushing them so we could view them easily, as well as to Dan and Joy for their knowledge of the area and the history behind it! I hope that Auburn or the Carter family continue to keep this place as a reference point in history. I could feel the working plantation around you as you walked through it and believe that those who lived in this plantation, owners, slaves and those who came after the war, were very happy that you visited and thought so highly of their endeavors. I certainly do!
I so love your videos & your dedicated fellow enthusiast Dan Cecil Joy & of course yourself. The knowledge they have is fascinating. I wonder if The existing CARTER family watch your videos as you mention their descendants quiet often. Regards Lynne Victoria Australia 🇦🇺🐨👋🏻♥️💜💙❤️
Those flowers are amazing. How beautiful.
What a nice explore! I’ve visited a lot of old forgotten cemeteries but never have I seen one with an enclosed gazebo like structure over it. It was fun seeing the traces of the old structures. Thanks for taking us along!
I've been told those open walled structures were traditional Creek Indian burial methods. I know of a couple of others near there. They could indicate the buried person had Creek Indian ancestry.
This one is a grave house of someone of European ancestry, but the Creek did use grave houses too, just different from this
History is so amazing. What is more amazing is finding old plantations or home places of early settlers and their lost and forgotten cemeteries. I watch intently to see if you may find some of my ancestors. They were scattered all over Georgia in the early 1800s also. In my area of Georgia in the northeast you see a pattern of names that standout from each of the cemeteries I've visited and you even find roads named after them. Soon I hope to head towards Griffin, GA and then to Effingham County. I'm tracking the Futral/Futrell family. Keep up the great work Robert, Dan, Cecil, and Joy.
Wonderful place of peace and tranquility. I was surprised to see Daffodils and the white flowers just flowering away in a place that seems like there is only trees and more trees. Thanks to you all.
Never knew there was such a thing as a grave house. Very cool!👍🏻☺️
I’m just delighted to see a grave house. It shall be added to my Grave Shelter playlist. And I shall be sharing your video with a friend who loves grave houses too! ❤
💜💜💜
What would the impact of the war have had on these sites?---In North Dakota, that hunk of metal would have been called a 'sad iron', because of the hard work it took to use those. I have one from my paternal Great Grandmother, minus the handle which would have been used to transfer from the cooling iron to the next iron being heated on the stove.---Fascinating about sealing foods in with lard. (My maternal Grandmother made a traditional cookie one year when I took my little kids to North Dakota for the holiday, pee-yuu, that lard stinks. She lost her sniffer a long time ago so didn't pay attention until I sounded off! "Yah, I kinda remember it didn't smell too good"!)---Others might know those white flowers as 'snow drops'!
I’m not sure, some houses and farms were raided when the Union Army came through, others weren’t
I knew Gunby Jordan. I was just a kid but my dad who knew him well took me out to a cabin/house of his and there was a small lake that he had stocked full of fish. He gave me some fish food and told me to go out on the dock and throw it in the lake. More fish came up to the dock then I have ever seen in my life outside of a grocery store. I would mention my Dad's name, the fellow in the orange vest might know it. We all left Columbus and moved to Atlanta back in 1980.
Dan has such a great memory. I have genealogy notebooks full of dates and people but if anyone asks me about someone I need to get the book out. Interesting video.
I really enjoyed this video. It is soaked in history…the past and the present. Thank you Dan Robert Cecil and Joy. Wish someone would come and snip all those baby trees off and clean the cemetery up a bit since there is past history of presidents family here.
There is a book by.. Jeremy Broousard, I believe spelled correctly, he's wrote about over 200 yrs of them going back that far, and the meaning. It's a lovely little structure and lot history y'all have talked about.. thanks for sharing..The book is titled..Gravehouse Legends..
Thank you Cecil, Dan..this was a wonderful walk thru..so enjoyed!!!!
💞
I always enjoy your videos. They truly show you and your friends interest in keeping history alive in your neck of the woods.
