Love these stories and the sounds of the fiddle n banjos are beautiful could I have the names of these tunes❤️
😘😘😘😀
Greetings from Indian Creek
At about 8:15 into the video is an old timey gospel song. I've tried to find it, but failing miserably. What is the name of that song? I'd love to learn the lyrics!
We met his gr-grandson on the Abrams Falls trail in Cades Cove. We were out of water, our tongues dragging, he just stopped and insisted he fill up our water bottles and had a chat. So friendly and nice. He looked a lot like Alvin: strawberry blond, tan, handsome and fit. It was the highlight of our day!
Awesome 👏
That's so cool!
Wow awesome
I bet it was! Ohhh to be back wandering among those mountains again.
What an honor that was to meet Sgt. Alvin York's gr-grandson ! And that is some beautiful country in that area. Used to live just over the mountain from Cades Cove, Cherokee, N.C. Miss those mountains. 😊
What a beautiful tribute you paid to this God fearing man, who listened to his mama and his Lord. Thank you...
Thank you Ruby ❤️
Proud to say that Sgt. Alvin York is my 14th cousin. A true hero in every sense of the word, G-d bless him!❤
❤️
God certainly did watch over Mr. York. What an excellent story. I’m glad his Momma never gave up on him.
Thank you my friend, have a blessed day
I have watched that movie, "Sergeant York" several times, and it serves me well to hear that the lightening bolt that guided Alvin to God was actually his mother. Us mountain boys love and loved our mothers with a love as big as the mountains and are guided throughout our lives by our mother's words. Our fathers also, for they worked their lives away for our upbringing. Thanks for the great story of a great hero amongst many who kept us all safe in this great country of ours.
Thank you Charlie, God bless
I love your stories. My Uncle Jack who came from Salem, Illinois and was living the oilfield life in Wyoming. He came down in the early 1980’s to look at the grave of a modern day disciple of the Lord. I have a picture of my uncle Jack and it moved him deeply. He said he would soon meet brother Alvin in the Lords Kingdom. Fifteen years later he met “Brother Alvin”.
I love your stories. I let my aging father listen to your stories. He loves your stories. “He says the Phillips boy is a fine story teller”.
Fine a compliment you can get from Dad.
That is a mighty fine compliment, makes me proud to he him say that. Tell him the Phillips boy said hello 👋
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller I’ll do that for sure. I’m going to see him this afternoon. Going to let him listen.
I grew up in Jasmestown Tennessee. The highschool graduated from was started and named after,Sargeant York. We attended his funeral. His home and Grist Mill is a Tennessee State Park. His son Andrew was a Parkranger there and when you toured the house, Andrew would give the historyof his family. Sargeant Yourk, Mrs Gracie and son Tommy are inturned in the Wolf River Cemetery.
love this, thanks for sharing
That's one I'd love to visit!
Did you know my cousin
Jerry Campbell? Jerry was killed in Vietnam, he knew Alvin. You see we were Gracie’s 3rd cousin. Visiting the Campbell’s, apparently just before Alvin past. I sadly opted out Visiting Sgt. York to go horseback riding with Jerry. My mom and sister met with him but at that time he was blind due to diabetes. How many times I regretted not to have meet this man. I’m old now, but know I will meet him in Paradise someday!
My husband and I went to visit his home and resting place a few years ago. What an incredible man and life he lived!
Yes he was
What a man. What a good, solid, salt-of-the-earth man.
My late husband was a man much like Alvin York. He could be counted on by family, friends and strangers. That was 45 years ago and I miss him still.
I've read about Alvin York and seen movies but this recording seemed to bring him alive, to show his humanity - and his humility.
Thank you for another moving tribute to our Appalachian forebears, JD.
Thank you for that- I tried to tell his story in a way it had never been told before
Sorry for your loss 🙏
What a true American absolutely brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for sharing that❤
Thank you ❤️ RIP Sgt. York
What a great way to start my Saturday. I first heard of Sgt, York when I was a boy. What a testimony of faith in the Lord. Inspiring. Thank you sir for your excellent production.
