I looked into Private Oliver Havens G/26056 who's grave you found. He was 39 when he died from wounds after The Battle Of Mons/Belgium. He was attached to 3rd Battalion The Buffs (East Kent Regiment). He was born in Waterford, but lived with his wife, Annie Havens, 9 Manson Place, Queens Gate, London. (House still there). His parents bought him home for burial at Temple Michael Church Of Ireland Church Yard. (Only military grave there). Great video, thank you!! 👍
Yes, thank you!! That really puts a human story to the headstone .. it just colours everything so differently ❤ Information is a wonderful thing!! Have a great day🌞
@@j.whiteoak6408 Not a problem!! I collect WW1 Death Plaques so I'm always looking up the lives of WW1 Commonwealth soldiers. Nice to put life back into a name, isn't it? Take care!! 🙂
@@Spartacus45 That would be very interesting - in a sad but very satisfying way for you? I hope that you tell the soldiers' stories!! Do you publish them? Or read them on a podcast? That would be amazing to hear... My own family has a long history of soldiers, many who did not return, and I've been piecing together their known movements after their landings in various theatres of war, and poring over maps to learn the known movements of their regiments etc... I guess you could say I'm trying to find out their individual stories too : ) I managed to track my Grandfather's war grave down to 1 of 43 Unknown Soldier's graves due to the existence of POW camp records of exactly where he'd been when he died - just 2 weeks before VE Day😢. His was a long story of the greatest POW travesties & suffering .on an unprecedentedly barbaric scale 😒💔 I've also managed to track my father's movements throughout WWII, again thanks to the records available. I can make out much of his story - I'm able to get a picture of everything he refused to ever talk his family about.. and I totally understand why he never did.. It was horrific for him & his brothers. Their stories should all be told, one by one! I'm glad you're on the case ❤️

Can’t believe how good the coffins look! They sealed the area well to keep water from getting in! Even the flowers haven’t decayed much. That family made the crypt/mausoleum well! Think that’s one of the best ones you’ve shown!
I love exploring old church yards. Unfortunately, where I live, there are not many abandoned churches or church yards to check out. Access is restricted. In the part of Virginia, where I used to live, there were old cemeteries everywhere, including on people's private land, dating back to when people buried their family members on the land they owned.
Cool old graveyard.. good place for a ghost hunt.. sounded like a phone interfering with your microphone but what was making it do that is the question.. could be just metal's in the soil and rocks and stones etc but it could be something else 😊 great video btw
That bottle in the mausoleum looks like it's still full of whiskey. At first I thought some cemetery worker disposed of their empty bottle there, but at second glace you can see the distinct level of amber liquid in it. I think someone in there sure loved their whiskey.
Beautiful find there. Amazing the numbers of gravestones still standing/leaning I'd bet there are still many under all the brush. The Smyth Mausoleum was spectacular to see inside & out; a strength united is stronger for the glory of God. Thank you so much for doing these excursions.
I think this is a very beautiful and peaceful cemetery. It looks and gives the feeling of being covered in a warm and soft blanket of green. The church gives the protection and blessings these souls are looking for. Thank you for taking us there, it is appreciated and wonderful.
