I love going to cemeteries Jay. Like you said it's peaceful and I like to see the headstones and wonder how the people were and who they were it's pretty interesting to me
In Tom's River, New Jersey across the street from the Court House there used to be a big church & a large grave yard, now only a few headstones remain.
In board daylight I got a clear EVP of a distressed Irish woman stateing,"I can't find me headstone...Where's me headstone?"
I found out later that a company was paid to relocate headstones & bodies for the new road going in. I think to save money maybe they only moved the headstones.
I like to see the date on cemeteries
Our side have small British time cemetere i think ww1 time graves there.near cemetere have clean water streams in summer time i went there for bathing and then see the old graves alot of tall trees there.
You said that it was one year! !!
A beautiful cemetery that's is taken care of. So much history that is unknown to most. I love the history in the stones. Thank you for sharing this, its awesome!
the stones with just a name and no date are family plot names the stones behind or infront of with dates are the family member buried there. here is a piece of interesting info, back in the late 1700s gravestones were carved by hand. the stone mason charged by the letter, so engraving a stone could be quite expensive, a lot of family opted to use abbreviation. the shape of stones were significant to what the family believed at the time of death. for instance some people believed that the tall monuments like the one you showed here the 20 footer would give the soul a direct path way to heaven. cherubs, small angels and lambs were typical for children's graves. also since Pennsylvania was mostly settled by Germans/ Pennsylvania Dutch you will sometimes come across stones engraved in german. also older stones 1600/1700 were sometimes placed at the foot of a grave as opposed to the head. The engraving in that case would be on the back side of a grave. also in that time period it was common for cemeteries to be used almost like a park people would have picnics in them. in the early 1600 you could hire professional mourners to come to your funeral. it was believed the more mornors you had the higher social status in the community you were. .. but I am ramballing you probably can tell cemeteries are my thing. I think they are so peaceful and beautiful. I actually live by a cemetary. I know I'm kinda of weird. LOL
💙
Very interesting info. Don't ever feel your are just rambling on and please continue to share what info you have . Most of us ( especially myself ) enjoy learning and hearing about things like that. Thank you .
You are not weird, I myself am very interested in the history and uses of symbols on headstones and other funerary art.
Many times in my life, I have lived very close to cemeteries . my mother always said ... No one in a cemetery can hurt you .its the guy walking down the street ,you have to watch out for lol . she also said NEVER. Take anything from a grave or even a cemetery or you will be bringing something very precious back to that cemetery . . it is sacred ground & should always be respected
Beautiful cemetery, i really liked the one flanked by the two trees and the one that looked like the castle just beautiful, thanks for the tour. I agree that for me walking through a cemetery is very peaceful.
I might be wrong but I think the large headstone type of stone and no date is the stone that identifies who owns that plot of land .
That is a beautiful cemetery .
I wonder if this level of stone craftsmanship seen in some of this monuments could be replicated today.
Yes, absolutely by sculptors and artisans but the cost is unfathomable.
My step dad died at the end of March, my mother almost to the date of his death died 4 months latter.
If a couple has been married for 60 years or more & die shortly after the other they can be buried in a double coffin holding hands.
Its a Thunderbird jp thats the car on the grave stone my friend....
Ah ok. Thanks
I thought so. Thanks.
Yes, I thought it was a Thunderbird also. My best friend’s Mom loved Thunderbirds.
Let's have a moment of silence for the 'losers' who un-subbed to Jay's channel...Time's up! Now onto another Kool JP video🤗🖒
😁
Yay!
It's their loss! 😊
@@JPVideos81 I thought that was funny.
@@Rebecca_Wilson_in_Texas Yay Rebecca!! So true what Jay said.
Those in Christ will be raised incorruptible. Truth on that headstone. God’s kingdom will come and be established on this earth and Christ will reign forever.
In conclusion, I just wonder how many truly walked and then died in Christ. Repent and believe because we are living at the end of the age.
The people buried together in the pyramid died in a Lackawanna train accident in Gibson.