I did my best to pay respect to this true hero
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller And you sure did.Proud of your story,JD! We must never forget!
Sargent York was a great solider. He went war despite being a religious man who didn't want kill anyone. Un like Trump and most members of Senate and house of representives. The poor always fight the rich has privilege.
I have been to Alvin Yorks house that the state of Tennessee gifted Alvin i loved it i also met some of his children it was wonderful
His house is at the end of this video
A true legend and a hero of mine. As an easy Tennessee native his story always touches my soul.
amen brother
I live just outside Jamestown. Alvin was a fine soldier and better man! Proud to live in the same area
Well said
What Good Great God’s Gift to America and mankind. I loved the movie that was made about him👍. Gary Cooper was awesome in it. Thanks for sharing Alvin’s words. I’m sure he’s in Paradise with Jesus and the Saints. Thanks JD.
Amen Denise, You know, they are even including part of the Gary Cooper movie in my radio broadcast this week. What an honor!
JD, you lifted his name high with pride and respect we all felt in the telling of the story. God love you Dear, he blessed you with a fine gift indeed. ✝
Thank you so much, I have a big announcement about this story coming up soon!
That was better than ANY documentary I have ever seen about SGT York. Loved it!
Thank you for that, I studied his diary for weeks and visited his grave, and then sat down to tell the story in his own words. RIP to a true hero.
My late father joined the Army in late 1940 Fort Knox 27 Field Artillery and when tank battalions were formed my dad was transferred to HQ Co. 750 Tank Battalion dad told me about training and how his unit was around Sgt. York farm and he got to meet Sgt. York dad did not talk about his time in the Army much his unit did a lot of fighting but I got the feeling meeting Sgt. York was a good memory or dad would not have said anything. My dad was a hill kid growing up in Bull Creek Ky around the Manchester, London area of Southeastern Ky.
God Bless the Veterans like Sgt. York and my late father John C. ( Jack ) Warren.
Thanks for sharing his story my friend, I enjoyed reading it
Alvin York is an East Tennessee legend. He was a man to walk the mountains with as the old timers would say in this area.
Yes sir
Wow, seriously a hero on one of the grandest scales ⚖️ 👏
A true American Hero
Hello JD. I shouldn't be surprised, but you knocked another one out of the park. What a hero Alvin York was. They don't make many like that anymore and to have you tell the story made it even more enjoyable. Thanks for sharing this story.
Thank you Troy, I did my best to transport folks back in time and understand what it was like for Sgt. York from his perspective
I was so happy to hear the early life story of SGT York. Great history right there... Loved the movie!
Thank you Pinky!
💕 I have never heard this story... what a beautiful soul. Thank you so very much, for sharing! 💕
Thank you Jodi!
I absolutely love, your story telling, there's no fu-fu about it.
You just state the fact, I can see what you're saying ❤ and that's better than a book. And I'm a voracious reader❤
You have a God given gift ❣️ Thank you for sharing yourself ❤
Thank you so much!
He is a legend and a man I have always liked. At 49 I still love his story and courage he had. Awesome video
Thank you Chris
Not the first time I heard Sergeant York's story, but definitely the best. Good work, and thank you.
Thank you, I really appreciate that
Me too 😮 now I want to see the movie 🍿🎥
I recently watched the Alvin York movie with Gary Cooper
Your reading was very well done
Thank you all veterans
thank you my friend, God Bless
I've read a couple different accounts of Alvin York's exploits in the war but this is the first time I've heard about his entire life. Thank you very much and God bless.
Thank you, I tried to bring a whole new perspective to his story
I am so enthralled with all of your videos. I can listen to your voice all day. It sounds like family.
thank you ma'am
Wonderful story thank you ❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
A true hero during the war and even more so after it
Wow, what a great story!
Thank
You !
What a great story. War is a terrible thing. Sgt York was a true American legend!
