They say it takes 70 years after you die for you to be forgotten. There is an old cemetery by my house that I often visit. There are many children that died in the early 1900s that no one visits. I clean their graves and bring them flowers and toys

[@dscobellusa]

I think as long as somebody knows of them, remembers them and treasure their picture or personal belongings, they still live because they are not a nameless, faceless, forgotten soul.

[@WatcherintheDark69]

They say you die 2 deaths; when you die, and when you are forgotten. You are a wonderful human being for cleaning and caring for those children's graves.

[@caitlinkeating4378]

I visited this cemetery one night, years ago under a full moon. I remember seeing a teddy bear that had been placed at one of the children's graves, and being very moved by that. All these children buried in the ground in the middle of the woods, forgotten by time, and yet someone had thought to bring a toy to one of the graves. Perhaps it was you, or maybe it was someone else, but I thought it was really beautiful.

[@lightyagami3492]

That's so sweet of you to do 😢😢🙏🙏

Been there before. If you are fine tuned with your 6th sense, you can feel all the spirits there. They run into the woods away from you. They are afraid. It’s not creepy, it’s just populated. The energy there is not bad, it is very sad though. I would recommend checking it out, paying respects, and not provoking them. When I went, there were children’s hand prints on the back of our car. The scary part is that there was always someone inside the car at all times. I would be happy to show the pic if anyone is interested. Very creepy. Remember to be ware, not all spirits are friendly. DO NOT provoke them. God bless.

[@SueGirling68]

Hi, at the 4:48 part the tombstone reads Cumbernauld, it's a town in North Lanarkshire in the UK. The tombstone at 11:35 reads - Mary wife of James Chambers born March 26 184?? died Feb 8th 1882. Thanks for yet another awesome video, safe travels. x

[@annetteturner5954]

Hello DNA cousins in UK, Scoctland ,Wales, England, Ireland.

[@johnnevius832]

So many children, must have been sad to live in those times. God bless them.

[@lesliejelliff2746]

I was thinking the same thing..sad

[@2Feet2Worlds]

Just a heads up, many of the stones read "Wm." which is a shortening of William. Another said "Jas." which is a shortening of James. Many older tombstones have this so they would have room to write the rest. Great videos as always!

[@lightyagami3492]

Yep i was looking to see if anybody mentioned this.

[@mela7864]

Great Video as always. The tombstone that looked like a tree was a "Woodmen of the World". They were made from about 1880 to 1920's.

[@MillerMeteor74]

That was my guess.

[@dbeard451]

Great video! You are so respectfull of the historic deceased souls that have come before us. Much praise to you sir! Keep up the fantastic content! God bless.

[@maryrosaryawood7852]

Thanks for sharing this video of the Fallbrook cemetery Wondering Woodsman. It's a pleasure. God bless 😇 and until the next adventure.

[@bread_durst]

As someone who grew up in the area, it's extremely satisfying to see someone explore the old abandoned (rumor has it haunted, as well) Fallbrook cemetery. I was not expecting to see such a recent video walkthrough when I looked it up, considering a few years back I had heard they blocked it all off due to all the heavy vandalism... Such a shame.

[@reneereb6499]

The stone that looks like a tree stump if characteristic of an organization called the Woodsman of the World. It was a "Moose Lodge" type of group that also had life insurance benefits. The offered burial stones to their members. I have started a photo collection each time I find one. Some are very elaborate.

[@heyoldman2003]

Renee Rebmann yes they are . Unbelievable detail.. a very good send off !

[@antonioprado5384]

in my town in matamoros mexico, on the old cemetery, there are many of those graves, Sorry for my english haha :(

[@cosmoseer1834]

There was a Moose Lodge in town where I grew up. A thing of the past

[@maryrosaryawood7852]

Good day Wondering Woodsman. Becareful and keep safe. God bless 😇 you.

[@janecharlton6780]

Glad you found this cemetery, beautiful spot to rest for eternity.

