3:48 The sun's rays coming down are so pretty. You can barely see them but they are there.
Happy accident! 😊
I am from Akron, now living in SC and my mother is laid to rest there. It is truly a beautiful and memorable cemetary one of the best in the nation and is on the national historic registry of famous places.
A wonderful view of a beautiful cemetery. Did you notice the sun rays when you were in front of the first mausoleum? Quaker Oats is a big company here in Cedar Rapids. You can always tell when it's Crunch Berry day! I got chills about Mary
What an inspiring story! She probably would have volunteered to help in WW2.Great video!
Thanks Jan!
I didn’t notice the sun rays until I started editing the video. Totally accidental!
I feel the same way about Mary. Such an inspiration for all humanity!
Thanks again for all your support! 😊
Good evening, really interesting video. I love looking around church yards. I used to do this with my nan when I was younger. Her village church, in Buckland Dinham, near Frome, Somerset where she now lies, dated from around 1200, with later additions. Obviously the oldest grave stones were well worn. It is such a peaceful way to spend time and when I do the same now I always think of her, best wishes.
Thank you Dawn! I would love to visit a graveyard that dates back that far. Would be amazing!
How lucky you are England has some beautiful old churches like the one you mentioned dating to 1200! All those old castles and Churches and the history, America is just a baby compared to Europe! God bless,,,, Patricia Gambino Harrington
@@frankharrington4881 Good morning Patricia, I love exploring historic sites and buildings. I live not too far from several castles - built to 'repel the Welsh' along the Marches. We've also got the remnants of a motte and bailey castle and also an iron age hill fort in the local town, and a beautiful ruin called Whittington Castle very close by, have a wonderful day, best regards.
@@dawnrowlands2408 Good morning, afternoon for you, you are so lucky! Thank you for sharing that information! Patricia Gambino Harrington
Great tour! Beautiful fluffy white clouds and the picturesque cemetery! The sun with his warm light bathing those who have in perfect rest here. The light, the wind and
the twitting of the birds in the cemetery speak about the great people that once
walked upon this earth. Today! Yes, today
they are not belittled. Every whisper, every
bird and the murmuring of the wind proclaim
their greatness! Great people! Great video! And a never-before experience for me!
Thank you John! Thank you for your wonderful efforts!
You are so very kind Raju! And poetic as well! I love your descriptive writing. Beautiful indeed.
Thank you for all your support! I truly appreciate it!
Excellent video as always. It's fascinating to learn about how people lived all those years ago, I can't wait for part two. I love history, be it English, American or anywhere. And may I say I really like the musical score used it's haunting and beautiful very much like graveyards are in my opinion. I often visit graveyards to sit and reflect on life, death and the hereafter.
Thank you!
Graveyards are great for reflection. So peaceful!
Beautiful historic cemetary. I so enjoy when those who have gone before us, their lives are remembered and their stories told. Thank you. Absolutely excellant and enjoyed your video greatly.❤😊
Thank you Deborah! 😊❤️
Wonderful!! I enjoyed it immensely, but especially the story of Mary Gladwin, being a nurse myself,(retired). I look forward to more. Your research is thorough, and well presented.
Thanks Karen! The Mary Gladwin portion is my favorite as well. So selfless! She was Ana amazing person!
Hi John!!! What a beautiful lesson in History from the Cemetery. My goodness, people just do not know whom may be interred there, and what all they contributed to the good of this world. I'm looking so forward to part 2. The story of the Nurse was most touching, and i know she will have a home in Heaven for all the work she did during the wars. As always, stay safe on the road, and may God bless you and your family!!!
Thank you Lewis! I was drawn to the Mary Gladwin story the most as well.
God bless my friend. Thanks for your continued support!
That graveyard is beautiful! I need to visit Ohio I have fallen in love with it through your videos! Patricia Gambino Harrington
Production quality is getting better and better in these. It's so cool to know that there are folks out there who love history this much.

