It is good to see history and cemetaries restored. If you don't know where you came from you won't know where you're going. Thanx GV God bless❤😊

[@donnicholas7552]

Nice to see they're cleaning up that old graveyard. Interesting history.

[@annlindsaywright3169]

Small places can be so much more interesting and the discoveries can be beautiful. Please continue what you do it is very much appreciated.

Thank you for remembering them😢

[@tinasteer2507]

I can’t leave this video without saying Thank You. Especially when you show photos of the people concerned so we can get a better perspective on what your telling us.

[@mterrylane819]

great work on finding so much of historical interest, behind this video , absolutely priceless, riveting stuff for those of us watching at home. i spent many hours doing this in my time , and a great deal more time rolling film in various record offices, and family history centers, helping others find their loved ones, it was a great experience, and can tell many a tale, but you can't beat the sheer exitement of field work, recording it as you do is of immense value to many many folks, and yes indeed I Have found names who my well have connection to my own family names, as i've watched your video's

[@brendacanter9768]

Glad they are cleaning it up. That vault has to have more than one person in it.❤️

[@tomsdotter3228]

I had to rewatch this, there's so much to see! Isn't it great that it's being restored!Thank you for researching the people and places for us. x

[@ReggieWarrhol]

You are very right, these places tell stories of the souls that once lived and the history of an area. It is fantastic to see a clean up happening and attempts to protect monuments. Thank you for sharing this.

[@cathymcglasson6947]

What an awesome place

Super history

[@maureenalder8905]

Great history again GV..Big shout out to the volunteers who are keeping this beautiful graveyard tidy 👏 😘

[@carondean2960]

Lovely little graveyard steeped in history and well looked after . The little round thing is a bug hotel for insects to live during the winter , I have a square one on my fence. Great video , not a lot of men would get on with their mother in law so I don't know how to take the fact he built a resting place for her 😂 xx

[@GraveVisitations]

He was a good man lol I thought the same the mother in law from hell

Oh my gosh GV this was awesome. As always thank you for not just telling us the story of this poor woman 20 children I cannot imagine. We have 4 children and that was a challenge. Thank you for the history lesson. As usually what an amazing job

[@GraveVisitations]

Glad you enjoyed it Terri 👍

[@michaelbedinger4121]

I am glad that this place is being restored. Twenty children!? Good Lord, that lady deserved a monument all her own! Thank you very much GV, this was a very interesting video. Take care. 😊

[@GraveVisitations]

I agree with you but she wasn't mentioned which is very strange

[@Liz_678]

So glad they are trying to preserve this history!! 1600s !20 children😳. Thanks for the great tour and history GV💕

Amazing information and what a tour through history. Thank you thank you!

[@christenedoering7720]

Its fantastic this place is being looked after its history needs te preserved.

[@CatCmdr]

That had some unique and very old ones. My youngest is back East in Virginia. She sent pics of my parents’ and GreatGrandfather’s tombstones at Arlington. They’ve put a couple of people between my Parents and my Dad’s Grandfather!! Snuck unrelated in because they’ve run out of space. That was weird to see. Things change. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Thanks for that video! ❤❤❤❤

[@kategulick4781]

I have never seen time of death on a headstone. Now I'm thinking of having the time that I was born and died put on mine😂 It's nice to see that they are trying to clean it up and preserve as much as they can.

[@annlindsaywright3169]

Lovely little interesting place GV, thank you so very much for showing me round.

Hello GV, thank you for this video of the lovely little grave yard. Its great to see that this one is being restored. Interestingly my late Aunt Eileen, her maiden name was Cuffe. and she was born in Ireland. The little wooden post that you asked about is for Bee's, wasp's and insects, I have one in my garden. All my best wishes to you .

[@GraveVisitations]

Hi Barry that's great you can connect to the name cuffe. Thank you for watching again

[@barry_uk]

@@GraveVisitations Always a pleasure my friend.

[@tinasteer2507]

15:22. We make these to accommodate bees mainly wild bees. There is a difference between insects and bee shelters. Made me wonder if this one was left by the volunteers or a beekeeper was buried here.

