Jeff and Sarah, I want your narrator to narrate my life’s history at my funeral.
Watching the show this morning Wagon Train they were going the trail the Donner Party went through. I would not have know who the Donner Family was if it wasn't for watching your video months ago. So today Saturday I'm going to go back and watch them to refresh my memory. Thanks for my history lesson.
I absolutely loved this video! Not only do you try to find truth in the mistakes and lies people do to make themselves look good in historical facts but, to make others not hear the real truth is a travesty to me. I am finding out as I go on in life there is no way to believe so many any more on FACTS! Thank you for sharing and checking things out first! I love it!
June Dominguez thank you! Glad you liked this show and we hope you do please subscribe!
Sorry? I am subscribed for sure! Would not miss learning more from you! I subscribed several weeks ago when I stumbled upon your site! Great videos too!
Your videos are truly an inspiration to learn more about American history. Great job!!!
Tom Roush wow! That is the best compliment I think I could earn. Thank you so much. I enjoy making these videos and I hope that she will watch more to come for me. You probably already have subscribed but I would love to have you join the team. Thank you
great video jeff and sarah.allof your videos are so informative.
ALL of your videos are great; this one perhaps the most informative. Thanks
Roy G. Dodd thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and learned a thing or two!
The Donner Party is so sad, and should never be forgotten.
Jeff, another excellent presentation. The drone shots really made this video !
Hal Hunter thank you! I appreciate the thumbs up! Hard at work on another one!
Thank you for sharing these beautiful stories.
Thanks very much, Marco! I appreciate you watching them. I know, being a great history buff, like them! Have a great Christmas!
It's a miracle that anyone in the Donner Party servived.
I love your videos! I have a weird obsession with the Donner Reed Party History lately so I appreciate these awesome videos!
Emily Gee thank you! I have a great idea for a screenplay for a Donner movie but I don’t know where to begin.
Another great video on the Donner trek. So informative will have to see it again to refresh myself with the facts.
Another great video Jeff and Sarah keep them coming 👍🏻
mark lawson thank you once again! We both appreciate you watching! And yes more videos are in the works!
The "mistake" that you pointed out on 2:08 about the year 6008. That year is in reference to the Masonic Calendar-as noted by chapter listed underneath.
God Bless All Of Our American Pioneers...
Hi History Hunters. Thank you for shedding light on where the fight between Reed and Snyder took place. I have often wondered where it happened and wanted to visit the location some day. Now with the help of your video I now know where to go and that will be on my list of places to visit in the summer of 2020. Great job of telling history!!!
My pleasure. The exact coordinates of the fight location and what is believed to be his rock covered gravesite is 40°59'31.6"N 117°19'19.5"W and I think if you google map it you can see the dirt roads leading to the site. Glad you watched and enjoyed the video!
Great video. If you had hiked behind Rattle Snake mountain you would of found a short fenced off section of the immigrant trail. Its untouched and preserved for whatever reason. Thanks for all you do.
Archeologists generally leave some parts of sites not excavated so future archeologists with better technologies have a chance to improve on their work. They learned that lesson the hard way a few times because of some overzealous archeologists around the turn of the 19th century basically bulldozing really important sites lol.
@@alexburke1899 Like the guy who dug up a large section of heavily-clue-laden land on Oak Island,now they're having to nearly start over.
Such a sad ordeal for the people involved in the Donner Party
Linda Lucas indeed it was a tragedy that could have been avoided. What is miraculous is that anyone survived!
Another great episode! Thanks for all your hard work and time.
Thanks so much! We appreciate you Michelle!
Interesting to see Donner Party Park today and photos of how it looked back in the day. What a contrast! It's sad that they feasted on the dead bodies but I put myself in their place if I'm starving. How badly do I want to survive? Thank you for a good presentation.💕
Really enjoy these slices of American history that are not known about....Especially from this side of the pond...Thankyou
Thank you very much! I appreciate it, John, especially knowing you are watching from across the pond! Jeff
History Hunters just keep those vids coming...
johnhalley974 We certainly will. Thank you
Shout out from Australia. Makes me miss the American West. I would love to visit again. Love your work.
Thank you very much! Happy know we have yet another Australian watching our channel!
I'm a direct descendant of Lavina Murphy, and the town of Marysville was found by the husbands of her daughters Mary and Sarah and one of her surviving son was District Attorney of Yuba Co
Helen Pomerleau what a heritage to be proud of!
