She died on her wedding day when she fell down the steps of the church right after she was married. Born and raised in Lancaster and that's what my parents told.
I know that cemetary well. Family plot on my fathers side is located there. Back in the summer of 1967 I was taking a summer school class at McCaskey High School down New Holland Pike (Rte 23) there. My bus from East Petersburg would stop on Lemon Street early in the morning. It is a large cemetary. Rather than walk several blocks all the way around the perimeter - which was fenced with a very difficult to climb, high, iron spike fence - we would climb over the iron spike fence with great difficulty to take a big short cut through the cemetary .
Her name was kept as Bitner on the tombstone because her family didn't approve of her husband and it was a snub. He should have done some simple research. Not hard to find
If she would have placed her hand on your shoulder this video would have gone viral! I don't know if it would have been her hand on your shoulder or you breaking all human sprinting records. I have been to this cemetery and all the others in Lancaster. Gen. Reynolds, the highest ranking officer killed at Gettysburg is also buried in his hometown of Lancaster. His marker is a large stone carved tree stump. So many haunted stories. But the Lightning speed of the WW would have been the story of stories. Thank you kindly Cliff! DaveyJO
@@thewanderingwoodsman7227 gone certifiable, eh? As long as it wasn't dark outside I'd be able to handle it. No pun intended . But this tale reminds me of Black Aggie in Baltimore, later moved to DC .
we have a similar statue in one of our cemeteries who is also purported to turn its head, weep, etc. Pretty much folk lore and not to be taken too literally. Darn noisy traffic kinda ruin ambiance.
I really appreciate your channel and videos but I can’t believe that people will harm or destroy graves. I truly appreciate your adventures and history.
Good video! Lived in Lancaster. Co. a better part of my life, never heard the story. WOW , So now I think I will come back up to visit there , and alot more places you have been. Just want to SEE ALL AGAIN !!! Thank You!

Weeping Angels
I drive past this cemetery everyday. I have seen her head turn, maybe just be my brain but who knows.
I have never heard of the statue wandering around... i have heard her spirit comes out of the stutue though.
Wow this status is little bit creepy...I guess?

Love the Lancaster area . such a interesting video.
I love this story haunted Pennsylvania is really great and you do a wonderful job telling these storys
Would be nice if someone had a camera set up on their house that could catch it moving!!! That would be so cool if it was
Beautiful statue and gravestone. Sad story.
it's odd that the face, and I mean just the face, is dark and the rest of the statue is snow white

She seems to be depicted with a "baby bump" as a woman would/could have after the birth of a baby. Cliff, gotta get a bigger umbrella. Stay dry.
Beautiful tombstone and statue! Sorry you got wet but it definitely added the appropriate ambiance to the legend! Thanks for sharing it!!
Have you ever done a video of the Evans City Cemetery where they shot the original NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD? If not, you should probably do one.
Haven't been there yet.
I think they were called the weeping angels and appeared in several Dr Who episodes, all very creepy.
I’m sorry...what do you mean by “episodes”
we have a similar statue in one of our cemeteries who is also purported to turn its head, weep, etc. Pretty much folk lore and not to be taken too literally. Darn noisy traffic kinda ruin ambiance.
I appreciated the Doctor Who reference!
IK you were a Whovian!!! My instinct is right! The Weeping Angels is what they were called my hubby said.
I don’t do Facebook but Since i have found your channel i really enjoy the haunted videos. Thank you so much for sharing.

I love your exploration of all the old grave yards. Very interesting and informative.
New fan from Pittsburgh pa
Cliff, Augusta b
Cliff, Augusta Binter Tevis burial in the newspaper has that she was married
and her that she was going to be Monday at 2pm
The Bitner name is on the grave marker. It's hard to see on the video, but it says Augusta Harriet, daughter of (can't see the name) Bitner.
Go to the haunted forest not haunted but it is Gus wow if it was it would be the ll most
Someone has money...
They were a very prominent wealthy family in the time.
