The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.

I was in a major wreck in 2009, and my dreams of a vacation touring all these old cemeteries will now never be. I enjoy the work you do Ron. Giving me a chance to go where I will never be able to.

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

Glad we can make it better and have you come along thanks

[@MeMe-nw9mq]

@Debbie Clark…I understand exactly how you feel. I have developed a health condition called Essential Tremor. It’s very similar to Parkinson’s with tremors, balance issues, slowed reflexes. It is a progressive disease and will get worse as I get older. I have been ordered by my neurologist that I can no longer drive. It has severely impeded my independence and ability to just hop in my car and go anywhere I want. It’s been a huge adjustment and I absolutely detest having to be dependent on others to go anywhere. Ron’s videos are a real treat. I’m so happy to get to go along on his adventures this way.

[@bobbieg3904]

@@MeMe-nw9mq my MIL suffers from the same. She went through the surgery to have the probes inserted into her brain with battery packs on both sides of her chest to control the tremors. So far she's still independent and can drive. She'll be 77 this year.

[@lisab301]

@@bobbieg3904 My grandfathers suffered from Essential Tremor most of his life. The surgery was pretty new at the time but it changed his life. I believe its called deep brain stimulation and it works by implanting fine wires (electrodes) into a specific portion of the brain. The electrode is then connected via a wires to a battery his the chest. He can switch it on and off with a remote which is crazy to watch. The interesting thing is that when he has it turned on his speech can become a bit slurred so he turns it off when he is speaking to someone. Truly amazing what they can do now days. Now I just have to wait until they come up with treatment for my chronic illnesses.

Great one again Ron. I have been to Savanna. A beautiful place with a depth of history but I have never been to the Colonial Park cemetery but I will now be paying it a visit in the future. What a magnificent monument to Nathan Greene. You've definitely got to go back to the Bonaventure cemetery. What a beautiful statue of little Gracie Watson. Bless her heart. Such a young age. Poppet. Rest in peace Gracie. Thanks again Ron for bringing us along with you on these visits. Really enjoy them. Until next time. Take care.

Wow! Awesome! I love beautiful old southern cemeteries. I know who General Greene is! I didn't know he was buried here. My ancestors knew GW. They were the Payne family of Virginia. My ancestor, William Payne knocked GW to the ground over an election dispute. Later on, GW wrote to him inviting him to a tavern. William thought he was going to challenge him to a duel. Interestingly, they became good friends for years to come. In fact, William Payne's son, also named, William Payne was the pallbearer at GW's funeral in December 1799. First Lady, Dolley Madison's maiden name is Payne. Same relation. Anyway, I absolutely LOVE your video's. I look forward to them. Thank you!

Definitely a cemetery of historic proportions. People still die from heatstroke just not as frequently with our rehydration means and other supportive care.

[@virginiamesko6369]

I suffered from sunstroke back in my late 20s. It was horrible! I was desperately I'll. My ears rang incessantly from the amount of aspirin I was given to try to control my body temperature. I had vision problems, was burning up but chilled so hard I thought I would share to death and my jaws would break. I was 3 days under constant professional nursing care and had a headache beyond describing which caused nausea and vomiting. It has permanently messed up my internal thermometer. It is no joke.

[@hollyb.3615]

Yes, several past summers where the heat was intolerable, I read of people dying of sunstroke. Usually engaged in outside activities and it sounded like it snuck up on them. I have always loathed excessive heat and now that I'm older and it is more prevalent, it's a reminder that you have to be careful. It sounds like nothing to fool around with.

You started out at Factors Walk at the waterfront. The reason Savannah was not burned during the Civil War was because of the cotton in the warehouses. General Sherman left General Geary in charge to protect the cotton. At 3:42, the grave of Archibald Bulloch has a county named for him up the road off of I-16. Watch the 1997 movie "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" and that describes Savannah. It's about cemeteries too. I lived in the area 20 years. EAGLEGARDS...

[@lechatbotte.]

George Anderson Mercer (1835-1907) was a Confederate officer and lawyer of Savannah, Ga. Mercer kept his diary intermittently during his time as a student in Savannah, Ga., and New Haven, Conn., at Princeton University, and at the University of Virginia, where he studied law. Included are entries relating to hunting and observations of birds; accounts of his Confederate military experiences in Savannah, 1861-1864, the Atlanta Campaign, 1864, service with Mercer's and Wright's division in Georgia and South Carolina, his capture in Macon, Ga., and return from prison to Savannah, 1864-1865; and his postwar work, social life, family affairs, reading and study, and reactions to current events and ideas. Creator Mercer, George Anderson, 1835-1907. According to this article he was Jonny Mercers father.
