@JPVideos- I couldn't wait to see this video. I SO wanted to "live stream" as you walked this cemetery but something went wrong on my end. I could have helped you with some of the sculptures & art history.
Sounds like a grave situation. I don't know if it's a creepy thing to say but it was another enjoyable video. I can't believe the elaborate detail of some of the headstone. The one with the statue of the man was amazing.
You should've gone to the Wilkes Barre City Cemetery nearby as it was/is overgrown (like the Washburn Street one in Scranton) AND has/had a fan house from a mine right in it. thecemeterytraveler.blogspot.com/2012/09/fan-house-graves.html
Cemeteries are beautiful. I find it peaceful to stroll through them and pay my respect to all that have past. Especially to those who may not have anyone left to visit
My family starting with my great grandparents were cemetery caretakers. We lived in the upstairs apartment of the caretakers house and my grandparents lived downstairs. Some of my best childhood memories were having the entire cemetery as my playground. I used to always wonder about the lives of the people in the really old section. Nothing was more fun than playing hide and seek and scaring the life out of our friends 😂😂😂 when we got older we had jobs to do. The undertakers would give us money for helping them out by setting the chairs out. When we got old enough we would do the trimming along the stones while the workers used the riding mowers. I’m sure they found us annoying but they were all really nice to us. When my grandfather died the funeral was huge and I was really surprised at how many people remembered me.
The tour was beautiful. I never seen one so clean other than the one where I live. It is magnificent. My favorite part is the way they look like art work. Its so peaceful looking. Great video. Thank you. God bless you and your family.
This cemetery is fabulous! My hubby and i love to wonder around cemeteries. It all started finding his family back to 1906. His great grandpa was a carpenter and his tombstone has carpentry tools of that time carved on it. I enjoy reading them also. We found one that said the man was murdered. We've also found slave graves. We usually spend a lot of time at them. He wonders off one way and i wonder off another way. My favorite was the unique round stone and the red stone crypt. Thank you jp...sorry Mike was laying down on the job 😆
What a beautiful & calming cematary. The statue of the sad gentalmen IS really sad. Maybe he lost someone he really loved. 💔 But I hope they are together again hopefully in heaven.
I love walking through cemeteries. I find a sort of peacefulness. This one is beautifully set on the hillsides with many interesting tombstones. Thank you for sharing Jason. 👍🏻😊
I've always been fascinated with cemeteries since I was quite young. This is an exceptionally scenic and very unique one...Enjoyed watching..well done J.P...the montage, music etc..very touching..Thank-you for the tour♥️
Rich history in this cemetery. The mausoleums are beautiful. The life sized carved stone statue in front of the tombstone was something I've never seen before.
What a beautiful place. What is up with all the bugs? I am going to be cremated - no burial plot blah blah blah - waste of money. Put me in a plastic bag and I'll be ready to go just don't throw my ashes in the BBQ grill.....Those numbered markers I believe are from a "Potters Field" A hospital right across the street...hmmm good for morale....
The tombstone that looked like a tree stump is for Woodmen of the World, a fraternal organization with burial benefits. Membership dues cover a type of life insurance.
I am not familiar with that place in W-B. I only know about Bell Furniture on Main and during 1972 Hurricane Agnes a cemetery near Susquehanna River, soil was erosion and caskets popped out. Creepy! And 17 miles up to Scranton. Dunmore cemetery among with wealthy like Sunny Woolworth. And west of Scranton at Washburn Cemetery where Hillary Clinton grandparent and parents are buried there and this past summer the owner was absent and volunteers had to mow overgrown weeds. Sad.
First of all I have to give a comment for Mike. I love that shirt. Can't go wrong with Daryl Dixon. lol The cemetery is indeed beautiful and serene. I have always found them so peaceful and tranquil. I guess that is what people think of when burying their loved ones.
How beautiful....wow! I could spend hours there. It looks like a peaceful place. The most disturbing thing I have ever seen is people buried North South instead of East West. Have you ever seen any like that? The funniest thing I have ever heard and seen is about the graveyard behind my house. There is a small county road that goes thru the middle of it. So there are graves on each side of the road. My boyfriends family as well as another family were the first settlers of this community. He said that the people around here used to be buried by there political affiliation. Lol! If you were a democrat you would be buried on one side of the road and Republican on the otherside. Lol! He said one of the local democrats in the community had it written up in his will to be buried in the Republican side just to make sure he could keep pissing the Republicans in the community off....lol! I thought that was hilarious...people use to have fun with their neighbors and do for there neighbors. Every body helped pick each other's gardens and helped when they got sick. You sit on your front porch and People stop and say hi. We still have some of that here thank God but People today have lost there minds over politics... My boyfriend said this guy was the jokester of the community. God bless
You called it Jay, Exquisitely Beautiful. Mausoleums are just magnificent, sky, hillside, trees, statue, all of it. Loved the shot of the train you captured. What a peaceful place to walk. Montage was incredible. Thank you so much! :)
I think that the one that has power running to it might be a memorial chapel for the cemetery. Our local cemetery has one for folks who can't afford a funeral home funeral, but can afford burial.
