Was probably a monument to some slave owner and that bothered somebody. And all these confederate traitor flags everywhere dont help either - its as if in Germany they stick Nazi swastika flags next to the graves of fallen soldiers. Except they dont do that, because it would be inappropriate. You dont need to present the flag they fought under to honor them. The problem with a certain part of the southern population is, they want to be provocative. There is no need to fly the treason flag or worship traitors with monuments or ban books actually teaching the history of that era because they tell inconvenient truths. But they do it anyway to provoke and hurt people.
The obelisk of Mr. William Taber II is for a man who was simply a layer and editor of the Charleston Mercury. He was killed in a duel with Andrew Gordon Magrath who became Governor of South Carolina for words written about Magrath. Odd someone who do that.
I think one of the last things i did with my grandfather before he started to suffer from dementia was to visit the facility where the Hunley is kept actually. I wish I had paid more attention, not because I thought it was uninteresting at the time, but because I saw him fully present and coherent so few times after.
They often fill the holes of oaks with cement to prevent squirrels, raccoons, etc. from hollowing them out even more. Also keeps some of the weather out so the trunk doesn't rot.
Love old cemeteries alway very beautiful. Thank you for these tours. And thats the weather in the summer in the south. One minute clear then a thunder shower and one minute later the sun and the most sticky heat you'll ever feel. 😅
My hometown . It’s one of the most beautiful cemeteries around . The Huntley submarine is on display now as well or it was last time I heard . City is so rich in history . I could go on for days. IDon’t miss the humidity and summer heat of Charleston though.
Some of the most beautiful cemeteries are the older ones. I Lived on the outskirts of Columbia, S. Carolina. Columbia has the most beautiful antebellum cemetery. The graves date back to in some cases the 1700's. It is very well kept as it should be. It is always sad to see vandalism in a cemetery. I loved this cemetery. Thank you for sharing.
Rain sounds beautiful, awesome cemetery so green a forest feeling wish people would stop vandalizing our heavenly Father wouldn't want that they , got to remember he watches us daily Thanks for sharing always a blessing
You are right the Live Oak & the Spanish Moss are a little creepy,but very beautiful!what a history that cemetery has to tell,thank you for another wonderful video!
Just as u were saying u been everywhere with ole cemeteries.. I was looking at the mossy oaks,old headstones, with it cloudy looking.. thinking what a beautiful amazing graveyard.. I'm in South Carolina.. couple hrs from Charleston and been several times but never to the cemetery, but I know now what I've missed.. I enjoy ole civil war era, frontiersmen sites out West..old plantations history.. it's all memorizing me and read bout.. I know England has wonderful stonework cottages and cemeteries but this cemetery is the tops.. thank u for sharing
Wonderful cemetery tour. Thank you for showing the Confederate graves. We erect and restore historic monuments in western Maryland. We are the Cumberland Historic Cemetery Organization.
I’ve been a South Carolina resident my entire life and sadly, I’ve never visited this cemetery or any of the areas you’ve covered in video’s recently. I hope I get a chance to see them some day in person. Thanks for sharing some of our beautiful places❤ 🌙🌴
I love old cemeteries. In highschool I took a photography class every year. We got special permission to leave the school during school hours and spend the day photographing our old Town. I made my way over to the cemetery and photographed a lot of old grave stones and mausoleums. One of my photographs done so well it hung for years in our county courthouse.
I have a family graveyard right outside of Charleston South Carolina that has been in my family for hundreds of years. My family is one of South Carolinas founding families and one of charlestons first settling families. They came here in the 1660s. There is a family church across that is from the 1800s and a larger church later constructed on the property that my 4th great grandfather gave to them. The old church was rolled to its current resting place during the civil war era when my grandfather gifted the church the property. My 6th great grandfather was a captain in the revolutionary war at 16. He married the granddaughter of Thomas Monk, the guy that Monks Corner South Carolina is named after. If you are ever interested in looking there just let me know and I can give you some more information.
I have a family tree with direct line descent from said people if you are interested. I’m pretty well versed on it all. I love history and cemeteries. I’m even distantly related to George Washington through one of my 6th great grandmothers.
Really beautiful cemetery, very nostalgic looking. Definitely looks like those coffins were taken out of that vault that had water lodged in it. Are those trees weeping willows?
I was lucky enough to participate in the burial ceremony for the last Hunley crew. Also got to do a behind the scenes tour of the lab and sub before it was opened to the public.
I work at the tattoo shop right there at the cemetery. We also used to occupy the building next door at 1436 Meeting St., which is connected to the cemetery. It’s super peaceful during the day. At night is a little different. I have security footage of countless orbs moving in all directions as soon as the lights went off and a lot of them followed my colleague out of the door when she left for the night. 😮
Welcome to Charleston! Wish I could have caught a glimpse of you around town to give you a shout out for your awesome channel. 😊 Here’s a recommendation for another great place to visit- Hopsewee Plantation in Georgetown, just an hour outside Charleston heading towards Myrtle Beach.BTW…the bolts on the side of buildings and structures are earthquake. bolts. We sit on a fault line. They would tighten the bolts after earthquakes to keep the structures from coming apart.
14:21 - poor babies, not even 4 years old. Left side grave - Born Dec 8, 1878 - Died April (?), 1880 Right sie grave - Born Oct 1, 1886 - Died Aug 28, 1890
The rain adds character to that old cemetery.
Why would anyone want to vandalize a cemetery… so sad. Another great video! Thank you for taking me to places I will never get to go!
The same reason we saw statues being overturned…

What an atmosphere..love the haunting trees..ie the Spanish Moss
Stunning cemetery ,thanks for showing us this...
I loved this cemetery. Very well maintained for being so large. First time I have ever seen a tree eating graves stones.😳

This is an amazing cemetery, rich in history.
I loved this video and I grew up by a cemetary and it's a very peaceful place. We used to help clean up the grave stones.

Such a beautiful, peaceful place. I went by on a sunny October morning last year. We have such beautiful cemeteries here in Charleston.

Amazing..
Nice tour. Thank you. Blessings from Michigan.
Really beautiful cemetery, very nostalgic looking. Definitely looks like those coffins were taken out of that vault that had water lodged in it. Are those trees weeping willows?
I always wonder what you guys do on rainy days. I mean, hopefully your equipment doesn't get ruined, or can it take the moisture?
I was lucky enough to participate in the burial ceremony for the last Hunley crew. Also got to do a behind the scenes tour of the lab and sub before it was opened to the public.
Amazing video. Thank you for sharing
My grandparents on my Daddy's side are buried there. My great grandparents too near the offices and confederate soldiers. Love your channel.
Love the old BIG tree

The large trees have many deep roots visited many graves
I think Colonel Robert Gould Shaw is buried there. He was the Colonel of the 54 Massachusetts. Matthew Broderick played him in the movie Glory.
Col Shaw is buried with his men in a common grave in the Beaufort National Cemetery
Peru has the tombs underground with stairs you can go down the caskets, it is so strange, there is alot of Bruja there. 🙀
Wow compere this to modern cemetery, I visited small one in St Augustine FL with dates from 17 hundreds but it's nothing like this
NICE

Ahh... The Freemason's, the most secret, not secret, secret society. Who controls the past, controls the future.
horse mounted troops are pronounced "ca-vul-ree", NOT "cal-vuh-ree". pet peeve
