It was the same here. I have an acqaintance who lives in a farmhouse that served as an overnight stagecoach stop when originally built, it looks like an old hotel in some ways. It is situated about 60 miles east of present day Toronto (then York) and would have likely been the overnight stop on the first leg of the journey between what is now Toronto and Kingston. I can't imagine it was a very pleasant roadtrip, although the number of shipwrecks along the shores of Prince Edward Peninsula, which had to be bypassed if travelling by water along the Lake Ontario shoreline to reach Kingston, would have seemed even more perilous for those who felt safer on land. I'm no historian, but I do have lots of horse experience as both a long distance rider and a teamster, and the logistics of stage journeys fascinates me knowing what horses are capable of as well as their limits.

"Don't pick up things that you dont need to pick up." Nice. 😀

This guy. Out here interring graves for KZbin and doesn't know the names of shovels.😂

My family is from White Rock, Maine. This is fascinating.

Fascinating! I’m trying to prove New England roots. GSMD is a demanding organization. This is a great resource!

Magnificent

Nice video. Do you need insurance when starting a business? How to you get permission from cemeteries? Thx.

I didn't understand the name of the epoxy you use. I looked through the comments and didn't find it. I would like to repair a headstone for an ancestor.

OUTSTANDING VIDEO.

GOD bless you Sir for the good work you are doing

i had to walk away for twenty minutes. Thank goodness I didn't miss anything.

you are doing a very good on redoing the Headstone

Interesting but he never stops talking 😅

Speaking, speaking, speaking... unbelievable how much you can speak. And to the end of video you didn't clean a monument properly.

Nice thing about your video, you can get up and walk away for 10 or so minutes, come back, and you're still talking about what kind of brush to use....

Watched my first video of you. Immediately I thought you were a professor teaching a class.

Your Videos are quite entertaining...But, think about using fast forward when you're doing the menial tasks that you do.

It freakin went the speed of sound 😮😮😮😮

Why?

Very disappointed that the keyway wasn’t leveled.

ALSO It seems like it would be better to clean BOTH sides while the upper portion is on the foam pad. Then, if he gets it a little dirty putting it in place, he can deal with that MINOR and RECENT dirt with minimal pressure anywhere. He already sort of cleaned both sides anyway so it wasn't a case of keeping it dry, but it seems he just didn't want to take the time to do it right then. QUESTION Would he have done everything the same and as quickly if it was his close relative (Dad, Mom, Son, Daughter, Grand Parents)?

Watching this guy "work" is making my stomach turn. I used to work with a man whose motto was "Just slap it together and let's get the hell out." It's really difficult watching him throw this together. what were the 2 items that he threw around the base, for instance? I'm writing this while he is throwing this together so I don't have to watch him. Ugh!!!

Denture Cleaner, Dawn Soap, or just plain old water and light brush. No scrubbing, No chemicals.

Good Concept- First- The buried facet of the headstone is full of Dirt and Debris. You need to clean it off, and the dirt and impurities need to be removed. Limestone is porous, so using water and dawn soap is going to have to be the a little at a time, so you can clean both adhering surfaces. Otherwise, the dirt and debris that has the living material in it will grow inside the adhered surfaces. Though not an ideal way to clean it, laying the stone on a sheet, and pouring water over it, as you lightly use a toothbrush to get the dirt and organisms off of the stone, and then letting it air dry, you have two good bond points, for the adhesive. Even then, you need to use a reinforcement technique, because the adhered points are only as good as the lifetime of the adhesive used. Moving the base stone. Always use a assistant to move the base stones, because you run the risk of damaging the stone further, and safety reasons. You only get 1 chance with the restoration, so unless you want to recast a new base stone (Which is always an option, but one of last resort) You want to treat the movement of these old stones like you would a kitten. They really are that fragile. Your worst problem with Limestone is that it deteriorates when buried, because of the living organisms in the dirt, the saturation of water in the earth, and the wear and tear of the stone due to age and elements. Leveling of the base stone. Always level out the base stone, and make sure that it is refitted on a solid base. If it is not. anything you do to try to restore your gravestone is wasted, because it will just sink, or shift within a couple of weeks.... Just an add experience, not trying to detract from the work.

Do you know I do to you if I found you doing this to my people you be going to jsil as fast as can call the police!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you are sick in the head??????????????????????

The term graveyard is used when the burials are on church grounds. If there is no church, it is a cemetery.

Looks so fun!

Legendary

Great tutorial. Thank you so much!

That's never going to last

Can we use only sand?

Pulsed laser would be the best method to clean monuments as they it's a non-destructive cleaning method.

I'm looking forward to seeing some plain/simple stones restored. There are several small family plots on farms in our area that need TLC. Their fractures show more plainly since there is nothing to distract the eye. They tend to be local stone more than marble.

Wonder if the "natives" of the past were as rotund as they seem to be in the present?

Yeah those Sioux type Niijiwag would use those dug-out canoes, slow, but hearty , they would sink them because the lower oxygenated content of the lakes, would preserve them, you just fill them with rocks, and go get it after the thaw, which our Ojibwe canoes, which were much larger, lighter, and faster, couldn't do, as birth bark doesn't last in that way. Amazing; now give it back to the tribe please, be respectful of those whose ancestors built this piece of history. Miigwech'

Thanks for sharing your knowledge , very helpful

Yes, i use road base rock...

I live in Louisville, KY. I met Michael Laughing Fox last week at the Crazy Horse Museum in South Dakota.

Thanks for taking time. Tutorial great about equipment. Great because then we can see words in action. Action first would be harder to get a grasp of as to content. People frustrated with the prep talk lenght should close mouth and open ears. This is a very important personal subject dealing with loved ones. Great job.

What chemical do you think se to clean headstones, as would love to clean my stepdads headstome

Thank you for BIRD SAFE glass.

So exciting!

It is absolutely astounding to locate these ancient canoes, bring them up, and preserve them. Well done UW.

RIP Jim