Oh wow. Thank you
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corning_train_wreck
Does the pyramid design have any significance, or is that just what someone came up with?
@@JPVideos81 check out The Old North Burial Ground in Warren & Bristol RI. Also, the Moravian Cemetery in Staten island NY.
@@JPVideos81 doors are copper due to the patina.
My whole family is buried in the next cemetery up the line from there. St michaels
Wow, what a beautiful cemetary. Even in death, people stay stylish... (Well, for those who can afford it tho...)
Death is the great equalizer.
Sure some have fancy looking monuments but in time everything crumbles away.
Our souls leave our bodies and the material worldly 'goods' no longer matter.
20:17- Might be a Thunderbird.
In N.J. there's a shiney grant stone in the shape of a light bulb because the man was an election.
A man promised his brother a car but the brother died shortly before getting his car so the brother had a car built out of granet.
There was one of a wheel chair & a young boy, beauitful smiling face reaching upwards standing leaving his wheel chair all made of stone and bits of metal covered in mostly stone.
Another one that stands out from my cematary visits was of a doll house. You could look through the thick windows & see some furniture. Stated on the monument that the little girl finelly got her doll house.
What a beautiful and peaceful place. Some pretty amazing monuments as well. Most of my family are buried in a small cemetery in Michigan on a hill, with trees, surrounded by Amish farms. Very serene. I live in Wisconsin now and our local cemetery has quite a few solar stake lights in it - I didn't see those here, but maybe I missed them? I liked seeing the pumpkins set up on some plots and the jack o'lantern cut-outs with scarecrows - it tells me that family members have visited recently, and maybe their loved ones enjoyed autumn and Halloween. Cemeteries are comforting places to focus our thoughts and grief, but I believe that our loved ones are not there. I believe they are with us always, and in Heaven. Thanks for sharing this video, JP - it was so beautiful and relaxing.
Glad you enjoyed it
Life is short...thanks 4 sharing this beautiful place😊🙌
My pleasure
Copper .is the only metal I know of that turns turquoise green when weathered
I bet it looks fantastic with the snow on the trees and on the ground that would be another cool video
Yeah, maybe ill return
😇💙 LOL 🤭 Lets have a moment of silence, for those who unsubscribed to my channel, OK That's enough.🤭 Now back to the video.🤗
😁
The stone with the doves was beautiful.
My friends think I'm nuts, but they dont see the beauty in cemetaries. I love them! The history, the peace, the artwork, it's all amazing. Thank you for sharing this video, I absolutely loved it.
They are missing out
I liked the video very interesting buildings
Why on earth would anyone unsubscribe to your channel? Well, if they do, it's their loss. I love your videos. Thank you for sharing your explores, and the family fun stuff that you, lily, and Jill have been doing. Be safe.
Great video of the cemetery. The cool doors are iron.
wow what an amazing place some of those grave site were incredible what a tribute to those gone before us
The ones with no dates is a plot section ..like a family plot
Thanks
Oh - and I almost forgot - I loved seeing Mr. Woodchuckle :-)
😊
I believe the site with the alter is for priest's or clergy from a church linked to that cemetery
Coming to you from Canton, PA. Hi JP! Love being a part of your family JP! I've been here with you & your family a little over a year now. Maybe more. I lost track of time. So easy to do. But I love your videos, so keep them coming !
Thanks for joining us debra
Very very rich cemetery
I remember when my mom passed away..I was sad for my Dad..he slipped into a deep depression..n passed six yrs after.n yes they are together in paradise with our heavenly Father.
Very peaceful & so much history ! Lots of important people from the past !
I have always found cemeteries so interesting. This one is beautiful. ☺
The 'Mecca' site was phenomenal.
I don't believe I have never seen so many seasonal decorations in a cemetary .... nice 🎃
Omg thats beautiful, looks like a church
I went to school and was good friends with Carissa Dart.
Moment of silence had me busting a gut. Their loss as you have family fun content (and many options of things to watch so never a dull moment). Thanks for all your work!
