Jeff and Sarah, I want your narrator to narrate my life’s history at my funeral.

[@MusicOfTomRoush]

Your videos are truly an inspiration to learn more about American history. Great job!!!

[@junedominguez2549]

I absolutely loved this video! Not only do you try to find truth in the mistakes and lies people do to make themselves look good in historical facts but, to make others not hear the real truth is a travesty to me. I am finding out as I go on in life there is no way to believe so many any more on FACTS! Thank you for sharing and checking things out first! I love it!

[@robroiboi]

ALL of your videos are great; this one perhaps the most informative. Thanks

[@halhunter1974]

Jeff, another excellent presentation. The drone shots really made this video !

[@tinakelley7018]

Watching the show this morning Wagon Train they were going the trail the Donner Party went through. I would not have know who the Donner Family was if it wasn't for watching your video months ago. So today Saturday I'm going to go back and watch them to refresh my memory. Thanks for my history lesson.

[@courtneyhall7140]

great video jeff and sarah.allof your videos are so informative.

[@Orchid89706]

The "mistake" that you pointed out on

[@stevemccoy8138]

It's a miracle that anyone in the Donner Party servived.

[@emilygee1248]

I love your videos! I have a weird obsession with the Donner Reed Party History lately so I appreciate these awesome videos!

[@MarcoMoreno5757]

Thank you for sharing these beautiful stories.

[@stargater2892]

The Donner Party is so sad, and should never be forgotten.

[@marklawson8346]

Another great video Jeff and Sarah keep them coming 👍🏻

[@allenheaps2084]

Hi History Hunters. Thank you for shedding light on where the fight between Reed and Snyder took place. I have often wondered where it happened and wanted to visit the location some day. Now with the help of your video I now know where to go and that will be on my list of places to visit in the summer of 2020. Great job of telling history!!!

[@victorcontreras9138]

Another great video on the Donner trek. So informative will have to see it again to refresh myself with the facts.

[@dennisrogers5106]

Great video. If you had hiked behind Rattle Snake mountain you would of found a short fenced off section of the immigrant trail. Its untouched and preserved for whatever reason. Thanks for all you do.

[@lindalucas3757]

Such a sad ordeal for the people involved in the Donner Party

[@helenpomerleau6455]

I'm a direct descendant of Lavina Murphy, and the town of Marysville was found by the husbands of her daughters Mary and Sarah and one of her surviving son was District Attorney of Yuba Co

[@johnhalley974]

Really enjoy these slices of American history that are not known about....Especially from this side of the pond...Thankyou

[@marcieconant5559]

Interesting to see Donner Party Park today and photos of how it looked back in the day. What a contrast! It's sad that they feasted on the dead bodies but I put myself in their place if I'm starving. How badly do I want to survive? Thank you for a good presentation.💕
