Sometimes when I go to my local cemetery I go to the veterans section and say their names aloud .
It just seems important to say to me , they are not forgotten . I know crazy right ?
B- A no it isn't.. its very touching and sweet
@Victoria Moore I always say a few prayers for them in case no one has prayed for them recently.
No that is not crazy, I will now do the same
No it not ! That is how you're showing respect.
Not crazy at all. It’s lovely and respectful. Thank you for honoring our Veterans.
I was watching this while baby sitting 2 kids & at the end one said,"He forgot his cammra! He's driving off without his cammra!"
They don't miss a trick. I thought I'd share that funny moment.
Albert Haskins
B. 11 08 1843
D. 09 01 1922
Spouse: Amy A. Huss
Albert Haskins served in the 141st IL Infantry, CO K. Albert's grandson applied for and received his grandfather's government headstone but the stone was engraved in error by the company, reflecting the 114th IL rather than the 141st IL. Albert served his country in 1864.
Mongo Community Cemetery
Also known as: Knights of Pythias Cemetery, Mongo North Cemetery, Springfield Township Cemetery
Lagrange County
Indiana, USA
There are 116 known burials there and the cemetery is 94% photographed which means there is more work to be done.
Matt, if you take plain flour & rub it on a headstone, it doesn't hurt the head stone & washes off with rain, then you can see the writings on the head stones much clearer.
When letterings in a headstone are cut into the stone, to bring out the writings of a loved one's headstone, first cover & protect the head stone with newspaper useing tape, leaving just the writing showing. Then where the writing is roll on accupple of lite layers of brown molasses letting the coats dry inbettween coats. This makes the paint around the lettering come off alot easyer.
Then take a can of spray paint (color your choice) & lightly spray accupple of coats on, drying inbettween & don't let the paint run.
When fully dry take a scrapper & rag & gently scrape off the paint leaveing the paint in the lettering. It comes off fairly easy & doesn't hurt the stone.
Then take off the newspaper & use accupple buckets of water & wipe down the headstone. The lettering will very clearly be seen once again & really look nice.
It takes time & effort but you can be proud of the results & your loved ones headstone shows that that person or persons are really being cared for.
My father died in 1976 & his headstone looks brand new the way it turned out & you can clearly read it. (Love ya dad💖)
Thank you so much for the tip.
@@karenmessinger9609 do not ever use flour or molasses or a hard bristled brush to clean a stone. Brush should be similar to toothbrush bristles. Flour and molasses expand when they get wet. You'll never get all of the flour or molasses off because it collects in the crevices and if the stone is porous, it will collect in those "pores" and deteriorate the stone over time. The ONLY products that should be used are Wet & Forget or D2. Never use anything but those products and a soft bristled brush. The stones may look great when you're done cleaning them with those other products, but it WILL deteriorate them over time.
No bleach, vinegar, lemon products, nothing acidic at all. Just D2 or Wet & Forget.
@@irisheyesofbelfast Thank you. I will take your advice & use one of the products you mentioned. I want to do my grandmother's when I make it back to Ore. Can't have her here anymore to love on but I can do it by keeping her stone nice.
love watching you should come over to the uk we have some amazing cemetaries dating back to the Anglo-Saxons maybe even further
I would LOVE to tour the world's cemeteries and burial grounds! 🖤🖤🖤
My grandmother and grandfather are buried in McCrary Cemetery, a little country cemetery in Northwest Missouri, between the towns of Hamilton and Gallatin, MO. Kind of a tough place to reach, you almost need 4wd. And don't even think about it when it's muddy. Anyway, I found it a fascinating place as a kid. Some of the people buried there were born in the 1700's. Early pioneers of Missouri. Most of the headstones are in good shape. I haven't been back there to visit in years, need to make the trip before my time is up.
I really hope you get the chance to!
Very nice find, Matt. That little childs grave with the styro foam marker just pulls at the heart strings. I do hope someone's able to eventually put up a more permenant marker so this little ones memory is preserved. Over all the cemetery is not in too bad shape, at least someone is still mowing and decorating. Thanks for sharing and all you do to bring us these awesome videos, be safe.
They placed rocks to mark graves that are older than headstones, there are a lot of them here in the South where I am.
Another great find. Its a pity they couldn't tidy up the little bits, otherwise a well cared for Cemetery. 🌷🌿🌷
Cute Headstones. It seems others are in the hidden bushes
That was truly great! Thanks for climbing that big hill for us! Amazing how those old gravestones have held up!