The guy in the thumb nail reminds me of... 'US'..... all waiting patiently (well...not really patiently, more like on the edge of our chairs) for the Cemetary tour. Timer is set🤗🤗🤗🤗
@@JPVideos81 We have a cemetey called Angel Hill. They are buried on a hill that has alot of those glass solar lights next to the headstones, looks very eary at night. There's A small house on the property, was maybe a grave care takers house maybe. If I can win the coin case & am awarded the truck from the dude & get the proper camra/ect it would make a nice respectful video or too there in day/night time. I have the Weird Maryland book from Werid U.S. / I'll see if they have one on Pennsylvania, it might help to give you some vide ideas, find some Interresting places. Well I wish you a fun time on this live stream & hopefully troll city will partying some where & leave us in peace. Sorry I can't help out 'mod-ing' but it gives me more time to watch, the 1st time round, & I'm sure everything will be 'cool', but it won't have been my fault if someone might unfairly be timed out or whatever, of course I hope that never happens again. May sound funny but after studying my Bible I prayed for having a great & fun live stream, alittle prayer never hurts. Bell ringing time soon with the Salvation Army, don't know if I'll do it this yr, for 7 yrs I've done 10 hrs a day/night, 6 days a week. Na, too cold. If any of your subs need jobs you can work for $12. an hr this yr., more then I ever got😁 But at almost 70, it's getting a bit much. Fun thing is I'm still asked to show proof some times to buy cigs. I walk every where & luv metal detecting, & my church & teaching the church kids music & crafts. Fun times. LIVE STREAM SOON.🤗
Very nice and respectful video. I believe the numbered plaques are for people that were to poor to afford a stone. The cemetery office should have a log that records the names of the people that correspond to the number on the plaque. The head stone that looked like a tree was a woodsman of America member. The were kind of like the Masons.
Very beautiful and peaceful,cemetery,Jay and Mike! You guys did a terrific job,filming! I loved all the mausoleums! They are so beautiful and artistic! That cemetery is so beautiful and peaceful,with all those trees.The scenery of the hillside,is so beautiful. It really made my day,this video and I would love to see more videos,like this! I really liked your shirt,Jay! It was so cool and very colorful! Keep those wonderful videos coming,Jay! God bless!
Hi JP. Beautiful cemetery, seems well kept up. By the way, your photos are fantastic. My Fiance belongs to the Art guild in Pueblo, CO and he has some beautiful pictures hanging up. Just a hobby for him and he does it quite well. Great video and thank you for sharing. Much love and be safe.
Very impressive and your use of black and white photography was awesome and cool! Our Bellefontaine Cemetery is very old as well loaded with all the founding fathers of St. Louis, Mo. On the far North side of the city which was the original area that was inhabited. Thanks for sharing...love the moseliems.
All of the different mausoleums are very interesting, I love old cemeteries especially the ones with grave stones from back in the 1800's. Excellent video well done JP. 🎃🌷🙂👍
I ❤ this video! If you go to the west a little there are 3 large cemeteries right next to each other including Maple Hill where my great grandparents and other relatives are buried. It reminds me of this one because of the hills and beautiful views. You should check it out!
truly beautiful cemetary, I really like visiting them. to me, when you read the names out loud , it's like a remembrance of that person who may not have anyone left to visit them . please visit older ones if you can find them. the history is amazing!
My mom and Dad would have picnics at the cemetery when I was a kid we would get so hungry visiting all the graves so my mom would pack lunch throw a blanket down and we eat lunch one of my favorite child hood memorys
I Absolutely love Cemeteries..if you possibly can..go to Allegheny Cemetery in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania..on what's called Millionaires Row..it'll blow your mind
Breathtaking photography! The tikes graves were all surname Jacobs. So I don't think Hughes was the father. Bert born 1898, died at 6 in 1904. Carrie born 1892, died at 2 y.o., Orissa 1894, died at 1 y.o, and George, born in 1903, and died in 1904 at 1 y.o. Such sadness for a family. Bert and George died in 1904. The Hughes were already dead by 1871.
