I have a ancestor who survived the Salem witch trials, her name was Sarah. She was called a witch because she got pregnant by her second husband (1st husband passed)when she was older. She never conceived in her younger years, Because she was a very mature woman they thought it was witchcraft.. Sarah must have made a deal with the devil to get pregnant. Her husband put his life on the line and petition to spare her life and the unborn and he succeeded. We found this out about a year ago, she was on my mother’s side of the family tree. I think she was a amazing woman ❤
They knew so little about fertility back then. What a shame for your ancestor and others. Also always thinking it was the Woman's fault if there were no children. Couldn't be the man. 😖
My mom did genealogy, And discovered that my ancestors were related to Thomas in AnnCarr Putnam He also found an original arrest warrant for Martha Corey, which is actually really cool question what is your ancestors one of the accused or the accusers?
The symbol of the oil lamp on those headstones is a symbol of Christian preparedness, as in the parable of the 10 virgins waiting for the bridgroom; 5 were unprepared because they ran out of oil and while they were off getting more, the groom locked them out. The 5 wise ones brought extra oil and went into the feast.
PJ 1795.. incredible time he lived in. The fog rolling in gave it a really spooky ambiance. Neat OLD cemetery, and Mike sounded interesting. This was a really good one Ron! Ty
this was cool! We think one of our ancestors was a Mary Bradbury that was accused of being one of the witches. She ended up getting away from being killed.
I am thankful for the groups that clean the stones with the permission of their families....I appreciate them...Some of my family I didn't know their names until they were cleaned up.
Thank You Ron ! This was a nice surprise. I am descended from James Ballou (1684-1784) Obadiah's brother and Abners uncle. And also Sarah Ballou and Uriah Jillson (1711-1781) Living on the other side of the Country I most likely would have never seen this Lovely Cemetary. Thank You So Very Much ! 💝
Ron to bad you couldn't go to Center Church in New Haven. Part of the graveyard is actually under the Church. Not sure if there are any interesting stories but just the fact that they left the graveyard intact and built above it is interesting. You can go into the (basement) in see the stones.
Actually I have no interest of filming that because it’s been done over and over on RUclips. The stories I do are mostly untold stories - and that’s what I’m pretty much exclusively doing now. That’s what I look for. And that’s what our viewers are looking for. But yeah - I’ve been there - I’ve seen it - but if I do re-run stuff our viewers are disappointed and it hurts my channel, the algorithm. But thank you - if it hasn’t been worn out on RUclips, a great suggestion there. 😊👍
Dear Ron: Your graciousness, respect and compassion for the buried people always shines through. It's always so interesting and informative to watch your videos! Bless you on all your journeys that we follow! ❤
In England they had small headstones if they didn't have much money. As you paid the stonemason by the letter, they could only afford the initials. Love your channel ❤
The Ballou Meeting House Rd cemetery was even spookier back in the 70s when there were no houses around. Lived down the road from there. As a teenager friends and I went to visit it on Halloween night. Very creepy! 👻
Well he's not into preaching. He's an architect, a pilot and an artist. He doesn't need to get wrapped up in religion. He has also lost a daughter. He's doing what I would deem as historical. One of his many talents.
@BrendaPhillips09 Sadly, religion is not about GOD anymore. But it's God that gave us Ron so he could help us all to remember the Forgotten ones.. because of him, I see the people and not just head stones when I go to the cemetery now .
Cool cemetery! I'd love to go wandering around there. In my town in western NY we have those same kind of vaults built into the ground with the iron doors. The cemetery was built in the 1850s, I believe. I can't wait to see more of these places. Thank you, Ron.
Tombstones from the 1700s fascinate me the most bc they’re becoming more rare as time goes on. Just starting & already creeped out can you imagine walking around there just a few hours later in the dark by yourself? I can’t. 🎃 👻
I just read a book called 'Killing The Witches' and I knew the Salem hunts and trials were bad but the whole debacle was far worse than a lot of people seem to realise.
This cemetery is so cool! Its a shame it can't be taken care of & cleaned up a bit. The fog rolling in looks eerie 😮😅 Your flashlight looks like a couple i have. It has that strobe like blinking as a S.O.S.
Great video! The crunching of the leaves underfoot, the fog rolling in, the beautiful red, orange and gold leaves on the graves. Watching thus, I can almost smell October.🍁
Elder Ballou is the among the best of the old New England Cemeteries. Watching RUclips, I can feel the Presence of the people there and imagine them, the individuals they were and their personalities. To be there in person would be, well no words to describe the experience. Thanks Ron for the great video!
