STORY
Welcome to a journey deep within the heart of Virginia, where a once-thriving noble house has been in solitude for over four decades. Join us as we venture into the forgotten corridors and dusty rooms of this magnificent estate, seeking answers to the disappearance of its last inhabitant.
Once home to the illustrious Sanders family, a prosperous American lineage with noble roots, this opulent mansion holds a wealth of untold stories. Eugene and Agnes, devoted parents, nurtured their two children within these very walls, creating cherished memories that echo through time.
Eugene, a former military man, carved a new path in the world of insurance, building a successful business that showered his family with the luxuries of life. Their happiness seemed complete within the embrace of this majestic residence.
As we step further into the forgotten mansion's halls, we discover peculiar details that raise intrigue. A small cemetery at the front of the house hints at the family's deep-rooted ties to this land, but what secrets does it hold? And what led to the sudden vanishing of the Sanders family, leaving this grand dwelling to decay?
Our exploration will delve into the hidden corners of history, piecing together the puzzle of this abandoned noble house. As we unearth forgotten relics and delve into long-forgotten diaries, we hope to shed light on the mysteries that shroud the Sanders family and their connection to this hauntingly neglected home.
Join us on this riveting adventure as we uncover the forgotten mansion's secrets and unlock the truth behind its enigmatic abandonment. Prepare to be captivated by a tale of love, ambition, and the inexplicable forces that conspire to keep this noble house steeped in mystery. Don't miss the chance to witness a piece of history reborn from the shadows as we reveal the untold story of the Sanders family and their forgotten legacy.

Thanks!
"Nature is strange sometimes she takes back what is hers and she doesn't care about your possessions." I LOVE that!!
Love the rocking chairs in almost every room. I grew up with a favorite one. I'd rock for hours while growing up as a child. I suspect my mother rocked me when I was an infant. Interesting house! Thanks for the tour.
The vinegar bottles were used for the canning of foods, as you saw the canning jars shortly after. I grew up in a house like this, the upstairs original toilet had a date of 1910 in it, and the house originally had gas lighting. That toilet had an elevated tank on the wall with a pipe that went down to connect to the seat area. In 1930 according to the inside electrical box is when the electric had been installed, using those old glass screw in fuses. We sold it in 2003 and it was removed and a new place built on the lot in Tampa. The old plaster falling down has asbestos in it. I personally replaced such a roof in our old home, and retro fitted it with drywall instead. Typically the plaster was a sand concrete coat, then that was plastered over for the smooth finish. The asbestos was in the plaster.
Hi Lesley and Danny! The "box" that you came across "north, south, east and west" is a roof television antenna controller. You would set the dial to the direction you needed to have the best reception of certain television stations. The control would then cause the roof antenna to turn into the direction therefore obtaining the clearest picture on the television.
I have many things I saw that we have still. Clock is in my Garage and the Hammer was over 60 years old and I still use it. I did enjoy your video, thanks!
Beth here, simply love your narrating, and Denny is great at taking the video's, keep them coming. thank you.
I accidentally found your account and I’m just in awe with the passion and respect you have towards these beautiful buildings of our history. I’m in the UK and I’d love to see some of our history on your channel, the Victorian era is fascinating to me. I love being able to appreciate these places with you guys! Stay safe. X
Being from Virginia I loved this video. The dryer was on the porch and the washing machine was in the kitchen which was very common in those days in such a big house. The Electrolux Vacuum Cleaner is a Model G and from the early 1960's (one of the best models ever made by Electrolux) and the other vacuum found in the bedroom was a Hoover Suitcase Model made probably in the late 60's to early 70's. You guys are awesome and I so enjoy each and every video...
Right.. you didn't have the same venting, you didn't have the dryer heating up an already hot kitchen,and if in the south it was warm enough to have it on the airy porch! Not to mention you could be putting some items up on a clothesline. It absolutely makes perfect sense!!
Us Army (green wool coat) The man in the photo wearing a uniform was the 1940's & 1950's US Navy.. The house itself probably predates the Eugene Sanders family.. In years gone by in the more rural areas (like farms) they would have cemeteries on their property for their family.. I would think the cemetery is from an earlier generation of the family or maybe the Sanders bought it from the original family.. the bricks in the fireplace look to be handmade local bricks and the slates in the walls was a way of building in the late 19th century and early 20th century.. Love your videos.