HEY GUY !!! I ENJOYED THAT BEAUTY OF AUGUST 11 1882 PINK GRANITE HEADSTONE STRUCTURE . MAN YOU CERTAINLY ARE DOING ALOT OF GRAVEYARD INTEREST . MANY OF MY YOU- TUBE) FRIENDS ARE STARTING TO REFER TO YOU AS "THAT GRAVEYARD/ CEMETARY YOU-TUBE GUY." SOUNDS LIKE YOU'VE GOT YOURSELF A TRAEMARK GENRE STARTED ! HA ! ! THE THING ABOUT IT IS , THAT YOU HAVE BECOME (SO) COMPETENT AND CREDIBLE WITH THE SUBJECT . YOU ARE SUCH A MULTI-TALENTED PRODUCER MATT , AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOUR CHANNEL GROW BEYOND YOUR IMAGININGS . A LONG TIME FAN , iamkevynsmith .
Thanks Matt for this video about the Very Old Hidden Graves and Vault on a Hill | Historic Civil War Vets I really enjoyed it and thanks again God Bless .
As always a beautifully shot video , really captured the atmosphere of that place. Thank you
I enjoy your videos they never disappoint!!!!
What intrigued me most in this adventure, Matt, was again your excellent choice of music, to me you are an artist - in so many ways!!!
I have found old civil war graves but they looked nothing like this this is amazing
Great video Matt, always interesting, where some of these Cemeteries are, in the middle of nowhere sometimes, great job.
I lake the music very nice lake the haircut.
awesome Matt i love old grave yards. the stones are beautiful. amazing they lasted so long.
Thanks for the 💖, love back!
In Tom's River there's a haunted Courthouse from 1850s or so & across the street is a small grave yard. I'd gotten an EVP that said," I can't find me ...headstone."
I thought that odd till I'd found out the town had torn down a church across the street from the Courthouse & they moved headstones but not the bodies to make a road that had cut through the cematary. Makes sence now.
Aw that's so sad. Separating the burials from the tombstones could be disruptive to those resting there. Shame it was done.
If you get word of this comment if you can go to Livingston Tennessee, l love to explore graveyards and there is one off highway 111, the turn is across the road from huddle house restaurant and there are so many civil war graves and people are still putting Confederate flags on some. Something l never saw before were civil war graves that had slabs, laid up against each other like the old civil war tents, a stick with a tarp draped over. The graveyard is on the property of a nice little Methodist church. Families are buried there also and a father and mother buried 5 children, just a couple of yrs, a part in age, so tragic.
Cool old cemetery. Sad that the grounds are not in better shape.
Tamara Figge Your face is gorgeous.
Just found your channel. I was so excited as I love old graveyards and headstones.
🖤
Thank you for sharing with us and all the respect you take when visiting these cemeteries.
One of the cooler places I’ve seen u do. Trees overhead always pose a potential problem.
The head stones that have the shield are union soldiers, confederate soldier head stones do not have the shield but the top of the stone is pointed
I sometimes wonder if overgrown sections like in this cemetery are due to lack of funds from not having recent burials in those sections. Sometimes sadly, employees won't go beyond what they are paid to do, so if the cemetery only has the money to maintain 3/4 of the cemetery, they may make the sad decision to leave some areas to grow over. And employees aren't obligated to pitch in their own money to clear out the growth. I feel I personally would do as much as I could for free or out of pocket to help out the graves to be accessible, but it is just sad to see. Some local cemeteries around me are asking for help with funding to keep some older cemeteries maintained as, they just don't have as many burials anymore.
I would love to visit an old graveyard.this video was great.Thank you.Stay safe.And I would like to help get those graveyards back into shape.
Your hair looks amazing such a charming style suits you very well!
You are one BRAVE DUDE!
Amazing find. I think of the history behind these people and the ones who loved them. Thanks for the video
Very cool cemetery. Can't believe the condition of those stones. Keep Safe ❤Keep Well ❤
I'm curious if you've made a list of where you visited ? This is amazing to see...I saw 12th indiana calvary who I believe was at Wilderness. WOW!
the big granite structure was beautiful, and is called an obelisk? Some of the newer lookingmarkers with old dates may BE new markers, that is true in my family's case. thank you Matt.
I sometimes explore old cemeteries in Georgia. On rare occasions I find 18th-century graves.
1800 in-creditably old Come to England there are graves in my Churchyard that are from 1200..and thy are not the old ones.
At--6:08-- and 6:24-- It looks like flour had been put on the headstone at some point. The flour washes off with rain but see how it brings out the info on the stone?
Love ur vids mate!!! especially when you say maaaaaaaazzzzzzaaaaallllliiiiiiaaammmmzzzzzzz lol
You need to come to England for really old graves!!!!
Great video
Muy lindo el video gracias por compartirlo
Yo e visto muchos de sus vídeos y me han gustado mucho.
"Very Amazing, and Interesting,Thank-You,Great Video!!!"
Have you also traveled to southwestern Washington state? Loads of poineer cemeteries here.
