Exploring Famous Graves of Angelus-Rosedale Cemetery, Part 1

[@Cyberlucy]

Just beautiful. I am very happy that with Los Angeles are cemeteries you are not just doing actors but all kinds of historical figures. The stories of each person are very well written.

[@graveexplorations]

Thank you for watching and your very kind words!

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Hi Matt, you really out did yourself with this one. I've been there many times, but never noticed many of these graves or knew their stories. You have such a wonderful eye for detail and always tell such moving stories. Can hardly wait for part 2!

[@graveexplorations]

Thank you Steve! It's really an amazing place, I've been coming here for the last 3 years and it feels good to start sharing the stories. I've been so wrapped up in this project over the last couple months, I didn't realize you have a new channel name. As soon as I finish this series I plan to do nothing else but catch up on all the content I've missed from you, Rhetty and a few others. Great hearing from you! :)

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

@@graveexplorations I'm so impressed with the amount of time you spend researching, editing and creating your awesome documentaries. I know how much time it takes just to do my short vlogs, which can be exhausting, but nothing compared to the scale of what you are doing. Nice to hear from you, too!

[@RhettyforHistory]

Excellent work my friend! Your research is outstanding and I love how you bring these people and their stories back to life. It's nice to know there are others that recognize people who were worthwhile and help change things for the better like Severance. The I voted stickers are a strong testament to her reform work. I have always seen the name Freemont in some places out west and never knew why. It's interesting how Mr. Freemont's freeing of slaves was not well accepted by the union. My favorite character of this episode was Goodfellow. It's sad that he has no specific spot and yet was a indirectly a part of one of West's biggest shootouts. He certainly was intelligent and seemed to have many interests in paving his own path while making a difference. Thank you for your research and time that went into making this episode. I really enjoyed it.

[@graveexplorations]

Thank you my friend! I thought I'd get through this cemetery pretty fast, but the more research I did, the more fascinating people turned up. There are so many more to go. I'm very glad you enjoyed it. The first thing I'm going to do when it's all done is head over to RhettyforFun and catch up on your fantastic work. Thanks as always for your support and friendship! :)

[@RhettyforHistory]

@@graveexplorations I'm not sure how you find all this information but I may need some lessons! Especially when you're doing some of the lesser known people in the cemeteries.

[@jparker59able]

I'm a little late seeing this as I've only recently discovered your channel. I've wanted to visit this cemetery for some time after seeing it in the film Dead Ringer with Bette Davis. I live in L.A. now about 3 miles away so it's on my list. So many stories and people who made a small mark in history even if they didn't get into the history books. Strangely the most interesting story in this video is Abel Crawford. Your narration and old photos really add to the quality of your videos without all the extra frills and nonsense. So glad to have found your channel. Keep them coming.

[@Couldnteventhink]

I'm so glad I found these videos. Informative and inspiring!

[@karolapokladnik356]

Great research on all the graves and people!

[@johnallen2771]

These shows are so well produced and researched. It is truly fascinating to look at what has come before us. So much of this is not taught in our schools. Why is that? The old quote that says "those who do not remember the past are doomed to repeat it" is an apt description. People don't remember that there was a time when the only people who voted were white men. No blacks, no Indians, no women could vote. I think history, all the way back to the beginning, is something that should be given greater emphasis. It's all been done before us. We are not the first.

Now the origin of Glassell Street in Orange comes to light. Doing a series on early Californians for which streets are named would be fun.

[@terrymyers699]

They are also related to the Pattons, ie; Gen. George A. Patton. Their family plot is at San Gabriel Cemetery. But George is buried w/ his men in Luxembourg.

[@graveexplorations]

Yes, that is right. I believe Andrew and William Glassell were Gen. Patton's great-uncles. Thank you for watching and commenting :)

William T. Glassell has his name on the Confederate founders monument at the Santa Ana cemetery. It records him as the founder of Orange, California, in addition to his service as a Commander in the Confederate States Navy.

Thank you, the next video will have the MOH winners. That one will be coming out in March.

[@terrymyers699]

@@graveexplorations Fantastic, can't wait. A quick note when referring to those that have the MOH.. They are Recipients of the Medal, not winners. The circumstances for which they earned the Medal came at great sacrifices, not a contest or fame to be won. I'm not bagging on you as this is a common misconception. While on the same subject id like to see you do a video blog on the MOHs in Los Angeles. There are roughly 50 in LA County; 14 at LANC, 5 at HFC, 5 at Odd Fellows, 6 at Calvary, 5 at Evergreen, 5 at ARC, 4 at FLG, 1 at FLHH, 1 at Woodlawn... And a couple more that I haven't visited yet. Or, if not exclusively them, military heroes. Like one of the Iwo Jima flag raisers at HFC. Just an idea..

[@graveexplorations]

@@terrymyers699 You're so right! Thank you for pointing it out. In fact, the MOH segment is already done. I will double check to make sure. I believe that I tend toward saying the medal was "awarded," or "earned." But sometimes, to avoid repetition it might've slipped in. But I will make sure to check the terminology.