[@2831eel]

Love the cemetery tours. I go to them whenever I can too. Thanks for yet another great video!!

[@maryrosaryawood7852]

God bless 😇 all their souls and may their souls rest in PEACE IN GOD'S HANDS, AMEN.

[@breadandcircus1]

Amen

[@heyoldman2003]

AMEN !

[@chrisohare3452]

Beautifully put x

[@Goldarr1900]

God will never forget you.

[@joshtemple9053]

@The Wandering Woodsman Always bring a small bright LED flashlight when reading old stones. Cast the light flat across the stone and the lettering pops right out.

[@leeheisley7487]

You are spot on about kids doing damage and drinking parties. I was glad to see no liter. My grandpa worked in the mines to put his brother CARL LINDQUIST THROUGH school in Mansfield, he was pitcher for Boston red Sox. Then gramps, went in the ww2. He was quite a man. Great video

[@dianestephenson]

I love old cemeteries. Thanks for sharing this one.

[@sergiosilva3164]

Deus ti abençoe sempre Diane!

[@sandraplonka5225]

Thank you Cliff for visiting I truly enjoy. Great history.

[@nateshon3eastbroadtoprailr448]

People have no respect for anyone else's property anymore. ;-(

[@WatcherintheDark69]

I liken it to people attacking someone who can't defend themselves, because it's basically what it is.

[@dscobellusa]

It's a beautiful place and video, despite the apparent vandalism. I'm certain those poor souls were glad to be laid to rest in such a beautiful resting spot. It was probably much nicer than where they lived and worked. Lots of miners in my family. Perhaps one of them is buried there. Thank you so much for the video.

[@beach3girl459]

Finally, a post from the East Coast. Refreshing to see the lush green as compared to the stark beauty of the West. Back in the 1960's my parents and I explored old cemeteries in GA. People didn't live as long back then. Interesting.

[@heyoldman2003]

I started a headstone company years ago and have seen many of cemetery’s.. the fences are to keep cows, deer , ect from pooping on the stones 😮. Also when I see those really old dates .. what do it look like in 1880’s ? And how did they deliver and set the stones up ?? No gas engines, no “ cherry pickers” . Just brute strength and block n tackle.. horse n buggy Could you imagine hauling one of those big stones.. and the base on a old buck board ?? Crazy .. hard ass labor .. great show 👍🏼👍🏼

[@NickandRachel]

Love you're channel thanks for inspiring me to make my own videos! Those abandoned cemeteries are pretty awesome! Might do one near me pretty soon. Not sure about everybody else but I like hearing their names.

[@hikerman9691]

Both of you have great content! I like hearing their names as well.

[@joebrackett1146]

Yeah I would have to agree!

[@marlyn8864]

I enjoy both channels as well.

[@NickandRachel]

@@marlyn8864 Thank You!

[@juliejulie1545]

Thank you for going up there. The place is under DCNR agency. Yes, it is too sad about the vandalism and not being cared for. Love your videos!

[@karendworschack756]

Hi Cliff! Thanks for sharing! Probably was a nice cemetery when kept up! I was surprised to actually see color on that one grave. Someone's coming to visit! 👍

[@jules3752]

Thanks, enjoy old cemeteries

[@chrisiiams4303]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful video I wonder does any family know they have relatives up there

[@sugarandpennythepooh1211]

Thanks for the tour. I like looking at old tombstones too. 😊 Joanne

[@marleneestabrook1999]

that was a huge cemetery it is always sad to see when children die i always wonder if it's due to an epidemic until next time

[@marysalmon2367]

love the respect and appreciation that you show.

[@timhimes3649]

I’m surprised there are no family in the area to take care of the cemetery. I love seeing all the places you explore.

[@NolaGB]

Such a sad shame when cemeteries are neglected.

[@maryannanaya905]

I watch Sidestep Adventures from Georgia and they go to the abandoned old cemetery’s very interesting many from civil war.

