It's great to see the cemetery so intact and original.

[@sonyajefferson6631]

I love both Robert’s ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@esterherschkovich6499]

Me too💚

[@robertburns3014]

What a lovely little family cemetery in the midst of a beautiful, quiet wooded area! These folks may not be remembered by too many today, but God knew them better than anybody on this earth, could. He never forgets any of us!

[@OldWaysGardeningandPrepping]

Once again I can not thank you all enough for what you do to save history of these people. May you continue to do the service that you do to save their names and history. Take care and have a blessed day.❤️🍀 Blessings, Teresa

[@RGrantJones]

I'm only at the 8:30 point, but I've enjoyed the walk up the road so far. When the other Robert says, "Ya'll hear that bird?", four different birds are calling. The loudest one is a Carolina Wren, but a Northern Cardinal, an American Redstart, and a Red-eyed Vireo are also singing.

[@Angelhorselady]

Thanks❣️

[@joyceclark8476]

Hi Other Robert and friends, oh the lady who passed knows sure enough you found it. Somehow, I’m sure she was walking with you. Thank you, God Bless. Joyce ❤️🙏🇺🇸

[@Rose_P_D]

Hey Robert! Those cliffs remind me of Providence Canyon. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure. 🥰

[@elsieminter6875]

Someone is taking care of the cemetery. The head stones have been cleaned. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@MK-ft3qt]

Perhaps relatives.

[@sharonoverton9897]

I have always ❤ been fascinated by the Tombstones in Cementaries ..I started helping my grandmother tend the family plot..in N.C..when I was a small child..I am 70 years old and still love the writing on the Stones. So much history..thank you for what you do.

[@glennyork6800]

Great discovery Robert. War of 1812 soldiers & wives got to obtain a lot of land in the land lotteries in Ga. My great great grandfather on mothers side came from Lincoln Cty Ga to Upson Cty Ga & is buried there with an 1812 having served headstone.

[@bethperry1351]

Thank you for sharing this video, and for all the effort that went into filming, editing and posting it. The luminous green of the trees, the deep red of the clay and the easy banter and respectful presentation all came together in the beautiful South Georgia sunshine to make this one of my favorites. Great way to start my day out here in Nevada. Thank you again so much.

[@jq5609]

Peaceful cemetery. Nice to see it's looked after ❤

[@ebmayes]

Fredonia M Hart is daughter of Wilkins Davis Whaley & his wife Malinda Lindsey - she married Henry Lafayette Hart in 1867.

[@RNKSMark]

She is my Great Grandmother. I hope to visit her gravesite in person! The Hart’s come from KY and Fort Boonesborough.

[@alanatolstad4824]

Well-done. That road was definitely dicey, & despite having to make that long hike, ultimately was the right decision.---Also, the scenery combined with the geology highlights, made this visit a real treat.---And, I do love listening to your birdsong.---I'd like to think your friend in Heaven was looking over your shoulder despite not getting there in person.---Great family outing?!

[@pumpupjam9648]

You and your friend did an excellent job of finding the cemetery! Loved the woods and intact fence! I always like your video's your do Robert (Neon Green)! Keep up the good work, and make sure you take a brush, and pruning cutters just in case! Have a great week!!! And thank you

[@mercedithcompala8148]

God Bless your friend and we honor J.W for his service to God and Country. And thank you for the beautiful walk and the amazing nature.

[@MARY-nx1gu]

Admirable persistence at locating this amazing cemetery Mr & Mrs Other Robert!!! Serious history would have been overlooked if not for your determination!! I salute y'all. ❤

[@clevereagle9327]

Great video. When you find these old and forgotten cemeteries deep in the Georgia woods, I am reminded that long ago these were solemn places for families to gather and mourn the loss of loved ones.

[@kimmyles444]

Robert the red clay filming is really beautiful and it reminds me of Sedona. You really take nice nature shots as you film.

[@anjanettealexander3993]

Huge dedication!!! Thank you Other Robert and Producer. 😉

[@grazhopprr]

I'm sure Find A Grave or some other site, would love to have pictures of the headstones, with names, dates, location of the cemetery. So many people doing ancestry research now, and so many gaps to fill. Wonderful that people are finding these places, that families had hoped would last through time.