Knights Templars, did ye say? Goodness! There seems to be no end to these amazing hidden gems of cemeteries. Gorgeous ruins of old churches….😮 The mausoleum was stunning inside & out. Great one, GV! 👏💙👏💙 (Are you chewing gum?😂)
No evp’s this time Cathal, but a lot of heavy breathing from you! Lol….and it DID sound like you were chewing gum at one point too! So I don’t know what was going on. Your usually very fit! So perhaps you had a heavy coat on and those wellington boots were hard work 🤣😂🤣 oh Cathal….you are funny , but your forgiven after showing those stunning coffins to us in that mausoleum…so glad there had not been any break ins and vandalism….I dread that nowadays. It’s a shame the grounds were so overgrown and uncared for. I was going to suggest if you carried a pen knife with you, just cut through the ivy stem low down. Know you don’t like pulling the growth from the stone in case you damage it, but the ivy Suckers will do that a anyway, you see how they work themselves into the mortar or actual stone! So just sever at the lowest point and it will die back itself. I’ve been watching an old boy clearing an over grown church yard near where I live, and He was doing that..said he’s always done it or sprayed the base with round up weed killer…but now aware of the beasties and things that live lower down he’s reverted to his old pruning knife. That was an interesting church but I worried bits might fall when you were looking up to where the bell had hung. That looked very unsound now, so lucky the bell had gone! Would have been awful if that had landed on your head! I do hope your both keeping well? And do wish one of you would reply to my request for a post office box, as I’m desperate to send these books I’ve bought especially for you as a gift! Could you just give me the address of your local post office, and if ok with them I will send there for you…not huge parcel, but it’s sad I can’t give you my special gifts! ☹️😢 Love and light, Helen 🙋♀️xx
Nice work there , Some very Cool old Graves, and what an Awesome peek inside the Mausoleum 👍 I wonder if Mr Dyson takes a dip occasionally in the lake ? lol 😅👍
It's so sad that the cemetery is left to grow up and ole graves not kept up, but gonna just be lost in time, and people forgotten. Beautiful ole church.. hey from South Carolina USA.. thanks for sharing
What an overcrowded and mostly neglected graveyard! Thank you for your nice commentary. It must be so peaceful there with the sound of the birds and beautiful lake. How nice it would be to row in a boat out on the lake at one with nature. Stay safe and keep well. Zora in Australia.
Why was the East Kent regiment called the Buffs? The Buffs (Royal East Kent Regiment) | National Army Museum The 3rd Regiment received its nickname of 'The Buffs' because it had been issued with buff coats when it first served abroad in the Low Countries. It was later given buff-coloured uniform facings (collar, lapels and cuffs) and waistcoats to distinguish itself from those of other regiments.
Thanks for another great video. Beautiful day and lovely views stand in stark contrast to some of the tragedy we see in these old graveyards. The daughter, Helena Anna Mary Moore dying at such a young age (25 yrs) having never been married. Very sad. The family probably never imagined that the church would one day be abandoned and therefore the graveyard not maintained when they erected their grand mausoleum. On a positive note, it was nice to see the coffins in very good condition and that no grave robbers had broken into the coffins! May they rest in peace. .
The Buffs (Royal East Kent Regiment), formerly the 3rd Regiment of Foot, was a line infantry regiment of the British Army traditionally raised in the English county of Kent and garrisoned at Canterbury. It had a history dating back to 1572 and was one of the oldest regiments in the British Army, being third in order of precedence (ranked as the 3rd Regiment of the line). The regiment provided distinguished service over a period of almost four hundred years accumulating one hundred and sixteen battle honours. In 1881, under the Childers Reforms, it was known as the Buffs (East Kent Regiment) and later, on 3 June 1935, was renamed the Buffs (Royal East Kent Regiment).
Hey G.V. and Sue that was a nice cemetery!!! You've had some beautiful days to explore. I have a Dyson vacuum...it really sucks 🤣🤣🤣🦆🦆🦆 needs some repair work. Have a Blessed Day or Night ....God Bless You Both!!! I Appreciate Your videos!!!
