Ollie is absolutely adorable and what a clever and fine young man for bringing awareness to such beautiful, old character cemetery, (if somewhat neglected, it's still beautiful). Well done Ollie and thank you for sharing it with us. God bless 🙏 xx Teresa 🇦🇺♥
It's so sad😢😢 .Right on the other side of the stone wall, a road and houses. I wonder if those who put in vaults and Mausaleums ever thought how they would end up? It is odd what bad shape with the dates not being that old. Alot of grave slabs, wow, great video, thanx , enjoyed it.❤😊❤😊
I am really enjoying your videos, Serenity Sue. Your Irish accent is so melodic to me. I live in the US, but my father hailed from Dublin, Ireland :-) Your countryside is so beautiful!
👋 Sue 😊. Wish I could run away to Ireland! 🍀 Such young deaths. 😢 Always so sad for those left behind. “Overgrown” is being generous!! Good Heavens! 🎶 Tell me why the ivy twines 🎶. Brambles thick, as well. No upkeep done for those buried in this cemetery😢 I’ve seen abandoned cemeteries, even over here. We even have abandoned Funeral Homes, with all left behind. It seems like somehow we need someone to be responsible for these. I don’t think that’s unreasonable. 🤔 It looks like the coffin may have been failing & someone covered them so the remains weren’t exposed anymore, perhaps? ⚰️ Thank you Sue & GV! Glad you don’t do these alone anymore! The potential for stepping the wrong way, etc. is worth being in twos! 💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚 And a star 🌟 for Ollie!! 😊
THANK'S-A-BUNCHE'S Olly.... 👍🏼👍🏼 Good find. 😁🤗 Thank You Sue, for sharing! 🤩 And Super Big Thank's to you both for braving through the stickers for us! 🥹🫶🏼😘
Last year, a group of friends and I discovered next to an old apartment complex a civil war cemetery. It's embarrassing how depraved it is. Since we've had some community bake sales to raise money to fix, etc. I saw homes near that cemetery. Maybe locals can help?❤
Thank you, Ollie, for bringing us this beautiful but sad cemetery. It's one of the most overgrown I've seen. So sad when there's no family around to look after them. Those vaults are so overgrown you really can't tell they're vaults until you see some stonework. The one is really in danger of falling over and that would be a shame. Please be careful, you guys of walking around there for it looks very dangerous. Thanks again, Sue, for taking us on the tour.
So sad that the ivy and briars can't be trimmed back on occasion so one could read names and to protect them from collapse. So pretty and green there. Thank you Sue and GV!!
I run my own gardening business and seeing these over grown graves , I'd love to get in there and clean them up! And like I mentioned before in one of your videos , then camp there 😂 whilst maintaining those graveyards . The historical society in my country town maintain our local Cemetery. They usually put on a working bee and locals who are keen to help will look after its grounds. Country Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺 Another beautiful place Sue. 👍
What a wonderful son Ollie is. That cemetery is a sad affair. Don’t the councils look after them? They could like you said ask for volunteers. I do hope it happens. Thanks for taking me along. Please take care
Another great Vlog, Thanks Sue. God bless you, it warms my heart that every time you see a picture, statue or carving of Jesus, you always address him as Lord.
I can't find the words for this disgraceful mess Sue, and I have doubts that the well is still being used! Eww...Well done Ollie🤩. Take care, Deb of Oz XXX
Well hello Olly! Nice to see ya and so happy you are still hanging out with your Ma. You are growing up so fast and sure your Ma is proud of you❤. Sue, thanks for taking us around and I just have to say, I'd be digging into that ivy if I even thought it would not collapse on top of me! Maybe they aren't clearing it out because it is the only thing holding some of those vaults' roofs together 😮 Be careful as always and thanks again!
I'd be trying to find a way to clear it up a bit. I have free reign over about 30 cemeteries. It's mostly Amish cemeteries and a few historical cemeteries. Plus the cemetery my daughter is buried in.
@snickers2877 yes, they mostly take care of the cemeteries, but sometimes during late spring and summer they don't get there as often. The cemeteries I help with all have some variations of Stoltzfus in them. My youngest and Linda Stoltzfoos could have been twins. They were just 3 months apart in age. When Linda was still missing, we had people call the police saying I had kidnapped her and had her with me. Thankfully my youngest had a picture ID with her and after the first incident I carried her birth certificate with me. My middle daughter was 23 when she passed away almost 7 years ago. I'm in Chester County in Brandamore. It's a fancy name for Honey Brook, but just a small section.