Gotta have fun with the haters
What an awesome place 🥰 I have always been fascinated with old cemeteries...there was one just down the road from where my mom grew up and a couple more in and around Hardeman County TN. I used to run the backroads in TN. when I lived there and found quite a few old cemeteries that way. I loved exploring them and trying to read the dates on the headstones 🪦💗
Thanks for this...what an amazing video of the crypts and the headstones...A very serene and peaceful place 😊 Blessed be and stay safe 🙏
What's pretty cool is that you can go onto Findagrave.com and a lot of the graves have the obituaries on them, so you can get a sense for the people who are buried there. Also, the altar area/plot is a catholic plot. The locked chamber would hold the eucharist for a priest to celebrate the mass on the altar. The pedestal next to the altar would be for someone to give the readings or for the homily to be delivered. It's basically a mini outdoor catholic church.
Ty
Jay I wouldn't leave you dude. Love your channel
36:48 That one is cool. I love the four pillars and the nice sharp edges. My favorite.
nice video. the fact that it is kept up well is wonderful. Lots of cemeteries I have seen are dilapidated and overgrown.
My favorite is the family plot under the trees.
Mecca and Wolf were very beautiful. So many were. Very sad the children 11, 9 .My granddaughter passed away at only 2 months so children are always emotional, I’m sure for everyone.This was very interesting. Old cemeteries tell so many stories.The one with the guitar was a very nice tribute to whoever played . Miller was unbelievable.The way it was laid out inside so thoughtful .Life is always way to short. Thank you JP.
Hey Jay, as cemetery walker I can give some insight, on markers the giant stone with the family's name is the headstone, the smaller ones with a person name on them, is a foot stone. Most of the graves now are not done that way because it expensive to hand mow around those headstones. I have good friend that mows the little local cemetery. The above ground markers takes hours to mow around and you have to be ever so careful not to ding them with the mower. Some of the markers are so ornate and beautiful. I have a friend who passed, his marker is the rear end of a '57 chevy carved in stone. What it cost I have no idea, but his wife had to get special allowance to have it placed. Thanks for taking us with you.
Thanks for letting me know
Well that's where a gas powered weed whacker is used..no dinging..or chipping..
@@JPVideos81 my background is Art History with a focus in Sculpture. Any questions, send them my way as I may be able to help.
I love your videos and your beautiful family! I wouldn't have the 💛 to unsubscribe! Why subscribe in the 1st place...?? Btw another great video!!
Lots of people go to the local cemetery in my area as well to walk. I enjoy looking at all the tombstones and seeing how old people were when they passed away. I also like the ones with pictures on them. For me, it reminds me to kind of connect with the person. To know that they were once on this earth. I want my picture on my tombstone when I pass.
Very nice video and photo montage. Yes a vault is what you place the casket in.
What a beautiful cemetery. So peaceful. The trees are gorgeous
And may the unsubscribers not Rest in Peace 💐
☠
WHEN YOU SEE moisture on the inside of the mosuleum. the you have a serious issue.
Probably just bad ventilation.
I've always loved walking through off beaten path cemeteries , My kids and I do clean up on the ones no one visits or not alive anymore. what beautiful place thanks for the tour. you should visit Ft. Donaldson it's haunted, and the battlefield cemetery .
I think the stones with just the last names denote an area for that family.
The first names and dates were probably on the foot stones (is that what they're called?) which are usually small and flat and could've been buried by grass over time.
@@amberdawn2601 yes, I think that's what they are called.
Wow, love this video, Brilliant mausoleums and love the pyrimid... Thank you for this video, Have subscribed lol,, nice work
Thanks so much
Maybe copper doors with the green patina
Yeah. Definitely copper or bronze.
i didn't shede a tear when my finly kicked the bucket
Those tall, tapered ones are called obelisks.
Miller was my favorite. But I also loved all the beautiful doors. This place is very beautiful, I live a couple blocks from a really old cemetery with graves from the 1800s. This reminds me of it, but the one I live near is much much smaller and more intimate. I find cemeteries very peaceful too. Thanks for this video!
Big or small, they are beautiful in their own way.