Thank Edward- I agree on all counts
I was raised in eastern Kentucky, but even there as a kid in the 70s and 80s, we still knew about Alvin York. I saw the Gary Cooper movie about him when I was 13 and it’s been my favorite movie ever since. All of America’s schoolchildren should learn about this great hero regardless of it being more than a century ago now. I’m my mind, he’s just as important as Napoleon and George Washington. Thank you for a wonderful narration!
Thank you Kelly
There's a lot of us York's in eastern KY especially the Lawrence county big sandy area. My name is les York named after my great grandfather who was a member of the york brothers Band which got famous for rockabilly and played at the ole Opry before Elvis.
@@912klb that’s so interesting! Thanks for telling us 😊
Alvin was my Grandma’s cousin. My mom was at his funeral and said it was really a sight to behold. So many people.
What a story they keep getting better and better. Thanks
This is a fantastic story on this American hero. You have to think that his father gave him the training when he was a young boy shooting turkeys and squirrels to make him a marksman. JD, you gave awesome special effects to the pictures. Thank you.
Thanks Edward! I spend 40 hours working on this story, thanks for noticing the special effects
Shooting turkeys and squirrels was not for sport. It was for survival - food to feed an ever growing family.
WOW! What a gripping story, thank you so very much!
Thank you 😊
You are a great story teller!
Thank you Ma'am
Back in 2005 my mom and I went and toured the home that was given to Sgt. York, and his son is the person who gave us a tour, he had to be a 70s at that time. I still have a picture of him and my mom in their living room..
Great memories.
❤️
These stories are so comforting
Thanks so much, I do my best to bring them to life
@@TheAppalachianStorytelleryou truly do a great job
Thank you!@@shannsimms9072
Sir, you are the finest storyteller alive today. You probably have heard this, and most likely have a hard time believing it, but you bring these stories to life with your ability to read them in a good ol' mountain boy accent and inflection at just the correct moment that makes you sound like the writer lounging with his children and grandchildren in a sitting room just telling his own story.
Wow, what a humbling compliment, thank you so much. I appreciate your kind words and encouragement, hope you are enjoying the stories
One of my favorite heroes when I was little in the 1950's I grew up watching this old movie/Sqt. York and it is still one of my favorite. Love the scene where he got saved and walked in the little white church where Walter Brennan played the pastor.
The church in this video is the real church where he got saved
Another great episode of storytelling of a true American hero.
Thank you Charlotte!
Such an amazing man. You told his story as it should be told. It us sad that we are losing our History. Thank you for keeping some of it alive.❤
Thank you Sadie!
Bravo my friend 👍🇨🇦
He was a great man!
My Wife's Grandmother (Daisy Slaughter) was Mother York's closest neighbor back then and left ton's of newspaper articles and several rare pictures of Alvin and his Brother George and pictures of the Family on a Fishing/Camping trip to a small lake on the other side of "Jimtown" with Model "T" Fords that Alvin bought when they came out after he got back from the War. I Have a really nice picture of Alvin and his younger Brother holding their guns wearing their hunting clothes. Alvin and Miss Gracie were Fine Christian Folks.
beautiful
Mornin' JD, another fine Saturday morning started off by listening to your latest tale. It's become one of my favorite times of the week and I enjoy erry minute friend! See ya on the next one and you take care.
Thank you Scott, Preciate your kind words and support!
What a story!
thank you!
I always heard that you learn something new every day. I knew he was a hero but didn't know the story of how. Now I know how the VA that is located in my home town got it's name. Thank you for this story.
He was a true hero
That's a true hero. Audi Murphy is another.. love your channel.
Thank you!
Have been a fan of sgt. York since I was 14 and seen the movie with Garry cooper in 1984 . It was the first time I realized what the congressional Medal of Honor was. Thank you for another great informative glimpse of a American hero !
Thank you 🙏
A humble American man with rural upbringing, distinguishes himself in the face of almost certain death half a world away from home. Is honored for his accomplishments in war and goes on to humbly serve his community as a leader and advocate for educational opportunities for the children of communities. And love the Lord and serve Him by serving others. A life well lived. God Bless Alvin York, his descendants and others like him. R.I.P. Good an Faithful servant. May we today be deserving of many more such men to keep and guide us in this fallen and turbulent world.
well said my friend
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller I appreciate your channel and your exceptional storytelling ability, your accent adds an element of homespun eloquence. Thank you for sharing these stories.
thank you Nina ❤ @@ninabooker2904
English is not my first language but I ❤to listen to your storytelling voice…..Thank you for sharing all the beautiful old stories and pictures sir.