So sad that families die out and there’s nobody to upkeep their tombs. It’s said that only two more generations will be remembered by their offspring. Sad.
Ahhhh ... look at your wee lad! He is definitely a handsome young man. He did a fine job of finding and researching this old and declining cemetery. So sad so many are now unknown because their slab graves cannot be read for identification. RIP to all that are buried there. ♥️☘️
❤he’s beautiful I saw a spike that had been hit on the highway makes me want to cry I had the misfortune of hitting one I cried like a baby poor trooper didn’t know what to say
My goodness, Ollie is a cutie pie! I understand your frustration about how the vaults especially are overgrown with ivy and thorns, but there is something a little comforting about the earth taking us back into her embrace. I also loved the shot of the Well. I know it is supposed to be a Catholic place, but the activity there is straight up pagan/Druidic.
I love walking graveyards to look at the history they can tell us. I would like to write down some names to find out what they did in life if I can in council records if I can.
Sue your son is so charming! I am confused about why the community would allow a cemetery to get that overgrown. There are attractive new homes across the street. An overgrown cemetery across the street must be lowering their property values. I don’t understand why they don’t care
Vaults are little structures. Just as a house untended will eventually fall to ruin, so too the vaults give way to time and the elements, with no one to look after them.
the Japanese knotweed is a worrying sign and looks like it is already been left to cause havoc. They would really need the professionals in to sort it as it can take atleast 3 years to treat it. Environmental health should really be on top of it in this instance
Well done Ollie. You are a very fine looking young man. As for the cemetery, part of it is not that bad looking, but that overgrowth is the worst I have ever seen. Whoever eventually cleans that up, will have one hell of a job. What is the story about that grass that the authorities do not want cut? Thank you very much Sue and GV and Ollie, for another great video. Have a great week ahead 😀
Hey there David from Cromer in North Norfolk here Fascinating stuff really There needs to be some kind of commission set up to look at every single cemetery in the UK and Ireland because some of them are just bloody shameful Even some celebratory head stones are in very poor shape FOR example Harry H Corbett of Steptoe and Son fame has a stone that stands on it's own in the open but the state of the actual stone is just not right Actually compared to some Harry's stone is immaculate and that's just the way our grave yards seem to be Surely some government money could be used for the complete over haul of our loved one's resting places Makes me angry when I see this Yet when I lived on the Greek island of Crete the cemeteries there are all in pristine condition Someone actually goes around on a regular basis and keeps an eye on things No litter no graffiti Total respect always So sorry I got right on my soap box there Really enjoyed your film Thankyou ☀️💫🌎♥️🕊️
The lop sided Fitzgerald vault is my wife's mothers people from Kilkee. They are all gone now! I keep the ivy off the vault but that's all I can do. The slab on top is in memory of Margaret Fitzgerald nee Belson who died in 1870.
Thank you Gerry, I hope that the local authorities can get in here and help with this graveyard. It's not a task for one person. Thank you for the information. RIP to all those interred here
@@SerenitySueGraveyards Here's one for you! The mound to the right of the sloping Fitzgerald tomb is also a Fitzgerald tomb. That's the tomb of Robert Fitzgerald, father of Capt. Charles Fitzgerald who was governor of western Australia circa 1850. Its amazing what you can find in remote grave yards!
Most of the vaults and mausoleums are covered with Hedera (Ivy) plants unable to look but it is a very large cemetery yard with more burials. May their souls rest in peace..
The cematary that your at is pretty cool, I JUST WISH ALL CEMATARIES COULD BE BETTER TAKEN CARE OF(ALL OVER THE WORLD). THE DEAD SHOULD BE SHOWN RESPECT 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 TO ALL THE FAMIES AND FRIENDS. THANK YOU SUE AWESOME JUST AWESOME.
You should bring a walking stick with you in your car. It may help you test ground in front of you that you can't see. Even an old tree branch that you find on the edge of a road.