wow! such a lovely old cemetery! another great video! Thanks Grave Visitation for my 1month free membership! I look forward to seeing the members only content! Sending best wishes to you and serenity Sue from Canada 🇨🇦♥️🇮🇪♥️
Can't comment, GV. It won't provide me with the comment box. I was going to say, that's NOT static, it's electroplasm!! Lol (ectoplasm) when I can make a comment in the usual way, I'll make a donation 😊
What a mysterious, yet interesting place!! At least someone is trying to keep the grass and weeds in control!! Love the castle and church ruins!! Thanks for sharing this historic place with us, GV!! You and Sue are THE BEST!! XXXX ❤💕💖💞👏👍🤗
Top number GV amazing how the coffins have stayed in good condition except one ,still very interesting video and the mansion as well. Safe travels to you both,god bless take care,🙏🙏👋👋👏👏👍🇦🇺
It looks very creepy in that grave yard thanks for sharing nice to see that you have bought sue along with you wow they look really good them coffins hope they all are resting in peace take care 👍
Another great video loved the coffins the dyson hoovers are rubbish I got one after 6 minutes the battery from a full charge was flat so I got my money back and I just use my henry now miles better keep up the good work and stay safe 👍
Great Video thanks for making it the old lead line coffin in that crypt some look like new good to see no vandalism. I also seen Scaffing up must be working on that house as well good to see it being restored
I just love the way y'all save the best for last 😂.. 🤔 just a thought as I am Irish blood, it would be neat to accidently find ancestors from long ago just by watching you guys. That Ray of sunlight 😮 so beautiful shinning among the tombs. Monchet 🤔 on the coffin. That's so neat, .... Ok hold on lets set and go fishing 😂 another great video guys . Y'all are my favorite folk to go grave walking 🤗. Looking forward to the next adventure.
Great explore, those coffins looked almost new, just needed a little dusting! I go walking round old graveyards too, people have told me it's morbid but I don't feel that at all, I find them beautiful, so interesting and such peaceful places. Glad I found you and loving watching your content 🥰
I love the groomed yards, but I really like the ones that are overgrown too. Almost more peaceful, in my opinion. I guess some would say they are forgotten, but I think left in peace.. I guess everything is how we view it. I strained my ears trying to hear an evp & I didn't, but the static was interesting! If I had headphones, I would bet there are a few. Also, A trick of the light maybe but, when you first looked in the mausoleum, I could swear I saw a woman by the far left coffin. It was just for a second. Probably the shadows with the sun. I would love to go there. Thank you both for sharing with us! Love you's.
What a cool find GV , in a beautiful serene spot , there was at least one more coffin that i saw against the wall as you peeked in breifly so could of been about7 or 8 of them in there all resting together , some of the coffins so preserved . I could spend hours there roaming around imagining what the place looked like once , thanks for sharing
The video was packed full of interest on so many levels,history and facts I imagine the church was a real beauty in its day, the small stones in the rambling overgrowth was something to behold and well to do area commiserate with the mansion across the water, thanks for the pronunciation. Of the place name I always pronounced as You. all ...a special video ,thoroughly enjoyed!!!
Amazing to see how well those coffins held up. Beautiful place! Also, at around the 15 minute mark, it sounds like a women's voice saying something (not Sue's). The voice continues for a bit. I can't make out what is said, unfortunately. Thank you for showing us this gorgeous place! God bless
I enjoy your videos. It reminds me of all my relatives who had irish brogues. I miss listening to their stories and all the celebrations with the best fiddle players ever😪. Love from Connecticut❤
What a fantastic view of the inside of the belfry! I just looked up Ballynatray House and it’s gorgeous! It can be rented as a wedding venue. They have holiday cottages to rent, too.
Great video guys! Thanks! I counted 7 possibly 8 coffins, and the ones that survive the best are on blocks or other devices to lift them off the ground. I suspect the one at the top left is the remains of a lead coffin that may have been on the floor and deteriorated. Did you notice the memoriam for Catherine Fleming? She passed 2015, and she erected the other memorial to what looks to be past family members. But I can't read the very bottom of the stone for her, but it may be something to do with Templemichael?
It's a shame so many of these cemeteries are left to be taken over by nature. As a young girl in the mid-1950's, we were visiting family friends. Down the street from their house was a huge Catholic cemetery. We watched as bulldozers and steam shovels were digging up the graves, removing them to put in a four-lane highway. Those graves were allegedly all moved somewhere else, but that scene stayed with me all these years. It was at that moment, I decided that I was not going to buried in the ground, so the city could come along and move my bones 100 years later to put in a highway, a shopping mall, etc.
