    Thanks for your perseverance, loved the memorial stones. And woman I'm going to say this because you seem to be a responsible, sane human...a small pistol in your pocket, or bear spray would be advisable. I visit many cemeteries in the middle of nowhere and have learned my lesson. Love your videos and hope to get to that part of the Appalachians.

    My cousin started doing his genealogy for our family. When he had a hard time finding some of the older Graves, he started going out to 'Find a Grave' and puting the GPS and photos of the Grave. He has been doing this for several years and now he built up his Family's Tree. So far he is back to the 1700's and has even gone to Germany to find the really old ancestors and met our their living decendants from that branch of the family.

    Very interesting video 📹, thank you, Heather. This is the first time, I have heard of someone being shot in a cemetery. It was probably a once-in-a-million-years situation; Like the sheriff said, Ben was in the wrong place at the wrong time. If economic conditions in this country get any worse, you might see people getting desperate 🤔 and doing stupid, desperate things. If it gets to that point in Kentucky or West Virginia, you may want to consider having Leo go with you, when filming a video. Thank you again Heather, you did a very fine job with this video. Take care.

    A very sad ending to a good man, Miss Heather you should have taken Leo's cousin to help you find a grave. You could have had the video done in less than 15 minutes. And that is kind of dangerous leave in your car running and the door open considering the mustang is in the top 10 cars to be stolen in the United States each year, considering the remoteness of some of the videos you and your husband do you should get you a concealed carry permit, then you would never be alone carrying a Glock, I've always had the philosophy it is much better to have it then never have to use it and then that one in thousand times that you need it and you do not have it, a little side note, ben Hatfield was the president of sago mine when they had the disaster, and from what I understand if the other videos are correct, one of the few survivors out of sago mine of the alleged twelve survivors where they had the big mix-up at was Randall McCoy, and supposedly the guy that was charged with shooting ben Hatfield to death, was the grandson of one of the fatality of the sago mine disaster, isn't it ironic how people can cross in the history of tragic events😢,