The nurse was amazing! Only ever heard of Florence.
Cool to learn about the man who made oatmeal ! A winter staple!😘
Thank you for watching Sandy! I liked Mary Gladwin’s story the most as well.
Another educationally satisfying tour through history. Thank you for all that you do to enrich the minds of all who are lucky enough to watch your work. May you sir and your channel be as an historical part of this state as the many you highlight. God Bless
I am honored and humbled by this comment. Thank you! God Bless you and yours as well! 😊🙏
This cemetery reminds me of Union Cemetery in Steubenville OH. A real garden cemetery too. Thank you fot highlighting this cemetery.
Union Cemetery is beautiful for sure! And it’s the oldest official cemetery in the state!
I had no idea that it was the oldest cemetery in the state. Very cool. Thank you for another bit of Curious History!
😊😊😊
Thank you for bringing history to life with these videos. So interesting !
LOVE & HUGS to all.
Thank you Diane!!😊😊😊
Another great video, really enjoyed hearing about the nurse. My daddy served in Wold War 2, the nurses were amazing he said. You never know what you can learn. Cannot wait to see part 2. Have a blessed night. Linda from Arkansas 😆 😆 👋

Your videos are very professionally done and so informative. Well done family of Curious History, well done.
Thank you Mary! 😊😊😊😊😊
That was interesting, and I look forward to part two! Mary certainly was a dedicated nurse. So fascinating about all her medals. All that travel to various countries must have been tiring. Especially as it would have been by ship back in those days. No quick flights by plane! Great video, as always🙂
Thank you Kiwi! 😊
Excellent video as always. I am off to look up Mary Gladwin’s books. What an interesting life!!
She was remarkable! Thanks for watching Dana!

@@CuriousHistoryYT No problem my friend looking forward to Gettysburg such a great place to visit
You always have the most beautiful music in your videos! :-D The history and lives of those who lay there are fascinating. I love walking among the gravestones during the day and reading the epitaphs as well as being fasciated by the artistry of the gravestones/mausoleums, etc.. :-)
😊😊😊
Very touching. Very well done.
Thank you Pamela! 😊😊😊
Well done - I learned a whole lot!
Thank you Tony! 😊
I'm new to your channel, but I really like listening to you tell a story. Well look for more videos.
Thank you Trammel!
Great video ❤️
Thank you Kristen! 😊❤️
This video was truly fascinating. I cannot wait untill part 2. Love all your videos.
Thank you Ed! 😊😊😊
Very interesting video. Great story lines on these famous people. This cemetery looks very beautiful. Just wondering if any of the companies are still around or changed names. At least Quaker Oats is still around. The civil war memorial really looks beautiful. It would have been nice if you could have walked inside and did a video on that. I'll be looking forward to see part two. Take care John.
Thank you Edward! Believe me I tried to get inside but there was no one there to help with that.
@@CuriousHistoryYT Maybe contact cemetery. Tell them you're doing a documentary for UA-cam. You never know they may let you in.
thanks for sharing these stories. love it!
Thank you for your support Liz! 😊
Yet another great video! I love checking out old cemeteries, and was shocked to see this video as I had decided to take a day trip to Glendale Cemetery this morning, its a beautiful place. Im looking forward to part two. Thank You.
Wow! Small world! Hope you enjoyed your visit! 😊
I used to live above it and sometimes went there to take rubbings from the decorative parts of the stones. Back home, I'd tint them with watercolors. I was devastated when the accident destroyed some of the stained glass in the chapel. It was gaudy but glorious.
I was shocked to hear about the explosion Elizabeth! And to think it happened right next to the caretakers house with a family living there! It’s a miracle no one was injured!
@@CuriousHistoryYT That maybe an interesting episode all by itself. As I remember, somebody decided to dump dangerous chemicals--might have been cleaning fluid--down a storm drain instead of expensive proper disposal. I heard the explosion as it blew manhole covers off all over my neighborhood. The only reported fatality was raccoon crushed by a falling manhole cover.
Yep as soon as I read about it I thought that would make a good stand alone video. Researching more about it next week!
@@CuriousHistoryYT I'm so glad. It's recent--well forty-plus years--but very real. Bless you.
Thanks for the video very interesting and educational, it's nice to learn about all of the people's accomplishments here in Ohio ❤️💯
Thank you Gary! I appreciate the support! 😊😊😊😊😊

My pleasure! Thanks for watching!😊
Thank you for this wonderful video.
Thank you SunNSag! I appreciate the kind words! 😊
Found it! Thank you YT!
One night, with the same people as Rogue's Hollow, we found a grave of a train engineer. I couldn't tell you where in the cemetary because it was 1990. We placed a cassette recorder on the grave and tried to get EMPs--even though they weren't called that at the time. When we arrived home and listened to the tape, there were train sounds intermixed with the sounds of the night insects, etc.
AWESOME!!!! Phantom train!?!?
@@CuriousHistoryYT No clue. It was very creepy as hell and I don't know what ever happened to it--she didn't become my roommate until several months later when her husband and she opened their home to me. Some of the adventures back then were really downright weird as if things were drawn to her. :)
As always a total pleasure to watch your video... I love how there's no fakery ,just great honestt factual history .... love from England....
Thank you Sharon! 😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️