I don't know about other states but in Tennessee many families today have their own family graveyard. My uncle has one at the lower end of his yard and many of his brothers and their family members are buried there. It's cheaper than buying a plot.
I’m thinking, since the names on the headstones aren’t members of the Sanders family, this cemetery belongs to the adjacent property. Farm families usually situated their cemeteries at the far end of the property, not so close to the house. 🌺
I love this story! I was also born and raised in Virginia! Thank you for sharing! I love everything you do! Aot of old houses in Virginia have old cemeteries! Nice find!
Very interesting!
I love how you bring these old houses back to life with your narrative.
Your delight & respect of things so endearing. Mom taught you well. Love your brotherly love & fun❤
❤ , I just adore his vivid imagination ! He is so filled up with love ...
Ta😢❤@@edielawrence97
If it's not far away maybe I want to come with you two to see an ancient, antique but beautiful house..I really like that bottle of jam..greetings from Indonesia😍
Hello I watch your videos all the time. I love the fact that you get close to items for people that are visually impaired to be able to see the items that you are looking at how you talk softly so I can put your videos on and fall asleep. And I love that you share what's inside cupboards a lot of people don't do kitchens for some reason and I think the kitchens addicts in basements are the most interesting areas just want to thank you so much for sharing
. Even though I don't write over all the time I still watch the both of you all the. So once again thank you so much for bringing the camera close enough for people that are visually impaired to be able to see the items that you're talking.
I grew up in Chicago Illinois and almost all the houses in my neighborhood are brick . It is very expensive to have brick home so a lot of people didn’t use them . Love you to together been watching Bros of Decay since the beginning when Lesley was with his brother! Stay safe and keep exploring ❤
Eu no Brasil vendo ,aqui todas as casas são de tijolos! E cimento ! Achamos mais seguras ,a minha casa nova fizemos en 2 anos!❤
Thanks, Lesley and Danny, what an amazingly lovely place this would have been! x
Always love the explorations! I had a good chuckle when I heard, "why would you judge a dairy cow?" after looking at the book title "Judging dairy cows" . I've always assumed everyone had county fairs and cattle judging but perhaps it's a U.S. thing, but I find it fascinating seeing the viewpoint of others seeing a U.S. house.
What an interesting explore! The picture you held at abt 43:28 is at a property called “Wakefield” where George Washington was born in 1732. The house pictured is a reconstruction to commemorate the original birthplace home. Lesley & Danny you did an excellent job - thanks for sharing!
Hi Leslie and Danny…..It was a very common practice throughout the ages for landowners to have a family burial plot on their property. Even today in many places, especially old farm estates, a present day owner of a property can be laid to rest in these antique grave spots even if it originally didn’t belong to their family. The present owner/family must simply request it. I love watching you learn about American culture. This tour showed so many vintage items that are quite valuable today. Loved it!
The tiny flag with gold stars represents the death of veterans that died in combat from WW1 & WW2. Americans.
I wonder if it an African custom. I'm from the Caribbean and this the custom there as well as in Africa.
As an American, I appreciate your efforts recording various parts of our history. You did a very good job given your limited historical experience here in the US. I can only imagine how badly I would do if I were in your shoes in your home country touring and explaining things.
Much love. ❤
Their innocence is beautiful. I think their age has a lot to do with much of it. Their vocabulary another. I love hearing what they think things are. Thinking a noble family lived in a 2500 square foot house. Questioning why an old furnace is covered thinking they wanted to hide it. I adore them.
I totally agree. Their perspective is refreshing and interesting. Europeans have centuries of history to glean from whereas America as we know it has only 300 years. It boggles my mind.
@@mariajhanley5172Agree totally ❤
I agree it was so funny. How they misread us Americans, also how we used things.
I want to write a letter giving them the info on so many things!! If he has an email address on his YT info page, I will. They have so much knowledge of other countries, I am envious. Thinking about the quality of house construction - they are correct. Our homes are more & more expensive with less and less quality - quick and easy. 2x4's aren't 2" x 4" and so forth....I love watching UK based TV shows and movies. They have houses, "condos/townhomes, cottages and farm houses are over 200-300 years old. Churches over 400+ years old. You can see the original construction with plumbing and elect added; even cobblestone floors. Just love them. Built to last.