GOOD MORNING RON,GOOD TO SEEYOU AS ALLWAYS WITH ANOTHER HISTORY WALK I REALLY LOVE THIS CEMETERY,SO PEACEFULL AND TRANQUIL , VERY OLD HISTORY HERE LOVE THE PATINA ON THE GRAVES , ,DONT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE IS A ROAD IN BETWEEN THE GRAVES 😢 BE CAREFUL ON THE ROAD RON ,REMEMBER YOU ONLY HAVE1 LIFE LEFT 😮😮 😮 THANK YOU DEBB FOR RESEARCH . GEES RON I WOULD, LOVE TO VISIT THIS CEMETERY , IM WITH YOU RON LEAVE THE GRAVES AS THEY ARE . THEFOG IS TELLING YOU TO GET OUT OF THERE , 😮😮 DEAR LITTLE CHILDRENS GRAVES RIP LITTLE CHERUBS RIP, WHY,WHY ,WHY ,DO PEOPLE GO AND DISRESPECT THE GRAVES ,ABSOLUTELY DISRESPECTFUL , : RIP DEAR PILGRIMS RIP.LOVED THIS ONE. RON. NOW GO HOME BEFORE THEFOG GETS YA 😅 DI AUSSIE 🇦🇺
Worst drivers in the country here in RI! I know those places very well, Whipple were a prominent family of Cumberland. Amazing history up there, we have to hit the monastery next time!
Hi I grew up down the road from there off Elder Ballou Meeting House Rd. was all us kids playing grown. He didn't talk to you about the quarry on the back left side of the cemetery. During the Civil War they mined Cumberlandnite and oar that they used to build cannons for the war. The only other state that has this oar is Nebraska.
I have to tell you, because it just blows my mind whenever I watch your videos, just how much you look like my nephew, Manfred! He has passed on and was 60 yrs old at the time of his sudden death - aneurysm! I am 4 years older than him, and he died about 8 years ago. But it just hit me the first time I watched one of your videos! My nephew was such a handsome guy, with curly hair and you look so much like him it is uncanny!!! 😊😊😊
Great video as always , only just a reminder to everyone walking outside this time of year it’s starting to get darker in the evenings now. Please remember to fasten you reflective safety tags or devices to your jackets . The thin lined reflective tape is great wrapped around the tops of kids boots if they have to wait for the school bus by the side of the road .
I'm surprised to see death dates in the 1800s. The appearance of the headstones had me thinking 1600s. Guessing its weather, stone type and probably acid rain. Pretty wild to have a memorial marking your life but no engraving remaining.
I wish more people were interested in maintaining these historic cemeteries. Such a beautiful place. It could be even better with a little care. The old photos you shared sure showed how this cemetery has been allowed to deteriorate. Thank you for all the great stories and videos!
Some of these people were alive when George Washington was alive, amazing. Also I feel like the spirits in the cemetery are watching you, lol. There's a face in the rock in the last barred crypt 28:39 I was born and raised in New England, my ancestors go back to the Mayflower. I miss it.
These sacred places are so serene and their continued, unmolested (for the most part, with local vandals excepted) existence represents the "domestic tranquility" we Americans have grown to take for granted. I encourage EVERYONE who adores this channel to visit these wonderful cemeteries while they are still there to appreciate. This environment will not last forever.
I remember as a kid in Warwick Rhode Island. There was an old cemetery we used to play in right next door to my grandmother’s house. Now I wish I would have known it was history. I see on google earth it’s been cleaned up. I so want to go back now as an adult and see what it looks like in person. But living in Texas it’s a long ways away. Love the videos Ron
Miss Amey Smith daughter of Paul & Prudence Smith. The one at 16.25. Reads Peter Darling Esq who died May 16th in the 93yr of his age. Also, on his headstone it looks like either a four-leaf clover or a Pinwheel.
Ron said that he saw a stem coming off the pattern, which still doesn't help as it can still be a either the Four-leaf clover or Pinwheel. The difference between the two is religion. The Four-leaf clover means that they are Catholic, and the Pinwheel means that they are Lutheran.
It's a sad but interesting cemetery very beautiful and peaceful, looks very spooky, the ones with no writing on,is sad,so long ago specially when you said lost to the sands and known only to GOD, shu all these were real people, who lived long ago, I love history, thanku for this ❤b safe GOD BLESS you, really love and appreciate what you do❤
It’s awesome you are keeping these cemeteries and people alive. Thank goodness you are filming these places cause eventually no one will be able to see the writing on the stones. Maybe in the future, people will be referring to your footage which is an amazing legacy for the future generations. ❤❤❤❤
Quintessential antique old graveyard. Absolutely beautiful. I was struck by how young so many women were at death. I wonder about the moments of their lives... Loves and losses...
What an old cemetery! It's perfect for Halloween but still eerily beautiful. I feel like it should be in a spooky movie or something. The fog rolling in just adds to it. Well, after seeing this I'd say meeting adjourned folks. RIP to all ❤💐
Hi Brittan, and I agree with you. I'd love to explore with Ron... He comes across the best places ever....Not to mention stories. Can't wait to see more videos of you and Ron from Arizona....
Great walk, Ron! Love the old New England cemeteries. Visited a couple in New Hampshire last week. Lots of fog. This was a fascinating and rather creepy one! Thanks! 💜