Another interesting great video thanks so much.
How could this video have seven unlikes unbelievable honestly this channel is one of the best on RUclips everything this man share is absolutely brilliant the least anyone should give is a like for the time and money put in to make these videos.
johnny nolan Thank you so very much for that very uplifting comment. The only thing I can figure is that there are a bunch of jealous people out there who love to stick their finger in your eye at anything you do. They really must be a miserable sort of person. I just eliminated a comment from somebody on another video where she declared my video boring because I didn’t have a metal detector. I am not a metal detector show I talk about and show about historical places. My feeling is if they don’t like my show then don’t subscribe and don’t watch it and don’t put a thumbs down on it. But honestly, thank you so much. I wish all fans were like you.
@@jbenziggy man I swear these people are mutants please don't let them discourage you in any way you are appreciated on here by thousands you come across as a very descent well spoken respectable person you and your misses. Especially in this lockdown your videos are a life saver.
Your so welcome I'm only giving credit where its due.
I pray you and your family stay and healthy.
God bless.
My wife and I enjoy your videos. I do have 1 small issue with your narration. The covered wagons were not conestogas but a much smaller lighter wagon. The conestogas were so heavy they would kill the oxen on such a arduous trail. We are members of Immigrant Trails West, the people that put up the railroad rail markers along the various trails and publish the trail guides.
Hopefully you were able to make it to Truckee, they have a great little museum on one of the campsites used by the Donner party. Great work!
Awesome production Jeff, so good and informative. I don't understand how people can not have this history in their lives, living and being raised in America. Keep up the excellent work !!
Oh, I can...the dumbing down of the public school system.
You and Sara are going places that I only dream about going
I live in Reno and can see Rattlesnake from my living room.i think about them all the time. I admit going swimming and chilling at the beach at Donner lake feels a little weird when you stop and think about what happened where you're standing
Outstanding !!!
Thanks! We will be releasing a new Donner Party video tomorrow morning! We hope you’ll subscribe!
Many years ago I lived just south of rattlesnake mountain. I had no idea of the history.
Again amazing 👏 thank you
Thanks again! We appreciate it, Ragdoll2521!
This video was nicely done. Thank you for your work.
Thank you very much, Debbie! I have more Donner videos on the upcoming docket.
Never knew this. Knew they went through Nevada. Never knew they camped there. Been to Reno many times. But just downtown.never ventured out and explored the outskirts.
Great video! I'm actually related by my aunt's marriage to descendants of the Graves family. I've been fascinated with the Donner Party most of my life. Patty Reed's doll is actually on display at Sutters Fort in Sacramento. Went to the memorial multiple times having grown up not far from there. We relocated to the Midwest six years ago and got to drive HWY 80 all the way into Iowa. Passing through Utah and eventually Ft Bridger in Wyoming by car made me shiver at the thought people once made this trip by wagon. Fun channel! I love history very much myself. My wife, children and myself made a trip to the James Farm in Kearney, Missouri last year and it was AMAZING. Jesse's grave is there and Liberty, Missouri which was the site of his first bank robbery is nearby. We also went to St. Joseph, Missouri which not only the place Jesse James was shot, but the headquarters of the Pony Express, Civil War battles and the home of many other historical figures. I highly recommend if you haven't already been.
Have you read The Indifferent Stars Above? It focuses on the Graves family, Sarah Graves in particular. You should check it out!
@@sandraentry3798 no I haven't its a book? I'll definitely have a look at it.
GREAT, FROM AUSTRALIA.
Thank you, John! We are happy to know more people from Australia are watching!
im really enjoying this
Charles Gamon thank you! And thanks for watching our channel! Hoping you subscribe!
I am new to your vlogs and I am hooked. I lived in auburn and have been to several places you have shown.
Thank you for great stuff
Welcome to our channel! Glad you like them! We love Auburn and hope to get back up there soon! Thank you for being a fan!
@@jbenziggy thank you for responding. That was nice. You two together also makes me laugh. Have you been through alturas california.
It has history behind it.
Again thank you so much
Bobby Barrow That’s funny that we make you laugh sometimes. LOL. No, we have not been through Alturas. There’s so many places to go in little time with our day jobs. RUclips hasn’t allowed me to quit my job just yet. LOL
@@jbenziggy tell youtube I will come work for you two for free lol
This is very good , i had to watch it twice .. Great history which i like ..
