    Thank you for sharing this cemetery with us. My husband's gggrandfather is buried in a NC family cemetery. One of the descendants told us that the cemetery used to have a number of full-length flat stones. These were stolen. The man told us that people would turn over the stones and use them for doorsteps. Frankly, I hope anyone who did this suffers from the guilt of the disrespectful and has trouble sleeping. Well ...

      Yes thats true about headstones. Many years ago I looked at a house 4 sale that the front step was a headstone. The realtor told me the story..
      Needless to say I didn't buy the house! And this is in Ohio...

      I think I would have shot that mule. A horse might be spooked, but mules don’t tend that way. The critter would usually have stopped at home. Of course the man might still have been dragged to death, but that mule could never be trusted again.

    Now THIS is history. I never cared much for the Big Events we were forced to memorize in school. It's the lives of everyday folks that fascinate me.

      Not so much local history, but state history called civics. In Okla. It's 9th grade. In Texas, it's 7th grade. Local history is passed on by elders: grandparents, aunts uncles, cousins.

    It's not just granite headstones they take ! At my family's Cemetary in CFL they took the corner of the plots initial marker ! Not once but twice ! My uncle said it was something upwardly mobile did when they built stone entryways to their private drive . If they took enough letters from old country gravesites they could spell their last name . It just blows my mind how selfish some people are . Sad .

    Another great episode with Dan and Scott along - it is a real adventure when there are so many discoveries and stories to be shared. This one is exceptional in that all the stories that Dan shares about the people that lived and died here. It always paints such a picture in time. My imagination always conjures up images of the places and the people as Dan shares the stories. Horrible story about Mr. Winfrey though, what a tragedy. The stones are very interesting, as you said, Robert, in that the carvings are so exact in such rough stone. More theft, hauntings followed, I'd say. I noticed a lot of holly trees. Are hollies purposely planted in cemeteries or naturally occurring? Great job of filming too, clear as can be and great sound. I really enjoyed this episode, Thank you, Robert. 👍👍❣

    No respect for the dead. These people had lives and families. Yet no one seems to take care of the dead. This makes me feel ill when people steal the rocks or tombstones to build something else. About as bad as Temple University in PA during the 50s wanted the land an old cemetery sat on. So they had the county took the land away from the people who were keeping it up and sold it to Temple University. There were 28,000 people or more buried there and it took them 4 years to move the bodies to another place. Then they took all the tombstones and used them as riprap down by the Delaware River. Disgraceful.

    My middle name is Winfrey. There was a divorce and my father wanted another middle name and my late mother said we were relative to the Winfrey family and wanted to give me a name I would be proud to display. I never knew why she gave me such a family name. Thanks for the information.

    There are a few field stones down my driveway that look like the one at 13.53. I had thought they might be headstones.

    Interesting stories. Robert, you try so hard to find and put the pieces together. Never Give Up. It's sad the headstones are missing. Maybe the person who took them and the gate, put them in a different place of remembrance. Nice thought at least.