There's an entry in findagrave listing Eugene Lloyd and Agnes Sanders with children Robert, Marshall, Jack, and Eugene Jr. Jack is also listed in divorce records so it appears to be the family from this house. Marshall was in the Navy in WWII. The house appears to have been called "Walnut Lawn".
Good bit of detective work! Thanks.
Yes! That’s what the big stone said in the graveyard!
Eugene and Agnes both died in 1974 which is longer back than the narrators estimate. It might be more likely that Eugene Jr. was the occupant. He passed in 1999. Right family just not sure which members lived here. The cemetery is the Garland Family Cemetery at Walnut Lawn in Warsaw, VA. There is also a larger Garland Cemetery in Ablemarle, VA. The burial dates at Walnut Lawn range from 1833 to 1985. Interestingly, the area is fenced but there are some graves outside the fence line. No Sanders are buried there.
@@bonniemacdougall4589
So the Sanders lived with a graveyard in the backyard 😔
I really like the way you guys appreciate the old buildings and are respectful to the families who once lived there. Thank you

It was common for wealthy land owners to bury family on the property 100 years ago. There are many in the South. Brick was often used to build homes or foundations as well as roof tiles like around the Mediterranean. There is an abundance of red clay. The vinegar was most like used for pickling cucumbers or earlier pigs feet and eggs. I have enjoyed following you all over Europe and glad you are learning about old American life. ❤️😊
So sad that these old houses that have a long history are just left to decay and fall to rubble. 😪 sure brings one's mortality into the forefront, doesn't it?
Everytime I watch i feel like I'm there in the past admiring the view of those who are no longer here. Y'all do make the days better and I'm happy to watch this.
It used to be common to bury family members in your yard. Usually the oldest son would inherit the home & land. Nut sometimes, the land would go to the daughter. The home we bought from an elderly woman came with 5 acres that her parents gave her when she was married. Her husband, & father built the home. Then when her parents passed the home and an additional 3+ acres and the family cemetery was left to the only son.
16:57 The room in the basement with the Vinegar bottles that room was a canning room for canning vegetables from the garden in Mason Jars for the winter. Also 18:48 the machine you were asking about is a juicer press.
I'm from Virginia..this is so sad to see they walked away..I will let you know that we put driers on the porch because the heat from the dryer would roast the house. Given the size of the basement doors, I believe the age of the house or at least the foundation/ basement is mid 1800s..
It tickles me so to hear you speculate on what vintage items were and on there uses. I had many of these in my home as a child so I guess I am vintage as well, thankfully! So many of these objects that are foreign for you, imagine how yours from your part of the world that are much older look to us.I love your explorations and that you so beautifully honor the past for us all. Keep up your journey through history, be safe and thank you for the joy you and your friends bring!
This was once a very sweet & charming country house. The family looks like they had a comfortable life & they made a decorative home. They were able to make upgrades from fireplace to coal or wood burning stoves. Those take up so much space I would not like to have them. What I would like to have is all the summer porch furniture! It is similar to what I grew up with. I love watching you guys trying to guess what a strange item was used for. Still enjoy all your videos & narration.
It's very sad personal things like pictures of the family members are left behind. People don't leave sentimental things like that when they move. Something bad must have happened.
I agree. Seems very odd to see the many homes that no one in the family cleaned out at one time or another. All deceased?
Rather sad.
the last family member missed
happens all the time actually. i remember snowmobiling around checking out abandoned houses as a kid, they all still had things left behind in them. people get old or sick and need to be moved out, but have no space to keep anything where they're going.
My family are from virginia and west virginia.. My family had been there since 1831..
When my father died I inherited the old house but I live far away a few States over I couldn't get to it and vandals got in it tore it to pieces sadly the house was torn down last year due to vandalism I wish you guys could have visited before because it was a beautiful house beautiful house at one time one time
Much like this one.😪
You should have sold it 😢 very sad
I like exploring abandoned buildings that are full of historical value, thanks to your upload 👍👍👍
Wow brothers of decay, I remember when y'all first started yalls videos of the things y'all showed that were sad and amazing at the same time of history of what once was in its prime, y'all are Respectable to every location and to all who once dwelled within, Congrats on your channel success. Y'all deserve it, y'all are so Respectable and great.