Beautiful cemetery!! My favorite mausoleum was the unique gothic style one with the big wooden doors and the wrought iron wreaths in the windows... so cool!! Thanks JP and Mike 👍🏻❤️
Such a beautiful place. So peaceful and tranquil. The Mausoleums, they fascinate me. I could spend a leisurely day walking and admiring them all. I'd be very happy to tour more cemeteries with you. Beautiful montage to finish off on. An amazing place 💖💕💖
Bronze. Copper is too expensive and too soft to be used as a structure. This cemetery is what I imagined when I read Dracula. All the walk in tombs and amazing architecture.
My sons tombstone is a penguin. (made from Pennsylvania black marble) I wonder what people 100+ years now will think. Behind him and to the right are several "Paupers graves" with white crosses. (no names or dates)
The headstone that looks like a tree belongs to the order Modern Woodmen of America. A mid to late 19 th C and early 20 th C men’s organization that is still active with over 750,000 members. Their headstones were just like the one you have on your video . Very cool! Thanks for sharing.
The tree stump grave marker is from The Wood Men of the World fraternal order. See this: historichouston1836.com/woodmen-of-the-world/ I believe they are more often found in the west and midwest. Also: to read faded inscriptions, try a high powered flashlight obliquely across the lettering. Works for my favorite southern expolers, Side Step Adventures.
some of the oldest with the most character have steps off the pathway to them. Right next to them are steps without a building. Ruins? Older than 1850's
Beautiful cemetery with an amazing assortment of stone and mausoleum styles. Loved the dome shaped stone. Quite a few obelisks like the Washington Monument. The one that looked like wood is a Woodsmen of the World monument.
there's an old Cemetery between Center Avenue ancestry Highway here Reading Pennsylvania I think you'd be really be interested in it see all these real old ohh-ohh-ohh gravestones mausoleums
Perfect for me to watch in memory of my Mother's Death Ann. Yest. I was happy to finally put her to rest in Sept. a day after my BDay so that will always be special. So many Cem. 's to go to... I have always enjoyed the peacefulness at them. The music was lovely at the end. Gorgeous pics as always. Always a fan :)
Very beautiful and peaceful looking cemetery. I made a trip to England and France once and went to as many old churches and cemeteries as I could. It was awe inspiring to see the years on the few that were legible. Most were worn totally off. It gave me a sense of time that I had never seriously thought about before.
I went on a walking tour of this cemetery with a rep of the local historical society . According to him, those black metal markers with just numbers are the graves the orphans of the poor, many whos fathers worked in the mines. A wealthy woman at that time opened an orphanage, school or hospital (cant remember the details) for them and saw to the burials since these poor little ones had no families. It was a profound story, maybe you could make a video about it.
That's the best cemetery I've ever seen pretty amazing loved the church mosoleum even the one that looks like a house very creative whoever designed those graves and I like how the American people put the flags in the cemetery proud country or should I say proud state great video
If you want to know whats on the older headstones do a rubbing basically paper and a pencil hold paper on stone and rub with pencil will bring up inscriptions
Ahw! I especially love that MediEval looking church-like mousoleum! I think it's lovely! But hey ... A graveyard ASIDE a hospital?! Hmmm ... In my opinion I think it doesn't work out well for the patients staying in the hospital (bad energies!) ... But overhere in the Netherlands they sometimes are that crazy too! I know an academical university hospital (which on it's own is a good hospital) which has the mortuary aside the kitchen in the cellar! You also can go there via the cellar from the one half of the building to the other and in earlier times there also were the surgery rooms and recovery rooms ... But the energy overthere is VERY creepy! Once I walked through that long alley with a friend of mine (because I wanted to show her) and as we walked along the kitchen and thereafter is a side alley to the mortuary, I FELT quite some crowdiness of lost entities in that alley which leads to the mortuary! I think it's NOT good to have a kitchen aside there because the energy of the dead goes straight into the food which is prepared in the kitchen overthere ... But hey, that's just my opinion eh?
