The flowers and photos are such a loving sight to be seen. Your respect for them, and picking up the wreath that had fallen over, is deeply appreciated.
14:01 From a quick Google search, I found that this marker with the initials FCL stands for Fraternity, Charity, Loyalty used by the National Women's Relief Corps which is the auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic, a Veteran's group of Civil War soldiers. I apologize if this was already answered in a previous comment. As always, I loved the video.
Amazing cemetery. The veteran that had no war listed may not have been in a war, but served in the military. It's a shame that kids feel the need to destroy things that don't belong to them. Great job Matt.
Nice videos! You mentioned about damage done with baseball bats. Well, I live next to an old paupers cemetery for 40 years. Over the years, I have seen the damage to grave markers done by the town's LAWN MOWERS! I'm willing to bet, that is what 80% of headstone damage anyone sees.
My step father was a Salesman for a couple of cemeteries. He told us that during the great depression a lot of people couldn't afford tombstones for loved ones so they would make their own from concrete mix. They didn't really hold up to the weather and alot of cemeteries have lost the records over the years, so now there are alot of marked graves that are unknown who is buried there.
I enjoy old cemeteries. Thank you for sharing your videos with us. I so appreciate your respect and care of those who have gone on before us and for any family that may be left. You have a very loving heart.
Nice video. I know I sound like an old lady but you are quite the gentleman and I appreciate your respect for the cemetery. New subscriber here, keep up the good work
When I visit cemeteries and video a grave site... I leave a flower. I, go to the dollar store and buy $20 worth of fake flowers and leave them, as a sign of my respect.
Great find Matt. The old photos were great. We are losing that generation (World War 2). My Mother was 16 when Pearl Harbor was bombed in Hawaii and was an eyewitness to that day. She became a USO Hostess and loved to dance. I can still remember her taking me to where she was standing when she saw the planes and smoke from Pearl Harbor. She passed away in 2013.
my mother worke at the oak ridge site for the making of the atomic bomb. she passed in 2014. my dad is a world war 2 vet who fought in germany. he is 91 now and in frail hearth.. just sayin.
Cemeteries are fascinating places and you always do such a wonderful job of showing them. The artwork in the stones are just wonderful! Thanks for being so respectful when visiting! Keep up the great work! Thanks for sharing!
I love cemeteries, and we don't have mausoleums where I live so it's awesome to see this one. I despise anyone who would desecrate graves of the dead .. vandalism is just senseless. Thanks so much for sharing!
At--6:56--- That is the fireplace I was talking about! I've never seen one inside like that in a graveyard. Then you see pictures & you wonder what kind of lives they had. You're always so respectful. It's great to explore with you. 😊👻
I just found your channel and I’m obsessed. Currently binge watching. I love genealogy, old graveyards and pioneer history. Thank you for sharing. We went to New Orleans last year and I could have spent months touring the graveyards there,
Hi Matt 14:01 the markings indicate that the Veteran was in the Navy The anchor on the right hand side is an indacator of what branch he served ,and did serve in one of the wars . Stay safe in all you do Merry Christmas
Hi Matt the triple links is a recurring symbol among odd fellows internationally connoting the motto of "Amicitia Amor et Veritas"; English. " Friendship, Love and Truth". A really lovely video, I love those tree memorials they are so artistically done. That Mausoleum was really pretty inside and it was nice to see it hadn't been vandalised even though there are signs of this disgusting behaviour on some of the outside graves. xx
I love exploring old graveyards!! I grew up near Williamsburg,VA and there are so many interesting,historical cemeteries scattered all over Colonial Virginia. Thanks for showing me a different part of the country!! Nice work!
That Mausoleum was hauntingly beautiful. Maybe that room with the beer was for the person who keeps the place clean? I'd need a beer too, if that was the case. Who knows? Love your work, Matt! Look forward to the next adventure. 👍❤
Maybe I’m strange but I think graveyards and cemeteries are beautiful. The stonework, especially the more unusual ones like the tree monuments are my favorite.
What a great video Matt, the respect that you show, for those that have passed before us is heartwarming. As you were walking through the cemetery, I could see what was left of a huge tree, it look's like it had been recently cut down. The sextons of the cemetery, sometime's have damaged/dead tree's removed, before they damage stone's. How sad that the only entertainment some can find, is to damage someone's final place of rest. I'm guessing the beer can's may have been picked up by the caretaker, after a late night gathering in the cemetery.
Sometimes I'll see unopened bottles or cans of beer that friends & family leave behind for their departed loved ones too. It's not always strangers partying or what ever else one might assume? The caretakers usually remove them each time they tend to the grass.
dude ever since i found your channel ive been going through all your videos and its awesome i thought i was the only person who liked cemetary structures and art. I used to go through my local one as a kid and just wander around fascinated. Great work
Your channel just showed up in my feed because I have been watching other graveyard videos. I enjoy visiting cemeteries and have visited many in Virginia and now Arizona. I just love the fact that I can now visit cemeteries outside my area by watching your videos. This mausoleum is fascinating as well as the gravestones you featured. Love it! Thank you. New subbie.