I wish they could get a castle and fix it up and help people when they would be great at it I just love watching them. 🕊🤍🕊
😊😊
Hello Lesley 🎉 I absolutely loved the Virginia mansion. All the antique furniture, the woodwork and the old door knobs. Always fantastic documentary ❤
The black and white photos are around 1948...These explorations really remind us how fleeting life is, no? I would love the painting of the precidio on the ocean...Breathtaking work of art. Thanks again fellows for a unique and interesting tour. Ooh...by the way...family plots in the family yard were common for upper class American families in the 1800's.
The flag you found with the 3 stars is what Americans traditionally displayed in windows by homes who have family members serving in the armed forces during war time. In this case there were 3 immediate family members who served in harms way. Likely WWII. Heartbreaking that it has been forgotten but for the brief moment you shined a light upon it. Thank you for that.
The flag should be given to a war museum really.
I live near this home. There are many abandoned places in Virginia from old southern families. Thank you for recording our history before these places no longer are standing.
Is someone still alive from this family?
I wonder if a person can purchase and restore it
@@munirAfzali1990 I just check from.google all death.
Clearly staged. The furniture is antique and worth big money. What a waste
❤❤❤
this guy has a vivid imagination, a natural story teller, as he meanders thru these homes he brings the owners to life, it is no wonder they dont haunt him. he is a gem.
So cute how Lesley gets so excited about the vacuum cleaners 😁
I haven't visited your channel for quite some time. I'm glad to be back and enjoying the amazing exploration of this Virginia home.
While not from Virginia. I am a born and raised GRITS . ( Girl Raised In The South ) from the Gulf coast. In the south, porches are an extension of the main house. Built to provide shade and catch the breezes, porches can be, and are multi-purpose. From quiet mornings and evenings, family gatherings, workshop and even sleeping for those stifling hot southern nights before air conditioning was common place. Hence, the bathroom. Also, because of the heat and humidity generated by washing machines and clothes dryers, installing them on the porch was fairly common. The kitchen was more quiet and cooler as the stove would heat up the space as well.
I applaud your willingness to jump in feet first into Amercan homes and culture. I don't think I could do anywhere near as good a job as Leslie and Danny. I am always impressed with your excitement, genuine interest, and sensitivity. I have a lot of catching up to do.
Thank you for the great videos !
It's possible that all those vinegar jars where actually filled with bootleg liquor, from the time when liquor was outlawed. And all those other jars, most likely were when people used to can food from their own garden. It looks as if some people were living in the basement. Possibly from during the great depression families at that time doubled up to have a place to live.The item in the drawer of the sewing table was used to darn socks, fix the holes. The little star flag you found in the trunk in the attic, used to be hung in the window to let people know that, the flag in the window noted they had a family member away at war. I Loved this one great work Guys. Blessings
Grate detail. You actually put me as if though I was there in person. Keep up the good work
Looks like the garden is being looked after !quite tidy for the time it’s been abandoned.Ann uk ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Another fantastic video. I love the ivy covered exterior. Some notes: 1. Lots of houses in the US are brick. In the South, if the house is old enough, enslaved Africans or Black Americans would have made the bricks. 2. A lot of houses in the American South have basements, just usually not in the states with high underground water tables…Usually states with more sand than soil on the ground. 3. That’s an old 1970s dryer on the back porch. 4. Those glass jars in the basement, with red and white stars on the lid, are Folger’s coffee jars. 5. That cabinet in the basement with the tin door had holes poked in it to allow air flow. That’s called a pie safe. 6. Vinegar would usually would have been used to preserve food from the garden. Like making pickles, pickled corn, sauerkraut, etc. Hence, all the bottles. 7. That press in the basement is to make apple cider from raw apples. 8. That is a bomb part sitting next to the hall tree. Looks WWII or Korean War era to me but I’m no expert. 9. That long coat is an old US Army coat. 10. Wow, the furniture in that house is fantastic. So well made. Love the art/prints, too. 11. That vacuum in a “suitcase” was probably for cleaning curtains and upholstery 12. Those silk pillow covers look like soldier souvenirs. My Grandma had some from WWII. 13. The dog statue sitting on top of the books in the upstairs bedroom is “chalk” animal. Very popular in the 1930s and ‘40s. Think they were actually made of plaster of Paris, though. 14. Those “camel back” chests are from the 1800s. 15. This is one of my favorite of your explorations.
@riverbilly64 sorry your wrong, but I have lived in Illinois All My Life & there Are Many Houses That Have Houses With Basements...from Northern, Central & Southern Illinois!!