The Miller Vault is my favorite too. They had it open the other day. There was a bottle of red wine and 2 wine goblets full of wine! The family photos with names and dates are there on a white and black swirled marble tile. In this video, they have a black curtain in front of it. It was so cool that I had to take a few pics!
Beautiful cemetery, may they all rest in peace. 💖
So peaceful... . I've never seen a cemetery this large or with so many mausoleums and crypts... amazing .You did a beautiful job documenting this beautiful place.
The Miller, i thought it coulld be Miller beer.....thank you very very much for this video JP. It is so beautiful
You're welcome
Watch out for the night of the living dead zombies Jay. Reminds me of that movie
"I'm comming to get you Barbara."
The house filmed in that movie no longer stands, was torn down. Sad.
Hello, I’m still a Fan of your channel. Keep doing your Thang!
Family plots. Family name on main then dates on singles with dates as they died.
They knew to build and honor the dead.
Castle gate with turrets
1924 not sure there would be a vault
I saw some flat copper collor rimmed like the VFW put on Dads.
I agree that Mecca is beautiful.
Receiving is for when there is a delay in having the funeral, they keep the bodies there. Till the funeral can be done.
Thanks for sharing
Beautiful cemetary! Loved watching it,thank you JP!!
Hi JP, Tamara is correct about the Zimmers (pyramid stone). They owned a furniture store in Scranton and were killed on a business/vacation train trip, somewhere near upstate New York. I'm not sure if it was Gibson or not. There was also a young woman killed in the same accident who is buried in Forest Hill Cemetery, which is located just below the Dunmore Cemetery. There is also a Jewish cemetery that is located behind the Dunmore one. The name of the young woman escapes me at this moment, but if you drive into Forest Hill her stone is partway in and it has a statue of a young girl sitting on a bench. The statue is an image of that girl. I believe she may have been about 19 at the time. I've been to Dunmore Cemetery many times and I've taken the tour several times. I've also replaced the flags on the veteran's graves when I was a boy scout leader.
Thank you for sharing
My Grandparents passed within 10 days of each other. They were married for 65 years. Hope they are having a "grand" time in Heaven. I enjoyed this very much!
So its definitely true.
Hi JP, you are crazy JP!!!!!😂🤣😅LOL 😆 🤣, HAVE A GREAT DAY‼️ that is really one huge cemetery.beautiful.🌹🌼🌻🌷🥀🥦🌺🌸❇️🏵️💮💠📛🌹🌹🌷🌼. you are right, vaults are what the casket goes into in the ground. A crypt is the housing that holds the remains.😃 for viewing purposes.
John & Theresa Zimmer were killed in a grueling train wreck in Corning, NY on 4 July 1912
vondah hargis - 😥
Beautiful Cemetery. Very well maintained.
I like your videos because what you see is what you get. What i mean is you don't try to fool anyone like others do. Oh by the way that is a cool cemetery! Don't change your videos.
Thanks chrissy
You should research how someone can get one of thoes building built for their grave and how much it costs. And maybe interview a person that builds them.
I'd be interested in that
Wow, I love old cementaries, total history and respect. The moment of silence..Iim now deceased myself!😆😑We may now R.i.p Jay!
😁💙
Amazing video JP. The photo montage was an 11 out of 10 as well. Also, sad to see the young lifespans on some of those headstones.
Thank you
Cool video wonder what it's like at night lol thx for sharing
It's locked up at night.
@@ghostcityshelton9378 I thought so thx
What a lovely cemetery different from England,are one are spooky even daytime.
I know what you're talking about. In the day time I took a tour and got pushed! I luv England, Ireland and Scotland.
I believe those doors are bronze
I have walked through a few cemeteries for various reasons. There is definitely a certain feeling when you are there in person.
A peaceful one
It's Beautiful Cemetery, JP 👍 ...
