  • On this Adventures into History video, Cecil and I return to the woods of Talbot County, Georgia to explore the historic Daniel-Brown Cemetery. This cemetery, dating back to the plantation era, showcases numerous pre-Civil War graves and is surrounded by a large iron fence. Within the fenced area, we find many marked and unmarked burials. Outside the fence, we discover additional unmarked graves, likely those of individuals who were enslaved on the Daniel and Brown plantations. Join us as we delve into the rich history and somber stories preserved within this historic cemetery. #AdventuresIntoHistory #HistoricCemeteries #TalbotCounty #DanielBrownCemetery #ExploringHistory

    Virginia Jackson Brown was my great great grandmother. I put the two pictures on Finda grave. One was a photograph and the other was a painting done by my grandmother from the photograph. She never knew her as she died when her mother was young. She painted several copies of that picture and gave them to family members. I'm related to the Daniel's and the Browns in that cemetery. I've never been to that cemetery. I am so glad you made this video.

      Often, they're in county records; including the location and some related information. Usually, the locals know of them. I used to do cemetery restoration work in Kentucky (despite living in Oklahoma). All I had to do was go to the Brandenburg KY public library. It was all there. The property owner showed me the location, then I spent one week every year from 2004 to 2018 finding the broken markers, and slowly piecing them back together again. But most work consists of clearing out old growth and debris. Very hard work, but very rewarding in the end. On subsequent trips, I found the Ancestral Trails Historical Society in nearby Vine Grove KY. That provided a lot of information on the people buried there.

    I think “relict” is derived from a Latin term. There was some basic Latin required for nursing. Anyway, it just means she was a widow. This place is kind of haunting in a way-I think it’s the way the sun hits the stones, highlighting the white and contrasting with the dark growth and moss. It’s like exactly how you would picture an old plantation cemetery, at least the way I do. Thank you to Cecil for finding us another place to explore!