❤❤❤❤
i love that contuation of a home from home x
I do enjoy listening to Dan rattle off family connections. I'm convinced that one of these days, I'll hear a personal connection, probably on my step daddy's side. His folk are down in Stewart County. Mine are around Troup, Bibb, and Walton Counties. One day 🩷
My great grandmother born in 1882 used lard when canning things. It made everything so much better imo
Love to know if there was any pictorial drawing or a picture of the place
You guys are a wealth of knowledge. It's fascinating hearing the history of other countries. Thank you for doing this for us. Kate from OZ.
Even though I live in North Carolina I love to watch your videos. I love to visit old cemetery's. I try to imagine what kind of folks they were in days gone by. I enjoy Dan's knowledge of the history of most of the places yawl find. The name of those flowers you showed at the end of this video is called Snow Bells. My Grandmaw Long who was born in 1882 and she always grew them. In fact they still come up and bloom where I live today at their old home place. I have seen them come up and bloom in the snow, hence the name I reckon, lol. I get on RUclips everyday to see if yawl have put any videos on. I miss you and the other Robert working together.
Here in Oklahoma I have heard them called Bells of Ireland. I have some in my yard.
@@dixie3086 Sweetie I am 78 yrs old and here in The South we grew up calling them Snow Bells and that is the real name for them. I am not trying to be smart or anything like that but you can Goggle "Snow Bell Flowers" and their picture will pop up. God bless and Happy Resurrection Day to you and yours.
@@sharynestridge No offense taken. And I'm 70 years old. My Mom always called them Bells of Ireland and that's where I got it. But here in Oklahoma we have different names for things. I think it's just a location thing.
So very interesting. I was trying to picture everything as you described.what you found. Thank you everyone
So glad!
Thank you! What a fun adventure!
The mock orange reminds me of the Crown of Thorns on Jesus's head. Very, very interesting video and stories. Thank you for sharing. Y'all have a safe and blessed Easter 😊
My mind goes wild trying to picture what this magnificient plantation would have looked like back then.
Well praise the Lord I know i was born 200 years too late. I love Lard. I love to can. The food was so good Canned like that. Thank you for this video as i really appreciate your efforts. I love epitaphs. Just love them. My grandparents aren't around to can like that but Lard does make a difference. Love your videos. Thank you
That was a good poke around.🌷🌷🌷🌷💕💕💕
This is so cool. I am 73 and lived in Arkansas as a kid and thru high school. Then, I spent 4 years in Arlington, Virginia, and have been in SW Missouri since 1980. I have been in many old cemeteries but can't remember ever seeing a grave house. Wow! And the first name Littleberry isn't a name I remember seeing before, either. This is a very interesting video, guys!!❤
Dagum if that ain't truly amazing. Everyone and everything gone save a few old rusty artifacts and those beautiful flowers that grace that wonderful spot in the world year after year even when no one is there to see them ❤
This was very interesting. To bad there was no photos of the plantation house some where. Thank you again Joy, Dan, Cecil,and Robert
Check old newspapers from the era for the era may aid in that or some long lost Carter relative may have historic photos. It would be great if one could be found.
Maybe in the Rockaway book they are always referring to.
@@JohnMarciaShackelford thank you I couldn't remember the name of it. Georgia has a lot of history
thanks for sharing info and history folks👏🧐
Questions - are there no cemetery associations in Talbot Co that are responsible for the care of older cemeteries that no longer have ties to a church or family? Why doesn't the county, city, or townships take care of them. This is sad & y'all have been too so many in this shape.
I found this episode quite interesting as my family married into a Carter family around Americus & Thomaston areas. Avant, Adair, Carters and a few more I don't know right off my head right now.
Y'all do great work and I enjoy watching and learning. Thank you!
I am amazed at all the features that you guys can find around these ruins. Great video.🌹
Thanks for watching!!
The pottery shard might be part of an old crock or jug.
