This is a historic Catholic cemetery in north St. Louis, with several notable people buried there. I visit the graves of many of them (see "Chapters"). Part of my "Cemeteries with Markers" series.
As a person from St Louis, I thank you for showing the city in a positive light.
Very interesting. Born in St Louis. But left in 1959 as a child. Have a lot of relatives buried there.
My mom and dad are buried here ❤
Thats heartbreaking that Dread Scott and his wife aren't together
my first job at age 17 was here doing landscaping.
We need to save our historical information and cemetery walkers help
My great grandmother is buried there
I live in clarkston Washington. The Nez Pearce tribe is about 5 miles from my house
Very interesting!
Right outside of Lewiston Idaho
I was born in St. Louis in 1951. I lived in STL for the greater part of my life. I take GREAT pride in that fact. I wish the "tour guide" showed a little more respect.
I don't know what you mean in the last part
@@HistoricallyMarked- Possibly because of the inappropriate giggling at some points of your narration when reading or describing certain monuments like @ 02:40 / 03:35 / 05:05.
My father is buried here.
Harriet has a empty grave because at the time they had to buy 3 graves. Dred Scott had to be buried in the middle of 3 graves because they didn't want to bury him next to a white person.
Thanks for the clarifications, and for watching!
I HATE this cemetery, some crazy hillbilly guy chased me out of this cemetery because he thought I was a devil worshipper because i was wearing a red costume.
Lol. Even KCs founder wanted out🤣...
You forgot Dr. Tom Dooley
Hopefully sometime in the future. Thanks for the suggestion
Calvary is a Catholic cemetery, but it's not exclusive to Catholics.
my dad has to bring a gun to see his parents a calvary
Really? I have been there a bunch of times. It always feels safe.
@@m.h.8914 Yep. I just did Calvary and Bellefontaine...even made it over to the Velodrome and Penrose Park. It felt as safe as any place in STL. Keep your wits and don't be stupid, and you can travel anywhere.
@@jamie49868 I agree. My rule is situational awareness and if it feels wonky, get out. I travel all around the city.
@@m.h.8914 Me too. There is so much to see if you know what you are looking at. I've been walking and exploring all over old N. STL this summer. Fascinating, sad, but fascinating. That said there are places I'll walk at 9am, not too many at 9pm. Situational awareness indeed. Enjoy
@@m.h.8914 Something cool - While walking around Penrose Park and the velodrome, I encountered the Lindenwood bike team practicing. They were cool as heck, and told me there is real racing on Thursday nights. An excuse to get back up there and do a little exploring before the races. GO LINDENWOOD!
