Historic Bond Graveyard Hidden in the Trees

[@539Productions]

Hey everyone! If you have hit the Notification Bell please let me know in the comments below if you didn't receive notifications for this video! This is helping me and youtube to investigate the issue and get it resolved once and for all!

[@ohmeowzer1]

539 Productions I hit it along time ago ..

[@ramblingrose1540]

539 Productions Hi Matt.. I 'occasionally ' receive notifications about new videos you've made, but receive no notifications about you going live. (Which is why I always miss them unfortunately).. 👎

[@earstoyou2916]

539 Productions Hello friend i have been trying to grab attention to the fact that in order to get ALL notifications not only does one tap the bell once but by quickly giving another tap the bell will look like sound waves( as a pair of parentheses like so ) which gets the upgrade so to speak / all notifications and not just some.

[@dragracer195703]

Have not recieved notifictions in a while.

[@ramblingrose1540]

dragracer195703 I never receive notifications anymore so I just thought Matt had stopped uploading them.... It's a shame as I did enjoy watching them.. (But don't always have the time to go searching for them..)

[@TomMcClean]

I love dandering through old graveyards/cemeteries. They are often home to the most fascinating histories. I have videoed most of the Belfast Northern Ireland city graveyards , even the locked ones. Good job 539

[@Kuulei265]

You get “props” for removing the branches. So sad the infant and children’s graves. We do not realize how fortunate we are with our medical care. People used to die just from simple things like cuts, etc. Children died from diseases there were no immunities from. It’s a reminder to us to use our time here wisely, and to make a difference. Just by caring, and taking time to be kind and polite can make a difference. Makes me wonder if the Cemeteries in general do not have to meet any type of regulations for future “maintenance.”

[@angiebaby1976]

Hell yeah, he does!!! Matt, just because you did that like second nature, not because anyone was watching but because it was just right to do, he has mad manly creds in my book!!! I watch so many of your videos - it feels like I know you. It was so natural I didn't even notice you had done that. I had to back it up & rewatch alot of the video. I think it's fun to walk through random cemeteries. It's very peaceful!! Good job, Matt!!!

[@Mummy323]

I always get notifications when you posts. Another great video. The old graveyards are always so serene and make one contemplate many things

[@janedoe3880]

I went to a cemetary in north india in a place called dharamsala where the brits were buried, old old graves, very facinating, you all would love it, coolest place ever.

[@jenigeddon]

The infant graves just break my heart. Especially those 1 month old twins!

[@lauraodle5816]

Jen H It does make my heart sad. Long gone, and forgotten, only remembered as Matt takes us to these cemeteries by us. 🙁

[@lynnross428]

Agree the death of babies and young children r very sad😫 They never got to enjoy life a

[@jenigeddon]

It’s oh so sad ladies! Just makes me feel so bad! We worry about insignificant things every day and some people never get a life to live!

[@sharonmullins1957]

Me too, brings tears to my eyes. Also, a lot of the wives ages were young - possibly died in childbirth.

[@pearlgirl4524]

Dont abortions kill babies to ?

[@colleencrane4843]

Such a beautiful Cemetery, looks well taken care of and love the History of the Cemetery, meaning Headstone styles.

[@helencheadle5285]

Hi Matt! Helen from the U.K. here...I’m subscribed and DIDNT receive any notification...only just found this by chance ! As always a really great film of this graveyard...your very patient and allow us time to get to read things and look round too...you certainly have a very steady hand! Thank you for allowing us to share with you again. And best wishes for the New Year! Helen 🙋😘🍾🥂

[@539Productions]

Thanks! I was having some notification issues back then, I think they are mostly solved. Are you getting them for recent vids?

[@SueGirling68]

Hi Matt, what a lovely little graveyard. That type of stone you like is granite which is a pretty stone I agree and what they call the spine of Cornwall is literally made out of hard granite. You can pretty much find little granite stones/chippings wherever you go in Cornwall too. I thought it was very sweet of you to move the branches away from the markers too. x

[@debbiehensley6219]

I actually got a notification this time. People just kill me dumping their garbage at a cemetery. That poor little infant with no name is just so very heartbreaking. Thanks for sharing. Be safe.