[@karenpacker8862]

We went to the Catskills Mt. In NY state and seen many small family cemetaries. I thought the same who will remember these families?

[@dscobellusa]

Who will remember them??? Family genealogists like me. When I retire, I want to visit a lot of the graves of my ancestors and make sure they are in good repair. That should be fairly soon. Last year my hubby and I went to Maine and found his 1st and 2nd greats in a cemetery there. My hubby is only mildly interested in the family history, but actually seeing the graves family, which he knew well by name because of stories passed down in the family, really made an impact on him. Every person still lives as long as you know and remember them.

[@MyChannel-rf8ic]

Thanks for taking the time to record and upload this. Gone but not forgotten. Brings on such mixed emotions -- sad yet uplifting.

[@dianestephenson]

The stone you thought didn't have a name, that actually said "DIED" before the date.

[@BUHNANUHBREAD]

Wm. Is the abbreviation for William. Jas. Is the abbreviation for James.

[@JamesRobertSmith]

Gone AND forgotten! Abandoned cemeteries have to be the ultimate cure for hubris.

[@s.t.7169]

"Write upon my stone, my body lies but still I roam, yeah yeah! ........wherever I may wander..........."

[@privatedata665]

Good vid . This is in my area . There are cemeteries on Armenia Mt that are older than this one . At the Troy side of Fallbrook , there are several old cemeteries of which one has many field stones as markers

[@heden1460]

Wm is an abbreviation for William.

[@coltonhousel5090]

Hey man I live up in Tioga county ever heard of landrus it's the first electric coal mine and is now abandoned it's really cool to wander around there. At 6:37 in the video that says died buddy lol

[@musicinme023]

Landrus is really cool! Definitely worth the drive it takes to get their imo. The trails are really pretty

[@garyjohnson4608]

People who vandalize cemeteries would sell their own mother if they thought could get rich by doing so

[@mtgcardzandreview2756]

The tombstone shown at 7:45 is for a woodsmen of the world.

[@BigPete7407]

Nicely done WW.

[@j2themac778]

Nice video. I enjoy videos of older "forgotten" cemeteries. I like how you read the names of some of the folks buried there so we can wonder about who they were etc. In a way brings them back for they are thought about even if briefly. Overall cemetery is in decent shape not way overgrown .

[@lindamccaughey8800]

Thanks for the look thru. Could be affected by storms and land slippage. Would be very sad if it was done by people

[@johnkelsey2482]

Very Good... I believe that WM stands for William....

[@beckyb.4592]

Sometimes there’s writing on both sides of older tombstones so maybe you should look at both sides. I love these old cemeteries because these are that helped build our country and they each had a life and family and a lot of history. I would much rather be traveling dirt roads any day. And love old abandoned homes and buildings. Thanks for another great video! 🥰✌🏼

[@poptrt]

Enjoyed your video!! Kinda inspired me actually. I am a lover of abanonded places, especially cemetaries. Just fascinating to me. Would have been neat if you gave point of reference for getting to it, you mentioned you had to ask directions. The GPS coordinates show the road leading into it, but wasn't sure if its accurate on Google Maps. I want to go there this spring a start documenting the stones. Thank you again for the great tour and the video!! Good to see where I'm heading to.

[@terryanderson5947]

Another great video bub

[@jerrysullivan4636]

Cliff, you could find more info about most of the headstones through findagrave. Great work you're doing!!

[@susanneberglund3723]

Petronella and Peter Pehrson was from Sweden. The first swedish grave I have seen in your films. That was fun 😊

[@Emmenie]

Start looking on both sides of the stones!

[@terrynichols7199]

One would think a local genealogy society would be involved with these cemeteries along with upkeep. I think it is terrible that these graves are hidden by the vegetation out of control.