Hey Jay, I just thought of a place you might like to check out in Pennsylvania for maybe EVPSs type haunted investigation, it is called Cemetey Hill. A very big battle took place there, many bodies were just piled up waiting to be buried so it was turned into a cemetey. Some investestgations have turned up EVPs and I just thought you might be interested since it is in your home state. Another cematary right across the street from the VA hospital is where Mr. Poe was buried. A creepy thing is that it is known, (how I don't know) to have had folks buried while still alive, comma victims maybe? How they would know folks were buried alive I don't know. They had folks at one time at different cematarys buried with a string leading up to a bell was a 'thing' way back...for folks afraid of being buried alive. But think about it ....who would be around to hear the bell? I'm thinking about having a green funeral as I'm not crazy about the idea that about 8 Olimpic size pools could be filled a year to show how much formaldehyde is used in regular burials each year in the US alone & eventually that goes into the grounds. Another fact is since metal caskets were started to be used and up to 2019, the amount of metal buried in the ground could build the SanFranisco bridge, wow ! One could use their ashes to make a 1 caret diamond then you could be around & admired as a piece of jewelry. It takes about 16 weeks to make a diamond from a person's carbon ashes. Or you could be made into a box of penciles and when the shavings are kept and the penciles are gone the shavings can be put in an container. Just another fun Halloween fact.🙃. Me? I want to be nicer to mother earth. They have a thing called a mushroom suite to be buried in of all things. The mushroom suite is kept in a plastic bag with all the air sucked out and will keep that way till needed. The suite has mushroom seeds in it & the mushrooms take all of the toxens out of the body or such some thing. Crazy stuff maybe but it is still nicer to mother earth. The one I hate is the metal container where a body is put in and super boiling water is used to liquidfie the body & it all goes back into our water system.😨 Have you drunk YOUR 8 glasses of water today? Happy 🎃 Halloween!!!
For similar cemeteries, you should check out Forty Fort Cemetery in Forty Fort, and Maplewood Cemetery in Carbondale. The latter is overgrown, but there's a lot of history there.
Halloween is almost here, so let's get in the mood by taking a walk through the Hollenback Cemetery.
@JPVideos- I couldn't wait to see this video. I SO wanted to "live stream" as you walked this cemetery but something went wrong on my end. I could have helped you with some of the sculptures & art history.

Love to mt bike thru old cemeterys. You cover more ground and see more. And you don't make any noise.
You should've gone to the Wilkes Barre City Cemetery nearby as it was/is overgrown (like the Washburn Street one in Scranton) AND has/had a fan house from a mine right in it.

So much history that can be gained from cemeteries - this one you have shared with us is fascinating and beautiful.

Remember that great private one with the unique tree like stones, that you had to take down. That one is unforgettable.
One of my favorites
Sweet 👍 JPVideos! For a Cemetery it looks AWESOME, & GINORMIS!!!!!!!!!!

A beautiful cemetery. I don’t think we have mausoleums in our cemeteries in New Zealand🇳🇿
Beautiful cemetary! The mausoleums were pretty amazing. So were alot of the gravestones.
Beautiful cemetery with some incredible private mausoleums. A lot of history there.
Strangely I enjoyed this, never thought i would. Love the historical value.
Thanks for taking the time to watch
Seeing all the tomb vaults was amazing. We don't have anything like that in my parts. 🙂 The one with wooden doors is my favorite. Very European.
Such a beautiful place. So peaceful and tranquil. The Mausoleums, they fascinate me. I could spend a leisurely day walking and admiring them all. I'd be very happy to tour more cemeteries with you. Beautiful montage to finish off on. An amazing place 💖💕💖

The headstone that looks like a tree belongs to the order Modern Woodmen of America. A mid to late 19 th C and early 20 th C men’s organization that is still active with over 750,000 members. Their headstones were just like the one you have on your video . Very cool! Thanks for sharing.
I would love it if you could take more photos of our Veteran's grave stones, especially if you run across pre-and post- Civil War Era ones. Thank you!
Excellent video. I had a friend who was a pastor in Wilkes-Barre. I'm pretty sure he preached at a lot of funerals in that cemetery. Small world.
The tree stump grave marker is from The Wood Men of the World fraternal order. See this: historichouston1836.com/woodmen-of-the-world/ I believe they are more often found in the west and midwest.
Also: to read faded inscriptions, try a high powered flashlight obliquely across the lettering. Works for my favorite southern expolers, Side Step Adventures.
A lovely place, calm beauty with great history. Thank you for sharing
some of the oldest with the most character have steps off the pathway to them. Right next to them are steps without a building. Ruins? Older than 1850's
Beautiful cemetery with an amazing assortment of stone and mausoleum styles. Loved the dome shaped stone. Quite a few obelisks like the Washington Monument. The one that looked like wood is a Woodsmen of the World monument.
there's an old Cemetery between Center Avenue ancestry Highway here Reading Pennsylvania I think you'd be really be interested in it see all these real old ohh-ohh-ohh gravestones mausoleums
One of many beautiful cemetery I seen, everything about is amazing so I do not have just one like but many. Thanks JP for the tour
Perfect for me to watch in memory of my Mother's Death Ann. Yest. I was happy to finally put her to rest in Sept. a day after my BDay so that will always be special. So many Cem. 's to go to... I have always enjoyed the peacefulness at them. The music was lovely at the end. Gorgeous pics as always. Always a fan :)

Very beautiful and peaceful looking cemetery. I made a trip to England and France once and went to as many old churches and cemeteries as I could. It was awe inspiring to see the years on the few that were legible. Most were worn totally off. It gave me a sense of time that I had never seriously thought about before.
