My mother was a young girl at the time of the tornado and lived 8 miles Northeast of Gainesville, near Whitehall. When telling us about the actual day of the tornado she spoke of debris falling from the sky and at least one instance where months afterwards, a dog had dragged up human bones. She was vivid in her description of the event and how that my Grandpa and others went to Gainesville the next day to help in any way that they could.
LOVE THIS ❤❤❤
Love it
I'm writing a historical fiction set from 1774-1836, and this video really came in handy because I was STRUGGLING with writing realistic letters! Thank you!
"MANY PEOPLE MAY BE SURPRISED TO HEAR IT BUT SPAIN WON THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION! I AGREE THAT LAFAYETTE AND THE FRENCH WERE VALIANT AND IMPORTANT IN THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION BUT IN FACT, ON THE MAINLAND, SPAIN FOUGHT MORE BATTLES, PROVIDED MORE TROOPS AND WON MORE VICTORIES! AND SPAIN FOUGHT BRITAIN IN THE WEST INDIES, SOUTH AMERICA AND EUROPE!" - Kathleen DuVal historian 🪶
they did put a lot of effort into writing letters back then. it was more personal, compared to the present.
having a writing box will come in handy, thanks.
We should still vote with little pieces of paper in glass bowls and then be allowed to watch while someone unbiased counts them lol.
wow i just wrote a business letter to no one to figure out how they wrote in the regency era, i wrote it about a sale of 3 ounces of snuff at a gathering and how much it cost and where the payment could be made to. it was a fun exercise in my attempt to be more of a regency dandy
You did not mention that many years after the Fox family moved from the house, an earthquake occurred. Then, behind a sealed brick wall, the body of the alleged spirit, which communicated with the Fox girls was discovered. Please see Barbara Weisberg's book: Talking to the Dead or review the contemporary primer parapsychology historical peer research papers on the topic from Dr. Carlos Alvarado.
Very Well done. Thank you❤️
I love the song at teh beginning!
nice vid! love the energy from the guy from the puppet museum
That's wild. I knew a nice chunk of history about Georgia I thought. I never knew Oglethorpe was actually against all segregation and rallied the natives and African Americans together with the settlers. Also kept the Spanish in their place for territorial domination. Too bad the bigots and greedy wanted more money than liberty. Thanks for the lesson.
Is 1066 AD, boy. Enough with those PC words. ANNO DOMINI.
I am 69 years old, I remember when I was a child my family what to Williamsburg and seeing a demonstration of how to use sealing was and seals.
Is there a shorter version of this to show in a class for my Drama students, please?
how do they use there magic today?
Somewhere between my 33rd and 38th great grandfather, there was a knight who fought in the norman conquest and the crusades, so cool!
No relation to her, but I live a stone's throw away from the lake named for her. This story always has intrigued me.
The tapestry is odd, the armor does not look like chain mail. Also, it does not hang over the knees but device to trousers instead. Could’ve been some kind of other armor that was temporarily used During that time and location
Truth be told most soliders would of been happy playing cards together and fist fighting for fun
This is the scariest tornado in ga history
Hi is there a store that carries tutorial book or books on Round Hand Penmanship?
Wonderful video! I'm looking how mourning garments changed after WW1

Keep laughing I insist
I think stays would be a better alternative to today’s bra. I would much rather hold my girls up from underneath than hang them from my shoulders.
Finna fry it up in a mess o grease
It wasn't just in the back country in SC. Francis Marion fought mostly in the low country and midlands.
My ancestors fought for the CSA(from GA) and I have read some of the historical letters that were sent home to their families. They complained about dysentery, being VERY COLD(needing wool socks), and...wishing for a fresh piece of fruit(like an apple or a peach). One of them died in camp...of measles. It was a miserable time!
Great lecture and thank you for presenting this one not many people know about Spain's contribution the American revolution. What were the resources used for this presentation?
This tornado shook a large part of the state of Florida, leaving many painful memories for the survivors
Would love to hear an episode on Washington GA as a standalone!
Well done! Thank you.
Yes, Fred Astaire was in Vaudeville. He started performing at age 4 but after he and his sister Adele got their act going they moved to playing on Broadway until 1933. The act stayed together until 1937 until Adele retired. After that Astaire made the move Hollywood.
Just a thought popping into my head. Could the snail reflect the golden ratio, Fibonacci founding nature?
Yes I am a descendant from my grandfather and I need help with getting my benefits and CDIB card for me and my children and grandchildren

If you want to know what a child is thinking give them puppets
True! Also, if you want to know what any one of any age- childhood and older, is feeling or has felt, give them a puppet.
Dude! Couldn’t even find the video. Figure it out
When I visited San Agustín the first city built in the current United States, as Spaniard I felt very proud. Besides seeing so many flags not only of US but also of Spain was wonderful. I drove from Miami to Washington DC and really the most kind people I have ever found in all my life (54 years old) have been the American people all along this trip. So good behaviour, kindness and happynes. Wonderful people. Thank You!. God Bless USA and Viva España!
My great-great grandparents died in the tornado. John and Mollie Kimbrell
Little reason have the inhabitants of Georgia and Alabama to complain that the government of the United States has been remiss or neglectful in protecting them from Indian hostilities, the fact is directly the reverse! The people of Alabama and Georgia are now suffering the recoil of their own unlawful weapons and backsliding. Georgia sir, Georgia by trampling upon the faith of our national treaties with the Indians Indian tribes, and by subjecting them to her state laws, first set the example of that policy which is now in the process of consummation by this Indian war, In setting this example, she bade defiance to the authority of the government of the nation; she nullified your laws; she set at naught your executive guardians of the common constitution of the land. To the mockery of signing other treaties with you, which at the first moment when it shall suit your purpose, you will again tear to tatters and scatter to the four winds of heaven the constitution, till the Indian race shall be extinct upon this continent, and it shall become a problem, beyond the solution of antiquaries and historical societies, what the red man of the forest was! There’s your British blood, your anglo Saxon race! Men who are driven from the civilized portion of the world for their crimes! There’s a gang for you! Texas is just the place for them! -Anti Texas Legion Remonstrance Benjamin Lundy and Some Free Northern States 1846 speech by John Quincy Adams on Georgia

This was a wonderful video. Thank you.
Enjoying hearing abouvt our local Gainesville / Hall County history and especially about the Norton family.
What's the earliest reference - visual or text - for using two ropes? I'm dubious about the legend that 'Double Dutch' was introduced by settlers from the Netherlands. The earliest evidence I could find is in the 1951 Scottish short film 'The Singing Street'.
If I lived in Charlotte NC in 1824, what Post office would I have used? I have been trying to search for an answer with not much luck.
I loved how she said “piled on” when she was regarding the additional clothing she would wear after putting on her chamois and pantaloons! It’s so true!
