My family is from Kentucky. I’ve been researching and we are not from Africa nor were slaves. My ancestors were farmers with nearly a thousand of farming acres. I suggest everyone research their past. The US Census was a great help of uncovering the truth.🇺🇸
You look Cameroonian
@@empressof1 No, not part of my family’s history. Never been and not claiming it. My family has ton of documents including land deeds.
@@cienergi what parts of Kentucky are your family from? I am from eastern Kentucky and I recently took interest in finding my roots could you please share with me how you go about doing that
Congratulations, God bless 🙏
@@empressof1 no she don't go ahead with that. The myth is OVER. You're the real slaves. She's BLOOD RIGHT to America and home. Everyone else are foreigners not "African Americans". You never even been to Cameroon lol. Her complexion is THE MUD. Yours is likely THE DESERT. That's why ain't no mention of native Americans in this fabricated story and ALOT of DRAWINGS for a people who were highly sophisticated in technology. We had cell phones THEN and we are the children of the ancient mound builders .
Great program. I am so glad it emphasizes the importance of History in all its aspects. Thank you.
Love this. Thank you so much for putting this on here.
I'm from Muhlenberg Co originally, amd my family (surname ancestry) has been there since 1804....before that they were in Woodford Co....and before that in Goochland VA. The original ancestor was married (my 5th grandmother) to a Campbell. Her family had been all over....after her father fought at Kings Mountain they moved to near Knoxville....then to Fayette Co by 1784......where they branched out and settled in the west of that era. Her first cousin settled my hometown of Greenville. I absolutely love the pioneer history of KY and how a huge part of my family settled it.
I loved living in Muhlenberg County. I wish I was still there.
My family is from Muhlenberg KY also!
This is so fascinating to me. My greatx5 was James B. YOUNG born in 1801 in Winchester, KY just north of Fort Boonesborough.
Love to see this on youtube. I was an archeology major and its neat to learn about what life was like based on all the atrifacts found. Thank you. : )
Wow what a great history lesson thanks❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm from Berea Kentucky and my ancestors played a part in Boonesborro. Harrison and John Renta Baker, who was a longbow hunter.
Excellent documentary! I learned a lot about the state I was born in!
This was excellent!
I am so intrigued, I really love picking up new information about history. As I am an Aussie I apparently have Ancestry of English peoples (Devon) who live in America. I know them not
My 12th great grandfather left Devon in 1619....for Jamestown. He was Dr John Woodson.... His wife was a Sarah Winfrey who was from Dorcet. 25 years after he arrived he was killed in an Indian attack. We may be distant kin....very fascinating to know I may, and probably do, have relations across the globe.
What happened in the past affects what happens in the future.
People are the same today as they always have been. We live by the norms of our time. We are no better or worse than people of the past.
Wish they would do this in Tuscaloosa Ala.
A lot of coins had holes drilled to tie them with string as people didn't have pockets
Sorry to see that Native America history was overlooked with very little said on the matter.
I live in Catlettsburg Kentucky and Maxwell Kentucky they've already tore down historic building who was the first hospital in this area it was made in the mid-1800s demolished
My dad's family are from the same holler in eastern Kentucky since genealogy done by a relative went back to 1770's when the courthouse burned down and haven't been able to go back any further so far. Being real close to the Virginia border, this part of Appalachia was settled no doubt by those ame people who were around during the time this country became a country.
Back then someone would make a claim from a creek or river, on one side and take up a whole bottom near the flowing water, and up the side of one or two adjacent mountains with a holler cut up the middle of the two. Depending on the lay of the land, ones parcel may end at the top of the mountains...or much further depending on the next running water or creek source. Water flows down in the bottom between every few mountains even if the rate and volume of flow may be small. Those natural "boundaries" were first used as property lines when the Commonwealth was first settled.
Sure we all have immigrated to this great country, it's just mind blowing this half of my family has been pretty much in the same spot for around 275 years in the same general area. It don't take long, just a few generations, for young men and women to marry as the original home place gets split up into smaller parcels. Many of these would not be farmed on their own due to no flat land but back then if one set out to farm they would make sure their parcel came with enough of the flatter land near water.
On my mom's side of the family both grandparents came from big farming families in the west/southwestern side of Kentucky near the Ohio River which would be another interesting genealogy to study some day. Not so pleasant answers may arise to questions such as why my grandmother was the second oldest of 13 kids, all of whom died of cancer within a relatively small amount of time, with the exception of two who died young due to other causes. My grandfather's story is not much different but not as dramatic in numbers of deaths due to cancer which were spread out over several more years.
What are the circular pieces shown at 27:48 in the video. I found a bone piece that is hand worked while hunting artifacts in ohio that looks the same. I have never been able to tell what it is but it looks the same. Thanks!
If this area floods so many times over the past 100 years, why not DREDGE the river? The rich silt would be welcomed by farmers near the river.
Wait is this about Cornwall island or is it Cornwallis...I've only heard about it one time In third grade...I wish someone would make a video about it it's got to be somewhat rare knowledge.... because I've only been told by one teacher and everyone I ask about it says"there was an island of the shore of Louisville???"...that statue on the belvedere...he's pointing right where the island used to me...but that's all I know
Great channel brother! Big hugs from an oldman in Chicago!!!
