Hi y'all. Heads-up, this Monday, April 17th is Emancipation Day. Thanks for all you do.
Robert: I really appreciate your pointing out the details of vegetation, the plants, bushes, trees, I find this so interesting.
What is the spelling of the plant @ 18:40 ? I'm not familiar with that. (I'm in NW Tennessee, so we share some of the plants and not others)
I'm going to get down to GA, to explore. I'm really interested in the area where there was Mayan influence.
Regardless of what the Mainstream Academics deny, and that's a great deal, there are vast obvious structures to indicate the flourishing previous Civilizations upon our Planet.
History is one of my degrees. BTW, my best to you, and Dan, I truly appreciate his History stories. The episodes where you and Dan explore are delicious watches, the ones where you and Dan take a little Road trip and the History stories 💯
I think you 2 should take a vacation week and Explore North GA and Alabama, I'll meet ya in Muscle Shoals and buy lunch! 😉
That's a dandy idea! ... and week of footage.
@@bethbartlett5692 nandina domesticata, a non native plant coming from asia. Common names: heavenly bamboo or sacred bamboo. Try to remove them so they don't crowd out the native host plants. They propagate by seed and through root colonization.
Have you ever bumped into a ghost or spirits out in your adventures?
It's almost as if little "Fronie" was buried twice ... poor little thing. Uncovering her marker and reading her name let's her know that she is not forgotten and STILL loved more than she knows. 💕🙏
Yes, exactly
My great grandmother 's name was Sophronia and she was called Fronie.
Fronie Casey. She was the Daughter of J.C. & Esther(King) Casey and Granddaughter of Stephen & Phillis King. Died a small girl.
Just wondering if her parents pre-deceased her and that’s why the grandparents buried her because she was living with them
@TXplowgirl
It's a precious nickname. A number of interesting historical names are realized in these videos. They each have their unique era influence.
My great aunt's name was Pearl, in their era Gemstones were prevalent: (Ruby, Opal, Emerald, and Pearl were used routinely).
19th into 20th Century.
My G-Aunt was born in 1888. She lived until 1971, 83 years. She was a beautiful woman, I adored her and spent much time with her. I'm told that I took after her and another Aunt, other side, one of my dad's sisters said she felt I favored her a great deal, That made my Happy List.
I was a youngster in that time, I truly wish she and My Grandmother could have been in the Physical throughout my life.
I know they are with me from the Nonphysical, my belief on the subject of our Life Journey is: "We are eternal Soul Energies, infused into a Human Vessel, upon it's expiration we continue in the Nonphysical state.
This is actually supported by Quantum Physics. It is also a most positive and secure feeling, knowing we will emerge into a state and be with our lives ones.
Some whom have experienced NDE (near death experiences) say this is the case, and the influence of our beliefs, relative to the "Universal Law of Attraction" is also part of the experience, to what degree, I'm not aware.
Most interesting, in time we are discovering vast more accurate information, and we likely will reach a point where we all will benefit in a far greater Mature Minded state of Thought, giving a true value of a most positive experience of living in greater Harmony. (That just requires the removal of fear based thoughts/beliefs, and being Conscious in Thought + applying Higher Mind.)
Going from an Emotional Development of an Adolescent to Higher state of Mature.
Thought changes everything, and it can certainly go from Lower to High, desired, Joyful.
I do enjoy how Robert & the other Robert interact. They are amusing and entertaining. The light bantering between them is wonderful!
The “Robert’s are great together! The other Robert is such a hard worker! Really loves this! Great man!!
The grave of Phyllis, Wife of Stephen King, with the hand holding the piece of broken chain, was simply amazing. I'm so glad you guys were able to uncover that historic grave. This whole series has been awesome. Kudos to Robert, the Other Robert, and Mrs. Other Robert! Excellent work uncovering these pieces of history!
It is so sad to see these cemeteries forgotten.