[@ohmeowzer1]

Hi I have been busy working at the hospital...but I have some days off so I can catch up with my watching your videos , this is a beautiful cemetery...keep up the good work and stay safe

[@robertcombs55]

Love your cite....I used to love to go cemetery hunting....2 old now; so I Love watching you do it!

[@sharonmullins1957]

Your thoughtfulness and reverence is so appreciated. Beautiful old cemetery.

[@sandraplonka5225]

Matt I’m receiving all notifications. Wonderful cemetery very well kept and very interesting. Like how you explain all and take time filming. We go to cemeteries all the time old and new no one every has kicked us out. At least not yet.

[@darlatidwell9995]

I have never heard of the name Actious ever. Unique and rare. What is that kind of stone that's grayish-blue ? Granite? Maybe a matte finish marble? It is probably one of the two. It is pretty. Nice cemetery that seems well taken care of for the most part. See you next time Matt. ✌

[@marylingo5966]

Love the videos. Could you give more dates off the graves, we can’ t see them very well... thanks, peace out ...

[@marisarap5788]

Where is this cemetery ? You could read the names on the stones!

[@dianeburkhart236]

I got such a serene feeling while watching this video.

[@sharonmullins1957]

Me too!

[@roobeeroo5281]

Just got the notification now even tho I had watched the video because it showed up on my recommended list. As always a great video

[@PaleHROse]

What an awesome channel...love cemeteries. Low light, night time is best:)

[@tedrobinson5743]

you know I Appreciate your good work. I'm watching ya on my Cheap poor boy cell. Tried watching your stream maybe you could please put the highlights out for peeps without internet connection I know you're working your ass off & we appreciate it just a thought. thanks for your time well Spent Bud!!!!!!

[@lauraodle5816]

Looking forward to part 2. A beautiful place.

[@johnmiller5678]

Very interesting video well done

[@kaylinhudson4393]

Matt I just love the way you talk. From NC.

[@hollydooley8178]

I get all notifications. Just wish I were able to watch your livestreams at the time you are doing them. I do watch them, though. I love your videos, Matt. Keep up the good work.

[@TheSWolfe]

Luv the dandies & forget-me-nots blanketing the lawn. LOL - stupid spell-check - wanted me to put forget-me-newts, tons, or bots. Granted, I wasn't certain they were forget-me-nots, but I know they were none of those options! It really is a lovely graveyard; even tho those big old trees pose a legitimate risk to headstones below, they certainly add to the overall grandeur & serenity of this plot of land.

[@susan5301]

Another amazing explore Matt! Thanks for sharing!

[@aylaeh]

I love the fact that you walk these cemeteries! I just came across your channel yesterday. I happened to see that you recently posted this video and where this cemetery is located. Something that you might not know about Peru Indiana is that it once was the circus capital of the USA. This is before the circus performers went down to Florida. I grew up not far from Peru. There are many many cemeteries like this around this area. I love the fact that you're very respectful of these gravesites. Keep up the good work!

[@539Productions]

Thanks for the info! I did notice the circus museum, makes sense now!

[@lynnross428]

Have u ever thought of doing a show on tv for what u do? I remember years back of one that did what u do😀 loved it What a great way to remember or learn about the past 😀

[@wasnhas]

It looks like Actious Harper may have died during childbirth, according to ancestry.com. A child was born and died the same day.

[@ginamaria2579]

awesome, beautiful photography .

[@bobbalooie69]

Fascinating!! I love old cemeteries. Wandered through one yesterday.

[@evabell9749]

I love your videos and thank you for sharing them with us! Please wear boots so you don't get bit by a snake!

