#Forehand #cemetery
I just uploaded a photo of Dr H S Norcom on his findagrave memorial
Great photo and I'm glad you did that! Helps him be remembered more.
@@RhettyforHistory No worries
Very peaceful rural cemetery. Great respect to the people who maintain this resting place.
Someone really does do a great job. Thank you for watching!
I love seeing pastures next to graveyards and also small airports. I wish we had more small cemeteries like this here in California. And that’s another nice thing about visiting cemeteries. At times like this you don’t have to worry about running into anyone 😊👍
That is true. I'm sure there are many visiting the big celebrities in CA but otherwise you probably wouldn't see to many in other parts of those cemeteries. They're always peaceful no matter when you go though. Thank you so much for watching my friend.
It’s nice to see this cemetery is taken care of .
Yes it is. Thank you so much for watching!
It's great to see how well-maintained this little burial ground is! Sometimes you can find a sign telling when the annual clean-up or meeting day is. I found one in a little cemetery near me recently. Those clean up days are usually around this time of year.
I have seen signs like what you are talking about. I bet most all of those clean up days are in jeopardy of not happening this year. I'm sure this one is probably maintained by someone near. I would bet they have family in there. Thank you so much for watching.
@@RhettyforHistory Yeah! I was thinking the same thing about all those clean-up days this year.
Enjoyed a stroll down memory lane.
I’m a former Yukonite of Canadian County, OK.
I remember back in the 1970’s, we played in the fields for miles. Myself and friends came out to Foreman and thought how old it was.
Thumbs up! Forehand was badly vandalized by High School kids. 1970s- 1980’s.
It was very mistreated and they had to take tombstones out of it because they were mostly like pieces of rock after they sledge hammered the marble stones and older marble chips, cracks and breaks to nothing especially after 100 years the limit of marble. So there is at least 2x the amount of people buried there , just no tombstones now. Just total misuse, there was trees down, beer cans, campfires in it too.
So time has been kind to Forehand now it’s cleaned.
Also the reason hey closed the road down beside the cemetery is because of building Cimarron
Air Field, Municipal Airport.
More like Private flyers now.
Keep up the good work!
Beautiful, well maintained cemetery. Looked like a spectacular day to be exploring. Thanks for sharing. 🇺🇸🚜👍
It was a beautiful day for sure. Pretty windy but a good to get out. Thank you for watching!
What a beautiful resting place. As you said, you could tell there were a lot of markers that were probably grown over. I cannot imagine the grief of the people in that community losing so many children. I hope you and your family are doing well and staying safe. We are in North Carolina; staying in the house. Thank you for sharing this part of history.
We are all doing well and I'm glad to hear you are as well. We have been doing the same as you other than me doing this one cemetery. It's an interesting one to walk thru. Thank you so much for watching!
Love the ending to hear the winds though the fence.. Great video. God bless you. GO OKLAHOMA OPEN UP!
It is awesome to see things opening up again. I have been enjoying getting out and about. Thank you for watching!
We enjoy your videos Rhetty. You make being stuck at home easier. Be safe getting around. Keep the videos coming.
I'm glad I can help somewhat. Thank you for watching Janice!
Glad you got out for fresh air and a walk about. Excellent maintenance.
It was good to get out a little. Thank you so much for watching!
Thanks Rhetty! So unusual that a cemetery so remote is taken care of so well.
You're welcome. It's always great to see a cemetery well maintained and cared for. Thank you for watching!
I have driven by this cemetery before. I would have stopped had I realized it was this old. great video.
Were you enjoying the back roads? Thank you so much for watching!
@@RhettyforHistory I lived in Canadian county for about 20 years. When I moved out there Mustang had a Western Auto . I don't remember why I would have been near the cemetary so I'll guess because of 66.
So many young people & children 😔 Thank you for another great video. Stay safe & God bless.
Yes there were. Definitely some hard times. Thank you so much for watching!
Lincoln County has plenty of old and maintained cemetery. Forehand family in Meeker, Oklahoma
Lots of history in that County for sure. Thank you for watching!
Not far from me
Thank you for taking us along. Lots of history there...
You're welcome and thank you for watching!
The 100 year old stones that can still be read is what I like.
Yes, me too! Thank you for watching!