Something important for you to know. At the grave of the Rogers' there is a tree with a large limb not far from the ground. It is a marker tree, used by the Native Americans to guide them from place to place. There aren't many left and they would like to know of this tree. It would behoove you to get in touch with historians and let them know where you were on this day.
The windows were stained glass, unfortunately people stole them because they were worth a small fortune. You did a great job on this video, very respectful. Thanks.
I know what you mean the stained glass is beautiful. To save the church windows they are covering up the stained glass with a window on top of the stained glass.. Next time you pass a church or a place with stained glass look up and notice if it has a covering of another window on top of it. Love your videos, I really enjoy watching them.
I like old out of the way cemeteries. Lots of history, some very old, and back then they often had poetry at the bottom. I find it amazing way back how relatives often died within days of other family members, smallpox, typhus, etc. etc. Even in the woods, now and then you will find an old abandoned family cemetery.
Nice video. I actually live on the property where a very old Odd Fellows Home Building once stood. That building has been torn down and what stands here now is a nursing home, a building called Reflections for people in end of life stage, memory care cottages and an apartment building where I live called independent living. This whole campus is called Three Links. The three links are displayed throughout the campus. Feel free to message me with questions.
My mom and dad are at Bergen Crest mausoleum in North Bergen New Jersey, it is literally falling apart and nobody cares I'm beside myself, I've written to the state of New Jersey and they're looking into it, I like your videos, this Mausoleum is clean old but well kept
Anytime you see a tombstone with a lamb on top, this is the grave of a child. I have always been fascinated with graveyards and it has always torn my heart each time I have seen one of these headstones, especially when I read the dates and see that it was an infant.
There is an old cemetery here in Hurst,Tx.Mr Hurst is buried there.It is called Arwine cemetery.There is a fence around because people kept vandalizing it.About a mile from where I live.
I'm 72 years old and when I lived in Woodsfield Ohio I was 11. The cemetery there had stones so destroyed they were beyond repair. I wonder what it looks like now 60 years later?
my wife and i stumbled on an old gravryard between huntington wv and lexington ky just off a rural exit. one grave told a story of a young married couple where both were 18. she was murdered and he killed her murderer and then he was killed. they are buried together. they died on the same day,but he wrote the epitath that went on the marker before he died. we took pictures but you really cant tell much fromit
I looked up images for Odd Fellows and there are many pictures and stone carvings that have the tri-chain link. In most of these links also has three initials...F L T (Independent Order of Odd Fellows - also known as "The Three Link Fraternity" which stands for Friendship, Love and Truth. Many times the FLT will be found on a flag holder or on the tombstone with each letter in a link of a chain.
Here is a non damaging way to read old grave stones. Wipe with a soft brush. Apply shaving cream over the markings. Take a plastic windshield scraper or rubber squeegee and scrape off the shaving cream. Markings will show very clearly. When done, spray off shaving cream with water.
Awesome, thank you for being a good friend to cemeteries 🤗. Coming from a military family , a daughter of the American revolution , only person who can not grasp any form of decency would vandalize a cemetery .. My dad use to tell us a story about cemeteries with military dead, he said they have a kind of spirits called sentinels who guard the resting dead , almost all cemeteries have some members of our brave military , great thanks for sharing ..
I love graveyard's so this was very cool! Some cemeterie's have some old history, i always try to not step on the grave's not because of superstition but because of repect for the dead!
I wasn't going to say anything about this until I heard you say you visited Kentucky at one point, so Pennsylvania would not be unreasonable for you. There was a very fine old cemetery in the town of Monongahela, Pennsylvania. The main cemetery entrance is just opposite the new-ish (80's?) bridge over the Monongahela river. Last time I saw it, it was in very fine shape, and it has many chapels and above-ground mausoleums and one INSANE huge family sculpture (can't recall the name) in the shape of a giant BROOM...the sort more commonly associated with 'spell work' rather than housework...what would possess a family to choose that as a thousands of dollars symbol of their family I wonder? Surely making brooms wasn't THAT lucrative a craft?!? Anyway, they have a section in the right hand back corner, sort of on a really steep hillside of graves that reach back into the late 1700s. Definitely worth a bit of travel to see, I'd say. And in fact most of the towns up and down the river (all roads in this area follow along the river, as do the towns. Monongahela is about 20 minutes outside of Pittsburgh to the south and west. You get to the city by Rt 88, which travels under Mt Washington and Squirrel Hill, the same Squirrel Hill which recently featured in the national news for that terrible synagogue shooting. Might be worth it to try and visit their Jewish cemetery too while you're there since you're so close, if you think you can do it without offending anyone that is. Would probably be best to see if you could cultivate a contact from one of the nearby towns--West Elizabeth, New Eagle, Monongahela, Donora, Bel Vernon and Charleroi are all quite close--who could give you more up-to-date information. It might have fallen into severe disrepair by now. It's been 40 years since I was through there and they've had a number of severe economic down-turns in that area since--it's steel and coal country, so anything could've happened since I last saw it.

