Ok, I found some ancestry stuff on Darling and Alford Brown and it says Darling is male, not female. It also shows they both died in the Civil War. There is nothing else about them except for their parents and siblings names. I don't know if the male thing is right but that's what it says. It would make sense that if they both died in the war.
That’s strange for a man to be name Darling. I’m wondering if maybe it was an affectionate name they called him and they didn’t want to post his real name because that’s all they called him?
My parents were going to name me Effie, my grandmothers name was Effie. Thank you for your videos and all the research you find on the different people, for me it helps to kind of know them. ❤
I took care of a lady named Effie in a home for handicapped individuals and she was quite old in 1979- 1980 and she was wheelchair bound but she was feisty too. She didn’t like one patient because he always irritated her or should I say picked on her. He always carried a radio so she’d scream out, you old Radiohead, you. We would laugh when she said it because it was funny the way she said it but we’d redirect the guy away from her so he wouldn’t irritate her. She was usually put in her wheelchair in the dining room up against a wall with a few other patients and they had trays to put their food on
A lot of my daddy’s side of the family is buried in Isabella, Oklahoma and the cemetery is surrounded by pastureland and the way I can find it is there are two huge round tanks on the property on the corner I need to turn to get to the cemetery. My nephews other Grandparents and a couple of their children are buried there too. His Grandma died just a few months ago. Growing up she was like a second momma to my siblings and I. She watched out for us if she saw we were on the street she lived on. They lived a couple of blocks away from us when we lived in town for a year and a half. We lived on my parents farm most of the time growing up
Good video! How great to have a little cemetery just for the family, on a family-owned farm in this day and age. I'll bet the land owners know what happened to that brother and sister who died on the same day. Thank you two for bringing us these very interesting videos. 🌹
My daddy’s side of the family is similar although there are some people who aren’t relatives buried there because they lived near the cemetery. There is one while row that is family except for one person and then other family is spread out in the cemetery
PLEASE READ THE BOTTOM OF A HEADSTONE - IF IT HAS WORDS ON IT. We would like to know what they put on their headstones - besides just the name and dates.
It appears the Company letter designated which county the individual was from. Company F was from Benton County. There is also a J.W. Brown who served as a Corporal in Company F with Darling, possibly his brother John Wesley Brown? Also J. M. Brown (Sgt), possibly another brother, Jackson M.
The little girl’s headstone is clearly broken in half at the word “died”. That, should restoration happen, would make the process difficult, if not impossible. ☹️
Darling Brown was a private with the Confederate Army, 34th Regiment, Arkansas Infantry, Company F. Perhaps someone who is a Civil War buff might know what battle that unit was in on March 14, 1865??
Thanks you two. That is so nice that the cemetery is family owned. Those deceased won't be forgotten.
Thank you

Found a little more information on Alford Brown; he was married to Louisa Jane Centers. I’ve not found anything on her yet.

Yes . Thanks for watching
The Civil War wasn't quite over yet in March of 1865. I haven't looked thru other comments yet but I wondered about it being something about the war?
Yes a viewer said Darling was a male and their brothers , killed in the war . So sad
Would the brother and sister have died in the war? Around the time of the Battle of Bentonville by chance?
A viewer said they are brothers and did die in war
Darling was a male
Darling Brown was a private with the Confederate Army, 34th Regiment, Arkansas Infantry, Company F. Perhaps someone who is a Civil War buff might know what battle that unit was in on March 14, 1865??
His name was Alford Alexander Brown Junior
Thank you
P.s thank you guys very interesting.