[@GraveVisitations]

Bee keep definitely not buried here

[@cherylh3091]

Very cool to see such old graves. 20 children! Yikes. I have 4 & that is hard enough. Oh, and I very much appreciate history lessons that you provide. I’m more familiar with the history here in America.

[@helenwedekind6966]

Amazing to see all the Crawfords, my maiden name. That was heartwarming ❤😊 There was a Richie Gaul in your video prior, my Mother’s maiden name. Love your videos, so much history and White House too.

[@GraveVisitations]

Wonderful! You found the family names thank you for watching 🙏

[@edwardmccrindle7252]

[@helencheadle5285]

Hi GV….what a lovely little graveyard! Packed with so much interesting items and History! Great they are cleaning it up,looks like they are very last minute regarding saving the old inscriptions!! 1700’s! Gosh! That tin with the holes, is, as someone else mentioned a “Bee Box”. I have one in my garden and the solitary leaf cutter bees lay their eggs, leave food, then cut half moon shapes out of leaves ( in my case tree fuchsia plant leaves!) which they roll up and seal the hole with. Some other insects may use, but in my case it’s that bee just mentioned, who sadly goes off and dies so the next generation hatches the next year etc! Fascinating to learn about, and with all bee species in decline, great that someone has put a box there for them! Loving the places you’ve found to visit and take us to GV really been enjoying them all, and your camera work is excellent…good steady hand, so we don’t get dizzy, and best of all you give us time to view and read grave stone inscriptions with you! Much appreciated! Thankyou and Sue for all you do for us! We really do appreciate it! Love and Light! Godbless! Love Helen 🙋‍♀️🥰💐💕🦋🦋🦋👏🏻👏🏻xxxx

[@GraveVisitations]

Thanks Helen it really is a beautiful old graveyard. It is as you say very important to read the inscriptions and you the viewer to be able to also. Take care and God bless ❤️🙏

[@dm607]

That mausoleum seems huge for 1 person GV, he must have really admired his mother in law, (or was pushed by his mrs,lol). The only Martha Cuff I found outlived her husband by over 40 years and is buried in Dublin. She might be your missing wife! Loved the father and son tomb, and all the old masonry carvings. Hope the restoration continues, it will look amazing when finished. Thank you for another great adventure. Deb of Oz XXX

[@joelhurley2678]

Great video on the nice little small Cemetery with the old church. Hopefully they will use that as teaching method that only about the church and the grounds but about the Cromwell 1649 debauchery of all the churches that were catholic. This way they'll be able to teach people with that gentleman you talked about who died at Christmas Day 1659 and people can learn some history of your area and during cromwell's burning and pillaging.

[@johncarroll9986]

That little piece of timber on a stake is actually a Bug sanctuary

Hi G V fantastic little graveyard. John Otway O'Connor Cuffe... The Family motto that goes with the Coat Of Arms is " Animus Tamen Idem" or " But The Mind Is The Same" The Crest is a white background with a black diagonal zigzag charge with 3 Fleur De Lis with 2 blue diagonal lines with 3 gold dots on each blue charge. Cuffe comes from Old English as to a maker of gloves. Thanks for the visit GV.

Think the thing toy thought was a bird feeder is a bee/ bug house seen them here in Australia, not sure the bugs use it them lol ,amazing to see these really old graves

[@marilynmills2273]

The wooden thing is a ‘ bug hotel’ insects crawl inside the holes to hibernate etc it creates a safe environment for them

[@yada-yadadragon1947]

The little log on a post, 15:15 with a roof and holes, is a home for bugs.

The little thing with holes, bees, wasps, definitely insects of some sorts or all sorts .. to spend the winter in 😊

Great idea!

The holes in it remind me of carpenter bee damage

That's a bug house that strange object my son was bought one for his birthday it's for bees to put their eggs in. 20 children crikey one is enough for me 😮

Not a bird feeder, but a home for bumblebees 😊

20 children? I can’t believe this woman didn’t suffer a prolapsed uterus at the very least! It’s so strange to me, how some women can die, trying to carry their first pregnancy, but some women can give birth to over 10 children and still live.