[@NoviceSandi]

Thank you very much other Robert and the producer. That gate was absolutely beautiful.

[@benjaminjeffery1976]

I live in Elkhart Indiana and we have an old cemetery that has 600 civil war soldiers buried there. I don’t know how many of the other wars but that fact I do know. That is really awesome that you came across a soldier from the war of 1812!!!

[@ruthbartrum9173]

What a wonderful journey! Great to see the countryside and all of the birds singing. Other Robert, be careful of those mud daubers! They can be MEAN! It's so good of the hunt club for taking such good care of the cemetery. Bless them, and you for all that you do!

[@sharonparker2262]

Hope you had a very Happy Birthday Other Robert! Thank you for your dedication to finding and documenting cemeteries and our history.

[@opalmcclellan7376]

Thank you kind sir for your dedication in what you do, and for saluting ALL our service members.

[@vickisawyer7405]

The clay formations along that road are just so cool, makes me wish I finished my geology course back in the dark ages...But the cemetery is so old and beautiful and so well kept. Makes me wonder if there might be an old homestead nearbye. Thank you (to both Roberts and the assistant with the good eyes). 😸

[@mariagriffin1216]

The other Robert it amazes me how you and Robert find these cemeteries that are in such hard places to go to and I commend you both for doing these wonderful stories about those families that came before us I'm so proud of both of you it's hard work and lots of walking and getting cut up by the briers but you are so dedicated it shows the love and respect you have for them. Love you both and just wanted you to know that . ❤❤Hugs from Maria in Upton Massachusetts

[@marytaylor8417]

I'm so happy to see an old cemetery that is being cared for. Keep up the good work the other Robert!

[@lynnesherwood3748]

Thanks for the walk. My Dad and I used to take Sunday drives on the back roads of central Oklahoma. He would tell me abt all the flora and birds etc. I sure miss those days. (He had a 4 wheel drive rag top Willies Jeep.)

[@celleduffel1533]

what a wonderful little cemetery..once again they live since you spoke their names..ty Mr Robert.

[@anjanettealexander3993]

Also, I believe your friend has found her relatives where she is! She to appreciate your efforts. They are looking from above!

[@marypettitt9150]

Robert & Mrs O., I'm just worn out walking that road with you, and knowing you've only gone half way. Robert, you have a penchant for geology. Fascinating how the geologic history can be told through that road cut. The sandstone and limestone is obvious. but where does the red clay come from? Whoever has kept up the Whaley Family Cemetery has done a wonderful job. There's a lot of love in this cemetery.

[@SondraD7676]

Beautiful color! Ha! Ha! Ha! - "there is only room for one Robert" - carved in the red clay!! It was not just uncensored but brought to our attention. The duel continues! The Other Robert, I cannot find a connection between M.W. Whaley and Parrott - but that doesn't mean there isn't. When the contract comes up July 1, you'd better add; access to and use of an ATV, 4-wheel drive or military vehicle of equal capabilities, at no charge for use and all gas and/or fuel supplied. 😉 Appreciate all of your efforts on this one especially. Thank you, Other Robert. 👍👍❣❣

[@kurtloptien185]

When I worked in Georgia I'd occasionally come upon a nice old cemetery like this one and stop to check them out. Couldn't help but imagine what life was like for the folks buried there. Always peaceful, always perfect the way it should be. So much history and just wonderful memories preserved there. You better be careful of them bees all dressed up like a big ole flower. Bless you all.

[@carol.luna.stella]

Thank you for taking us on your long walk, beautiful scenery

[@angieshotton5703]

So wonderful to see this old family cemetery with the old fence and beautiful gate still intact. Many many years must have passed by since the family names have been spoken. Thank you for sharing this piece of history with us. Best wishes from Angie in Goathland North Yorkshire England 🇬🇧

[@Angelhorselady]

Good job and great video, Mr./Mrs. Other Robert! I think y’all need to talk Robert into providing a Humvee for the cemetery hunts! LOL

[@susanblauss1530]

Really enjoyed the nature walk! A little surprised but very happy to see the cemetery in good condition considering how old it is! Thank you other Robert & Mrs!

[@sharonlegnon7411]

Awesome find.