I am so glad its being taken care of. Thanks Rhetty. Great video.
I love to see cemeteries cared for. Thank you for watching!
Nice little cemetery and glad you can get out for the fresh air and nice weather.
It was great to get out and away. Can't wait to do it again. Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much Mazel Tov
Thanks Rhetty. Found out yesterday my neighbor passed away on Easter Sunday. I liked her a lot. There was no funeral for her just a very short and unpersonal video of an attempt to bury her in a too small vault according to her son. I promised that I would visit her soon.
That's sad and I'm sorry to hear that. I hate to see that funerals are being done that way. It's happening all over and makes closure very difficult.
Enjoy very much. it is nice to see that some one take care of this. also great looking beard you have. Bennie
Thank you Bennie! I do love to see rural cemeteries maintained.
I was born in Ponca City Oklahoma I love going to Cemeteries
I do too. Thank you for watching!
Love your videos you do such a good job thank you for what you do here WVa so many of our older cemeteries are just forgotten
There are quite a few of those like that here too. I know there are much older ones where you are though. Thank you for watching.
Very nice! Enjoyed the trip around that old cemetery. It's always nice and relaxing to sit back and listen to you reading off the names and dates! Glad you had some agreeable weather so you could get out and enjoy the day!
Valerie
It was good to get out and stretch the legs a little. Thank you so much for watching Valerie!
I love the growth too
I'm glad you do as well. Thank you for watching!
Hi Rhetty, so sad about the 3 children that died within days of each other. I looked them up and came up with okcemeteries.net which gave all names and info on each person buried there. No info on why they passed but in those days, times where very hard there is no telling. Great video, thanks for all you do!
Still interesting to see. Thanks for sharing the link for others. That site has quite a bit of information on a lot of cemeteries here. Thank you for watching!
There is a lot of history there i bet. Always interesting. That is the first time i have seen a plane in over a month. Keep safe.
There sure hasn't been much flying at all. We have a guy near us that does the paramotor. We don't know him we just see him in the air. We haven't seen him in quite some time now. Thank you for watching!
♥️😷thank you for sharing love history and this cemetery is certainly well kept 😷♥️keep safe
Yes it is. I always love to see cemeteries get the care they deserve. Thank you for watcjjng and I hope you stay safe as well.
Beautiful well kept cemetery . Lots of history to be found
Yes there was. I loved these little cemeteries like this. Thank you for watching.
Thank you for doing these videos. The documentation is priceless. In Utah we would go and find old pioneer cemeteries.
I love finding old pioneer cemeteries like that. I need to make a trip to Utah and film sometime. Thank you for watching!
thank you for sharing....kept up nicely...
It really is nice to walk thru rural cemeteries and see them kept up like this. Thank you for watching!
Interesting thanks for sharing. Sad for those kids..
It is sad. Thank you so much for watching Rebecca!
The Dates are historically touching. Safe travels, nice to see you out in the Sunshine.
Thank you for watching and I hope you stay safe as well.
@@RhettyforHistory Thank You
Thanks, Rhetty, for another interesting cemetery. Looks very peaceful but way too many children and infants buried. So sad.
It is sad. It's a reflection of the times. Out away from medical care and since that time we have made huge strides in nutrition, immunizations and healthcare in general. Thank you for watching.
Thanks for sharing! Stay safe😷💗 Really beautiful monuments.
I hope you stay safe as well and thank you for watching!
Thank you for some fresh new content 😊. I know you guys are just like all of us being in lockdown 😊. But I love all the cemeteries you go to. Thank you for all you do. Me and my husband live in Oklahoma City. My hubby’s parents live in Yukon so we are very familiar with Canadian county my husband graduated from Yukon high school in 1993. Keep up the great videos!!!😊
Ahh you are close then. I live in OKC as well but I have a PO box in Yukon. We've been trying to be as careful as possible. Strange times but it was good to get out and away last Saturday. Thank you for watching!
My husband was wondering if you have been to Fort El Reno?
I have. I have a video on the Christmas Guns there. At some point I will revisit though. There is a lot of history there.
Fascinating , thank you! ❤️❤️🌹🌹💋💋
You're welcome and thank you so much for watching!
