[@deborahmusgrove90]

My hubby and I go to rural cemeteries and photograph there old stones and try to do God in case they are destroyed. TY TY for doing this.

[@denane44]

I just love the history and some of the unusual stones 🥰

[@denane44]

Sounds awesome!!!

[@donaldwells2102]

Your visit to the Fox Cemetery made me want to make a visit also.I have several of my ancestors buried in Sevier County and possibly some in the Fox Cemetery. Appreciate the channel and the work you're doing Robin,have a Good Evening 🙂.

[@denane44]

Aww thank you it is such a beautiful place there!! 🥰

[@JaredKingTV]

Absolutely amazing video! If you ever get to middle Tn let me know I can give you some cemetery locations with Revolutionary war soldier's in a state park! Really amazing. Keep up the great work.

[@denane44]

Thank you so much 🥰. I sure will!

[@onevoice13]

Hello sister! I hope you continue your work. I so do enjoy the remembrance of those who nhave come before us. Very important to show vigilance to these souls who have passed. Thank you dear. I only hope someone will do the same when I become nothing but an old head stone.

[@denane44]

Thank you

[@TennValleyGal]

Thank you, Robin. I enjoyed every minute of your video. Can a video be to long when you're wandering around a old East Tennessee cemetery with that fantastic view?

[@denane44]

Thank you. I’m so worried people will get bored out of their minds lol

[@TennValleyGal]

@@denane44 Is boredom possible in a cemetery? Thanks for finding Ferrells. Mine were from SW Virginia.

[@1Hopeinhim]

I enjoy this but can't read the older inscriptions. If you use a flashlight we can read them on this end. Thanks.

[@denane44]

I keep forgetting to bring my big one but I will start using one. Thank you for the tip 🥰

[@handicappedtraveler]

Nice job and history

[@denane44]

Thank you 🥰

[@ladyhawthorne1]

Great video, I loved it. I've seen another person who does cemetery walk throughs and he carries a small flashlight which can help you see the engravings, even in sunlight. You have to try it from different angles.

[@denane44]

Thank you. I keep forgetting to bring one lol

[@johnpeddicord4932]

Enjoyed, Robyn, it's your channel ,long or short, still will watch, alot of history behind those Tombstone s, too bad townships don't maintain their cemetery s this one OK, it's the old old ones

[@denane44]

Thank you for your support 🥰🥰

WOW is a short form for Woodmen of the World. The Woodmen of the World focuses on providing life insurance, burials, and gravestones for all of its members. A fraternal insurance company is a not-for-profit, member-owned organization offering insurance as a primary benefit to its members.

[@denane44]

Thank you for that info. 🥰

[@wjewell63]

Great video man......

[@denane44]

Thank you🥰

[@emuseu2235]

You need a squirt bottle and a brush perhaps even a flashlight to make out these really old ones,,,,

[@denane44]

That’s a great idea

[@joshuagibson2520]

Sometimes I gotta pinch myself. So lucky to be able to call Tennessee home myself.

[@denane44]

Amen!!🥰

[@theotherconfederrasputin2729]

@4:40, this marker denotes the "WOODMAN OF THE WORLD" of which was of great promince of this time.

[@patrickquesinberryne2p350]

I would like to know the history of Hall Top cemetery. Have you ever seen that one?

[@denane44]

Is that in cocke co?

[@patrickquesinberryne2p350]

I believe so. I don’t know if you’ve ever been there but it has a little plaque up there in front of an old cemetery with just rocks as headstones it’s accessible on a fire service road to the tower site. The GPS coordinates are 35.862997, -83.143784

[@nanaof7preciousgrands115]

Maybe you can help me I went to Pigeon Forge and Sevierville a couple years ago. As you are driving on the main tourist road that leads into Gatlinburg behind one of the strip stores just as you are leaving Pigeon Forge, I found a small cemetery on the right hand side .. the cemetery only had about 10-15 graves but what caught my eye , was what looked like bed graves with headboard and footboards marking the graves. I took a ton of pictures...but on the way home to Michigan, my phone deleted over 3000 pics from my trip including those grave pics...I have never seen graves like that and haven't been able to come back since due to the pandemic and loss of work financially...I would love to see a video on those if you know which ones I am talking about or even know the graveyard. Sad that I lost all those plus all my beautiful pics of the gorgeous cabin we stayed in way up the mountain. Simply stunning area and wish I could come back soon.

[@denane44]

There is a McMahan off the parkway that I can think of but it has more than 15 graves maybe 75-100. Pretty old but I haven’t been there in a long time and I can’t remember any bed looking stones

[@GrandmaFrankie.]

Robin, do you use Find a Grave? My brother got me interested in taking pictures for findagrave. I don’t get to do that much, but my husband and I like to go through cemeteries, especially ones with our relatives. We do a lot of genealogy research too. We like your channel!

[@denane44]

I do soMetimes if I’m trying to find family members. Sometimes it can give you a lot of information

[@lindasingleton1828]

Have you ever did a video on angel hill Dollys family

[@denane44]

No but it’s on the list lol. Thank you for the reminder! 🥰

[@winnie8592]

WOW. Woodmen of the world

[@earlcollinsworth4914]

Just a thought! Take a piece of news print and a large piece of chalk. Place the paper over the stone and rub the paper all over with the chalk . That'll bring out the inscription!

[@denane44]

Oh yeah that’s a good idea too!! Thank you

[@deborahmusgrove90]

D2 is great cleaner for stones and is safe

[@denane44]

I’m actually gonna start cleaning some with that soon 👍🏻

I've been trying to identify a headstone where someone has passed before 1800.

[@denane44]

I tell ya some of those are impossible to read

[@anewman1]

@@denane44 Indeed. And not even a stone rubbing to show it.

[@crescentmoonchild4031]

Have you thought about maybe a spray bottle with water to maybe to see better…or alcohol? I don’t know just thinking

[@denane44]

Yeah that’s not a bad idea 🥰

[@wesleyjohnson2284]

The stone shaped like a tree more than likely means he belonged to modern woodsman of america

[@GrandmaFrankie.]

WOW stands for Woodman of the World

[@denane44]

Well that makes sense now lol
