Looking forward to this.
Much of Appalachia remains untamed, relatively- but sadly, few pure locales remain.
Time to dig in...
As a born and bred Mountaineer (West Virginian) and youngest of 7 siblings with two wonderful parents from the Virginias. I was raised in a blue-collar Christian home. All 7 kids worked our own way through college and left...but have since returned. I've always said, 'You can take the boy from the mountains, but you can never take the mountains from the boy'.
Very proud of my Appalachian roots!!
Thanks for your story's!!
West by God Virginia proud
@The Appalachian Storyteller indeed!!
@@SMichaelDeHart born in the US by chance ,southern by the grace of God.
Perfectly said! I'm from Western NC mountains and have moved 4 times and came back home to my mountains.
@Yvonne McMahan thank you. My eldest brother retired to Boone (spending time in Florida during winter months).
Well, I listened to this story twice, and throughly enjoyed every word! These stories of your beloved mountains, and the people that live there, are not just enjoyable, they need to be told. The strength, courage, pride and wisdom of these people cause me, and probably, most of your followers, to hold our heads up alittle higher, with hopes of being some how connected, in our past, to the drive and strengths that your stories recall. Thank you so much for Sharing. God bless.
Absolutely beautiful, thank you so much
THE LORD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS AMEN 🙏
Amen
Well you've got me crying and the story's not over yet.
I wish I had the money to pack up and move up in the mountains. I know it'd be hard for me as old as I am but that'd still be alright. My ancestors settled in the Appalachias in Kentucky. They were Iris and Scotts. Some of the old ways of speaking still came from my Mama's mouth but are getting lost down here in middle Tennessee. Every generation uses fewer and fewer of those old time beautiful words and the scolding ones too. Like stop that gaumin fore I yank a knot in your tail. I couldn't help but giggle because we didn't know what gaumin was but we sure knew what yanking a knot in our tail meant. We would stop what we were doing and finally figured out it meant making a mess. She'd say it was a mite airish outside when a cool breeze was coming through the trees. She'd open every window on the house to air it out. We didn't have air conditioning so it felt pretty good. But I loved the word airish. I though it must mean fairies were on the breeze and maybe this time I'd see one. My imagination was such rocks could be my friends. Mama would say hidie to them like they was as alive as in my imagination. I had no other friends. Mama n Daddy thought they weren't necessary. I was child number 5. My sister 2 years older was the only friend I needed Mama would say. I longed fir a little sister. My big sister was kinda mean. So Mama finally had my baby sisters. One when I was 9 and the other when I was 12. I just knew she had them just fir me. I'm now 66 and they are in their 50s and they are still my babies. They want to take care of me and though I don't need it I have to let them. It'd hurt their feelings if I didn't. I guess you know by my age Mama n Daddy are not with us any longer. All 7 of us are still living. The oldest are in their 70s. I can't bear the thought of losing my oldest sister. We are two peas in a pod. She's 8 years older than I am. My husband was too. He passed 11 years ago and a year later her husband passed. We were always close but our loss has made us more so. She is without doubt the best person I know, then my baby sisters are next in that line. I tried to raise my 3 girls to be like that too. I mostly succeeded. 2 out of 3 are doing great. That youngest needs prayer if anyone is inclined to do so. Her name is Stacey Erin. A good Irish name I've been told. I thank you for the kindness.
Such beautiful memories, thank you for sharing them my friend
I’ll pray for her.. Love the story.. I just gave my son his first baby sister❤ he adores her
Lovely story which shows us how age doesn’t always mean wisdom. The world advances and sometimes for the better.
there's a powerful message in this story
As a 68 year old Englishwoman, recently installed in her first wheelchair, I shed a tear for the little boy who had his chance and escaped his inevitable fate. A lovely story which touched my heart. Thankyou so much. X
Beautiful, thank you so much Josephine
My dear lady, you have touched ours here in the south as well. Thank you mam.
That poor little boy
May God bless you ma'am!
God bless you mam from cullman..alabama...it's the foothills of Appalachian
Howdy. Another wonderful story. I was getting the "all overs" too when little Tadlock got out of the car and started walking over to his Grandpa and Grandma. You do a great job telling these stories. Thanks for sharing them. 👍
Thank you my friend, it always makes me smile when someone picks up on little phrases like the “all overs”
It always astounds me how people can watch this 17.5 minute video for instance, but are too lazy to take 5 seconds to hit the like button. I'm certain that The Appalachian Storyteller puts many hours into these stories and videos for the enjoyment of his viewers. Come on people, show a little appreciation.
Wow! Thank you so much for your kind words and support my friend! These stories take lots of work- LOTS. Thanks again- email me your address to theappalchianstoryteller@gmail.com and I’ll send you a free sticker
Truth. He is a true gem that deserves more recently 🙏🏽
As always, another fine story, told by you. Sometimes the good Lord has to try a different angle to reach us before we finally listen.
Amen my friend
Hey brother! Born an raised right 'cheer in TN in an old cabin. Barely got by but wouldn't change it for the world! Thanks for another amazing one JD. Have a good'n brother
Preciate ya Jared, enjoy this pretty Saturday here in East Tennessee
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller Amen to that brother! Will enjoy here in McMinnville too
WE must be so grateful for our current times, life is so easy. What a sweet story.
Amen and thank you 🙏
We do thoroughly enjoy your stories, along with the beautiful music. And the way you tell the stories, we visualise the happenings.
It takes me back to my childhood, listening to the Lone Ranger, The Shadow, and other great programs.
Its great to visualise again, instead of watching a screen.
I’m so glad your here
I love this story so much. I loved all the characters including old Pa. Even though there was perhaps some ignorance on Pa’s part he obviously meant well. The younger folks respect for their elders was beautiful and is sad that western culture has lost this.
Thank you for seeing the respect they shared, that was a very important part of this story
Wonderful, wonderful little story, made me get teary eyed. God is the only one that can heal you, God gave Drs. knowledge to hep you, but God is the one that can really heal anybody and it was Gods will for this sweet, cute smart boy to walk. What will be will be. Praise The Dear Lord Up Above.❤
🙏
This was so good! When they said he could see the doctor I was hootin’ and hollerin’ I was so happy! 😂😂 I get very involved in your stories as you can tell.
Thank you 🙏 there’s a powerful message in this story
Love “Lean on Jesus” and your beautiful stories.
Remember the Holbrook/Underwood feud. It’s horrible, but appropriate for how our Mountain Ancestors thought.
Oh yeah- I had forgotten about that story- thanks so much for sending me the info on this- next time I get around to producing a “Appalachias deadliest” type story- I’ll take a hard look at this.
Copperhill's up with the chickens this morning, JD, and listening to you spin a tale is an awesome start to a wonderful spring day! Lord willing, of course. I'm spending a week or so with my middle youngan and ima talk him into getting me one of yall'a shirts 'fore I go back home. God Bless, friend!