Thank you Matt for this very wonderful video I always enjoy all your videos on both of your channels and keep up the great work you do making these videos and God Bless you ..
I know at one time some years ago, they had a thing called " Pàerpetual Care " But it sure looks like they never heard of it here. I also cannot believe the amount of vandalism that seems so rampant.
This mausoleum is where my grandparents are interred. Thank you for your respectful treatment.
I genuinely appreciate that you fixed the flowers and adjusted the turned markers. Thank you. I'm so glad see someone caring for the dead.
The flowers and photos are such a loving sight to be seen. Your respect for them, and picking up the wreath that had fallen over, is deeply appreciated.
Thank you, ErynRenee
14:01 From a quick Google search, I found that this marker with the initials FCL stands for Fraternity, Charity, Loyalty used by the National Women's Relief Corps which is the auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic, a Veteran's group of Civil War soldiers.

Thank you for being so respectful there and tidying up. So rare that anyone does that anymore. Wonderful video and look forward to more.
Amazing cemetery. The veteran that had no war listed may not have been in a war, but served in the military. It's a shame that kids feel the need to destroy things that don't belong to them. Great job Matt.
Kim Mckeever I so agree with you!
Sadly, its not always kids. We had an 50+ woman that stole 100+ brass flower vases off graves here...
I would love to catch someone disrespecting a grave. I assure you, they wouldn't do it again!!
Nice videos! You mentioned about damage done with baseball bats. Well, I live next to an old paupers cemetery for 40 years. Over the years, I have seen the damage to grave markers done by the town's LAWN MOWERS! I'm willing to bet, that is what 80% of headstone damage anyone sees.
Thanks for the tour. Sad to think that these people are gone and now forgotten. By touring old graveyards, it helps to honor the past.
You sir are a good soul. I am sure you are a most welcomed visitor. Your heart is respectful and kind.
My step father was a Salesman for a couple of cemeteries.

good Job straightening things and being respectful. I wish more people were like you.
- a fireplace and mantel in a mausoleum?, First one I've seen, what a cool idea., Thanks for showing us!
Its not that they were not professionally carved it's that they were done by hammer and chisel not modern machin tools.
people would come to be with the dead light a fire have lunch spend the day with kin
It would be great if you would read dates more. Love this.
@@debbiebarnette3093 agreed
I like old cemeteries, every grave has it's untold story!!! 🙏
You were very respectful in the mauseleum. You should tell the office that the mauseleum was open. Good video.

Old cemeteries tell a sad story about people who are long forgotten.
That mausoleum was amazing it's just like the one in my mother's little town in Iowa 💚🌷💛👍
Being from Louisiana, i suggest you go there! Cool mausoleums with haunted cemeteries!!! Shreveport, New Orleans, baton rouge...
I love cemeteries, and we don't have mausoleums where I live so it's awesome to see this one. I despise anyone who would desecrate graves of the dead .. vandalism is just senseless. Thanks so much for sharing!
I appreciate how respectful you are
you show a lot of respect with the straightening of the stars and in general, it is appreciated.
I visit old cemetarys also ,And the saddest thing I think is an old headstone that is unreadable .
The mausoleum is spectacular! So thankful the inside has not been vandalized. Looks like a few available vaults.

The fireplace is super neat! Never seen that before.
Stone / concrete crosses are somewhat more common in older Australian graveyards, or they're added on top of an existing monument
The flooring tiles are really beautiful
I always enjoy your videos. Thank you. A wonderful Mausoleum. 🌹💟🌹
That mausoleum looks exactly like the one at Beavercreek Cemetery near Grand Rapids, Ohio. Including the fire place alcove and the storage room.
I learned a lot on this vid about organizations such as The Woodsmen and Order of Oddfellows and about the wonderful tradition of Decoration Day.
I love exploring old graveyards!! I grew up near Williamsburg,VA and there are so many interesting,historical cemeteries scattered all over Colonial Virginia. Thanks for showing me a different part of the country!! Nice work!

If you visit the cemeteries at SpillvilleIA, there are the most amazing cast iron tombstones and markers.
I'm happy that you fix things as you go
Really lovely adventuring with you; don't forget to leave a coin anywhere before leaving the cemetery.

You may already know this but if you put paper over the head stone and take a pencil you can usually bring names and dates up from the headstone

This cemetary is kept in poor condition. What a shame no one cleans it up and straighten out some of these headstones.

yes

Those are playing marbles, which was a favorite pass time of the young boys of that era.
The "tree" monuments are usually for people belonging to the Woodmen of the World. There are a lot of them here in the South.
That was amazing cemetery,,i loved and thank for share these video 👍 work..!
Thank you so much for your video. I know about the eye for the odd fellows but that is all. The tile floor of the mausoleum was beautiful.
