    The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
    IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
    This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
    Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
    Some are famous.
    And some infamous....
    ....and some with tragic endings.

    Two more causes of death. Letizia Scalpone (1917 - 1925) died from pneumonia. Teresa Valentini (1915 - 1926) from "chronic periodontitist." I hope someone reading this will have sufficient medical expertise to explain how this condition would cause a death. A condition these days that would be cured with antibiotics?

      Chronic periodontitis disease was common, insufficient vitamins, scurvy was prolific. Fruit was the answer and cure. Chronic periodontitis is a severe inflamation of the gums due to bacteria. Early mortality rates were higher because of the lack of A. Dentists, B. Antibiotics were not yet available. Penicillin was just at its true beginnings 1928 Not everything could be treated with penicillin. Just like today penicillin cannot fix every infection.
      I hope this clarifies some of your questions

      @@beerybill @Guido Panadero yes, even now periodontal disease is a killer if not treated effectively and quickly. They say an infection over the baseline which is the upper jaw can spread easily to the brain. Now imagine a child with periodontitis bacterial infection spreading she would have become septic, the only treatment available was bleed out which involved removing blood from the patient to remove diseased blood. The antibiotic penicillin wasnt introduced until 1928 she died 2 years before which is sad, many deaths in this time was due to poor health, newborn deaths were contributed to RH factor. Now a woman is given a shot if she has - blood. Back then babies just died it is how the world moves forward, a death can lead to a cure. As sad as that statement is, it is very true.

    I had an Aunt who had two babies one lived three days the other was born dead. She had a picture of both of them in their caskets that she kept on her book shelf as long as she was alive. I remember as a child always looking at the pictures and feeling so sad. She would always talk about them with a smile. I will never forget that.

It’s the same with the tot’s hands, babes don’t have clenched hands all the time and Frank was past the age where babies often have clenched hands.

      @@FacesoftheForgotten I’m going to disagree on this one again, not that I’m being awkward but his eyes have a spark of life. It doesn’t matter how many patients I saw that had died, as soon as they passed their eyes lost that spark of life. With regards to the retouching, I went back through family photos dating from the mid1800s to about the 20s or 30s, there were also newspaper clippings and some of the photos had distinct touch up, some it was the eyebrows, others outlining the lips or whatever needed a wee touch up.
      You know though, perhaps we are missing the point whether the bairn was alive or dead at that point, it was a tragedy that maternal and child mortality was so high and how fortunate we are that we have vaccinations for those”simple” childhood diseases and infections that could rampage through a community leaving in its wake wee bairns in coffins and heartbroken mothers and fathers

    The Interbellum, Greatest and Silent generations sure had a hard start at life. And as you pointed out, many never made it past their youth. And it wasn't all that long ago from where we are now. There was a lot of suffering and sacrifice within those generations. A lot of parents lost children to disease and war. Sure, life isn't perfect nowadays but I think we often forget how far we have come in reducing human suffrage due to advancements in science, geopolitics (war), etc. We still have a long way to go but let us never forgot those who brought us to where we are now. Your videos sure do give those generations the respect they highly deserve.

    0:28 The first picture of the lady, when the camera is not close to it, it does look like Native American. I thought it before you said it. That is amazing how her hair style and the outfit she is wearing plays tricks with the eyes.
    2:34 I'm guessing alive.
    6:36 I agree completely! Disney princesses have nothing on this magical beauty. Such beautiful lady.

    I have some information on Vinceslao Giorgino (approx 15:16). Very interesting. He was born in Benestare Italy on May 24 of 1895. He immigrated to the United States and became a Naturalized Citizen in 1920. He was drafted into the military and I found his WWI Draft Registration Card. At some point, he took the name James George. On November 25 of 1924 he was doing repair work on some railroad tracks when he was hit by a traveling crane carrying coal bunkers, which severed his right leg at the hip. He was rushed to the hospital but died early in the morning of the 26th of November. They actually arrested the craneman, Frank Vestuto, on the technical charge of manslaughter. I did not find any information that he was actually convicted of the charge. It appeared to be accidental..so I would hope not.
    But that is the story of Vinceslao Giorgino, aka James George.
    I just love this stuff..thank you for what you do!

    When I visit the cemeteries I take a bag of plain flour to rub into the inscriptions that brings out the info needed. I always seek permission first and the flour is washed away by water or rain. It is advised not to use cement dust or any other type of materials as damage can be done to the stone to be read. Great walkabout. Cheers.

    In episode 11 you found the grave site of Nick Cacucci with picture of a child with no dates.
    I believe their child was Maria Cacucci born Nov 30, 1926 Chicago and died March 28, 1928 Chicago. Nick's real name was Vitonicola born July 12, 1895 Triggiano, Puglia, Italy died Aug 19, 1983 Chicago. He worked for F&S Transit. His wife was Rose Coppola born 1902 Manhattan, NY died Dec 5, 1978 Chicago. Their son Frank Peter Cacucci was born Dec 14, 1929 Chicago and died May 15, 1989. He served in Korea June 15, 1951 to Jan 18, 1952. He was a retired Chicago Police Detective from 1956-1984 and married Christine Ferrara. Christine was born Aug 7, 1932 and died Aug 2, 2020 Chicago. They had 3 children, Frank David Cacucci, Karen (Dan O'Kelly) and Cynthia (David Prazuch). Karen had prev marriage to John Gammuto and Karen had one prev marr to Joseph LaCognata. Nick can be found as Nick or Vito; sometimes Nick V. He immigrated to USA 1921 and naturalized as a US citizen. Frank's parents were Francesco Cacucciolo and Madia Addante.

    I love these grave ceramic photos. It's amazing how well preserved and clear they still are. Baby Frankie looks alive to me. Sometimes they did retouch photos and in Frankie's case it looks that the eyes were touched up a bit. That doesn't mean he was dead in the photo. Also they never painted open eyes on the body, it was always done on the photo itself or the negative. The ones in the caskets are quite obvious but I'm pretty sure baby Carmelita was dead when the photo was taken.

    • @FacesoftheForgotten

      @caspence56 3 роки тому +8

      Those were my thoughts, too. The picture doesn't even look like a real person, but more like an illustration or a drawing. Whatever it is it certainly does not look like an eight year old child.

      I thought it looked like a drawing. It's possible that the original photograph was taken in death and that they decided to have it drawn as though she was alive. What looks like a drape hanging down behind her head could actually be the side of her coffin.

    @peterjeffery8495 3 роки тому +1

    Pardon me but the "dead giveaway" in the postmortem picture of the child is how absolutely still he is. A living toddler would have been a nightmare to photograph in the days when if you didn't hold absolutely still you'd be just a blur. Dead subjects are eerily still.

  • @rlane63
    @rlane63 3 роки тому +12

    I think Frank may be dead. His eyes are neither particularly focused, nor fixed and "corpse like". More compelling is that both hands, but especially the left hand and fingers appear dark and swollen, evidencing post mortem, deoxygenated blood has collected due to gravity, once the heart had stopped. Because of this, Frank may have been dressed in tights to hide more pronounced post mortem lividity in his legs.