Louisiana has some of the koolest cemeteries NOT in New Orleans LA. Like Donaldsonville, White Castle, Pierre Part, paincourtville... closer to New Orleans are Grenta Cemersry, Westwego Cemetary... (I’m from that area... but live in Washington state now)
Came to your channel via Joe and rob.and I'm glad I did.😘
GAR stands for Grand Army of the Republic! Meaning he was a YANKEE SOLDIER during the Civil War. The GAR was similar to the American Legion immediately after the Civil War. Be glad to help you with your History of graves you find. Myself, I travel the east coast, going there from here in Wisconsin, to photograph Revolutionary War Veteran stones. HINT: Using FLOUR, spreading it over an illegible stone, will bring the Inscription right out so you can read it. :)
I know this cemetery. I live just north of its location in Michigan. There are a couple other small very old ones not far away.
If you're finding obscure graveyards, why can"t you go to the hardware store buy 5 gallons of "Wet and Forget" and a pump sprayer. Dilute the solution to specifications, and spray the stones. "Wet and Forget" was formulated to clean all tombstones/grave markers, even delicate marble, and you don't even to have to touch the stone! It works with the weather elements, I.e., rain, and slowly cleans the stone in 3-6 month"s time with no damage to the stone. Stop talking about "someone doing something." YOU ARE THE SOMEONE! Show how easy cleaning can be. SAVE OLD GRAVEYARDS, they're history written in stone.
I didn't see a vault on the hill
Your doing great brother" keep them awesome vids coming"!!
Another epic video Matt! Thanks for sharing!!!
matt thanks for the vid if you really want to get more info of the grave stones you might what to try to get some etchings simple to do and no damage to the stone thanks again
Thanks!👍👩🏭🕊️❤️
You need to read the names. That is to a way to respect them. If you have trouble reading them, get a flashlight and hold it to the side of the printing and the words with show up. I wish you good luck and doing this and God bless you.
Really interesting thank you for your video.
This is super cool. I love these kinds of videos. Glad I found your channel
The cemetery I take care of has people that fought in the black hawk battle
Beautiful. ❤
I loved this video this is awesome..do you see any graves with pictures ? Even old graves ?..I just love the pictures it makes it so much more personalized
A lot of times I find the headstones with frames but the photos are usually too decayed to make out. In the mausoleums were my greatest photo finds!
Good , but read the names too! Go slower on the markers so we can see a better! Thank you !
Why don't you carry a firm brush so that you can brush off the tombstones to try to read them!
That was cool! Nice job!
ur a real cool cat man =^.^= Thanks for the videos!
Albert Haskins Gov. military grave marker is wrong he was 141st ILL. . inf. He served his country in 1864. His grandson applied for and received his marker
Hey Matt! Sorry for my naivety, but in Australia vaults and mausoleums aren't all that common. At 10.10 you find a vault with two rings. Is this like an underground room that you would walk down into? Sorry, I don't understand the purpose of an underground vault.
Hey Alex, here in Germany a vault is normaly for family burials. Under the plate is a room where is enough space for several coffins. So if a family member past away the plate is lifted the coffin is lowered into the vault and is closed again. Greetings from germany
Excellent job, just wish you'd slow the camera down as you scan over some stones. I find myself freeze framing trying to pick up some details.
Awesome.
Do you ever explore southern Illinois?
I'd like to but I haven't yet!
👍👍👍👍👍👍
I am new to watching your videos and am enjoying them. Have you ever been over to Eastern Cemetery in Louisville, KY? I've heard so much about it. Just curious.
I'll have to check it out when I make it down that way!
When was the baby grave place there ?
Awesome matt loved it
Very cool video!
Loved the video😍
Great vid!
Nice one Matt.
Thanks, Wayne!
Thanks for the interesting video I tapped the bell
Robert Smith Was married to Angeline Huss on 1866. They had to children Albert A. Rand Smith born 1868, Thomas Smith born 1874. Ohio is the broth place.
You are so cool
Hey Matt, awesome video..how far do you travel for these videos? Just wondering and i guess curious...have a awesome day!! Stay safe
would you please tell me.is a person buried in front of the marker or behind-thank you
buddy The body is placed in front of the marker, I believe. Looking to the east.
What part of the country are you in? I knpw you won't say exactly, but the area helps
Hi Matt, love the music but I'm not so sure about the red, it does look like blood which doesn't go well with the whole graveyard genre, sorry. I hope you still love me after that comment lol. There really was a mixture of dates going on there across the whole site of old intertwined with new and a pretty and peaceful location. Thank you. x
Nice :)
What is the graveyard protocol ,I can’t help but want to cut that stuff back .
Depends on the location I believe. Thanks for watching!
kooooooooooooool video
👍🏻❤️❤️👍🏻🙏🏻
Do you ever get poison ivy doing these videos??
I've rubbed up against it by accident hundreds of times and never been affected by it for some reason.
539 Productions oh wow, you’re lucky! I recently found your channel and I can’t stop watching your videos! Keep up the good work!!
slow down my God 😇😌
seems funny to me that there are only immigrant invader graves.....where are the native graves...
You know your videos are interesting but you really need to talk about dates
Your videos are great, but I have a question. Is it possible that your vocabulary is rstricted to the word "actually"?
Slow down a bit