I wonder if Mrs Comfort Bellow was a nurse. Florence Nightingale had formed her first team of nurses before the Cremeon war. Nurses are symbolized by the lantern that the nurses carried at night to assess and attend their patients. I'm sorry you were in danger from living people and their cars
Wow!! That cemetery sure has a spooky atmosphere!! A perfect setting for a Halloween episode!! Thanks for sharing this piece of history with us, Ron!! XXXX 👍💞🤗❤👻
No disrespect intended. I would love to be at those cemeteries at the witching hour with recorders or the Necronomicon, to see if anyone had something to say. Always remember no fear, but very respectful. Stay safe Sir & everyone. Listen to this youngster talking about being old....😂 LOL
Such a sad and lonely cemetery! Thanks Ron ❤ (I have one of them flashlights that cycle through various phases before I can actually get the steady beam. Annoying, but a great light!)
Our family cemetery has headstones that have unfortunately faded over time since it dates back to the early 1700's . Thankfully many years ago a professional was hired to etch the oldest ones before evreything was erased & etchings were put into a port folio for safe keeping.. The family is in the process of getting metal markers made to put in front of or beside of what is left of the existing stones that have become unreadable by using donations from family members. Cemeteries are a unique form of history ,at least I think so and it is unfortunate that so many have been lost to time(and development)!
You treat the departed with such respect. I dont know if you ever cover Long Island NY. I would love to see it. I live in Kansas but grew up on Long Island in Huntington.
Thanks Ron for taking us on such a fitting autumnal walk through the woodland graveyard. Have you read Walter De La Mare's short stories set in old british graveyards,deserted beaches and haunted houses. I think you'd enjoy the atmosphere created.
Ron the crips was where they kept the body’s in the winter. Unfortunately there was alot of damage done by teenagers people volunteers there time to fix the broken stones and mow the lawn and clean it up. Unfortunately Cumberland should be taken care of this historic cemetery
I agree in Australia particularly up north of Perth they have beautiful old pioneer cemeteries that have been very neglected it really makes me sad and angry😢
On the Salem witch trials : What ever happened to the young girls that started it all ? (and were responsible for many deaths). Have tried to look it up, never got very far on information. Interesting cemetery for sure. The fog rolling in was a bit creepy.
Ron, another great video. The colours on those stones are amazing. Loved the developing atmosphere as the video goes on and the fog comes drifting in, spoooky!
Great video Ron …What a great ominous element the fog adds to that type of environment. I was in Boston a few years ago and Rockport and Salem and I couldn’t get enough of the incredible history in the cemeteries …like-minded. Bridget Southern California 😎
Hi Ron.. This is amazing. I never imagined it to be like this. Wanted ti also say.. the fog will move in because of warmer temperature inland. Wait a couple hours and it will diispate.. I lreaned this moving to northern California coast from mountains in Montana. I've grown to really like the quiet during this time of day. Thanks for all the really cool places you take us to this time of year. I loveit!!
I will have to double-check, but I think I have some Whipples in my family tree coming from my maternal grandfather's side. Will edit if I can firm this.
Love this old cemetery Ron. Love these old ones from the 1700,s on. That is so cool how they kept the bodies there in the Winter till Spring when the ground thawed to bury these people. Great video!❤😊
What a beautiful place I'm from Connecticut With these graveyards inspired ghost stories ❤🎉 I don't know if you've been to mystic Connecticut but they have a graveyard by the mystic river by mystic seaport LOL and across overs abandoned mansion. I've been there many times it's my happy place. You'll see a lot of sea captains.
Thank you, Ron. I grew up in the Philly suburbs. The grave yard behind our house had beautiful stones that were enscripted in german. I live in Iowa now and miss seeing these old stones. Townsends just did a great livestream last week on gravestones, if anyone is interested.
I have a ancestor who survived the Salem witch trials, her name was Sarah. She was called a witch because she got pregnant by her second husband (1st husband passed)when she was older. She never conceived in her younger years, Because she was a very mature woman they thought it was witchcraft.. Sarah must have made a deal with the devil to get pregnant. Her husband put his life on the line and petition to spare her life and the unborn and he succeeded.
We found this out about a year ago, she was on my mother’s side of the family tree. I think she was a amazing woman ❤
I am related to Rebecca nurse . She would be my 9th great grandmother . :) my aunt on my mother's side traced our ancestry tree :)
So, her first husband was infertile? Nah, t couldn't possibly have been that. Obviously it was witchcraft. Smh
They knew so little about fertility back then. What a shame for your ancestor and others. Also always thinking it was the Woman's fault if there were no children. Couldn't be the man. 😖
Ooh - fascinating! Thank you for sharing that.