That's mighty kind of you my friend. Thanks so much for your support, I really appreciate it! JD
I always love your stories. Keep them coming. Have a blessed day.
Thank you ma’am, enjoy your Saturday
Sometimes being stubborn isn't being godly, it's feeling that you are a god because you have God. Answering "NO!" right off the bat without first praying and waiting for an answer to come is the first sign you're not exactly on the right track. Ask, and ye shall receive! Don't ask, and decide is gifting yourself what you already wanted.
Thanks for sharing that Bee
I hate to admit but this brought a tier to my eye
There's a powerful message here
Another great story J.D. and as always thank you for sharing with us ✌

Thank you ❤️
I wish you would do a story about Scranton Ms! Now known as Pascagoula. Named after the indian tribe that walk into the river singing . The tribe knew the Biloxi tribe was on their way. Instead of being slaughtered, they simply sang and drowned . I'm not sure if that is correct ? That's the story, my grandmother told ! Thanks
Oh, I almost forgot to tell you JD I enjoy your stories very much. 👍👍

Love the story. My mom went to a one room school as her mom.

This was a good one
Thank you!
Pawpaw was stubborn, but he didn’t want his frail grandson to be disappointed. He stood up basically admitting his wrong way, thinking, but I wonder if he was protecting the boy or himself. Wonder if his other son turned Methodist?
This is a great story
What a WONDERFUL Story!!!!! Is it a true one?
Yes sir
Awesome!! Thanks for your response, and efforts given to your channel!!
🤠👍
👍🏼
😊😊😊😊
Thank you Richard 😊
The moral of the story is,
To never stagnate in a pool of regret.
Amen
Hold on just a dagum minute there. How the heck do you git women proof . When all it takes for them is to walk and talk, bat their eyes at ya and maybe through back their hair and your hooked. Now ole Pa was tuff but even he had to give in to Miss Penelopes wiley ways. Deboone only learned to walk through Miss Penlopes perseverance. Although the parents and grandparents loved him dearly. Now didn't Miss Penelope teach us all a fine lesson?
Well said James, yup - I’ve never been able to get woman proof either!
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller can't talk right now my fiancee wants me to take out the trash , moe the lawn, pressure wash the carport, and then go shopping with her. So I can't talk or go fishen. @#$& $%@&, dagumit.😳🙄🤪👍
Shriners hospital eventually found out how to fix Charcot Marie tooth and other muscular distrofy
amazing!
Grandfather tadlock..living under 2 covenants. That was a lot of issue back then. Trying live under laws of Moses all while Jesus had came to give the new covenant. Can't be an eye for an eye and salvation through Jesus. Ten commandments still stand...too many died not understanding Scripture..in light of Scripture. (That's what all them back n forth, other books in the bible references are for! Elders aren't always right. Preachers arent always right. You'll find yourself a heap of trouble..not learning to read for yourself under direction of God.

Feminine ways of scheming 😮😂😂😂. You know what as a female I know that exists.
As a male- I know it exists too 😂