[@lauraprokopetz3255]

Your enthusiasm and love for the land comes out in all that you say and do on your trek…and strokes the love for nature in your fellow travellers…❤

[@andrewowens9382]

Hi other robert and friends you done a good job and explaining about the cemetery there in a pleasant area so peaceful hope you had a good birthday my birthday is on Monday all the best everyone Andrew south wales uk 👍 👌 😀 🇬🇧

[@martinmarsola6477]

Thank you for the tour today Robert. Very pleasant to see this video. See you on the next! ❤❤😊😊

[@Mr.Thinker-]

Another great one Robert 👍🙏keep safe out there buddy

[@candessak]

Thank you other Robert for this great video! I really enjoy your adventures into history too! Y'all are so awesome! 😁 👍

[@robcates2383]

This is a cool old, well taken care of cemetery, thanks for posting

[@MrMilwaukee]

Thanks for the adventure Mr and Mrs Other Robert!!!

[@lindawilder3148]

Love the video Robert and your humor!

[@brendaz9222]

Thank you Robert! What a beautiful peaceful to lay to rest.

[@craigwills1615]

You are a man of honour, the Other Robert!

[@meredithc2755]

Enjoyed the video very much! The old cemeteries are my favorite subject. This one is in such good shape (except for the one broken stone) and very peaceful.

[@Bob-68]

Great video as usual, other Robert. All the best. 👍

[@cristywyndham-shaw5111]

Those are morning glory flowers on the iron gate. Their ability to rise each morning and sleep each evening resembles human life. It's a flower symbolising life, love, and death. 💀

[@rikspector]

Thank you both for showing us this quiet and lovely cemetery, The road is awful, just as well you didn't try to drive it, but it was worthwhile. Cheers, Rik Spector

[@missirritated4872]

What a wonderful find! It's so adorable how excited you got over the layers of dirt in relation to its age. It's the simple things in life isn't it? Blessings from Indiana ❤

[@rangerbull]

Just wondered if you keep records of military people and regiments and gps so later you can help someone find a lost family member. I know that would be a lot of extra work.

[@lorikrafft8197]

Thank you for sharing this video. What a beautiful fence and gate at that cemetery God rest her soul.

[@shereerichmond4833]

I wish all old cemeteries and graveyards were taken care of this well

[@martinduggan4981]

Thanks for making the Journey to such a solemn and beautiful place in Georgia.

[@anitabaker8259]

I am so grateful to you all.Thanks l am in southwest Georgia stay safe.❤🙏🏾🎉

[@peggylowrie7495]

11:50 AM, CST, May 21, We thoroughly enjoy these videos. Thanks so much for your commitment to history!

[@marshabrown8337]

God bless you and your producer and all your assistants, too. You all do the slogg'n and we all get the rewards of it all. Adventure on !

[@tantejopie268]

That country side is so peaceful, I could sit there and just commune with nature

[@vickymurdock8127]

Great job other Robert and company ❤

[@incog99skd11]

Ya know, my Great Great Grandmother is buried in a lonesome cemetery in North Dakota with 7 other people. A church stood there once. A local farmer has it fenced off and takes care of it. My GG Grandmother was born in Etoban, France and went to North Dakota in a wagon with 5 sons. Her husband was a n'er do well and she left him back east. She died in 1915.

[@ethelchapman6780]

Y older infant twin brother and my step great grandmother was burried in a small cemetery in Custas .Union co. new Mexico. Always wanted go and find them...A new highway now cuts thru that area snd area is a mystery known only to God. Thankyou both Roberts for your searched and recordings.

[@janh5199]

I love cemeteries. Thank you for all you do to rediscover the ones that otherwise would be lost to history.

[@DD-th2bd]

I really enjoyed the walk and tour of the old cemetery but I wouldn't want to be on that road in rain storm.

[@marthakierstead3415]

I love these cemeteries explorations . Thank you Other Robert and Mrs

[@carrieann1640]

Every bit of this video is wonderful. What stands out to me is the close-up of the ruts - how they are their own miniature geology.