Wow, thank you 😊
Awsome story J.D. still rooting for you and that diamond play button.
Man- that would be a dream come true!
Absolutely love it👍❤️
Thank you 🙏
Wow what an amazing man, Patriot, and philanthropist! I’ve never heard his whole story. During my time as a kid we never really learned much about the Great War but more about WW2. Now that I’m a grown man and amateur historian I’ve delved much deeper into WW1, and let me tell you it’s fascinating, and absolutely terrifying. The sheer amount of folks who died and then barely two decades later it produced a psychopath who was convinced Gods chosen people were the cause of all of the Vyemar Republics(Germany’s) problems. In turn cause our country to hand over its destiny to the military industrial complex, and eventually take us off the gold standard. Don’t get me wrong I’m pro strong military and always support our boys but now we are in a sad state of affairs with our military especially how they recruit for shooters/boots on the ground. God bless Alvin York and all the other brave who gave for God and Country!! Thank You!!!
Me. York was a patriot, most only watch a Hollywood movie about him… and miss his whole story
Alvin York was truely a mazing man. I have seen the movie Gary Cooper played Alvin York well over 50 to 70 times. I could wafch that many more times to. Thank you for sharing this story with us over such a amazing man. God bless you and your family...🙏❤🙏❤🙏
Thank you Sir
I could not turn this video off God Bless Alvin York.
A true American Hero
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller Absolutely
i saw the movie when i was young, i am almost 66 years old. with the event of the computer i read Avin Yorks diary. it is fascinating. Alvin met Gracie Williams and she was already a Christian, and she is the one who lead Alvin to the Lord. i have been a hunter and rifleman and handloader all my life. i have several flintlocks that i shoot competition and hunt with. no doubt Alvin was a great shot, but a turkey's head at 100yds? you can't even see a turkey head at 100yds! LOL! i love your story's JD,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
It’s great that you mentioned his diary- I wrote this story in my own words after studying his diary- the part about the turkeys head at a hundred yards is Alvin’s words
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller oh well, the truth is the truth, a turkeys head is 2in wide at the most. i am not doubting you JD, it is the shooter i have a problem with. i read the diary about 10 years ago so i have forgotten that, a moving 2in target at 100yds with open sights am a round ball is beyond my belief. and believe it or not York was a liberal, so, just because he said it don't make it so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I'm sure that there are those that have no problem seeing a turkey's head at a hundred yards away, because I know for a fact that when I was a kid I used to be able to put a thread through the eye of a needle with just the light reflecting out of a television
I have shot squirrels at 100 + yards. I have no doubt that York could and have shot turkey heads at that distance and more. When you grow up with a rifle or pistol in your hands, you get real good or go hungry.
exactly. @@Mark-sj7lv
Yes sir you know so much happened back in those days that we will never know thank you so much God bless you 🙏❤️
you got that right
Donnie loved this Alvin York video fantastic 😍 😊 great job 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👍👍👍 👏👏👏👏👏
I tell Donnie you said so 😂
Wonderful Story and Great Job !!
Thank you so much! Have a blessed day!
Awesome! Love 💕 these Appalachian Stories.
Thank you so much Kathleen!
What a great man he was. Thankyou again for another amazing historical recollection.
Thank you 🙏
Gave me chills, wonderful story
Thank you my friend, and RIP Sgt. York
My great uncle fought in the first world war. He fought at Ypres and a couple other places. He always told me mom (when she was little/young woman) that when the Americans arrived to help out, that as soon as the bombs etc started dropping, they all dropped their rifles and fled, much to the chagrin of the officers. My great uncle was eventually wounded (in the leg) and got sent home. He was so glad to be out of there. It was such a horrific experience.