[@kathykelley8086]

My bell is on and yes, I got notifications

[@zeenaskitchen2095]

Super.Pls stay connected always

[@staciemckenty-assal8949]

Cool little cemetery. The graves are nicely spaced. They are not packed in like sardines.

[@novaworld1297]

Not long fell on your channel fascinating stuff Ty subscribed

[@539Productions]

Thank you!! Glad to have you along on the ride!

[@Pricksgus2012]

Had never seen your videos. I like to study up on different things. Had been doin some reading n watching videos on old Appalachian settlers came across a video on cemetery in Kentucky you did. Absolutely interesting. I’m hooked! You are amazing.

[@jerettashewmaker5021]

I did not receive notification.I did enjoy the video.

[@voiceofanangel1978]

Very interesting. I wonder if the area who occupies to take care of area. Actually have a roster or book of who is buried where. Wonder if there such a thing.

[@brigit2470]

The way those two stones side by side were angled, the rain would just pound and pound on the words.

[@scariestshari]

Hey, I love that you investigate old cemeteries. I like to do that too. BTW the metal markers you find were called "White Bronze". They weren't bronze but it sounds better than "big ass metal tombstones." Check out "Markers of life; ethereal and Earthly StudIes" on Facebook. In the photos are some ads for "White Bronze monuments."

[@jimmyhappysmith204]

Amazing tour. The orange and yellow tiger lilies can be mowed down and they grow right back. Also Penicillin was invented in 1945 and allowed to treat and cure most infections and STD's.

[@cjdfv]

Yep. I know about Penicillin.

[@garbage854]

Good video :) I got notification :)

[@dorothytruitt4751]

my gg grandfather died , his wife married his brother , after she died she was bury by him. and then all 3 where together. Also had another family bury with his 1st wife,

[@ohmeowzer1]

I get notifications ok ...your awesome

[@teresagary7158]

I wonder if a rubbing was done on the headstones would the information the b ledgeable?

[@tammydeatherage2219]

The Frazee Family is related to my family how neat you should cross them. Thank-you!

[@terrallputnam7979]

Weird! My Mom's family owned and operated the Bond Funeral Home in McMinnville, TN. They also owned 2 other Funeral Homes, one in Manchester or Winchester, TN and one in Cookeville, TN. They were William Jennings Bond and Anna Ellen (Little) Bond.

[@LL-sq8se]

My bell is on and I promptly get notifications.🤗

[@539Productions]

Good to hear it! Thanks for letting me know!

[@Grouchomx]

"In case you have to leave quickly" (?) I agree with many people. I have been to dozens of cemeteries and have never been challenged once. Entertaining channel, but wrap your head around that no one cares you are there and no one is following you!

[@appyd02d]

Sorry if I sound irreverent, but I had to laugh when you were speaking about W.P. being a resident or relative of the people interred in the gravestone on which it rested. I grew up in a community which had a couple of old cemeteries. Those cement plinths were used to mark water, potable. 😂🤣🤓 Another nice video, thanks for posting!

[@tammydeatherage2219]

We live in a world of disrespect and no compassion. Just because they are gone does not mean they still are not deserving of respect.

[@sweetbella5664]

Great vid!

[@mohammedali672]

Acid rain is the predomint cause of sandstone and granite headstone decay . Modern marble less so ..... but time will tell !

[@GClooney17]

Hi I notice many people back then died so young......

[@cjdfv]

Elijah Draper born almost 200 years ago! Although it's fathomable, that's still insane to me.

[@staciemckenty-assal8949]

Now I know to get a metal headstone. Thanks. I wonder if it would attract lightening though.

[@paigelee6321]

Awesome video loved it

[@heartforwon]

Great job

[@nikkidodd2305]

Please read the dates. Cant see them very well.

