Eldora McMichael Hammock born April 21,1864-Died July 4,1954 lived 90 years buried at Sardis Primitive Baptist Church Rutland,Bibb County Georgia as found on Find a Grave
Oh thank you for looking her up and then sharing with us. Possibly went to live out her life with grown children and maybe there weren't enough funds to bury her beside her husband. Or the had previously agreed that when she passed, they would just bury her in their local cemetery where they could visit more often.
This one about did me in for a little while. When Robert read her age and then that her 12 day old baby was also buried there with her, this old grandma's heart just broke. I have 2 daughters. One just had a baby in November of last year and my youngest is currently pregnant. Both have older children, but to think how that loss would feel to her parents just hit me hard. Plus, the loss of her sister at nearly the same time. Oh my. And, my thoughts also went to this young mothers husband. How happy they would have been to be expecting their first baby and then to have it all end so tragically. This family's story was a tough one, and I certainly shed some tears.❤ Thank you, Robert, for reading these markers and for bringing their names to life again.
You gave them back their names that have not been spoken in ages. They may be gone but now not forgotten as we've heard and seen their names. Ty Robert!!
Benjamin R. Kelley's Epitaph: "This lovely bud so young and fair, Called home by early doom, Just came to show how sweet a flower, In paradise would bloom." I have never seen a cast iron marker like these. Tragic indeed, I could not help but cry. Being of such promise of a happy life and then gone without having seen a full life or her child's. Imagine the husband and father, just heartbreaking. So glad you spotted this and stopped, Robert. ❣❣👍👍
Gosh, this was a tearful one🥺 Thank you Robert for bringing us along with you. If people ask why my eyes are tearful and red I'll say that " I just watch a video of people that passed away 200 years ago".❤ Glad that the sisters and little babe are together and will be Resurrected again someday❤
Robert, my grandmother was killed in a car accident in her early 50's. My grandfather's name is engraved on her headstone, a double plot, but he remarried 5 years after her death and was buried by his second wife. I am sure that happened plenty of times when the person was widowed but still. had another 20 plus years of life. I know my husband had an aunt that died in her 40's from cancer. Her husband remarried, but he married a widow with whom he was married to almost 30 years and was only married to his first wife 20 years, but they agreed they would be buried by their first spouse with whom they both shared children. they had no children together. In my grandfather's case his second wife (she was like 15 years younger) was not a widow but divorced. As much as my mom and aunt hated it, she bought a double plot when he died and said she did not to be buried by her children's father but him, even though she lived another 30 years she did not marry again, and they are buried together. As his widow it was her choice, not his children's.
What a find! Yet another beautiful roadside cemetery out there in Georgia.😊 The iron plaques are a first for me, too. They're so pretty! I love that they tell something about the people buried there. Rachel was 16 yrs old then when she married. Died at only 18 after 2 yrs of marriage, with a 12 day old baby. Wondering if there were birth complications that neither survived, or illness that came on quickly. I'm thankful for the info on the plaque. I'm thinking that, with the size, materials, design, and structure of the headstones, they must've had money in them thar hills!😉 Thanks for taking us along on your trek to this hidden cemetery. Lots of wonderful history!🪦📜
Yes Cindy you are correct. > Rachel most likely from > 'Childbed fever.' ‘Childbed fever’ - 'Puerperal' sepsis due to streptococcal infection - was a common cause of death much feared by pregnant women until the end of the 19th century. > A 'Puerperal infection occurs when bacteria infect the uterus and surrounding areas, After a female gives birth. It’s also known as a postpartum infection / or / childbed fever. From the 1600s through the mid-1800s, puerperal fever, or childbed fever as it was more commonly called, affected women with severe and acute symptoms such as abdominal pain and fever. > But, why did her 12 day old baby die? > Infant mortality rate was much higher a hundred years ago than now. Back then 150 infants per 1,000 births died in the first year of life. Now it is about 8 per thousand births. Did her husband....being a Doctor, bring home a disease, after he treated one of his patients...? > We we never know just what happened...it's just SAD.
This was a wonderful find! The stones are beautiful and those iron plaques are unique. Sadly, the young woman with the baby died so young. I think childbirth might have had something to do with that. A lot of young women in that time died of birth complications. It's really awesome that you found this cemetery. Thank you for sharing with us, Robert.
I found on Find a Grave that W. W. Johnson ( William Wesley) was a captain in the 27th GA Infantry, CSA. He was wounded at Antitam. His wife was F.M.( Francis Miriam) and her maiden name was Stripling. They had 4 children, 3 girls and 1 son. Unfortunately, even though all this is on Find A Grave, there is still no death date listed for Francis. In the 1910 census for Crawford County Georgia, she and her husband were both listed. He passed in 1913 but she is also not found listed in any more Georgia census listings. Sounds like she most likely died before the 1920 census unless she moved out of state. Whoever put her info on Find a Grave had already done this research on her, trying to locate a death date and where she was buried. If someone has already commented with this info on the Johnsons, I apologize for duplicating it. I was just very curious to see if she could be found.