[@kerrygilchrist62]

Thanks for taking us along on these adventures ❤️

[@sherrilee230]

That is a sweet place. It's like going back in time. Just beautiful the big flat. I wonder what kind of a plantation it was . Thank you for sharing. You out did yourself

[@MillerMeteor74]

At 3:40 those looked like those wasps that fly around over the wet grass in the summer. They don't seem to be interested in people at all. The ones I see are blue. I was surprised to see that big modern bridge out in the woods on a dirt road. Around here the bridges out in the woods on dirt roads are wooden bridges. Actually we have a lot of wooden bridges around here, but in many cases they pave over the wooden decks, which I don't understand. They've only been doing that in the last 30-35 years. I'm surprised that you didn't comment on the fact that all the stones in that cemetery have been cleaned. But that's great. Great to see that.

[@cdd4248]

Great Video! I love seeing more of Georgia and having Robert point out interesting aspects of his trek. This really was fun!

[@cindys.9688]

Those tall banks are fascinating! What a lovely cemetery. So glad to see the fence and gate relatively unscathed. Thank you, Other Robert and your executive producer 🙂 for making that trek. It was seriously 2 miles one way?!! Yowza!😯 You did it! Thanks again. To the military personnel, a belated "thank you" for your service. A soldier who had served in the Battle of 1812 - amazing!🇺🇲 It's always sad to see the children's graves. I always wonder what they passed from. I'm sure a common reason was illness. Another fascinating adventure!🙂

[@mountainbound1315]

Other Robert post birthday 🎉 keep exploring and bringing history to life.

[@LTB528]

Such a beautiful serene place.

[@bernardboykin9781]

Love your videos. Can you do a video on Demopolis, Alabama, Marengo County, Alabama.. Gaineswood Mansion, Glover Mausoleum, Whitfield Canal, My parents are from there.

[@frankscarborough1428]

You're doing a great job other Robert. Glad the hunt club is maintaining the cemetery. Don't see to many war of 1812 graves in the area you're exploring.

[@MinionTheFirst2024]

thank you Mr Robert 2 and producer!!!

[@dragon24star]

Thank You for sharing your Adventures 😊

[@kimberlybates6261]

Hello 👋 My great great grandma was a Whaley. Her Dad was James Kelly Whaley. I know that James Kelly Whaley went to California because he had relatives there. The famous Whaley House in California in old Town. It's been on those haunted house shows. Those were his relatives. Anyway James Kelly Whaley outlived my great grandmother Peachy Ann Whaley.(James's daughter) She died very young, she wasn't even in her 30s. She was married to John Marion Hume. They had 4 children. He got remarried and also moved to California and left all his children by Peachy Whaley in Oklahoma. That was about 100 years ago. But I'm going to do some research and see where James Kelly Whaley came from. Thank you Mr. Robert. Appreciate you.

[@lornahardin4563]

Your so funny ORobert. Great video. and what a wonderfully kept historic cemetery. Just so sad they all can't be kept up like this.

[@jimmyhappysmith204]

Robert, thank you for all your effort in locating this historic cemetery.It's very impressive

[@doloresvelez3243]

WOW!!! Mr and Mrs Other Robert. Thank you.

[@maragore3478]

Wow Robert you did walk aways, but to see this family plot is amazing, its so interesting to see the headstones dating back to the 1800's, and then the little girl who lived one month, so sad. As usual Robert you gave a great video, please keep strong and continue this unique work you do......

[@robertgrice9962]

Great video. Your new producer is doing a good job

[@deniseoftedahl8937]

[@ramonaalvarez7559]

Hey there O'Robert👋🏼 I'm sure ur friend is smiling down at you. After all, she may be the one who helped lead you to that cemetery. Sure was an awful long way up & down that road. Very interesting walk too. Luv that you showed us the various soil layers. Always wondered about actually making earth ware outta our Georgia home clay. Those yellows & pinks were pretty. Good to see this cemetery is well kept so far off the beaten path. One thing O'Robert .. I know I've said thid b4 but please dont let the camera drop below the line ur attemptimg to read. Ur having a discussion & we don't know what ut talking about bc we can't see it. I'm sure ur arm gets tired holding the camera but at least go back to it so thr viewers can see. Thnx for sharing all the adventures with us. Blessing to you & ur producer .. b safe & well Robert. ❣️🙂🙏🏼

[@bethgiesey9405]

Around the curve 22 miles away probably. Good exercise O.R. all that walking .Thanks for video. Georgia must be teaming with lost grave sites everywhere.

[@bonnamcmann5771]

I just love your videos keep them coming
