Thank you for posting about this cemetery. The Spanish style one is my father in law's grave site. My husband and his brothers worked very hard to make his site a special place for his family to visit him. I think it turned out beautiful! My in laws also have gone to cemetery to mow the lawn there and clean up cemetery. That is great that you are teaching your daughter about those fansinating places.
Your family has really created something special, unique and beautiful. I really loved what has been done for his memorial. It's always nice to see people that choose to honor their loved one and still care for the cemetery too. Thank you for doing that.
It's good to get them out in all that when they are young. I have had them all out in cemeteries but she is the only one that really enjoys it as well as other little adventures. If her sisters aren't around then she likes to do it. Thanks for watching! I'm enjoying all the stuff you've been sharing in CA!
My dad is buried at Ft Gibson National Cemetery, so when I see someone who picks up a flag and puts it back in the ground, it warms my heart. Thank you.
It's the least we can do for people like your father. I have a lot of respect for veterans. I spend quite a bit of time uncovering their graves and placing flags on them. It means a lot to me. Thanks for watching and sharing about your father.
Hi Rhetty, What I loved about this video is it is showing how you are teaching your daughter respect for those souls who have passed on before and their graves. She is learning from a great dad. I learned about cemetery respect from my parents and grandfather, and my son learned it from me! Waving from a rainy day here in Michigan~
It's the best way to pass it on! All of my girls have been in a cemetery and taught to respect them. I've had them in several cleaning them up. I don't think the others enjoy it as much as this one does. She's my little adventurer. If the others are around then she isn't so much. I learned from my paternal grandmother so hopefully she will carry that on. Thanks for watching from Michigan! Hope you're not getting flooded!
So nice to see your daughter with you. Brought back fond memories when I used to take my 3 sons with me when I would visit my parents and niece's graves. After their initial helping out taking care of the graves, they would wander off and play in the woods nearby collecting cat tails and then helping righting flags in the VA section. Now that they are grown, they've told me of visits they've made on their own to various friends (sadly) and relatives.
It's always sad losing friends and relatives. But when that happens and it's someone you truly care about I think it will probably open your eyes up on cemetery care. Especially if something isn't right. I learned from my paternal grandmother and I've tried to pass that down to my girls. I think my youngest who is in this video gets it for sure. Thanks for watching.
The Canadian Valley News, Jones City, Oklahoma Friday August 18, 1905: "A gloom was cast over the little town of Witcher and the whole east part of the county by the death of Daniel J. Witcher and his wife, which occurred Tuesday. Mrs. Witcher died on Tuesday afternoon and that night, Mr. Witcher passed away. The cause of their demise was typhoid fever. The funeral services of both were held Wednesday afternoon under the auspices of the Odd Fellows’ fraternity, of which order Mr. Witcher was a member. Burial was made in the cemetery two miles north of Witcher. Mr. Witcher was one of the best known farmers in the county and was an extensive land owner. His death and that of his estimable wife is mourned by all who know them."
@@RhettyforHistory I live in Ok. MI lost two children in the 1970's time period. They are buried at Castle, Ok. Where my first husband and I lived at the time period. Now my present husband and I- We lived at Blackwell Ok. from 1987 til 2014 moved to Tulsa to care for an ill father and now on our path way of life we moved back to Kay county. Where my husband and i and are raising twin grandchildren whom are 12. I love walking graveyards with my husband or any of the kids or grand kids or anyone else whom will walk and visit graves here. I will upright flowers when and if possible. I love the news bit you put on of Witcher Ok. I wish we could all pass news of blessings on to others of things as this. I work on Ancestry and Find A Grave and talk alot of the Ancesry things hoping as time goes by someone in my family will get interested of our kinship in the Oklahoma Hills or belong another beautiful graveyard to visit is Resthaven-Sunset Memorial Park of Ponca City, Ok. It is such a beautiful place so cared for and the lady I spoke to in the office was such a blessing to speak with and she is quite helpful. Also I love the Find A Grave website. It is an online cemetery you can actual leave flowers for your loved ones. From an online computer visit.
Yes findagrave is awesome! There is a lot of information out there on it and I've used it a lot both in looking for someone and in entering information I have found. I'm glad to see you are teaching the younger generations about cemeteries. We need more people interested in them and willing to help protect them. Thanks for watching!
Hi Rhettie This was nicely done and interesting. It was also nice to know this beautiful cemetery is maintained by the volunteers who care very much for this cemetery. They sure a wonderful people. Thanks again as always take care and have a nice Labor Day weekend.
Thanks Carmela! You're right it is good to see volunteers doing something like that. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope you have a nice Labor Day weekend as well.
appreciate ur excellent tour guide there as u filming... I used to love going on any adventures with my Dad...another Eaton in the area hmmm...again great informative video thank u Rhetty...
Thank you Jessica! She loves going on these little adventures when her sisters aren't around. They have all been in cemeteries and different things but aren't too keen on it. The youngest likes it though. I had to wonder if this Eaton was related to Frank. I also wondered if the Jones and Spencer families had anything to do with the towns named that. Those aren't too far away. Thanks for watching!
I'm hoping so! Out of all my girls she is the only one that really gets interested in it. They have all been involved in cemetery projects at one time or another though. Thanks for watching and commenting.
You're right about that. This would have been a country cemetery and it's probably been swallowed up by Oklahoma City growth over the last 20 or 30 years. I think it's neat to see where town names and street names etc come from. Thanks for watching!
i enjoy your videos. living in the great lakes region i am amazed by how little lichen is growing on the headstones. here in 5 years the stone can be completely covered in it.
You should go to the Concho cemetary, it's the American Indian cemetary outside of El Reno ok. It has some of the most beautiful statues, and people leave their loved ones favorite things on the gravesite.
I liked the statue of the child and dog sitting on a bench. You'd think that because there are older headstones in this cemetery that there would be more residents in it. A lot of baby deaths which is always tragic. If you're not careful your daughter will take over your you tube channel some day. Lol. She found a lot of interesting headstones. Thank you for the tour. 😀💕
Thank you for watching! Out of my four girls she is the one that likes the cemeteries the most. All have been in them of course. Thank you for watching!
It is good to have her doing that. We have four girls and they have all helped but she is the only one who really enjoys it like we do. Thanks for watching!
If this is your bag, you might consider visiting Oakwood in Austin. If you can plan your trip during spring to coincide with the blooming bluebonnets, that's a bonus with trip. It has it all.
@@RhettyforHistory You're so considerate to reply. This additional response is because the youth in your clip obviously shares your enthusiasm. I am Cherokee, and a longstanding tradition my family participates in every 3rd Saturday in May is called Decoration Day. If not for this appointed day, many gravesites would've been lost to the woods. These cemeteries are commonly reached by unpaved roads, sometimes through creeks, not over and above (as in bridged), are not well-known to anyone but relatives of the interred. These graveyards are still burying recently deceased. The plots are free of charge. The cemetery where my family is buried is named Chuculate. (Pronounced CHOO kah layt) It's over 140 years old. There are many like it all throughout NE Oklahoma in Indian Territory, way out in the boondocks. Come up and meet "all us Indians". We'll tell you anything you want to know. (And probably much more.😁) Your introduction of a youngster to this element of life is going to keep her grounded (pardon the pun), and prepared for proper behavior at any funerals she attends in the future. And she will serve as ambassador of the subject to her age group, I'm certain. Happy hunting.
I try to do that with the flags no matter what cemetery I'm in. I'm sure there is a lot more told on findagrave about each person who is interred there. Thanks for watching!
I sure like learning from you about the grave stones. Hearing the old names and dates is very interesting. I will subscribe to your channel. Thanks for the videos you make.