@@Ronin.Samurai Yes it is heartbreaking to see this.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this series! Thank you both Robert's! And Robert,I was born in 1960,so I was very happy to hear you say that wasn't really old,lol-thank you for that,too!
Seeing this in this condition, is so heart breaking and to know that noone is taking care of this or even attempting to care for this. ALL these people has worth and all of them had histroy and to see them all so disrespected in this way is sickening. Thank you both for bringing back the name of some of these people. Question, are you two Roberts distanly related??
LOL....and don't forget, he ate your sandwich too! You guys are a hoot. What a great find. Thank you for taking us along! 💖💖
11:33 Amazing work Robert’s on bringing back the names of individuals not mentioned in decades. Thank You
Thank you -
How exciting and historically interesting!! Love, love, love this adventure ❤ Thank you both Roberts for taking us along and a Big Thank You to Other Robert for finding the cemetery.
I just love Grandpa!! You both are incredible, thank you for all you do!
Lolol love your Robert's banter.
Do people ever contact you because you've found one of their ancestors?
My mom, rest her soul, would love to have been crawling thru the brambles with you.
There is an old cemetery built on a hill in Roslyn Washington you would enjoy. The people keep it up pretty good. Mom always took all our visitors to see it.
That was a great video with both my favorite Roberts. I hope you can find out more details about the church and possibly 2 churches because I wouldn't be surprised to hear that one church was for the African American folks and one for the White folks. And if there was a plantation nearby, that would add even more interest. These folks have no longer been totally forgotten thanks to you two!!
Nice to see Robert and Robert together again, thank you for sharing and another lost cemetery,
Love the Roberts together! 😄Awesome finds!
Love seeing you 2 together
Thank you! You two Roberts are a hoot!
I love the videos with you and Robert together. But I can't drink coffee when I'm watching, you two are too funny together.
You guys are gutsy. RIP to all buried on both sides.
That was a cardinal y'all heard singing. I listen to all the birds here at home a lot. Sometimes I like to mess with my birds here by pulling up a Utube vid of a bird I see close by & playing their calls on my phone. It's kinda funny sometimes. They'll even fly close to me looking for the bird I'm playing. But beware .. I don't do that unless I'm in the breezeway under cover just in case they decide to fly over me & relieve themselves .. a birds revenge .. lol.
Anyway that's so so many graves y'all found. It's so good to see u 2 together again & listening to y'all's banter. Thank you both for documenting all of these. This one was a real booger & I'm sure very tiring. Y'all b safe & well. Phenomenal Job here. Blessings ❣️😊✌🏼
Wow, this is by far the best cemetery find ever! This must have been one of the biggest plantation in the state to have this many African American Black human beings entombed on the side near a swamp, spring or pond. This place should be marked on the state's national registry. And have a logging company come in with overseers (not to damage or bury more graves) and clear the entire area out. A fence should be put up off the road and a entrance to a sacred place. By far Neon Bob, found real TREASURE out here off this road! A SHOUT OUT TO NEON GREEN ROBERT and YOU!
Plantations would have been nearby - this was a church graveyard
Goodness, the other Robert brought all sorts of things today. I love your knapsack.
I miss seeing videos like this with you two. They aregut wrenching but you two are fun to watch and these discoveries are amazing. They really pique my curiosity. Donna/Norther Michigan😊
Lots more to come! And our solo adventures also -
Wow, what an amazing graveyard. Thank you, Roberts, for episode 43. Keep up your explorations.
Love to see your excitement when finding these graves. Thanks guys.
Love you two and your humor! What an interesting cemetery all those souls on either side of the road.
Absolutely love the 2 Roberts together xx
This is so exciting! It would be so cool if this were all restored.
So glad Roberts you both keep pushing through the briers and finding headstones!! Thank you both!
I just can not get enough of these two cemeteries. Please return.
