Fantastic. Really appreciate you sharing. ❤
do you know the history on these cemeteries? it wound be very interesting to know thank you for the videio
The cemetery is near Minesota Mine. It's also near the Phoenician Altar Stone. Yes, those small individual cemeteries are family plots. You should also visit Eagle River cemetery, Eagle Harbor cemetery and Copper Harbor cemetery.
Is the altar stone on same road? I want to visit my next trip up. thx
So very interesting! A few years ago we stayed at Gogebic State Park. Our camping lot was next to a grave of two trappers. Also on a hill in the Straights State Park is a very old cemetery going back to the 1700’s. There’s a large family plot surrounded by an old wrought iron fence, by the name of Sayles. The largest I’ve ever seen. Thank you for sharing! I will keep this in mind next time we’re headed to the U.P.
This is beautiful. Where is this cemetery in the UP? I missed it if you had said it.
Yes in a village called green
Greetings from up north
There's a Cemetery between Watson and Arnold on co.426 in the UP, the Forest Home Cemetery, with 2 hand-hewn sandstone gravestones off in one corner on their own, marked simply 'unknown'.
Wow!, I'll have to check that out! Ty for the info
@@yooperlanddiy8765 There must be a public record of the cemetery and its exact location but be mindful that while the road is paved its long and uneventful, and the sign is red and white, hand painted and relatively small, it's easy to miss in the cedars. The cemetery is still used by the locals. If you're up there and your hungry the 'Knotty Pine Bar' in Arnold Mi. may still have food but it's been a while since Ive been there. The bar has burned down and has been rebuilt since I was last there, but the old bar was full of nostalgia some of which may have survived to pique your curiosity. Have fun.
That is an awesome cemetery. So peaceful
It was so quiet, I just loved it, nextvyear I'm going to try and use a pencil and paper, to see if I can read them.
@@yooperlanddiy8765 Can't wait!
You should have paused at the markers so we could see the dates and names It would have been much more interesting.
I didn't because then people complain it's to long. And boring.
Liked & Even Shared..... watching now.
Ty brother for sharing it.

That one gagnon is an old name in houghton
And in Lake Linden, Traprock and Mohawk.
One of the best is right next to the campgrounds in Saint Igneous. You used to be able to walk in from the campground but now you have to walk out onto the beach cause they put a fence up.
The stones in box type form look like they are most likely the vault. They make a case to put the coffin in to help seal things up. Over time they start wearing out and they can cave-in or leak.
The separate fencing could be to distinguish family plots, but lore says that it's to keep the living safe from those buried.
I can't find anything about those poles and I've never seen anything like that. I visited quite a few Graves and that's definitely something foreign to me.
That makes total sense to me now, but I am just as confused about the poles, the only thing I can see them fir was maybe if they were a tri pod for holding maybe a large cast iron pot, that maybe they planted flowers in.
Typically, the gated ones do include families, but they were typically well to do and real important to the local town. They helped build it...or financed it, or something.
Why do they put a 🤺 fence around the cemetery????????????? Cause people are dying to get in................ Gotcha 😮😊❤
Sad. After your grandkids no longer care how quickly we’re forgotten
Interesting but it would have been more so if you would have read the dates and names on the stones of the ones you could read. Thanks
Very few were readable, only the newer ones, I think next spring, I'll try the pencil and paper thing, see if it works, I don't like guessing either. I could only conclude that the litte ones were those of children 😞
Very nice cemetery! I also watch a similar program in Ga . They recently showed where a headstone had fallen over . They got equipment and assistance to raise it. They placed a similar triangle of braces to lever the headstone properly and recement with mortar . It's probable that the braces were left until the cement cured .
So they just abandoned this one?, never to return to get it?.. very strange.
@@yooperlanddiy8765 Probably forgot or don't live close by .
@@yooperlanddiy8765 could be that the family died out.
Wow very interesting where exactly is that
its up by rockland.
It's in green, up by ontonagon
@@yooperlanddiy8765 When you say it's in green, what do you mean?
@@jimknarrGreen is a village on M-64 halfway between Silver City and Ontonagon.
@@vmj255 I found it. It's not anywhere near Green though. Just searched for Irish Hollow Cemetery.