That does sound like an interesting one to visit. We had plans to go to England but we aren't quite sure when that will happen now. Thank you for watching.
@@RhettyforHistory Thank you for your service. I was a reserve Deputy Sheriff for Salt Lake County. So, yeah, I too love the flag. I could tell you had served. Just didn't know where. Thank you.
@@RhettyforHistory I most definitely will. Since she has passed I will reach out to my aunt's and see if they can help me out. Find a Grave.com may have some lineage listed as well.
My aunt was buried by the government unfortunely. She was not close to her family. I was the only one who would talk to her,however, she deserved her family to be there. Her daughter's comment when she told me of her passing was " oh, well ". When. Y mom passed neither came to pay any respect, I don't understand it Rhetty.
It's sad to see that happen but I know it does. Each of us are unique and each of us should be loved. We all have our faults but we all deserve that. May your aunt and your mother rest in peace. And at the very least they have you and now you have shared their memory so they have even more. Thank you for sharing with us all Nadia.
And I took my kids to the cemeteries to look at the dates and stuff we also looked at the names and we wrote some down to trace them back to where they originally came from Germany scotland-england wherever it might be something you'd like to do with your daughter tracing back the family names
We've done a lot of that and much more. From set headstones, build fences, install flagpoles, edge, mow, unearth corner markers, unearth headstones to trim trees.
If see rocks on A GRAVE it's symbols something. I seen it in a documentary somebody said that money and rocks means it's Jewish it's a Jewish belief I'm going to Google it and find out what it's all about

That's always been important to me and I want them to understand why. Thanks for watching and commenting on that.

RhettyforFun it is wonderful that your youngest is traveling with you.
Rhetty I believe they said " it is what it is" not oh well. Just as bad and tasteless.
Interesting to see your daughter exclaiming over the little ones lost. The volunteers are doing a wonderful service.
I think it helps her realize how precious life really is and to be thankful for what you've been given. Thanks for watching Karen.
You’re a good man. Making efforts to put things right ....and bringing your daughter to learn to appreciate this kindness .
She really gets into the exploring and cemeteries. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for the lovely little stroll through the cemetery Rhetty.
Remembering those that have passed, means they never die. ❤️Jodie 🇦🇺

Great presentation. Thank you so much.
Thank you Rita! I appreciate you watching!
Thank you for sharing the video and up righting the flags next to the grave stones.👍

This wants me to explore country cemeteries like we used to. There is so much history to see in a cemetery. tfs

Hey Rhetty thanks for the tour very interesting as usual
You're welcome. I appreciate you watching and coming along with us.
The mexican style grave was my grandpa I loved him very much. Thank you for admiring his grave.
He really does have a nice final resting place. I could tell he must have been a special man.
I love walking through cemeteries. Yes, there is a cache there. Right near the gate.
I didn't see it but in researching the cemetery I did see it pop up on the search.
Keep up the great job your doing....Thanks...

here in 5 years the stone can be completely covered in it.
Wow! That is quick! Some cemeteries are filled with it here and then others have very little if any at all. I guess everything has to be just right.
PS, That’s the first Spanish grave I have seen! Thank you Rhetty✌️
Oh really? I have a couple videos in New Mexico that show some Hispanic graves as well as some in Texas. Thanks again for watching.
