Cemetaries are interesting. So much history. My father dragged us around Europe from cemetary to cemetary learning about family genealogy. European cemetaries usually have playgrounds in them so that is where we were while they were looking fo family graves. My mother would talk to people an we would even meet relatives. We were related to the chief of police in Luxembourg. Even went to Lichtenstein an found some. Weird but wonderful childhood while my dad was stationed overseas

I found a old cemetery in Elberton Georgia about 22 years ago while I was out walking in the forest deer hunting, there were at least ten gravestones if I remember correctly and they weren't actually tombstones they were basically big rocks that had epitaphs carved into them and I believe they were all dated in the 1800's, I also remember there being these very strange looking leafless tree's growing amongst the headstones and it being the only place in that forest where I seen those particular little trees, I really wish I had a camera with me at the time, I'm hoping to get back down there one day to see if it's still there, anyway great video guys

They fought brother father cousin friend.it was a very sad and tragic time in the history of the United States as I went back and researched my family history I found that my family killed my family. Their friends killed them and they killed their friends. To remember them no matter what side they fought for we must always remember and respect the passion that they had for what they believed in. That was what helped the United States become the country that we are. Was a passion of belief. Thank you once again.

That is so sad! All those lives, friends, parents, children, aunts, uncles, sisters, and brothers.. I believe that the civil war was a senseless war. Slavery should've never happened, and they fought to keep it going. But, God in his infinite power and grace, stopped it. So many lives taken in the process. Now they lay there lost to time, left to decay as the rest of humanity changed and grew. But you, Robert, go to these places, all covered up, and left behind, and you speak their names one more time. Letting us see, and hear their names, and we imagine what their lives were like. It's truly heartbreaking, and awe inspiring at the same time. On the behalf of everyone else who watches these videos, I thank you for what you do! I'm not able to go to these places, but I feel like I'm there with you.

This is a bittersweet expedition of discovery. When a person dies, with thankfully few exceptions, he or she leaves behind such sadness and sense of loss. Because of that, the survivors want to mark their profound emotions and to honor the deceased and over time, the inevitable usually gets swept up with the fact that the old adage "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust" prevails. I imagine most of us wnt to erect a Great Pyramid or the equivalent to our dead loved ones but we bow to our traditions and mark a grave in the manner of our beliefs, ability to afford and so on. Then, time steps in and we return to the soil and only the historians keep track of us out of some around curiosity and desire to remember their stories. The trees grow, the markers topples and that's the way it goes. You guys were so respectful.

It is an overwhelming feeling-I live near Arlington National Cemetery and have family members and friends buried there, and when I look out over the sea of headstones, the knowledge that so many lives and stories rest there is mind boggling.

I am so pleased to see your appreciation of people who lived so long ago. I've been doing genealogical research for the last eleven years. One of my main goals was to record all the old family stories for future generations of the family (like, as an example, my great grandmother seeing/hearing Abraham Lincoln give a campaign speech when she was a young girl). I wrote about my family's personalities, good points, talents, occupations, and even their life disappointments in some cases for a well-rounded picture of what they were really like. I didn't want to eventually pass out of this world with future generations of the family thinking our ancestors were nothing more than headstones in a cemetery. I also got all the old family photos identified and posted on my tree so they could never be lost to "File 13". I hope I did a good job -- Diane.

Everyone resting here played a part in their community. Some in small ways, some bigger than others but they all contributed. Just as we are all contributing today. They are part of history, part of the fabric of this nation. In the future a family member of theirs and of ours may want to inquire about their heritage. Many people are doing the work, taking pictures at graveyards, recording all this information, births & deaths, family stories. The work is being provided online for those who wish to know their heritage in the future. Bless all of those that do this work on their own time for others because they love their fellow man! One last thing, they may be forgotten, we may be forgotten in time but God knows his children and he knows where each and everyone of us are at all times.

I believe my spirit guides lead me here. This is my history. We are all history and apart of each other’s history. Through my awakening I’m realizing we are creating history. We must remember our roots in order to rewrite our future. My ancestors must’ve wanted me to virtually visit them. I love my ancestral team. So grateful you’ll helped me remember them. Seeing and hearing the names i can visually Witt my third eye see their walking lives. I love it.

I love to stroll through old grave yards, reading the headstones, I get a deep appreciation for these people who were before us (family), believing in their country and most importantly our Heavenly Father, but I have a great sadness thinking about the state our once great nations were and what these people would think now if they could see. We've let them down because we have lost sight of who we are and why we're here sadly :(

What a beautiful tree! I am always touched when the dates indicate that the person lived through the Civil War. To think they went through it, saw it and lived to tell the tale. Many of them anyway.

I had forgotten just how beautiful the trees are when draped in Spanish Moss. I grew up in the pan-handle of FL and climbed in a few trees with SM to day dream. That and my parents and baby brother are the only things I miss about FL. I didn't see this when you posted it, it's 1 year 5 months old, but I had to write about my memories dredged up by the sight of Spanish Moss. Thank you for helping me remember some of my 71+ years.

@@donfulton5765 There are C.S.A. Army veterans on both sides of my family tree (49th North Carolina Troops). My Paternal ancestor survived Picket's Charge at Gettysburg and collected a veteran's pension from NC after the War of Northern Aggression. Two of my Maternal ancestors signed up for a year and served honorably, until the Army extended their enlistment. They deserted to their home in the Smoky Mountains, hid there until the end and were not caught (a hanging offense). Many of the Scotch-Irish in that side of my family refused to enlist, and wanted only to be left alone. They were Isolationists, did not trust the Government and had the same attitude during the Revolutionary War.

I am taking some comfort in knowing that during the time the town flourished, people recognized the soldiers for the heroes they were, even though they are now forgotten.

Consider prepping a back pack with butcher paper, charcoal, a strong light, and a spade for your adventures. Then you'd be ready for anything.