Epic! Amazing place. "Life was hard back then. Now look at them," the Other Robert. If that one statement does not sum this up and so many other of these adventure videos nothing does. Absolutely the truth. This has to be one of the best group of videos - all I will always remember. #4 already too. No wonder you needed Coke Coffee for editing or had you run out? You would need an Army to clean that place up. I am going to have to research some of these people if I can find records, so curious. Nooo teeth in the tree. Scary!! Creepy!! I will be watching all 4 videos again to let it all sink in. 👍👍❣️❣️
Curious here too! Let us know what you find out, alas, I tried to find Robert Laster but there was too many to find out exactly the one in this cemetery.
Wouldn't that be wonderful to get a bunch of people together and clean up both cemeteries
@@marymcguffin9370 Yes, it certainly would.
That was a lot of graves & it's so nice when you read out the names on the headstone.
Hello, and good seeing you both. I am very amazed to see this beautiful part of history .Thank you for sharing this with us. Take care to you both...
I enjoy watching you two
OMD! 🐾🐾 You two are so funny. What a terrific find, so wish there was a way to find all the marked graves.
Love watching your show. Scanning family pictures, feeling connected to the past.
I just love you both and interacting together! Nice Cemetery/Graveyard!!
Glad you are giving attention to the neglected (Both sides) cemetery. Some of the graves are on the Internet on Find-A-Grave but many are not - no stone and maybe so far, no cemetery burial listing?
What an amazing job you're doing Robert and other Robert. It's so interesting to see you guys interact
Awesome history lesson. This cemetery is huge! So glad you are documenting it.
We appreciate you two! Amazing and sad but you guys always bring the comic relief! ❤
Such amazing work the two of you do. Finding these cemeteries and reading thier names aloud once more. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you both Roberts. You guys are the best. God Bless🙏. Joyce ❤️🙏🇺🇸
I almost choked on my coffee this morning while watching this. When you uncovered the name Lennard I thought that possibly you found one of my ancestors but the name was definitely wrong. My maiden name is Lenhardt but I have seen spellings such as Lenhard so I had to back up and check again lol! So sad that in all of these graves, are there, not any descendants who can organize and clean this up? Could you find photos of what this used to look like? I love your videos and Grandpa. Thank you
I love you guys, you make my day,
That was wonderful
These graves should be protected
Who knows what story they can still tell
The little girls grave got me
Yall be careful in those woods. Check for ticks and snakes! Great work! Glad the other Robert brought his tools.
I really enjoyed this! You 2 are a great team!!
Totally dig that ending! “What? I do the research and I’m paying for gas? Forget that! I’m walking! I’ll get back before you do!”
Enjoy your videos. May the Lord bless and protect you and Robert and bringing out the past history
Loved these videos! The care and time y’all take to do this is amazing but where’s Dan.
I love these buddy videos! You two are great together!
Thank you guys !!! Great discovery !
Absolutely love watching you guys together. RIP Other Robert's sandwich. 😂
Glad you gate back together ❤
Awesome video guys, my favorite part is having their names spoken aloud. wonder how long it has been since.
This is the best Adventure I've seen so far since I have been watching, I think since 2019. Thank you all so much for uncovering this very sad situation. Jessica's Nana
What good work you are doing.
incredible from the 1700s to the 1960s thanksfor saving it
God bless you Robert you do so much work and your young age well young Rodney just stands around hahaha honestly God bless you for what you do and the both of you I say it over and over again you guys are completely awesome ✝️♾️🛐🙏♥️
P.s. you two are Abbott and Costello 2.0
Thank you for all you do
I have a suggestion. Consider purchasing a All terrain Weed& Brush Trimmer. That would shred up those"Briars and other Weeds".
Just a thought.
Sincerely Yours 🤠 Mr Severance,
"The Cake 😋 🍰🎂 🥳🎉 🎈🥂🎊 Man ".
I love you guys and your antics.