Anyone else think that Ron would have been a brilliant historical teacher his story telling an his voice would keep everyone listening 🎶 😉
Its crazy that the headstones are so thin yet they managed to survive all those years and not broken or vandalized
this was cool! We think one of our ancestors was a Mary Bradbury that was accused of being one of the witches. She ended up getting away from being killed.
Wow what ancestors that dome of you have. These I would love to know more. I must Google same.
I am thankful for the groups that clean the stones with the permission of their families....I appreciate them...Some of my family I didn't know their names until they were cleaned up.

very cool! neat family legacy!!!!!
These old cemeteries are so full of history and so beautiful at the same time. Rhode Island is such a gorgeous state.
I hear Whipple and I think of Mr Whipple and his “please don’t squeeze the charmin.”

Ron i agree, they are a pain!
Grandmother lived on Mendon Rd. Cumberland, RI. Our family loves to cemetery walk.
Great video! The crunching of the leaves underfoot, the fog rolling in, the beautiful red, orange and gold leaves on the graves. Watching thus, I can almost smell October.🍁
So many died so young back then. More sad than creepy. Great video as always though, thanks.

What makes it so beautiful, landscape,old buildings?

Quintessential antique old graveyard. Absolutely beautiful.
I was struck by how young so many women were at death. I wonder about the moments of their lives... Loves and losses...
@@meycoe isn't that just so so sad? Childbirth was fraught with peril, but women bravely did it... birthed and built families. Such bravery.
What an old cemetery! It's perfect for Halloween but still eerily beautiful. I feel like it should be in a spooky movie or something. The fog rolling in just adds to it. Well, after seeing this I'd say meeting adjourned folks. RIP to all ❤💐
Yes I agree....setting for a spooky movie. I was waiting for a zombie to come walking over the hill. lol
This looked like an incredible spot for exploring....great work sir!
Hi Brittan, and I agree with you. I'd love to explore with Ron... He comes across the best places ever....Not to mention stories. Can't wait to see more videos of you and Ron from Arizona....
Hi 👋 Brittan 😃 Have a great Halloween 🎃
Awesome old cemetery. The fog sure was a little creepy for sure.
Great walk, Ron! Love the old New England cemeteries. Visited a couple in New Hampshire last week. Lots of fog. This was a fascinating and rather creepy one! Thanks! 💜
Looks so haunted. I’m just watching this old one that you did now and it seems like a spirit will rise up from the ground at any moment! 😱
I really enjoy when you come to my neck of the woods! I love how you say”Woonsocket”! ❤
I wonder if Mrs Comfort Bellow was a nurse. Florence Nightingale had formed her first team of nurses before the Cremeon war. Nurses are symbolized by the lantern that the nurses carried at night to assess and attend their patients. I'm sorry you were in danger from living people and their cars
Loved that episode. Perfect weather conditions for your visit.
Wow!! That cemetery sure has a spooky atmosphere!! A perfect setting for a Halloween episode!!
Thanks for sharing this piece of history with us, Ron!! XXXX 👍💞🤗❤👻