Thanks, that was interesting to read
50:33 that is a tapestry that families would hang in the front window of their home during WW2 to signify family members who were serving in the war. A blue star for each family member serving and a gold star for each family member who died during the war.
thank you for explaining that
We also hung them in the window during Gulf War, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. My grandson was in Iraq and Afghanistan. Our flag had one star on it.
I don't understand why the bed sheets in the bedroom still white and lawn seemed like has been taken care of. Maybe you mowed the lawn before you filmed it?
Hey Lesley, That was once more a wonderful explore video, which I enjoyed watching. Also the camerawork from Danny is outstanding!
Very fascinating mansion with still a lot of antique furniture and many interesting items were visible.
I loved the deep respect, you were showing throughout your whole explore! And - I always admire how you bring new life into such
a location, which is already abandoned and heavily decaying, alone by your narration. Respect, bro! - Stay safe, peace and kindest regards.
You guys do such an amazing job with your narration(s)!!!! I want to thank you for opening the world to me how people(s) across this world lived there lives!!!! I hope you never stop doing what you do!!!!
Hello guys, glad to see you here in the US😁💓. These houses makes me sad. Why wouldnt someone remove them. Its sad to see beautiful furniture and pucture left to rot..😥💓
Love it when Danny is there too talking with Lesley
i love the enthusiasm you have, its nice and sounds grateful to witness such things. thanks for recording and sharing with us all ^_^
My mom and dad are from Puerto Rico it's a US Territory it's so beautiful you need to visit.lots of history. Amazine people.
Ive been there 3 times and it is beautiful
The two of you go into these old homes and truly appreciate them you love taking in every single detail I love it I really appreciate them to
What surprises me, the electric meter looked very modern. I don't know or remember the early 1980's having digital meters. Probably more than likely 1990's. It is really surprising that the furniture is in such good condition. Not just normal decay, but no signs of rodent or other animal damage. The floors also seem to be in very good condition. The device on the desk, was a rotator for TV antennas. You could use it to get better reception, or channels from other areas/cities, or even countries, depending on the state that you were in. I had an aunt and uncle that lived in the Toledo area of Northwest Ohio. They had one, and I remember at night, picking up some Canadian stations. I would really love to have and restore this house. Still in very good condition
I noticed the good condition of the furniture too. Antiques have dropped in prices since the you know what but fifteen years ago, their collection would have commanded premium prices. Worth a small fortune.
I noticed the power meter also and as you said, mid nineties
My home is only 40 years old, but the inside decor I call "Early Relative", that's pun on "Early American" which was a style of house decor when I was growing up in the 60s. I am the family historian so when one of my relatives would die, I would be given some of their precious possessions. I would love it, if after I die my house would be abandoned for someone like you two to explore. I wonder what you would make of it, even today. Hugs to you and yours, from me and mine. Keep up the great videos! PS. My family had two great vacuums...An Electrolux just like the one in this old house and a FilterQueen. Both amazing pieces of machinery. Oh and we had "ROTOTENNA" that turned our TV antenna for better reception.
Loved the explore! This house was so interesting! The box you found with the cord & N S E & W on it would have been hooked to an antenna on top of the house. It turned the antenna to bring in what few channels one could get in their area back in the days before cable TV or even a Dish. My parents had one, I think they called it a "router box" in like the 1960-70s. Thank you so much Lesley & Danny many blessings ~ 💙
Hello Leslie n Danny . Beautiful exploration like always. Lovely to see you both doing extremely good work. House is filled with lot of memories. Strange to see the grave yards near the house. That's the honey extraction machine in the basement. Thanks for the video.
That was my first guess, but I wasn't sure. Thank you for the confirmation. 🙂
@@ForbiddenChocolate 😊
I find your adventures most interesting. I love it when you don't know and are guessing what an object might have been for.
Thank you for traveling the world to bring these videos to us.
Hello again Lesley and Danny, Yet another beautiful explore from a great duo! Wonderful narration from you Lesley, and excellent videography/cinematography from Danny. Some of the unknown things found are a mystery to me, but a few I know were that it was the tail of a small bomb that you found near the front door. Probably a memento from WWII, and another is that the compass marked electric dial in the bedroom was to change direction of the antenna on the outside of the house for better reception on the television before, or without having cable access. Again, thanks for sharing this with us!! Eric W.