Twice huh? Thanks! Glad you liked it!
In clamper world 2019 is 6024. Cannot explain it but that’s the deal. Subtract to learn date the plaque was places. E CLAMPUS VITUS. Satisfactory!
Thanks for this informative video. I'm in the process of researching the history of Reno/Sparks' 200+ parks, and you did the work on this park for me! Hope you don't mind if we link to this video from the Truckee Meadows Parks Foundation website! Great job!
Glad it was helpful! We don't mind ... we welcome you sharing! Thanks!
You were probably 15 minutes from us😂. I use to work out by the Beowawe rest area
409rommel very cool. I think you have your prints all over Nevada! LOL
In California it was Manditory to do California History in the 4th Grade. Even tho wr Homeschooled we still did this. We did a packet in Literature were I saw my middle son fall in love with Reading. There is an Excellent Book called Patty Reids Doll. & since I was a hands on school mom we went to Sacramento to the SuttersMuseum where the real Patty Reids Doll is on Display. I was shocked cus it's less than 3 inches tall ❤ we went to Sutter's Mill where the California Gold Rush Began. We panned for Gold . We went up the Grade where the Donner Party Camped during their Ordeal. Also wrnt to Donner Lake. It was a Precious Memory that is Tucked away in Heart ❤ I Loved those Days with my Family.
I would NEVER want to live at the base of something that had "rattlesnake" in its name.
Ha ha! But funny thing is I liked that neighborhood when visiting there. I'd live there! Thanks for watching!
I've been to the site at iron point you can still see the wagon ruts and camp sites.
I do want to make it out there!
Lots of people still do it. Just only with paint. An Trash every where... So sad now days..
interesting point you make about travel then and now and the beautiful subdivision that was then just a meadow and spring. Your back to the future comment made me thing about how truly pissed they would be if they knew we can now travel in 12 hours what took them two months to try and make which of course we know they came up short and were trapped in the mountain snow.
I always think about what places looked like before the massive inundation of civilization. Like wonder what the first white man to see WY. Thought. Or the Mississippi , or any of the beautiful places in between our shores.
Outside the political crap going on in California I love learning about the history of the state I was born in. (Oak Knoll Naval Hospital Oakland CA)
The passage of time is hard to fathom. I am 66 and the Donner Party seems closer and more tangible to me now than it did 50 years ago when I first read "Ordeal by Hunger". As a sixteen year old in 1970, the story of the Donner Party seemed impossibly distant in time. . now, a half century later, not so much, why is that?
AmiJurgl probably because you see through adult eyes and can appreciate what they had to go through to pave the pave so could live in the landing milk and honey. I feel for those folks. Hey thanks for watching and I hope you subscribe!
@@jbenziggy love your channel and of course i subscribed.👍☺
Hi Jeff, we really like your presentations. Very informative. Would you please look up the plural pronunciation of the Sierra as in Sierra Nevada. It would be an interesting topic for one your presentation
gerry
Love your pointing out the Native Sons of the Golden West of which lm a 47 year member
👍👍👍
That is why I still have a mp3 player
If this rock could talk what would it say?
Rock: Why don't people want Pet Rocks anymore? We're quiet. We don't eat or drink so we don't pee and crap all over the place. We're excellent at sit and stay. Plus, if someone breaks into your house, you can throw us at them.
Thanks for the giggles.
You wouldn't happen to have a google map layer that we could download and use to see all these places on our own would you?
Unfortunately no but most of these locations can be googled. Thanks for following us!
9:31 "PUT ME DOWN!"
Ha ha ha
You do what you have to do to survive
Like they hadn't suffered enough - the poor fact lingers in the energy of tragedy.
Drama most often a result of Egos.
Tragic
"We are a odd public in this era" - our Ego mind still in need of discipline for greater wisdom.
While it is a shame they traveled they way they did and died, it's just part of evolving. I'm vsure 100 years from now it'll be even easier traveling.
You do know clamper years are different not wrong.
myzukrox explain.
It's Nevaaa (like Apple or fAst)-da. Please practice until it comes nAtural to you. Thank you.
I say it right. My narrator got it wrong. But don’t blame him. He’s from Canada and lives in Japan.