Natural neglection is much better than done by humans. If the cemetery my daughter is in grows over I wouldn't mind.
I sooo agree @iamshotty ❤
@@JudyAllison-Richards ❤🙏
Nothing morbid about what you do. Everybody dies snd a fact you help us face with both humor and grace.
@larry1824 thanks so much ❤️
Ollie is a little cutie!! What a smart young man-a good helper! ❤❤❤❤ Your country is so beautiful and lush green!
Thank you so much!
What a handsome young man!!
Thank you ❤️

Ow Sue your Ollie is a sweetheart so lovely..Thanks Ollie for finding this cemetery a big hug to you 🤗 ❤

Ollie is lovely Sue. Mother nature slowly taking back the land is a shame as it looks a lovely place to be laid to rest xx
Thanks so much ❤️
Ollie is growing into quite a young man! Thank him for finding this wonderful cemetery and researching it.
Thanks Ben
Thanks again Sue for a wonderful video. Have a blessed day
You too Sheryl, it's in such a sad state
I find cemeteries so peaceful. Your videos allow us to visit so many of them without leaving our homes. Thank you.
Glad you like them!
Ollie is adorable! Reminds me of my grandson.❤😊
Ahh thanks 😊
Lovely looking boy Sue. Thank you for finding this cemetery. Such a shame its so overgrown.
Thanks very much ❤️
I like the concept of the well 🍀🙏 Hi Ollie 🤘
Lots of these wells all over Ireland
It's so sad😢😢 .Right on the other side of the stone wall, a road and houses. I wonder if those who put in vaults and Mausaleums ever thought how they would end up? It is odd what bad shape with the dates not being that old. Alot of grave slabs, wow, great video, thanx , enjoyed it.❤😊❤😊
It's a shame. I hate seeing these once beautiful places, completely forgotten
How sad that things were allowed to get so overgrown. Very interesting, tho. Thank you, Olly and Sue&GV 😊
Thanks toms, how beautiful this place could be
Thanks Ollie!!! Good job
Thanks Sheryl ❤️

Goodness Ollie has grown up since we saw him last, and he’s more handsome than ever! Thanks for the great find, Ollie!
You are so kind
@@SerenitySueGraveyardsI just love when we get to see him! My own boys are growing so fast as well, so it’s bittersweet I know.

There's a school right opposite, it's such a shame
Depraved???!!!!! I think you mean derelict.

Yes indeed it does, thank you Liz x
So sad that the ivy and briars can't be trimmed back on occasion so one could read names and to protect them from collapse. So pretty and green there. Thank you Sue and GV!!
That's all that needs to be done, I think it's sad to see
Looking forward to the premier here in the US. I'm sure it'll be lovely. Thanks for all your hard work, Sue!
Its amazing how nature takes over so quickly. Great video Sue ❤
It really is!
Fantastic video Sue, thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Ollie. Handsome young man.
Thanks
So sad to see these neglected graveyards, but thanks for sharing Sue (and GV) . Glad you kept safe despite the dangers!
Thanks for watching!
Long time since you have been on Ollie 😊 Looking good😊 Sad about the grave yard😢
Thanks 👍
Nice find, Oillie! Interesting cemetery and beautiful countryside.
Thanks Don

I have seen graveyards that have been well maintained with the help of the historical society, hopefully they will do the same here
@SerenitySueGraveyards hopefully 🙂 it's looks like a gorgeous place