[@bexxy2407]

Very interesting video

[@pamelahumphries8128]

The two name less side by side headstones are James Stillwell 1819-1887 and Elizabeth Bond Stillwell 1826-1908

[@cecilyballengee1482]

I would love for u to come to Georgia to my area me and my peeps can show u around some awesome spots in Bartow county here in Georgia I'm on FB if your ever tempted. We have allot of paranormal activity here in Georgia especially my area because of the civil war. my aunt is a local historian as well

[@donnanoe6736]

Very strange that all of the McKinley wives are buried in the same place. Very well kept cemetery.

[@MichelleJune67]

Always AMAZING 😍💋

[@SurfCityBill]

Seems like the mowing and edging would be a full time job. Someone must be doing it. The place looked good, not overgrown.

[@ReesieandLee]

I’m getting nothing accomplished because of bingeing your videos today. Oh well, it’s 100° outside, too hot to do anything else anyway

[@539Productions]

Well, I am glad to have you watching!

[@ReesieandLee]

I have never heard of or seen the Woodmen of the World markers. They are so stunning ❤️ I found 3 of them at a local cemetery and was so excited! I drove 50 miles to grab my mom and bring her up to show her. When I was a a lil girl in pigtails my mom used to take us to walk around cemeteries, I’ve always loved it. Thanks for all the work you put into these. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE when you have your red hair!

[@ddd3240]

It always amazes me how many people that died in 1918 probably in the Flu Epidemic. It’s just something I noticed in my “stomping” thru cemeteries in East Texas. Now you will start looking for it as well!

[@lindamesa4941]

infant mortality was very low in the 17th and 18th century!

[@rayframe3812]

very high

[@Artist6135]

So many of those stones could be easily repaired. I don’t understand why the local government does not care for these former residents. Sad.

[@roberleedodson]

3 wives buried together hmmm something you would see on cold case files or forensic files

[@cindyloustodos2300]

Rob D and did I see some children’s names on that stone too ?

[@cutebutsadisticable]

Women died in child birth a lot back then. They also married young to push out as many kids as possible so as many kids as possible would live.

[@joistevens6463]

People sure didn’t live long back then

[@dawnlindgron5570]

Those were lilies around that stone by the tree.

[@cjdfv]

Actious will be the name of my next beta fish.

[@EmilyTienne]

Aren’t you terrified of the dead? Dead people are evil and could cause you harm just by being alone with them in a graveyard. What if you turned around suddenly and bam! there’s one right in your face staring you down, big bushy eyebrows and all? It’s enough to give me the creeps.

[@tammydeatherage2219]

When I see infants that have no names it breaks my ♥️ heart. Why not give them a name?

[@marydugan6182]

lots of really old trees

[@codekey74]

it seems u dont know what a foot stone is

[@bubblesangel555]

One man, 3 wives (one 20 years younger than him) and a couple of young children. That guy was busy, I wonder if he was a man of wealth, or had another reason to be so desired?

[@kathykelley8086]

But could you imagine what those other women would be thinking being buried with his other wives?? ( I'd definitely haunt him!) LOL

[@carlruf9037]

It is terrible that people discard non-degradable trash like old TVs and tires on sites that do not belong to them and esp. in a pastoral place like a cemetary. They do it because they are too cheap to properly dispose of these items. There are outlets for those items in most towns and recycling centers and usually it just takes a little grunt work to get those items to the proper disposal centers. This has become a big problem with the advent of flat screen lighter weight TVs. Sorry for digressing, but to litter sites like historic graveyards is unforgiveable.

[@verakurz8047]

Dont see how you do all that walking in sandals!!!

[@Pwrcritter]

Bond? James Bond?

[@ramonapetermann9585]

It's hard to understand, why people spend money to give their child a grave without giving him or her a name. As far as I know, a dead born baby is in the grace of god automatically because of its innocence, even if it is not baptized. But if this grave is as old as it looks, the death rate of children in these days was very high, and if the parents lost all of their kids in a short period, what is likely, they maybe had not the time or the strength to name him or her. So sad ....... and thank you for removing the branches.

[@claudiadesoto2721]

People who dump in grave yard are some low life.

[@JANK-qm9vg]

Get a girlfriend...