Thanks for sharing that my friend
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller No problem.
Before anyone says anything, I know not all american conscripts were like that. I think maybe for those particular guys, the sheer shock startled them and they fled. Being told what something is going to be like and experiencing it first hand is something entirely different.
Incredible video about Sgt. York’s life, service and legacy! The Wolf River and Valley of the Three Forks, York’s home, are richly steeped in Appalachian history. We have land on the Wolf River, and I spend many days there thinking about what life must’ve been like, when times were simpler and living off the land was critical.
Thanks for such a beautiful narrative and display of a true American Hero and Legend!
Thank you so much for listening to this powerful story about one of Americas Greatest Men
Yessir!! Another mighty good'n JD!! God bless and have a good'n brother
Thanks Jared!
I love hearing this story and knowing that it's a true story is even better. You did an amazing job on this and I thank you for posting this one
Glad you enjoyed it Debbie, this video took lots of work and I filmed a lot of it in Alvins hometown, at his church, and his grave. A true American Hero
Wow, I’ve heard and watched Alvin York’s story many times, but never with this much respect and impact. So well done once again, JD.
It seems that those who rarely see the actual fighting, love war.
Those they deem expendable are always the ones fighting in it.
Mostly poor, simple men who have little but faith and Providence to guide them in the wars of the affluent. Sacrificial lambs in the slaughter, even today as we listen to your moving tribute to Sgt Alvin York these wars continue.
Thanks for shedding the light on this true American Hero, simply trying to get back to the Hills and mountains he loved.
“Blessed are the peacemakers”, indeed.
Thank you, I can tell you received the. True message of this video. Indeed, I studied Alvin’s personal diary and made a pilgrimage to his grave and only then did I attempt to share his story from his perspective. I did my best to salute a true hero and share his story to the next generation
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller Very well said, JD.
Hi JD. I live in Scott County TN about an hour from Jamestown. I always love hearing this story. Thanks so much for this. Sergeant York is one of my heroes. Along with my father and grandfather's he was one of the reasons I joined the infantry in the US Army. I tried my best not to disappoint any of them. I hope I succeeded. Thanks again.
Thank you for your service my friend, America needs more men like you
Sgt. Alvin York, man of peace but formidable in war. I first became aware of his name in the movie "Sergeant York" with Gary Cooper portraying him. They never taught us of this history. Thank you Appalachian Storyteller. This gets more into him being a man of faith, yearned for peace, but put in the violence, gore , mud and blood, of war. Yet, this man of faith and honor, rose up did what had to to be done. I have so much respect for Sgt. Alvin York. I learned much more in this video about his story. You got me Appalachian Storyteller, yours is the only channel I've joined to support, at a low level, but my income is very low too! 😂 Brother, you have a talent in this field that I admire. Blessings to you from a Métis (Native & White..Halfblood. ) brother. Keep it going.
Thanks so much for your support, it really helps, so thank you! I wrote this story after reading Mr Yorks diary he kept during the war
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller You're welcome my friend. Enjoyed the story very much.
My dad ,and his brothers ,and sisters . All attended school , in a one room school house in wears Valley Tennessee , back in the 1930s and 40s .
they lived a good life!
They did until the government , forced my dad’s grand mother, to sale 1500+ acres of land that she had inherited . The government forced her to sale at just ( 8 cents per acre . ) and yes I said. 8 cents per acre . The government took the land at gun point . Claiming that it was going to be for the Smoke mountains national park . Most of their land onced obtained by the government , was de regulated. And sold off to private investors. My dad told me that there were massive chestnut trees in the mountains some over 10 feet wide , that were covering the mountains leading up towards the highlands pastures. My dad said that land prices back then were around $ 80.00 per acre for bottom land and nearly $ 140 . 00 for the tree covered mountain side . There were tin , gold , silver ,coal ,ETC … around the area maybe even on their land . So when my dad’s grandma died , us army soldiers came to my dad’s house , and forced them to leave at gun point . That’s how the people , were treated… they were forced to sale their land back then or else. Be arrested possible killed if they didn’t agree …
Thank you for a wonderful story! The influence of one believing mother is beyond all the world's riches!
