The JAKAB stone says that: LAJOS from Udvarhely County Transylvania born 1880 may 1st died (meghalt) 1939 september 1st and KAROLINA from Veszprem county born PARKAS(?) 1875 june 17th died 1939 november 5th.( Transylvania was once Hungarian and now part of Romania. )
There is a pioneer cemetery near my hometown in Nebraska. The old gate has a message above it that says. AS YOU ARE - WE ONCE WERE. AS WE ARE - YOU WILL SOON BE
Just came across your channel thank you for sharing this. That teacher should adhere to this one grave quote. What you are I once was,what I am now you will some day be.
@@destinationgraveyard Just watched Faces of the Forgotten channel in the recent video of the horrible condition of a cemetery on Baton Rouge, Louisiana. ruclips.net/video/5m11hdkQ4FU/видео.html
Thomas Burns Childress is the former organizer of the annual remembrance ceremony for the miners. I'm not aware of how he became connected to the memorial, but his final resting place was clearly somewhere dear to his heart. R.I.P.
Glad to see someone identified, and translated the language on the one stone. I've heard (even here in Limey land) of the Pocohontas Coal Co, which I presume was somehow connected with this story. A pity that you couldn't tell us more about the mining tragedy, and what it said on the lad's stone - presumably he was sufficiently recognisable to be identified afterwards? My great grandfather was a miner on Cannock Chase, and I've inherited an interest in mining history. (I was waiting for the matter of ghosts to crop up - usually does with US cemetery videos for some reason. I'll give you a tip - don't go specifically looking for them. They know you are, and keep well out of the way, just for fun. It's in their Union Haunt Book.)
I plan on doing a follow up of the miners they do a tour in part of the mine that is still accessible and also a memorial tribute every year at the cemetery so be sure to keep a look out for that video also . and as for the writing ill return to see if i can make out what it says it was hard to read when i was there last .
How horrible that they did that most older crypts have either been bricked in or have heavy doors put on them.Because of squatters or homeless people keep up the good work 👏.
Unfortunately, as a contractor, I can tell you that the McGee crypt is in dire need of repair because by the looks of it, it'll probably be collapsing within the next few years
It's crazy to see a grave yard and realise one day you're gonna be a grave that someone else is wondering about that future... just like we are right now
I sincerely hope that the teacher involved in the grave burglary was prosecuted and is never allowed to teach again. What she did was beyond disgusting!!!
Enjoyed this very much. Is there any way you can read to us what was on that young man’s gravestone who died in the mine explosion? It looked like a lot of writing was on his stone. Would be fascinating to know more. ….even if you are not able to do that….thanking you again for sharing that fascinating graveyard.
That teacher is horrible and them kids are cursed. The fact all the different nationalities are buried there is awesome. We all come to this world the same and leave the same as well.
Were there criminal charges for the grossly irresponsible teacher. She was responsible f0r the actions of her students. There is no way she was unaware of what was happening unless she was not there with the students she was responsible for
she was participating in the disrespectful act with the students and she was charged with a felony and fired from her job of employment .

As to nationalities differences in coal mining areas, that is NOT unusual at all. I live in a mining area in south central Illinois. The seven or so small towns and hamlets in my area all were built around separate mines and the miners came from all over Europe. We had English, Scottish, German, Austrian, Italian. Croation. Serbs, Czechs, Lithuanian, Russian. Ukranian, and Irish in a total population when the mines were operative of seven or eight thousand people. Catholic and Russian Orthodox persons had separate cemetaries, but everyone else were either buried in city cemetaries or on private farm land in country family plots.
@@destinationgraveyard Your welcome. I miss the days when most of the people here were first or second generation immigrants. Every group had is own festivals and food and it was great to sample food and drink at all of them. My Dad was a country doctor and was always gifted with food and drink from his patients. Christmas was incredible as food came in the house from almost every nationality.
That's right, because it was accessible at one time to walk in and leave flowers and pay your respects . Before it was permanently sealed, is there something wrong with that?
I just want you know that if that graveyard is haunted you do not have to wait until it’s dark to find out ,as your talking I can litterly hear wispering,don’t know if it’s your heavy breathing or not but if you go back and listen @5:07 and listen to the wispering as he is saying something about how people say it’s haunted ,it’s just gets me so mad when people think that they have to be in the dark to find out if the spirits are there because they are there day and night so give it a try and just pay attention to your surroundings thank you
I don't know what possesses people to dig up or vandalize old graves. I think it is a dare mentality among the young wannabes who don't know better, or are looking for artifacts, valuables, or are just grossly infatuated with movie inspired macabre.
How sad that people in this day and age think it’s great to desecrate graves and mausoleums and put it on social media I hope the teacher was fired and the kids were taught differently

Destination Graveyard black is not a Nationality!!! Now as far as who is a real American is I think alot of folks in North America need to educate themselves about this subject,remember it was civilizations here when the European came!! None the less great video though!!

I noticed by the boy's and the other miner's grave large chunks of coal left as a tribute.

I can't believe what that teacher did. I always make sure not to step on graves, I feel to do that personally, shows disrespect.

speaks volumes as to how they were raised
If you take a pencil or crayon and a paper you can do a rubbing and find out what is said on the stones .
Was that a piece of coal by his grave???
Yes it was .
Why would someone desecrate a grave??
My 11th great grandmother was Pocahontas. She is buried in England
Whoever did the brick work needs to find a new profession.
What kind of teacher was that,not a very mature one that’s for sure.
She was a student teacher that was also coaching cheerleaders she was charged with a felony and also fired.