[@leeheisley7487]

New here. Loving your videos. I'm from Morris run pa. I know all the places around there. Fallbrook falls too. 😁

[@richnittinger6671]

Lotsa odd sruff in Fallbrook and surrounding area. Heard some stories. Women screaming,babies,crying,enraged men screaming. Finally ppl getting feet and legs grabbed while sitting or walking in there

[@breadandcircus1]

Only monsters in human shape can enjoy themselves vandalizing graves. This desecration is simply heartless, diabolical. The resting final place of a person. What a cowards those demons are !

[@MillerMeteor74]

At 4:35- maybe Cumbernauk? Or Cumbernault? 5:35- Pettronilla. 6:07 - The Earl Bolt family. 6:50 - the name might have been on the top of the stone. You'd have to look straight down at it. The age looked like 70 years to me. 7:48- It looked like 1880. 11:32 - Mary I. Great find. I always enjoy your cemetery videos.

[@ianwilkinson5069]

Enjoy your videos. Wm. is abbreviation for William.

[@robertsbecky6310]

If you are interested in seeing old graveyards, PLEASE READ THIS. So many old graves are losing the ability to read what is / was on the gravestone. It would be really great if we could come together to have small plaques made for each of them in order to help identify whose grave it is. I think whoever owns / manages the grave should have records on who is in each grave. I am sure some graves may be so old that there is no way to find out. However it would help preserve the info we can read and or find out about each grave, for future generations. I have no idea on the cost it would take to have a small plaque made. However if we came together as a community, I am sure donations and fundraisers could help cover the cost. Maybe starting with the older graves and posting info on where families could have plaques made for their loved ones, whom they visit. It's only a good idea if many people help to come together to make it happen. I am disabled and low income. However it is heartbreaking to see videos of older graves that are in such bad shape that they are falling apart and or hard to read.

Whaaats Up WW the one head stone of the young lady she was from Cumbernauld,Scotland born 1835 , pretty cool cuz I've been doing my family on Ancestry and some of my Kin come from West Lothian Scotland near Edinburgh anywhoo cool place and no it's not morbid or weird to go to cemeteries reading headstone it's pay respect to remember people cuz some of them haven't been visited or read in decades Take Care FOLK Indeed 👌 Laters Brother

[@nateshon3eastbroadtoprailr448]

here's to hoping nobody is coming the other way!

[@didgitt1]

WM. Short for William.

[@thomashazard525]

"Wm." is short for William.

[@ethanfrey1543]

A lot of the people buried in this cemetery are kids. One time I was in the cemetery and I was looking at a little boy’s headstone. If I remember right, he was around 5 years old. A minute or so went by, and I get shoved away from the headstone. As I was running back to my dads truck I swear to god I heard a little boy laughing.

[@OOO_BARRACUDAAA]

Just got home from visiting Fallbrook Cemetary. I thought it was so odd.. there are brand new stuffed animals/beanie babies without a speck of dirt on them on top of a couple select tombstones. Just has me wondering!

[@OOO_BARRACUDAAA]

The stone that looks like a tree stump had a teddy bear by it. Any picture I took of those two stone were blurred. All other photos were clear! Such an interesting little spot.

[@maryrosaryawood7852]

OMG, why'd they leave that place abandoned and , not taken care of.

[@olivei2484]

WM. i believe is William

[@lindaconley9969]

WM. Is usually short for William.

[@raynonabohrer5624]

You need to read the names. On all of them. Carry a flashlight a broom And a brush. And you probably need help to go with you. They can't be forgotten if their names are read. Take pictures!

[@deewhitney9298]

Wish I had known you were in Tioga county. I would have asked you to help me look for the GRIFFIN CEMETERY. I know approximately where it's suppose to be

The one that looks like a stump is a wood men of the world gravestone

It would be nice if someone would care for this place at least weedeat this place

[@mylovedwildanimals8520]

To desecrate a grave is a cowardly act, indeed a diabolical one. The people who find "joy" doing that, have a special place in Hell. May God bless the souls of the people who lay there in that cemetery. Great video, sir