Thank you 😊
Isn’t amazing how a call to duty.. brings up a boy to man comes after the years we spent.. bless our time spent better or worst
Agreed
What a great story! The best detailed account of his life I've heard had me on the edge of my seat. Thanks JD😎👍
Thank you Kathy- I tried to approach this thru Sgt. Yorks eyes, and tell it in a way that has never been told
❤️😎⚖️ love this guy
❤️
So many poor Americans subjected to wars and death on behalf of the rich. As a veteran, it is a complete waste of lives. God bless this man and he is a hero.
Well said
All wars are bankers wars.
Excellent Story
Thank you so much, my friend. Have a blessed day.
Heard of him through the movie with Gary Cooper. Sergeant York. Mr. Storyteller, this dedication and narrative was superbly done and well read. on point. Loved it.
Thank you, I did my best to honor his legacy
I wasn't born an Appalachian. I grew up a flat-lander on the plains of northern Ohio. When I was 25 I moved to Upper Twin Creek, which flows south into the Ohio river. I was an outsider then, obvious to everyone I met. That was 20+ years ago. These days it might not be as obvious as it was back then, but I'll always be a newcomer. Even after I die here.
❤️
Thanks fella it's a great story GOD BLESS
Thank you Kevin!
Im glad he didn't forget his community
Yeah, he was an honorable man for sure. Look for the story to be featured on the podcast our American stories in the next couple of days.
I grew up watching the film Sergeant York. At the U.S. Army Infantry School, Ft. Benning GA, the first hero our drill instructors taught us about was Alvin C. York.
Proud to have served as a grunt in the same army.
Thank you for your service
Knew his story but have never heard it like this, great stuff!
Thanks for that, my purpose was to tell his story like it’s never been told before- thru his own eyes
This was by far the best 1
thanks so much for that, have a blessed day
One of the best stories that you have given to us!!
God Bless you!!
Thank you so much!
Exellent tribute to a true American hero. My mom was from Morristown Tennessee. The movie Sargent York moved me to seek an intimate relationship with Jesus. Love that movie.
I dont think many could do such an outstanding job retelling the story of Sargent Alvin York. He was one of a kind, an example to be followed and revered.
Thank you
An American Hero to be remembered
This is truly one of the most inspirational stories that I’ve ever heard. With no formal training, he used the common sense of his father and the biblical teachings of his mother to guide him through one of the deadliest wars of our lifetime. He survived and, not for honor or glory to himself, but to build schools and churches in his community. That makes him a hero.
Amen, he was a true hero
Definitely. AGREAT AMERICAN HERO,THANKS FOR SHARING THIS STORY, J.D.
Yes sir
What an amazing story. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Bravo, sir. 👏 👏 👏
Thank you Adam, have a blessed day my friend!
I knew the name, but not the story. Thanks for another glimpse into the Appalachan history 👍🏼
its a powerful story
We here in TN. know about A.C.Y. Watch the movie. Read the books. When men were men and knew it. God bless our fighters . Past and present. 🇺🇸 🙏 enjoyed the video. And all the others. Thank you.
Thank you 🙏
I wouldn’t say that he’s an unsung hero, he did win the Medal of Honor!!!!🇺🇸🫡
Thanks for watching and commenting. Have a blessed day!
what a great story! thanks so much!
Thank you so much!
I live in Albany ky not very far from here. Spent a lot of time in and around fintress co tn and I'm so proud to be ever so distantly connected to this man. My mom's stepdad was born in Jamestown and I have kin in Pickett Co TN just over the state line.
awesome
I have to tell you, you've got the absolute best voice for your stories. I love it! Thank you❣
Thank you Mary! So glad to have you here! Have a wonderful day
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller God bless you and yours. Hoping you have a great day aswell
I grew up in Jamestown played football for the Alvin C. York High School. Aka York Institute. Definitely have heard many tales about the great Alvin C.
he was a great man