What a creepy cemetery but it's great to see all of the old graves ,but also so sad for them, since some where young Thanks a Ron
Such a sad and lonely cemetery! Thanks Ron ❤ (I have one of them flashlights that cycle through various phases before I can actually get the steady beam. Annoying, but a great light!)
Creepy looking place. Love all the history and always great looking areas you travel to.
What a gloomy, moody cemetery. Adds to the feeling of being haunted.
If you get caught in the fog, you can use the emergency flash on your flashlight. I have one like yours. Just kidding about the fog. 😊
Those headstones are in remarkable condition considering that are 100+ years old and that they've survived many winters.
My ancestor was Thomas Gardner, founder of Salem… it’s highly possible my family was involved in the trials.
Shhhh, don't tell Ron but that wasn't fog, the ghosts were chasing him and everyone watching🎃
That's absolutely beautiful. Pretty trees. Wow
I love seeing these old cemeteries. They are very interesting 🤔.
Love, love the gloomy, spooky weather there. Thanks for a great video.
Looks spooky, love it Ron!
Our family cemetery has headstones that have unfortunately faded over time since it dates back to the early 1700's .

There is an element of mystery and beauty in that fog rolling in.
Ooohhhh how hauntingly fun!!!! 🧙♀️
Samuel Sewell, one of the judges of the Salem witch trials, was a descendant of my mom.
Run Ron, don't let the fog get you
I'm enjoying these daily field trips... Thank you Ron...

Ron the crips was where they kept the body’s in the winter. Unfortunately there was alot of damage done by teenagers people volunteers there time to fix the broken stones and mow the lawn and clean it up. Unfortunately Cumberland should be taken care of this historic cemetery
Yes that’s what I said, it’s called receiving vaults. I talked about that here
Agree it’s very sad the damage by vandals
I agree in Australia particularly up north of Perth they have beautiful old pioneer cemeteries that have been very neglected it really makes me sad and angry😢
On the Salem witch trials : What ever happened to the young girls that started it all ? (and were responsible for many deaths). Have tried to look it up, never got very far on information. Interesting cemetery for sure. The fog rolling in was a bit creepy.

Creepy but gorgeous place!❤️
Awesome place New England is, so much history! I absolutely love the stone walls! Reminds me of Gettysburg ! ❤
Ron, another great video. The colours on those stones are amazing. Loved the developing atmosphere as the video goes on and the fog comes drifting in, spoooky!
Ron, there are a few of us left who are older than you. Me, for one. 😊
Welcome was a very common name back in that time .
Hey Ron I enjoy your podcast it's fascinating hearing the stories behind the scenes thanks for sharing with us
Great video Ron …What a great ominous element the fog adds to that type of environment. I was in Boston a few years ago and Rockport and Salem and I couldn’t get enough of the incredible history in the cemeteries …like-minded. Bridget

You go to some interesting places! ✌🏼🇺🇸
Hi Ron.. This is amazing. I never imagined it to be like this. Wanted ti also say.. the fog will move in because of warmer temperature inland. Wait a couple hours and it will diispate.. I lreaned this moving to northern California coast from mountains in Montana. I've grown to really like the quiet during this time of day. Thanks for all the really cool places you take us to this time of year. I loveit!!
Yes... The F O G👻👻
Very early morning is my fav time of day to do cemetery walks!! The sunrise casts blazing orange lit sun rays over the monuments at dawn.
Loved this episode ❤️ thanks Ron for all you do
I will have to double-check, but I think I have some Whipples in my family tree coming from my maternal grandfather's side. Will edit if I can firm this.
😊 14:39 reminds me of the song bury me beneath the willow under the weeping willow tree by the carter family
Love this old cemetery Ron. Love these old ones from the 1700,s on. That is so cool how they kept the bodies there in the Winter till Spring when the ground thawed to bury these people. Great video!❤😊
What a beautiful place I'm from Connecticut
With these graveyards inspired ghost stories ❤🎉 I don't know if you've been to mystic Connecticut but they have a graveyard by the mystic river by mystic seaport LOL and across overs abandoned mansion. I've been there many times it's my happy place. You'll see a lot of sea captains.
What an interesting cemetery, although weedy. Those crypts though, nice. Have a great day, Ron! 🙂
Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thank you, Ron. I grew up in the Philly suburbs. The grave yard behind our house had beautiful stones that were enscripted in german. I live in Iowa now and miss seeing these old stones. Townsends just did a great livestream last week on gravestones, if anyone is interested.
Cool and spooky cemetery! 👻 Thanks for making this video!