Thanks foe explaining
I was so curious & now I know. Do you know what the canvas lace up gauntlets were used for? I thought maybe for ice hockey since they found hockey skates but couldn't find anything related online. Falcon gauntlets are typically leather. Thank you!
@@mariajhanley5172 I think those were to wear on your lower legs with your military uniform. My grandfather wore those in WWI. Not sure if they were worn in WWII.
@@JeanStAubin-nl9uo That's what I thought they were when Lesley first picked one up. I don't know the name, but they are kinda like 'spats' from back in the day...
@@1lowone Gaiters? Like the things you would wear when you cross-country skied in the '80's
Thank you for your very interesting documentaries about forgotten houses. I am from Iran and we have experienced the longest war of the century in the last three decades. An eight-year war that happened between Iran and its neighboring country, Iraq. At that time, it was very important to follow the news through television and radio. At that time, televisions were old and there was a television antenna on the roof of every house, which was rotated in the house by a rotating antenna device to have the right direction for a better image. I think the device that was in the upstairs bedroom and had the north and south sides on it was the rotating antenna. I love you and thank you guys ❤️🌹
Wealthy famies traveled alot which could indicate all those beautiful landscape art work in home. Such beautiful furniture. I wish to hear of whole story some day.😊
The story is the important thing for me, to complete the video, the house is worthy of the facts, for me why, is nessasary.......
I love this house i was wondering for it to be abandoned so long but the lawn is well kept i love it
Hello Guys, The wooden tool from the drawer of the sewing machine I believe was for darning sox's. the tie up things you thought were for falcons looked like WWI leg guards they put them around their shines and attached with the strap under the shoe and laced up. love your explorations!
They are called Gamaschen, to be put over the underleg leg above the shoe.
I have one of those....they are a tulip bulbs tools to use when planting
Actually the wooden piece is part of a strainer for juicing berries it has an aluminum strainer that is in a conical shape. The wooden plunger is used to pulverize and press the berry juice through the strainer. I use it every year to make dewberry jelly
@@Dawn-fz5cu I remember that from my childhood. All kinds of juices, including tomatoes for tomatoes juice. I'm 68
Those 'braces' are actually called 'Gaiters' and are decorative covers that go over Military boots for ceremonies.. The pants in the armoire are called 'Waders' for wearing in a river/creek for fishing..........they keep you dry.
Great job! Just an FYI, in the attic, the three stared flag in the trunk....it represents that household had three people in the military. Normally at war time.
Here is a search engine explanation...
The blue star represents one family member serving, and a banner can have up to five stars. If the individual is killed or dies, a smaller golden star is placed over it. Gold stars are placed above the blue stars or to the top right of the flag, in the event a flag represents multiple servicemembers.
Hi iam from VA so it haves Alot of old houses from farm ing just love looking back and I was born in 1955 u both take care love u Patricia curry Danville VA 😊
Adoro ver lugares abandonados!!!! Parabéns, muito bom teus vídeos 👏👏👏
Thank you lesley & Danny absolutely a beautiful family home you have shown us ❤️
There are so many amazing antiques in these abandoned houses. Somebody must still own this house and land. This particular house has a well-worn path around it. Why do they not sell the furniture? How is it that it does not get vandalized or stolen? Does anybody know?
I have the same question. Even those paintings and pictures are lovely.
And would this nit be trespassing?
This was a lovely tribute to this home and the people that resided there. I enjoy the quiet and gentle way you two film and to not disturb peoples past !
How fascinating! And so sad. Where did the family go? Such lovely antiques. This is America-why hasn’t the house been looted? 😊
Am urmarit cu placere de aici din Romania de foarte departe acest minunat videoclip cu aceasta casa minunata din trecut! Foarte nostalcic si trist despre modul nostru de a trai pe acest pamant,nu luam nimic cu noi si plecam fara nimic! Doar cu sufletul! Bun sau rau❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😮😮😮😊😊😊😊❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Don’t know why this interested me so much. Eugene L Sanders was born about 1920. His mother was Agnes, one of his brothers was Jack who you mentioned in the video. He had a brother Robert and Lyell, too. His father was E Lloyd Sanders. I have found more information but don’t want to share here. Cool history to this home.
Thanks for the info!
