This was very beautiful. Such a nice place for the beloved to rest...thank you for sharing . We also are CHOCTAW, our people are from Poteau and Gilmore Oklahoma.
Well, Halito! Oh yes, I know exactly where both of those towns are. Fortunately, I used to live in Poteau for 3 years, and I liked it there. I have done a video on my channel over the Hall cemetery just about 10 min east of Poteau speaking on Choctaw Chief Moshulutubbee. Check it out! 👍
Yes I have relatives at Hall Cemetery
@@mercedithcompala8148 Oh wow! I may have come across them when I was there.
Sad how many unmarked possible children's graves.
Robert Wright recommended your channel, and I am really enjoying it.
Awesome! Funny thing, I've never met Robert, but it sure does feel like I've known him forever, lol! I am so glad you are enjoying some our history on the west side of the Mississippi River. I know in this video, I mention about Robert and his UA-cam Channel. Thank you for watching and I will post more videos soon. Keep a look out!
@@hizprezhistorydestination2024 My Great Grandparents and my Grandfather and his brothers came from Oklahoma to Canada in the late 1800's. They lived in Norman Oklahoma. I have relatives I've never met from all over Oklahoma. I'm still catching up on your videos, and really do enjoy learning the history and seeing the land.
Joe, Robert had your video posted on his site. I really enjoyed watching your video and hearing the stories of history that you told. I love learning about the history of America's Native Americans. Someday, if possible, it would be good to get something to put on your microphone to cut out the sound of the wind.
I appreciate Robert on what he does, I really respect his work of preserving history in his state of Georgia. Yes, I do agree on the mic. maybe I need to upgrade soon. Or go to a site when there isn't as windy, lol! Thank you again for watching.
You need to carry a flashlight. Like Robert does. 👍
Sounds like an idea. Thanks!
@@hizprezhistorydestination2024 He also carries a brush so that he can brush dirt, leaves, etc., off of gravestones if needed. I am not sure exactly what kind of brush. It probably has fairly soft bristles so as not to damage the headstones.
@@sharontheobald9478 Well I believe that is Cecil job, he is the professional. As Robert would say about Cecil. Maybe I need a Cecil to brush off the headstone, lol! Thanks!
My gggrandpa. Choctaw/Chickasaw name is Eastman Amos.
