My daddy is the man on the right is my daddyDavid J Compton

Well done sir!

Love the videos Andy and co.

Awesome video

We usually went to the Family Drive-in for movies and once in a while to the Rives or the Martin or the Roxy in Martinsville, even though we lived a mile from Bassett. I remember going to the Stone only once. Someone in the balcony set off a firecracker and I thought it was a gun! I wasn't anxious to return. But I dearly loved Bassett, and it pains me to see what has happened to it.

Andy, I'm gonna start calling you the "Ron Howard" of Bassett. Love all these documentaries you and your team are doing. A job very well done. Thank you so much for sharing all these stories.

I love their Gaither Christian album

Love their music to this day!

How sad that these historical monuments have been allowed to disintegrate. This history will be lost unless more is done to preserve it. It looks like many of the homes are already irreparable. Has no one else taken an interest in preserving this history? I read the book that was written about the Hairston family. It was very interesting. I’d love to visit these places.

Where in Bassett is this?

She was, and IS, a true American hero. Thank you, Ms. Lacks.

Incredible...

When I think about all of these countries where people are starving and malnourished, I wonder why kudzu and other invasive edibles, including perennials, are not planted in those places as ever-growing sources of food for the people and animals. If it grows a foot a day as reported, the people in need will always have enough to eat. All parts of kudzu are edible, except the seeds and seed pods. The leaves, flowers, and the tender ends of the vines can be eaten.

awesome

Do Cassius Marcellus Clay next. It’s unbelievable that there aren’t tons of movies about him!

My Great Grandfather was born in that house. Henry Hairston Hurt.

i’m really curious on what the henry county school system used to be and all the schools that’s been used in henry county i was wondering if u could make a video on that is that’s not too much

Peter TP Hairston is in my ancestry tree as my 11th grandfather or so

I’m a double Hairston and I’m so invested in my roots

This sounds more like the reason that the USA colonies wanted to separate from the Brits.

this is a great story!

Fascinating. THANKS

Thanks for the great information, please keep the video’s coming.

Beautiful video!!!!❤ Thanks for giving props to one of the greatest composers and musicians of all time🎉

Thought I might have been in this one. I did several of those regional choir things around this time…and I see my cousin Ashley Vipperman prominently in this particular video.

Thank you so much! I spent my childhood in Bassett and my teen years in Patrick County, with family connections to the Hairstons through my g-g-grandfather Willie Penn's sister Eliza who married Samuel William Hairston. This video has been a wonderful tour.

Thank you for posting this, Benjamin was my great uncle and he is still missed and talked about. ❤️

Very interesting!

do you have the raw video of this?

My all time hero! 🤘🤘🤘

Incredibly well done, as are all your videos

My Mom had her nose surgery there in the 90's and I remember going there with her after she stayed the weekend on site in recovery.

Wiley Post taught my Aunt Pearl Carter Scott of Marlow, Ok. to fly his plane when she was 14 years old. Her daddy bought her her first plane for her 16th birthday. She is in the Okey city aviation hall of fame

Are you related to them?

Very interesting.

Brigham smoked dude.

Awesome. Thank you for this.

Would love to visit Stratford Hall someday. James, from Kentucky.

This could totally be built in Minecraft or Minetest, complete with the waterfall and everything! Also, I really wish I could have a crack at cleaning this up, now that it's been digitized!

Is this where they hide the kids in basement cages 14 year's going on 15 I've still never gotten an answer Hmmmm

Anyone remember what year McDonald's opened in Collinsville by Biscuitville?

Pronounce Hairston correctly! If you know the history you surely know the correct pronunciation!

Thanks, everyone for the comments - they have been....interesting!

The house probably has termites and asbestos.

This was just wonderful! Thank you for posting it here in you tube.

Well done, as always! Isaac Chrisman was my 4x-great-grandmother Jane Scott's first husband. After he was killed she married Nathaniel Hix and my line comes from there.

THANK YOU for the info!!