If you like visiting cemeteries, there's a very small cemetery I would like you to check out sometime, well if your ever in the area and you got a minute. It's not too far from where you live, well a little over an hour, from where you live. "Lemon" Cemetery, Old Greenwood Rd, Orangeville, PA There is a small old church by it... I believe its my 5th great-grandfather, Jonathan "Lemon" Sr. And his son Jonathan my 4th great-grandfather, and I'm sure plenty of other great family members. I'm sure it's not as beautiful or interesting as the one in this video, but if you are in the area, would appreciate it. It's kind of crazy I named my son Jonathan, and didn't know anything about it till afterwards... I doubt I'll ever get out that way, but who knows maybe someday...
🤔 maybe JP subconsciously, spiritually, maybe the reason I find videos about your area Pennsylvania so interesting as part of my family was from that area of Pennsylvania and I don't know too much about any of it.
If by some small chance someone is reading this comment and knows any "living family members related to this comment let me know. 👍😉
Beautiful cemetery, must have been some rich people.
Ive always been fascinated with cementarys cool video
More on the way
ND - No Dates or Not Dead, just own
Awesome. There is nothing like a good cemetery. I'm one of those who like to explore them in the dark.
Me too! We have one here in Maryland called Angel Hill. That place is spooky in the day time ...at night...being next to the woods, plus alot of graves have those blueish lights that have the solar panels, makes it even more special.
Most cemeteries are fenced in & you can access them only during daylight hours
I think copper turns green so I think those doors or copper oh well maybe
Yeah. Could be copper
very beautiful cemetary i loved watching your video
💙
I lost my dad and sister last year. 3 months apart i know what your saying about lonley my mom and dad were married over 50 years she is lonley. My sister was married for 33 years her husband is loney and her kids and grandkids miss her too
I'm so sorry for your loseing your loved ones. I'm sure you will see one another again.💖
I love the Mecca with the cars on it and stuff
enjoyed it thank you
The stone with the corvette on it had lilies carved on it.
Happy 100k yayayyaya
Thanks Aidan
Wow I never seen a bathroom in a cemetery
The last three looks like the pyramids on Giza Plateau.
My Latin class took a field trip to Cherry Hill cemetery in Indianapolis and I enjoyed it immensely.
Good for the teacher of the Latin class
Wish our cemeteries were this pretty. Kinda reminds me of the cemetery I filmed out but different trees lol. The stain glass in the crypts is beautiful.
Yeah, its definitely a nice one. I have a couple more like this coming out soon.
JPVideos awesome. Can’t wait. I filmed in a cemetery that has exposed skeletal remains. It’s really sad. I’m gonna try and upload it soon. But I have to do a voiceover and my throat has been hurting. I know tmi
Try going to Allegheny Cemetery in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania..what's called "Millionaires Row"
That Cemetery looks like a Park, it's so clean, & beautiful JPVideos.
Agreed. Its extremely beautiful and well maintained.
@@samanthab1923 sweet 👍! I think more Cemeteries could use more Architects like the one ya just talked bout. So that Cemeteries look invitin', instead of spooky.
Beautiful cemetery! I loved how some of the graves were decorated. My favorite tomb was that funeral director's! My grandma is buried in there somewhere.
Such beautiful headstones and overall location is amazing.
Mecca one is very nice!
That cemetery is huge! I'd would get lost if I had family there to put flowers on their grave!
The montage is great! 👍
Thank you
love the graveyard and all the unique headstones and the vaults and crips..graveyards are good for walking and biking..very peacefull
My family is buried in Dunmore cemtery, Hatcher Family. My grandfather Roy D Hatcher, once owned two roller rinks in Wilkes Barre PA.
Such a beautiful place, so much history. Wow, so many extraordinary
Unusual headstones built in the 1800s
This by far is my favorite video for the few weeks that I found your channel. The photo montage is so impressive. . Music selection couldn't be better.I have been a cemetery lover for many years. I travel frequently and try to see local cemetery's. Have not come across one as beautiful as this one. Just the fall colors, leaves scattered and the sky make it all the more beautiful.Different structure types are so interesting. I appreciate you for taking time to film and how you are so respectful of your surroundings. Great job! Thanks.
Thank you so much 💙
