    Now that I have watched all of your videos I am ready to comment. My grandmother was born in 1890, yes 1890, my father in 1912 and I'm a 50's baby boomer. I grew up around and still live surrounded by old stuff. I love watching your videos. I love the memories, the education, the calmness. It is so nice that you don't add the sensational nor the conflict. I look forward to watching more.

      My paternal grandfather was born in 1888 and my paternal grandmother in 1890. Seriously, both in 1888 and 1890. My father was born in 1927. But I am a Generation X er. I also grew up around antiques and explored my maternal great grandparents' house next to my maternal grandparents' house (where my other great grandparents' lived there too). The oldest antique I own is a Victorian mourning jewelry lapel pin of my paternal great grandfather from Italy.

    You're making me think about an old two-hole outhouse i know of out side of Searchlight, NV. on what was once a large mining operation. They had several buildings there for the workers who mined there and ran the mill. It's been said that miners often stashed the high-grade specimens that they found in the mine in them. Usually in a bag tied to a string, which often slid out of the crack that the knot of the string was wedged into and fell with a plop🙂There is a huge can dump on the property that i've found old coins and bar tokens in, but nary a bottle. So now you got me thinking.

    I spoke with an archaeoligist friend who was in on a dig at Fort Anne. He was assigned to one of the latrines. He found at least one interesting artifact, IIRC it was some sort of bronze talcum powder box from the early 18th century. Everything organic is well and truly broken down after so long.

    I watched this dig while I ate lunch in front of my computer here in Billings MT. you've given me an idea-- not sure how good of an idea it is but here goes-- I'm seriously thinking of introducing myself to a some people on the other end of town, the older part. Maaybee, 1 or 2 will let me dig in their backyards. 😛🤭🙄 I worked at a church day care for a little over 20 years. About 1/2 way through my stay, the church had some work done. when the floor was dug up the workmen found a big chunk of a cut cow bone and some small fragments of pottery-- nothin special. the bone freaked the workers and us employees out.. every one thought it was human. during the 1918 flu epidemic the church was used as a hospital. thanks for taking us along.

    • @BestSellers2122
      @BestSellers2122 Рік тому

      I think the reason the eyes usually aren’t with the doll heads is because they are made of separate pieces of porcelain and then placed behind the cut outs of the face. The eyes probably fell out as the other organic parts of the doll decomposed. Makes me wonder if they weren’t maybe in the dirt around where the doll head was found.