I wish I could be on a dig
Why arent there more Blacks out helping uncovering their pass 😊
FREEDOM DONT COME IF CHEAP OUR COUNTRY IS GONING BACK JUST LIKE IT WAS IF YOU DONT FIGHT FOR IT YOU ARE GONING LOSE IT THE ARE TRY TO TAKE IT TO DAY YOU BETTER TAKE A GOOD LOOK WHAT THEY TRY TO DO DAY
😦
Lexington is built over a race of Giants city 😳. There are 120 counties in Kentucky, and EVERY ONE HAS GIANT BURERIAL MOUNDS. OUR HISTORY IS A LIE.
I've read that when they were building downtown Lexington they had to build around tunnels that had already been here a long time. There were supposedly giant skeletons with reddish hair in the tunnels. A person connected with the original and very real Bavarian Illuminati in the 1700s went out of his way to visit the tunnels. The tunnels are said to be connected with the mound builders. Lexington also has one of the oldest Freemason Lodges in the country, and I remember finding info that connected the original Lexington Grandmaster and this stuff, and connections to Transylvania University. If you have any sources or links to connecting and relevant info regarding stuff like the Lexington tunnels or giants I would greatly appreciate it if you would share it, thanks
Archeological digs should take place before anything is built. Why isn’t there a law like this?
My DNA connects me to Kentucky Ancestors who were settlers & Appalachian explorers and Longhunters.
The terrible treatment of the colored Union soldiers families gave me chills.
I see why there were so few subs
My great grandparents were from Kentucky before moving north to Michigan in the late1800. Do not remember the name of the county they were from, seems to me it started with an H. My grandmother was born in Ohio while they traveling north.
we would love to help in the state
These old documentary's show our mortality well, in a hundred years nobody will even know where your buried if someone decided to build something next to your grave 😂 probably won't be anyone around to bury anyone else by then anyway.
Yep
why bring up slavery every five seconds.... just show me the artifacts
Because artifacts are only a small portion of archaeology, most of which is about telling the story of people. And when you're telling the story of people in 19th-century Kentucky, the subject of slavery is unavoidable.
WHAT A PILE OF UNBREATHABLE AIR YOU ARE
I have learned so much after watching these documentaries I’m shocked to find out White people came to America and didn’t contribute a thing to the betterment of human life. All the progress was gained by slaves, black ones and Indians.
@@Marg205 one of the dumbest things ive ever read, not gonna lie
@@Marg205 As she’s messaging the world via the white invented internet on a white created communications device… Powered by the white invented electricity ⚡️… don’t you have somewhere to be by way of your white invented automobile 🚗 Maybe to an airport where you can board an airplane ✈️ created by white people. All done in less than 300 years compared to the rest of the world that couldn’t even come close in thousands of years.
The first western frontier was west of Jamestown and Plymouth
Does anyone know if they've started bringing back the bison to the Blue Ridge Mountains? I sure hope they do, along with the elk.
dont ask about the ancient mummies 🤠
I wanna know where Iam from My roots are from Mexico 🇲🇽
The clay reconstructions look like aliens with a Fivehead
Went from Kentucky history to today's dope town Ohio
Is this a bout Archaeology or slaves
Underneath luuuuuuullvuuulllll
There were of American Indian slaves, not African!!
The amount of denial of the hatred in this area goes way back! I am not surprised at the supernatural denial of the shadow things so common here. the mystery censorship anti religion seems nested to the root
Look at us now
How can any even moderately educated person use the non word EXPECIALLY?
Slaves were not Americans this is sad
Neither were Native Americans, they were just Native. That's better isn't it? ;)
No slave is a citizen. Them's the rules.
There has never been americans, nomads,from all over the globe, traveled to this land, created AMERICA & now their descendents are trying to destroy America
"Their slaves" = "the people they enslaved".
I absolutely love the fact of what you are trying to accomplish!!! But one of the opening statements was from 1500 ad until now!!!! Well Columbus was 1492 and recently there’s proof the Vikings were here before Columbus!!!! So I already know I will not get the whole story!!!! Please research before you report!!!!!
I've come to understand that there were also Caucasian slaves. Does anyone know where they might have been?
Lost to history because I don't think people care.
Is this about the history of a place or a history of black people .
Let me narrow it down for you, we all came from Adam & Eve,!
I wonder if the slaves used hemp to smoke. Let’s face it if you smoke and run out of baccy wouldn’t you try it, I mean we see many smokers just after freedom was acquired we do see men and women with pipes and cigarettes in mouths.
If its not Native American then its really not Ancient,...!
Must you sound exactly like you are reading the script. It’s like listening to someone chew.
Grave robbers.
B.S.
the children made those holes in those coins...we ll did back in the 50s.
too bad they dont investigate the old city build thousand yrs ago on the mile strech and sextons creek in clay county....there was a city there almost five miles wide and the natives had busniesses and factories there .but this was way before europens or africans came ther from across the sea..there are also egyptian writing on hill cliffs and in caves in clay county kentucky....apparent;y these batives lived far bwetter then wgite men still di there..
Fascinating! Do you know the name of the tribe that built this city?
