    I am Portuguese and I can guarantee that this family was not poor. But upper middle class farmers.
    House size, furniture, appliances, clothes, toys and even the simple fact of going to school, poor people were certainly not.

    That is very expensive furniture. Not everyone had television in Europe in the 1950s for a variety of reasons. These people were not poor for the time. There were huge families living in 400 square foot slum apartments in Western Europe until the 1970s!

    At 10:06 you commented that it looked like there were some women’s clothes left in what looked like the fathers room ~ it’s very possible that he just couldn’t part with his wife’s clothing. My dad passed 3 years ago and my mother still can’t part with my fathers clothing. She has even moved to a new home, and she still hung all his clothes up next to hers in the closet.

    Husband and wife work so hard, built this amazing house and live such a great life. It's sad that everything is just abandoned after his death. I'm sure he'd have never thought that.

    I agree with the comment below. This young man (Leslie,I think is his name) shows the utmost respect for the memories of the people who have left their homes abandoned. I like the way he always keeps his voice in a hushed tone, as if he were in a sacred place and how if he does move something to get a better look at it, he always puts it back where it was. I really enjoy seeing the videos the brothers show us.

      True... Also after that family all left, there could have been another family living there. Since the photos were in color, I suspect the photos were from another family. Another family member. Then some of that family took what they wanted out of the cupboards and closets and left. More than likely the house was too big to pay for the upkeep.

The structure here looks sound . Didn’t see any roof collapse or damaged floor boards . No cracks in walls. That man did an excellent job on this beautiful home . Too bad it wasn’t worth anything after he passed . Another video very well done !! Thanks 😊

      @@BrosOfDecay it's probably not people, but time. Rodents or other small animals can do a lot of damage as well. Just as the structure itself is deteriorating so are the things within it. Most people who explore abandoned homes follow the unwritten rule that things are to be left as you found fhen. It's not only morally wrong to take things but many believe that it brings bad luck. At least where I come from. I personally think that the damage appears to be what is expected after 30 plus years. And I do not think that the family was as poor as you say. The home appears to be well built and quite spacious for it's time and the furnishings and clothing are of good quality even if they aren't the best. In those days the average family did not have large entryways and poor families did not have formal dining rooms. The kitchen itself is fairly large. And the washing area that you saw was actually quite sophisticated for a home that lacked indoor plumbing.

      Yes it would be nice if some of these videos were followed up with a little history of the families who lived there. Usually there are places maybe local libraries or somewhere you could get information on the area and the history of those who lived in these towns. I have seen him come across photos, names and other items left behind that would be a good start. It leaves many of us wondering why so many of these people left their personal possessions, houses, land and memories behind.

    This home tore at my heart strings, how it started out as a happy loving couple, then as the years go by, blessed with TWO babies, but then Mommy passes away leaving Daddy to raise his children..(tears)..something tells me he never married again, he still had some of his wife's clothing in the room, some people just can't move on, the love they had for the person they lost was like losing a limb, then trying to function without it, it's hard on a human heart when love started but never seen the ending. Love seems to freeze through time in that first stage. They may say "till death do we part" but for some, that just is not long enough, as it was for my parents :-( R.I.P, he did her justice by devoting his life to the beautiful children she left behind created from their love, they were NOT Poor by any means, they were rich with the one thing money can NEVER buy---->> LOVE!.....this is just my take on it. :-( THUMBS UP!!

    Did nobody else notice. When you were checking out the portable sink, you opened a little box. In that box was a piece of paper. When you unfolded it there was a noise of something landing on the floor (14.32). You missed the old fashioned little key that fell out. It must be importanteif it was hidden. A secret from the Father to his daughters maybe. I think that this is a beautiful house but filled with so much sadness. Are you still in Portugal, can you go back ? 🌿💟💟🌿