Do cemeteries like that one still belong to churches or are they on public land now or are they private property? I sure would like to see some sort of non-profit--maybe tied to a local historical society--restore these cemeteries. There's so much history there! It's a shame to see how these pioneers and settlers have been forgotten.
Depends, sometimes still belong to a long gone church on tax records, other times wind up as private property, and sometimes (the best solution) cut out as a cemetery
Awesome ♥️
Great visit. ---How often are you seeing snakes, now that spring is headed for summer?
Thanks Robert's
Central California watching
Loved this series!! Thank you.
The purple glass by the gravestone I do know what it is from now thanks to you!
Love other Robert and his wife … thank you for the videos
You guys found a relative of mine across the road! I am determined to find out more about EC Higdon so I can place him on the family tree and record his place of burial. Can you give me the approximate location of his grave so I can pass it on to his closer kin. I would just like to be able to say he is buried in such and such county or town or something. Thank you so much and God bless you in your work.
You guys are the best!!
So enjoyed this series!!
Nice to see something different for a change. Do you record the names and dates of the markers and cemeteries they are in for future reference by you or for people looking for family plots and members?
Quincy, Massachusetts
I do fancy they are grateful and thanking you for remembering their names and revealing their graves as well
Amazing pair of cemeteries there. Wow!
Thank you for what you do
You both are so kind
Thank you, I enjoyed the continuation. I look forward to more. Ty Mr Robert :)
Thank you for your hard work and knowledge.
Thanks for this❤
Love love these videos. Sure wish I lived closer. Love from Australia. Stay safe. Love you all. 🥰🥰
Just an amazing incredible graveyard 🪦 and video
I love these adventures. You need another camera person 😂😂😂
Definitely do - camera man, host, editor is hard work 😅 that’s why I make Other Robert do it now -
Awesome like always!
Thank you
This cemetery looks to be several acres on either side. Hope y’all try to do some restorations on it. But, y’all still funny together. COMIC RELIEF! Better bring a bigger steak sandwich next time and a big jug of tea
💔 Thank you for doing this work.
This is such an interesting video.... Great job other Robert and Robert...is there any records of the burials from back then? So sad they are forgotten,,,even the latest grave.
Sometimes, but they can be kinda hit and miss
If I am correct, Mrs. Phyllis’ grave with the broken chain may mean she was either born out of slavery or was enslaved and died free.
This was quite interesting. It feels like you are just skimming the surface though. Don't county assessors have land records that would identify everything? What county is this and what are the GPS numbers?
I have really enjoyed this hope someone would clean both sides up
Always enjoy learning from you guys & listening to y'all joking around with each other 😅😂
Glad you enjoyed
Grandpa always said 'don't eat the other Robert's sandwich ' Robert 🤣💚
Oops
Great video! Thanks guys ❤
Great job
My god i love these New Zeland
Such history behind all those grave markers I wonder what their lives were like. Fronie is such a sweet name. Sad she died so young 😢
Kudos guys!
Have you looked for the cemetery on Google maps? It might give you an idea how large the cemetery is and maybe see some of the tombstones too.
Yes, all you see is trees -
Could the deer jawbone be dragged up into the hollow tree be by an owl or a wild cat (cougar or bobcat)?
You and Other Robert are doing an amazing job fiding lost graves. Is this cemetery or graveyard on Find a Grave? Relatives were still burying in the cemetery in 1950s and 1960s so it was forgotten as long as it originally appeared.
I started to say we don’t have cougars here - but that would be wrong cuz every now and again there is a sighting. I’m not sure if it’s on FindAGrave
@@AdventuresIntoHistory Yes, I just found it. If a person is interested it can be found on the Internet but I am not going to link it here. About 40 graves are photographed on Find A Grave.
@@lindawoody8501 great! Thanks!
@@AdventuresIntoHistory Here's where Linda has mentioned they can be found on the internet but no link or name. She said she sees 40 buried there?? I couldn't even find that
@B Koenning Ah ok thanks. I used several others but not hers. Sisters ❣️
