I count 3 burials and based on the age of the crypt, the coffins have dissolved and the lead inner coffin has melted and exposed the bones. Bones are harder than the lead so they remain intact. The heat that those tombs can hold in summers and warm days melt the soft lead. So that is why most wooden coffins are gone in 100 years and the lead starts to sag and deform.

We get hot here... and in Houston it's hot and humid...summer days 105F or hotter in July thru August. 41C with humidity 95% that makes it very sauna like...We have mausoleums but I can't imagine going to a cemetery and it smelling like dead bodies. The doors on them are solid and wouldn't the gases have to get out? I know that hurricanes and the flooding will cause coffins to pop up and float and sometimes the lids open. So, many don't want to be buried in the ground but It's all gross in the aftermath.

My family has been in the funeral industry for over 70 yrs. Having said that, above ground burials can have its challenges because temps change cold/hot. Caskets have a rubber seal & if they are "sealed" and interred in a mausoleum think pressure cooker. Lots of things to think about if your final resting place is a mausoleum.

@@ravendixon1099 And when you’re put in the ground you not only have to pay for someone to dig a hole, but you have to additionally pay for a ‘vault’ which does absolutely nothing. Come back in a few years and the casket is floating and your loved one is a blob
@ravendixon1099

@@lynnkiser7728 Somewhat true. Ppl spend massive dollars for a casket when they should be spending it on the vault. The body doesn't turn into a "blob" because of water but instead from the bacteria inside the body. Decomposition can be delayed if the embalmer does an exceptional job. About 60% of the population is opting for cremation. Lavish funerals are what our elders wanted..not so much now. As for opening a grave, most operators are in a union which cemeteries in larger cities must employ hence the cost is higher.

That fenced in one reminded me of a Swiss Chalet with a balcony from that angle. I wonder if the Whiskers had whiskers? I liked the spelling of that Agnes… my Grandmother from Scotland’s name was Agnes. Such young teenagers. 😢 But, older ppl, as well. Interesting juxtaposition. You can tell when ppl were buried before the habit of embalming happened. You can see staining from decomposition from the old coffins. ⚰️ Rest easy…. 💐 Thank you, GV “Next, on the Adventures of GV….” 😊 💚💚💚💚💚

The barrel vault mausoleum contents look like natural decomposition of wooden coffins has taken place spilling the ontents. Lead coffins are a bit later coming, so reflect in the other mosoleim. As in many of the other ones you looked at . it looks like someone was opening the sardine cans looking for valuables. The newer one looks like a later victorian model. I know the internal vaults are concrete. These vaults probably haven't had maintenance for a hundred years. However they give you a picture of how burial practices changed over time.

Then a long and dangerous journey across 3000 miles of ocean, sea sickness may be, little food and water, storms and perhaps being an indentured servant meaning you’d be a slave for 7 years. The the courage and terrible sadness of all you Love behind never to be seen again? Wow, that’s very tough! My GGGGrandparents landed in Philadelphia in 1815. Alexander was born in Northern Ireland in 1772 so he was 43 when he left all he knew and his wife Rachel. He died in 1860 and I have both their photographs taken late 1850s. I’m very fortunate to have them. The reasons the immigrants had for leaving doesn’t make it any easier. This is why our United States has been a beacon to many. I will add the legal ones.