Nice peaceful video. Such a short life span for many of these settlers.
Yes, you're right about that. It was certainly rough. Thank you for watching.
So many died young. It is often easy to forget how far medical science and public health has advanced in the past century or so.
You're right about that. We have made many advancements. Thank you for watching!
another great video rhett.
Thank you for watching Courtney!
I enjoyed this very much
I'm glad you enjoyed it and thank you for watching!
keep safe my friend.
Thank you for watching and I hope you stay safe as well.
@@RhettyforHistory will do.
I enjoyed this vary much. So interesting, seeing these old graves. Out in no where. Thank you for this video. I would love to see you go to Mansfield Ocklahome. To this little grave yard. It is called lone ceder. Lot of old settlers thir. Some ofy family is thir, the walkers, my Grandmother an Grandfather, an outhers.vary well kept cem. Please try to visit.
Thank you so much for watching. That cemetery you're talking about is in Oklahoma?
Another good one...Thanks....
Thank you John and I appreciate you watching!
Very interesting! So sad that so many babies and young people died. The loss of 3 children in less than a month. So sad!
It is sad. I can't imagine experiencing that especially all within the same month. Thank you so much for watching.
@@RhettyforHistory I can't, either! I think this happened far more than we know. It's very sad!
I believe you are right about that.
I would love to see what you can find out about the Bridgeford Cemetery in Blaine County Ok. North of Watonga. There was an old one room schoolhouse just across the road North of the cemetery. Graves are from early 1800s
Welcome back my friend.!!!
Thank you for watching!
@@RhettyforHistory Stay safe!
Thank you and I hope you stay safe as well.
❤️ little houses built over graves of Native people? Haven’t been through all your vids but looking!
Thank you for watching!
Some of those names and surnames are Czech or Slovak (what used to be CzechoSlovakia before fall of Berlin wall and comunism in Estern Europe). Here in Croatia we have both Czech and Slovak minority so some of those names are familiar to me, acctualy my great grandparents from mother side was immigrants from Czechia.
Thank you for filling us all in on that. Is that what the foreign language was?
@@RhettyforHistory Yes it is, that is Czesh or Slovak language, both languages are pretty similar,ZAR. Is for ZARI and that is july and ČAR. is ČERVEN, that is jun, NAR. is for NARODIL, it mean born on and ZES. is ZESPAL it mean died but more in poetic way, fall in eternal sleep, on the bottom of monument you can see SPI SLADEC it mean Sleep well sweete. That is a child grave 1899-1900. You can see same saying on pic I take on our local cemetery where lot of people with Czesh ancestory are buried and they have maternal languge on their headstones. Intresting, this young woman headston on pic, she was born on same year as that child on your video, only thing she lived a little longer.scontent-vie1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/p720x720/75315970_10206544484246457_5478155078659473408_o.jpg?_nc_cat=103&_nc_sid=07e735&_nc_eui2=AeGZ0m0RH31coC_mjRLqoc3O4oaMdURoD6_ihox1RGgPr2sb92fYmxo1-VRlnMpXv4I&_nc_oc=AQmaq5K2pf4uaDZnJFc0eXlVcQPO8_EqMQ_gdsIWaDm-_CngJX0bOgkLceTfYz9Qf0E&_nc_ht=scontent-vie1-1.xx&_nc_tp=6&oh=b7de85dcd6baaadf371abe70dce39d02&oe=5ECD659E.
There’s 3 National languages in Switzerland French,German,&italian confusing it depends on the canton which language is spoken.
That's interesting and I did not know that. Thank you for filling us in with that information.
Thanks for the great video
Hello Rhetty with this lock down was thinking there is a show based on Cochise is sapose to be true story ,just thought I share is broken arrow 1950thanks for a great video
I'll have to look for that show. I'm not sure if I have seen it or not. Thank you so much for watching!
The show has James Stewart and Debra paget take care
Hi Rhetty done some checking when going to show , movie is youtube
Thanks Joseph! I'll try and find it.
The early Pioneers really had it rough. Most of the younger women I would think, died in childbirth as the doctors were few and far between. Also seems like a quite a few still-born children as well. Such a sad time.
