    I saw this little house before. I had heard that it was being auctioned off a year or so ago. Thanks for the video, I enjoyed it very much. I get misty too when thinking of days long gone. Always & Forever, Forever & Always, Loved & Remembered, "The Man" & "The Legend Elvis Presley" !!!

    I am so glad Elvis made it good and got money to help his family. My moms family were sharecroppers and it was a hard life

    Great video, Steve. Elvis would've probably been blown away knowing that far into the future there would be people trying to chronicle his spur of the moment trips back to the places he grew up. That story of the guy seeing Elvis in a Lincoln with a girl in the 70s probably came about when Elvis was telling her about the places he had grown up and about his humble origins. I can just imagine him saying to her, "C'mon, honey. Lemme show you." before coming down from his bedroom at Graceland to a car and a nice little "sentimental journey".
    He seemed like the kind of guy who would do that. Always trying to connect with his roots and wanting to show someone how far he had come...partially because he could hardly believe it himself. Maybe he was trying, at some level, to reconnect with that long ago time and place...and with the person he had once been.

    That's an amazing find !! I never heard this story before . Seeing places like this makes you realize why Elvis was so humble and giving . There's not many famous people that cared like he did . Thanks so much for sharing this great video !! Love it !!

    Hi just been watching you on Billy spar guy video about the pippin ride and he had your link on so I thought I would have a look. So glad I did. This video was so interesting. All that history you found. You even found the old sharecroppers village and house. I will be looking forward to catching up on all the rest of your video's. Thank you.

    Wonderful!
    Still so much that has not been researched & documented from Elvis' early years.
    Myself and a friend a couple years ago spend some time in the Park Hill area (just north of the old Shake Rag area) talking with older black folks from their area that documented the Presley's time in their community.
    Sam Bell himself over the years has spoke in detail about some of this. And the folks that we met and spoke with backed up everything (and more) that Sam has disclosed.
    I've already shared some of what we learned with other people that have researched Elvis history for over 30 years and their minds were blown.
    There is still so much to be known that has unfortunately been overlooked, ignored, and even worse, lost to history.
    It's nice to know there are other people, like yourself, out there that Care enough to dig *Beyond* what has already been shared by other documentarians, to dig a Little Deeper finding more specifics and info that will fill in more pieces of the puzzle for future Generations.

    You are doing such a great job on all the research you are doing putting a lot of time into this. Thanks. It is greatly appreciated. Always nice to learn something of elvis and his family. Elvis. Had a dream. And he made it happen. He loved his moma. And saw the hard work she and his dad had did. And he wanted them to have an easy life so he made it happen. He was blessed by God and he praised God every concert by singing a gospel song. He was giving thanks and praising his lord. He did TCB. Gods blessing was on hin

    I often wondered what kinda of homes that Elvis mamma and daddy came from. I’ve not ran up on any documentary’s about that. They came from hard beginnings and wish his mom could have enjoyed life at Graceland longer. Elvis was a kind a giving person and I beleive that’s why he was like he was. He never forgot where he came from.

Forbus claimed to have it and in 2014 he was going to shows two stills in his "American Trilogy" book but I'm not able to find anything of that around, including that phantomatic book...