This was in Rochester, New York. This State hasn't had a soul in many years. Nothing is sacred, because these types of projects are all about putting money in the pockets of public officials, and their big donors...even back then. And it still goes on today.
You are right. My body will be cremated some day and the remains will be buried next to an old tree in a "Friedwald" which is kind of a cemetery where only urns are allowed to be buried. Hopefully there won't be any highways built... Best wishes🎉 Karin from Germany
Loved the inside of that masoleum Cathal. It is still in very good and dry condition. No mold or mildew growing - just in perfect condition. The little casket in the upper right hand corner looked like that of a wee child. GREAT FIND! Really loved this even if it is overgrown and headstones hard to read. I appreciated it. Thank you. As an aside, I own a Dyson called the Animal. Great for dog hair. Couldn't find a better one! Take care.
Hi Cathal Mark from West Bend Wisconsin very beautiful scenery in that cemetery when you were viewing the inside of the mausoleum those were well preserved did you see the liquor bottle in the corner.
Another VERY INTERESTING Grave Yard Visit. I thought I got a glimpse of a Grave Stone showing 2013 as the burial date?. I was a bit surprised by a few not so old Graves in such an Ancient Grave Yard. Indeed as noted by a few others, the Coffins in the Mausoleum were in Amazing Condition all things considered.
@@GraveVisitations I forwarded this to my sister in law she has ancestors from that area!!! The history of the now Dyson home and to know the original owners are resting just across the way! I loved your video!
Hi GV, missed the premiere, but have now watched this twice. What I really don't understand is why all this history is left to rot. The stones themselves would tell an amazing tale if they were readable and the church; can you imagine all that went on inside.
You should bring a weed-eater/ trimmer with you 🌀 Love the walk through videos. I cut grass in a cemetery in the summers whilst in college. Oldest graves were from the 19th century (Michigan USA).
I looked into Private Oliver Havens G/26056 who's grave you found.
He was 39 when he died from wounds after The Battle Of Mons/Belgium.
He was attached to 3rd Battalion The Buffs (East Kent Regiment).
He was born in Waterford, but lived with his wife, Annie Havens, 9 Manson Place, Queens Gate, London. (House still there).

Very interesting old grave yard. A little spooky looking. I can’t believe how well preserved those coffins were. Great video. Thanks GV💕
It was very dry and well ventilated. Wood caskets can hold up....hope they do

Definitely not from this world 😱
Microphone sounds like the Geiger Counter we have at work!
It does sound like a repeater of some description . But it's not 3G anymore so weird and worth an investigation.
That bottle in the mausoleum looks like it's still full of whiskey. At first I thought some cemetery worker disposed of their empty bottle there, but at second glace you can see the distinct level of amber liquid in it. I think someone in there sure loved their whiskey.
I'll have to look again thank you
It does appear something might be in it

What a beautiful cemetery. It's sad To see that nobody takes care of it God bless the two of you 😢
Just gorgeous ❤😊 thanx Guys❤😊
The overgrowth is what makes it mysterious 😊 wish I could go on your visitations with you and Sue
What a fantastic view of the inside of the belfry! I just looked up Ballynatray House and it’s gorgeous! It can be rented as a wedding venue. They have holiday cottages to rent, too.
Walsh family stone is in great condition. Looks new. Perhaps a family member recently cleaned it as well as the Savage stone. Looks beautiful.
Great video guys! Thanks!
I counted 7 possibly 8 coffins, and the ones that survive the best are on blocks or other devices to lift them off the ground.
I suspect the one at the top left is the remains of a lead coffin that may have been on the floor and deteriorated.
Did you notice the memoriam for Catherine Fleming? She passed 2015, and she erected the other memorial to what looks to be past family members. But I can't read the very bottom of the stone for her, but it may be something to do with Templemichael?