Yes it would have been brought on both. We have made major advancements in healthcare. Specifically nutrition, immunizations as maternity care. Thank you for watching.
please do a video on the whitehorse cemetary ,its west of alva oklahoma,in the middle of nowhere!!
I'll have to look that one up. I have never been to that one. Thanks for suggesting it.
my great great grandfather is there!!
Another great video🙃stay safe,,and how's the puppy?🐩🐕🐕
The puppy is doing great! We will have to do a live and give an update! Thank you for watching!
The cemetery i am taking about is lone ceder. It is in oklahoma Mansfield.
I wish you go to Minnesota and north Dakota old graves
I sure want to go up that way and do some exploring. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Many buried before airplanes even existed. How amazed would they be knowing an airport would be built near them.
A very well keep cemetery thanks for the video Rhett allway interesting 💦💦
It really is a neat little cemetery. Thank you so much for watching!
Seems strange to have a cemetery in the middle of no where. I’m use to seeing them on the outskirts of a town or near a church. But maybe that’s how the farmers, pioneers and settlers did it back in the day. I guess there could if been a small town there at one time. You take care also.
They really settled anywhere they could make their claim. Some areas had more people and towns were started or even little communities. Others just fizzled away over time. Guthrie, which was our state capitol for a little bit, grew to 10,000 people in one day. Other little pockets may have been 50, 100 or even a 1000. Thank you so much for watching!
RhettyforFun Thanks Rhetty.
I love all of your videos. I am in Holland, Michigan. Our Tulip Time was cancelled, it is a big celebration for a week. This is a Dutch settled area on Lake Michigan. Did your state have to cancel any big things.
Thank you Carole! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. That celebration sounds like an interesting one especially with the Dutch and Tulips. We have canceled an arts festival that is pretty big. But one really popular celebration is 89'ers day which is to commemorate April 22nd, 1889 when the land opened for settlement.
How is the new fur baby? And what did you end up naming the new baby? Love your videos.
Cheryll Hamilton oh let’s see your new fur baby ...I love fur babies..rhetty’s fur baby
We will do a live soon and give an update on him.
Thank you for watching! The new fur baby is doing fine. We will go live soon and show home and tell more. Probably tonight.
Love all the videos and history.
Is your family buried in Okla?
My family is all over NYC and a few in south fla
Some of my family is buried in Oklahoma as well as other states. We also have some that have been cremated. Thank you for watching!
Good video thanks for not making it about you like a lot the video I've seen.
Thank you for watching!
when do you open your plane spotting channel Rhet? I subscribe to a few LAX airline videos and big jet London Tom YQR
I wonder how many unmarked graves there were?
I'm sure there are quite a few. Thank you for watching!
There was a typhoid fever epidemic that several there died from
That's interesting to know.
Do you have a face book page? I came across a tombstone in our Erie Cemetery and would love to send it to you.
I do not have one but I do have an Instagram that you could send it thru. Same name as the channel. Thank you for watching!
Can you live video when on the cemetery
I do that sometimes but not too much. I have to be in a big city with good coverage to make that work.
👌💥
Thank you for watching!

Thank you for watching!
Can you even imagine the grief of losing all your children to a single bout of pestilence.
It would be extremely difficult to carry on. Thank you so much for watching.
RhettyforFun I lost my daughter & only child 25 years ago. It absolutely changes you. I can’t imagine losing more!
I Knew Your Latest Videos Were Filmed Last Year which you didnt need to mention that 04 27 20 0630 PM
Does depend on which ones you are talking about. Everything from Lawton, Ft Sill, Kansas, Missouri and Wichita Falls are all this year.
It seems like the 1890s was bad on kids living around there
It was a brought time for sure. Part of the western frontier and pretty harsh. Thank you for watching!
How did you come to this pastime?
Looking thru cemeteries or filming?
@@RhettyforHistory cemeteries.
I enjoy the history and stories that can be found in cemeteries. I also know that each cemetery has something interesting to see and find. Some just happen to have more than others due to so famous or infamous people who may be interred. Many emeteries are beautiful with art and architecture. Some are well visited and cared for and while others are abandoned and overgrown. I've always had an interest in the old west and being in Oklahoma I am in a hotbed for that. I really felt like some of these stories were worth telling and remembering and when I started sharing them then people started wanting to know more.