It seems pretty evident that Rachel either died in childbirth or shortly thereafter, her baby following soon after. Childbirth for women back then was a life or death decision, and for some women today still is.
What a beautiful small cemetery you came upon with those cast iron ornate headstones. Iv’e seen ornate fences but never those headstones. So sad to see so many young lives lost. Young mother and her newborn probably died from complications with birth. RIP
Truly enjoy visiting old forgotten ghosts with you. Mention of their names brings them alive again for a moment of thought . . . Bless them all both saints & sinners all. Life is curious. It is experienced but only ever rarely in the control of spirits living through it.
Thank you, Robert for stopping to document this cemetery. And thank you that you have such a kind heart I could hear it in your voice. God bless you sir.
Thanks Robert for reading the markers. Like you my heart broke for the young mum and her sweet baby who's life was over before it began. Sadly maternal and child deaths were at an all time high. May they rest in peace as they deserve. ❤
Amazing cemetery. Wouldn't it be beautiful if it could be cleaned up just a bit. Those cast iron markers are a first for me also. Thanks Robert for the tour.
Very interesting- Thank you for sharing as you do🧐👍👍👍So Much Family History is there🕊️All those children 😢Your description area is so important info. shared🎉
That was a amazing find, but so very sad. Their sadness was shown beauty through the fineness and the respect that their family delivered them in remembrance. So sad but so beautiful. Thank you Robert for stopping and sharing
I have seen a cast iron marker in the shape of a cross in the Saint Joseph's Cemetery in Menomonie, WI! There are two there, of German inscription and way in the back.
So cool to see you in my neck of the woods. My grandparents were born in Crawford County, such an interesting old cemetary, (If only we could look back in time), prettey certain the road was not their at the time either. I have seen several headstones/buiral sites along the roads and highways in Crawford County throughout the years, but admittedly never stopped to view them, "oh the stories they must tell". Thank you for bringing this one to us.
Found Mattie's Find A Grave her first name is Matilda Mother's last name unknown where she's buried is also unknown Mattie and her Husband John went onto have 5 children 4 boys 1 girl
Robert, we've talked about this before: For your safety you need to have someone who knows where you are when you go on these treks. (I had to pause the video to comment because I was too distracted by my worries to enjoy the content, which was excellent as usual.)
Certainly an intriguing cemetery. I've not seen grave markers like those up here in Ontario before. We do have some very old first settlers cemeteries along the lakes. That cemetery has some really quite beautiful markers. Thank you for showing us this one.
Another reason why I love Georgia as it has so much history. You finding this small area of a cemetery was astonishing. The headstones, many were beautiful n ornate. Especially seeing that large memorial iron of the two was amazing. Never have I seen anything like it from that era. That one with Rebecca broke me up. I’m sure she died from child birth. Unfortunately that happened a lot. Wonderful documentation Robert. Thanks for sharing. ♥️♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟
Would love to hear more of this site.. My family hails from Pembroke, there is a familu cemetary at the church my great, great grandfather helped build which is still there and in service..
I so enjoy your videos and especially the history that goes with them. I would like to see you and Dan go back to the spooky cabin where you and Dan both heard the foot steps inside while you were under it.😂 Take care Bub.
ive never seen these markers either.A lit of young girls married so young and pregnancy just not always easy,too young usually no doctors and C Sections were not done ,so sad ❤️
You know robert you know a good thing for you to use would be hunt stand app or a hunting app because you can mark your location and save them and can keep up with those grave yards
The link between the Hammock and Johnson families is that William Wesley Johnson had a sister, Mary Ellen Johnson born 1838, who married Felix Welborn Hammock b. 1835. They married in Crawford County in 1855. Their son, William H. Hammock is buried in this cemetery and is the nephew of William Johnson. Another son of Mary Ellen Hammock was living with Wm. Johnson in the 1880 census, also named Felix Wilborn Hammock, born 1862.
I have Johnsons in my family but they intermarried with the Hardemans and Sirmans and are in Lanier County GA. Beautiful cast iron plaques. They must have had money.
From Find A Grave: F M Johnson (Frances Miriam Stripling Johnson), born Feb 11, 1835 - death date unknown. Francis and her husband can be found living together in the 1910 US Federal Census in Militia District 521, Crawford, Georgia, USA. From observing their double headstone, it seems that her husband preceded her in death. She is not found in any census beyond 1910.

Probably an epidemic. Her sister died 20 days later.
I also wonder if the baby was premature?

Eldora Hammock is buried at Sardis Primitive Baptist Church in Rutland, Bibb County, GA according to Find a Grave.
From Find A Grave:
F M Johnson (Frances Miriam Stripling Johnson), born Feb 11, 1835 - death date unknown.
Francis and her husband can be found living together in the 1910 US Federal Census in Militia District 521, Crawford, Georgia, USA.
From observing their double headstone, it seems that her husband preceded her in death. She is not found in any census beyond 1910.
Eldora Hammock was not buried by her husband, who died 42 years before she passed away. She was buried in Bibb County.