It's a shame so many of these cemeteries are left to be taken over by nature. As a young girl in the mid-1950's, we were visiting family friends. Down the street from their house was a huge Catholic cemetery. We watched as bulldozers and steam shovels were digging up the graves, removing them to put in a four-lane highway. Those graves were allegedly all moved somewhere else, but that scene stayed with me all these years. It was at that moment, I decided that I was not going to buried in the ground, so the city could come along and move my bones 100 years later to put in a highway, a shopping mall, etc.
Wow that sounds awful they did that 😕 it should not be disturbed
This was in Rochester, New York. This State hasn't had a soul in many years. Nothing is sacred, because these types of projects are all about putting money in the pockets of public officials, and their big donors...even back then. And it still goes on today.
You are right. My body will be cremated some day and the remains will be buried next to an old tree in a "Friedwald" which is kind of a cemetery where only urns are allowed to be buried. Hopefully there won't be any highways built...
Best wishes🎉

The preservation of the coffins could be due to the climate in that area and how well the water run off was drained away from the mausoleum itself.
Loved the inside of that masoleum Cathal. It is still in very good and dry condition. No mold or mildew growing - just in perfect condition. The little casket in the upper right hand corner looked like that of a wee child. GREAT FIND! Really loved this even if it is overgrown and headstones hard to read. I appreciated it. Thank you. As an aside, I own a Dyson called the Animal. Great for dog hair. Couldn't find a better one! Take care.
Hi Cathal Mark from West Bend Wisconsin very beautiful scenery in that cemetery when you were viewing the inside of the mausoleum those were well preserved did you see the liquor bottle in the corner.
Left by a family member perhaps?
Your write totally agree Cathal ❤love you guys
Another VERY INTERESTING Grave Yard Visit. I thought I got a glimpse of a Grave Stone showing 2013 as the burial date?. I was a bit surprised by a few not so old Graves in such an Ancient Grave Yard. Indeed as noted by a few others, the Coffins in the Mausoleum were in Amazing Condition all things considered.
Another great film
Calling a Dyson a Hoover is like calling a Coke a Pepsi.
Definitely someone trying to make contact with you. It also sounds like a voice as you went into the old church. Loved the video as always.
Thanks Sheila 👍
Shame they left it to get overgrown..but still beautiful..Great shots of the coffins in that Mausoleum..Thanks GV sending you love from London 😘
Thanks Maureen hope you are well
Loved the video well taking care of graveyard be safe
A. Big. Thums up.
Always interesting. cheers from Foxfiles-777
Thank you for the amazing tour!!! Such history. I hope a group comes together to repair this graveyard. It's an important part of history ❤
I hope so too! It is beautiful
@@GraveVisitations I forwarded this to my sister in law she has ancestors from that area!!! The history of the now Dyson home and to know the original owners are resting just across the way! I loved your video!
8:32 possible an EVP? I can't make out what it's saying..can you?
I'll have to listen again
Beautiful. Thank you.
This looks another wonderful place❤
A nice interesting one.😊
I think a bit of spirit communication! Beautiful graveyard and lovely epitaphs. Thanks for the tour.
Fascinating history thank you 😊
Hi GV, missed the premiere, but have now watched this twice. What I really don't understand is why all this history is left to rot. The stones themselves would tell an amazing tale if they were readable and the church; can you imagine all that went on inside.
Hi thank you for watching, maybe mr Dyson will clean it up
Absolutely loved this entire video. Thanks for sharing ❤
You should bring a weed-eater/ trimmer with you 🌀 Love the walk through videos. I cut grass in a cemetery in the summers whilst in college. Oldest graves were from the 19th century (Michigan USA).
We wouldn't have the time to many places to be otherwise I'd never get any videos done ha
@@GraveVisitations I get it. There's just that nagging screaming voice in my head wanting to prune and tidy up the cemeteries.