I went on a walking tour of this cemetery with a rep of the local historical society . According to him, those black metal markers with just numbers are the graves the orphans of the poor, many whos fathers worked in the mines. A wealthy woman at that time opened an orphanage, school or hospital (cant remember the details) for them and saw to the burials since these poor little ones had no families. It was a profound story, maybe you could make a video about it.
That's the best cemetery I've ever seen pretty amazing loved the church mosoleum even the one that looks like a house very creative whoever designed those graves and I like how the American people put the flags in the cemetery proud country or should I say proud state great video
I found the one with the gothic look and power running to it the most beautiful and picturesque. It looks like a little cottage.
If you want to know whats on the older headstones do a rubbing basically paper and a pencil hold paper on stone and rub with pencil will bring up inscriptions
Ahw! I especially love that MediEval looking church-like mousoleum! I think it's lovely!
But hey ... A graveyard ASIDE a hospital?! Hmmm ... In my opinion I think it doesn't work out well for the patients staying in the hospital (bad energies!) ... But overhere in the Netherlands they sometimes are that crazy too! I know an academical university hospital (which on it's own is a good hospital) which has the mortuary aside the kitchen in the cellar! You also can go there via the cellar from the one half of the building to the other and in earlier times there also were the surgery rooms and recovery rooms ... But the energy overthere is VERY creepy! Once I walked through that long alley with a friend of mine (because I wanted to show her) and as we walked along the kitchen and thereafter is a side alley to the mortuary, I FELT quite some crowdiness of lost entities in that alley which leads to the mortuary! I think it's NOT good to have a kitchen aside there because the energy of the dead goes straight into the food which is prepared in the kitchen overthere ... But hey, that's just my opinion eh?
Wonderful job JP

Hey Jay, I just thought of a place you might like to check out in Pennsylvania for maybe EVPSs type haunted investigation, it is called Cemetey Hill.
A very big battle took place there, many bodies were just piled up waiting to be buried so it was turned into a cemetey. Some investestgations have turned up EVPs and I just thought you might be interested since it is in your home state.
Another cematary right across the street from the VA hospital is where Mr. Poe was buried. A creepy thing is that it is known, (how I don't know) to have had folks buried while still alive, comma victims maybe? How they would know folks were buried alive I don't know.
They had folks at one time at different cematarys buried with a string leading up to a bell was a 'thing' way back...for folks afraid of being buried alive. But think about it ....who would be around to hear the bell?
I'm thinking about having a green funeral as I'm not crazy about the idea that about 8 Olimpic size pools could be filled a year to show how much formaldehyde is used in regular burials each year in the US alone & eventually that goes into the grounds.
Another fact is since metal caskets were started to be used and up to 2019, the amount of metal buried in the ground could build the SanFranisco bridge, wow !
One could use their ashes to make a 1 caret diamond then you could be around & admired as a piece of jewelry. It takes about 16 weeks to make a diamond from a person's carbon ashes.
Or you could be made into a box of penciles and when the shavings are kept and the penciles are gone the shavings can be put in an container. Just another fun Halloween fact.🙃.
Me? I want to be nicer to mother earth. They have a thing called a mushroom suite to be buried in of all things. The mushroom suite is kept in a plastic bag with all the air sucked out and will keep that way till needed. The suite has mushroom seeds in it & the mushrooms take all of the toxens out of the body or such some thing. Crazy stuff maybe but it is still nicer to mother earth.
The one I hate is the metal container where a body is put in and super boiling water is used to liquidfie the body & it all goes back into our water system.😨
Have you drunk YOUR 8 glasses of water today?
Happy 🎃 Halloween!!!
It would be cool to research and do a history of the Stegmaier family from Wilkes Barre find a grave has a lot on them
For similar cemeteries, you should check out Forty Fort Cemetery in Forty Fort, and Maplewood Cemetery in Carbondale. The latter is overgrown, but there's a lot of history there.
Beautiful, cemetery,strange there don't seem to be any benches to sit on.
Beautiful photographs! Thanks
Many of the streets or sections of W-B, are named after families you mentioned, that are buried in this cemetery.
Numbered plates may be veterans or indigent graves.