I can't find the words for this disgraceful mess Sue, and I have doubts that the well is still being used! Eww...Well done Ollie🤩. Take care, Deb of Oz XXX
It's in an awful mess, I doubt the well os used because it's so overgrown and very dangerous to get to, how sad, all our customs are being forgotten
❤😊❤ Great job Miss Sue
Thanks ❤️
Very sad Sue. Thanks for all your hard work. Love from Africa.xxxx
Thank you ❤️
God Bless Sue Great Video Like always
Thank you, God bless
Well hello Olly! Nice to see ya and so happy you are still hanging out with your Ma. You are growing up so fast and sure your Ma is proud of you❤.
Sue, thanks for taking us around and I just have to say, I'd be digging into that ivy if I even thought it would not collapse on top of me! Maybe they aren't clearing it out because it is the only thing holding some of those vaults' roofs together 😮
Be careful as always and thanks again!
Yes, it's definitely holding them up for now anyway
Hello you both. If I don't see you both before thanksgiving wishing you a happy and great day.
Same to you! ❤️
This graveyard is in a wonderfully decadent and overgrown state. Very beautiful even though untended and chaotic.
Thank you ❤️
Oh my. I wonder why that got that bad but others aren't
I've no idea, it's so overgrown now
Great video Sue and thank you so much for sharing, it is really a sad situation to see a cemetery being so disrespected.
It sure is
These are horrible. I didn't realize that there were so many covered by ivy & thorns
So many forgotten
It's beautiful how nature claims back what is rightfully It's own...when left unattended.
Thank You, Sue...
I'd be trying to find a way to clear it up a bit. I have free reign over about 30 cemeteries. It's mostly Amish cemeteries and a few historical cemeteries. Plus the cemetery my daughter is buried in.
@carriebaker5161 Sorry to hear about your daughter.... my deepest condolences

Its great how the council complains about the cleanliness of your grave and headstone but they don't care about the cleanliness of the gaveyard
Oh, believe me, I'm fuming here, especially when I share the next video
I love walking graveyards to look at the history they can tell us. I would like to write down some names to find out what they did in life if I can in council records if I can.
Well, at least you know no one is going to mess with those vaults. Looks like a dangerous place to walk through.
That's so true
Creighton!! Might be related??
Oh really, maybe 😊
Sue your son is so charming! I am confused about why the community would allow a cemetery to get that overgrown. There are attractive new homes across the street. An overgrown cemetery across the street must be lowering their property values. I don’t understand why they don’t care
Me either
It should be up to the council to get the graveyard up to scratch.
Next video you'll see how a council work, it will make you mad!!
What is saying that they allowed that to happen but I love the Celtic crosses
Lots of thos celtic crosses in Ireland
Thanks!
Thanks very much for your kind donation
Oh my goodness, Ollie is just too cute!
Thanks ❤️
Glad that your son walked with you! "Bring up a child in the way he should go!"
Thank you
Handsome young man! Ollie is.
Thanks Sylvia ❤️
Let Me Get this straight a Man Was cleaning off what was he's and got in trouble How can This Be Its His
Next video, he painted it, this will make your blood boil

Yes

Yes, it's like they stuck the sign up and have done nothing about it
If i lived near i would be out there cleaning the grounds
Me too

It's called Japanese knot weed. If you get sap from it, it burns you

This place needs a flock of hungry goats to eat the overgrowth. It’s still beautiful but sad.
That would actually be a great idea here
I wold actually wish for my grave to end up overgrown like that. My style.
I'd love that too, have a big oak tree beside me
Lon Chaney, Jr.'s mother's maiden name was Creighton; and his real name was Creighton Tull Chaney.

You have explored much older burial grounds that are better preserved than this one. Some of them are not that old as it goes. It’s very sad.
I know, that's why I can't really understand how it's the way it is, I do love nature but to me, this is neglect
It is certainly a old cemetry
It is ❤️
Handsome young fellow!
Thank you ❤️

That line of overgrown, decayed mausoleums reminds me of old ruined German bunkers on the Siegfried Line.
I'd say there's more in there somewhere
@@SerenitySueGraveyards Right! Kind of like Easter Eggs!
That cemetery is an appalling mess. How could anyone let it get so bad and live themselves?
I have no idea, unfortunately I've seen it a lot
That is a sad place, try to get out of there fast.
Thanks
Ollie done well
Thanks
Ivy is amazing strong
Yes, definitely
I have to commend the person who covered the coffin in the plastic. Maybe it was the best they could do or afford. It does offer some protection.
It will allow some protection
💚
Thanks ❤️
You should bring a walking stick with you in your car. It may help you test ground in front of you that you can't see. Even an old tree branch that you find on the edge of a road.
That's true
I would love if you and Grave Visitations came to Philly! You would love Laurel Hill cemetery! And all the old colonial graveyards we have too.
Maybe some day, please God 🙏
Does Ireland get earthquakes. The ground seems to shift around?
No earthquakes here
What a shame to see it all wasting away 😞