Awesome forest view n documentary, I must, say, please do make many more such amazing videos
Hey guys you are mixing up your washing machine and drying machine.Washer in the kitchen,dryer on the porch.😂
Hey, what did you find out about this family, I love this Story. Thanks, Inga
y77😮oi😅yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy😢
Wow how cool you guys were in my neighboring state! This explore was very interesting to me. It definitely appears someone is keeping up with this property by the looks of the grass and bushes. Lesley and Danny, I just adore you guys!!! Thank you for coming to the US! ♥️🥰🇺🇸
I like your enthusiasm. Sometimes it's all we need to have a better day.
Thank you boys
I love Sanders family
In heaven where I can see Sanders family members.
Huh?
Wonderful exploration! thank you as always for you and Danny being the awesome explorers! I so enjoy seeing what new discoveries you have each week! Looking forward to many more!
Beautiful home, thank u both for the adventure. Love u both from Texas
Thanks for a great tour. It is sad that everything is left to decay. I found it interesting that they just stuck heaters in front of the old fireplaces instead of doing it properly. You would think that a rich family would have made it better.
I love the respectful mind set you both have. I’m in the USA and lived in the North American. I was documenting the homes of the oldest road in the USA called Old Mine Road. There were hundreds of homes that are decaying and I have pics of many houses. Unfortunately, every house was claimed by eminent domain. The story of it comes from a project called The Tocks Island Dam. Sadly I’m in the southern of USA and it is very difficult to find. But again, thank you for being respectful.
Lovely video Lesley and Danny! The leather lace up items you thought might be worn on forearms were part of 1940s naval uniform and worn around the leg calf above the boot..🙂♥️🇺🇲🇺🇸love u!
Gaiters.
I will never understand why someone, anyone never came to take some of those antiques out of there. I see a ladder back chair, a federal chair and a number of things still worth saving.
Simplesmente porque as pessoas tem educação!
I feel very sad to see the house used to be beautiful has been abandoned so long and now falling apart, it reminds life is so short we can't bring anything with us when time's up
حتى انا قلت هدا الحياة قصيرة ولا يدوم الا وجه ألله وحده لاشريك له له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيء قدير يحي ويميت وهو على كل شيء قدير المهم هو ان تطيع ربك وتستحي منه وتتقيه وتبتعد عن المحرمات وتؤمن بان لاإله إلا الله وان محمد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ادا كنت غير مسلم فالمصير هو جهنم وبئس المصير وادا كنت مسلم فمصيرك الجنة اللهم ارزقنا حسن الخاتمة وجنات الفردوس
Glad to see you in the USA. I really enjoy your videos and the genuine care you have for the families and appreciation of the home’s details and belongings. You are the best explorer. ❤ from Pennsylvania
Lesley seu respeito pelos objetos e antigos moradores é admirável. 😊
I love all the things you show in the basement and the house. I sometimes notice things i would like you to notice. In this case it's the rag rug in the basement. Very typical of the time and in farmhouses.
Eugene died in 1974 and I found the property......Jack was a brother, Marshall Sanders was his father, they originated from Poland
That was the year i was born. Perhaps ah neve never mind
Wow! A very well-built house for the basement to be DRY!!! Thanks for another great vlog - Bros Of Decay🎉
The backyard burial ground is very typical of the earlier Plantation and Farming communities back in the 1700/1800's and early 20th centuries in rural areas. The Guardland's buried out back likely owned this home and an earlier home on this property. You'd have to check all the dates to judge the timeline. I'm wondering ifthe Sanders family are related to the Guardlands as the antique furniture is 19th century and appears original to the home.
I love watching again. I wanted to say the owners used a part of the basement for canning foods from garden and storing it was cool there. Vinegar is a preservative for vegetables example peppers, pickles onions etc.
My oh my! Would I have a field day refurbishing some of those beautiful furniture pieces ❤
This guy is one of the best storytellers on the internet
Great you and Danny are back in UNited States ❤️ Love you videos FL.
Thank for show around and little surprise by family cemetery there make me goosebumps
Thank you for coming to USA i enjoy your videos
Hello my dears! I believe the device on the dresser with North, South, East, West was a control for TV antenna on the roof. I always love your explores. Hugs to you both. ❤❤
That was a standard Army issued overcoat. I had one... that is not a display case for your guns, it is a lockable gun safe and keeps your kids out of there. Everybody I know in Texas has one. The long wooden cylinder object in the sewing machine drawer is all-purpose sewing item.
Some of the old finds. It such a shame. As always another great video. You guys are the best. Thank you. 😁
What a beautiful house 🏡❤️
Love you guys
