Also visit the graves of baseball great Satchel Paige, Civil War General Jo Shelby, Gov. Thomas Crittenden who sought the capture of Jesse & Frank James, and Joyce Hall who founded Hallmark cards.

I took a trip to Tennessee in 2020, the humidity was brutal. You have my respect out there in that heat, and humidity. Very interesting cemetery, lots of history there. No matter opinion or side of the Civil War, it is part of history that we can't change or erase. People who take down statues will be the cause of repeating history. Really enjoyed watching this video. Thank you for sharing, take care Jeff. 🇺🇲

I live in the Illinois suburbs of St. Louis and I agree that the heat and humidity can be brutal in the Midwest and South. I sometimes wish that the air was drier here like how it is in the West, but the tradeoff is that the humidity and resulting rain here in the Midwest and South gives us a lush green landscape. I prefer that over the largely brown, unvegetated, and unwooded areas common in the desert areas of the West. My favorite time of the year weatherwise in this part of the country is the last half of September and the first half of October as the weather tends to be brisk to warm with lower humidity and plenty of sunshine. October also coincides with peak fall color season.

I know what you mean about merciless humidity. I grew up in Ohio and hated those days, so I moved to California while I was still young. I live on the coast where 70 degrees is too warm for me. The Lillenas hymn you highlighted greeted me when I stepped inside a very large Baptist church in Ohio many years ago. It's been a favorite of mine since. Thank you for all the work you do, tracking through cemeteries all around. I truly appreciate it.👍👍👍👍👍

I am a native Georgian & although I have lived here my entire life(67), the heat & humidity still gets to me. I asked my parents what they did when it got so hot & they said, stay in the shade & wear your arms out waving funeral home fans. They were raised on farms where they picked cotton & grew all kinds of vegetables, along with pigs, chickens & cows. They did not have it easy either. No inside plumbing, no central heating or electricity. They heated the house with a fireplace & cooked on a wood stove. So I feel for you in the heat. Stay hydrated.

I'am from the EAST coast line and weather there can be hot and humid to. I thought california was hot and humid but i guess the air is different there. I did not know the baseball player satchel paige was buried in that cemetary thats interesting to know, but seems like from that area to the east coast line is filled with confederate graves, i have family buried in upper part of VA they were in the confed war. they died of disease. sorry you had to sweat so badly there. thankyou for the hard work it is appreciated by me. Take care.

Another terrific program. Thank you for your work. I love history so I watch your channel often as you know. I wouldn't spend too much time showing disagreement with the Confederate graves. I in no way agree with Socialist Democrat Slavery or Segregation. These folks were American's who had different values and ideas than the rest of us. Some families were split in two. Friendships ended. It was bad. We got through it and we learned from it. As American's they have to be buried somewhere. Also as American's it shows we have a lot of pride and backbone. Buck O'Neil and Satchel Paige, Mr Hall, The Truman family and a Supreme Court Justice are in the same place as Confederate Soldiers. They all have their own place there and their own story. No other country in the world would have a resting place like this. We should be proud. I know I am. I mean, look up Socialist Democrat former President Woodrow Wilson. We have a bridge named after him. There is an area in Virginia off of I81 for him. He is buried in the Washington Cathedral. He was a segregationist. Former US Senator Socialist Democrat Robert Byrd who was a member of the KKK and best friends with the 46th and current President of the United States. Matter of fact, Joe Biden spoke at Byrd's funeral and said Byrd was a great man. A KKK member a great man? That's what Socialist Democrat Biden said. Byrd is buries in Arlington, Virginia at Columbia Gardens Cemetery. There are some notable people there if you look it up. All buried in the same place as a member of the KKK. And down the street from one of the most sacred places in America. Arlington National Cemetery.

You bring back thoughts of my own family history. Jesse James: My great grandma's family apparently had their land taken from them by the government in order to "flush" Jesse out. Secondly, my husband's family is related to former governor Burns from Hawaii. His grave marker is small as well. He wanted no special treatment or fanfare. A man of the people. A great career though being a point to bring Hawaii into statehood. This would be a great HH episode if you get to Oahu. It was also suggested that he was part of the inspiration for McGarrett on Hawaii 5-0. I look forward to learning more about all of our family history. Thank you for your passion and education!

Missouri was the 12th state of the confederacy, however it never officially left the Union. Most people feel the same way about the Confederates, because they think it was all about freeing the slaves. That could not be any farther from the truth. It was ALL about money and government overreach. If freeing the slaves was so important, why did it take almost another one hundred years for the civil rights movement?

# 5 The marker for Mr. O' Neil was very nice - certainly never have seen one like it before.

I never really thought about who founded Hallmark, but since it is a famous card company even here in Australia ( we got hallmark cards every birthday 🥳) I really enjoyed hearing about Joyce Hall. I don’t blame him for going by JC (what were his parents thinking 🤔) Thanks Jeff. ❤️Jodie 🇦🇺

When I lived in California, I would chuckle when my Midwestern relatives complained about 80 degree heat. That's before I moved to the Great Plains and found out what it feels like with humidity. Great job, as always!

Yes! The humidity is like adding a blanket on an already hot day!

Humid weather is brutal Jeff, I remember during USAF basic training in San Antonio, TX, just walking out the door in a newly heavily starched uniform and immediately becoming saturated in sweat! No fun for sure, thanks for taking one for the team. Very interesting video today and thanks for the research and old pictures and videos too.

Thanks for another great video. As a native Californinan (Carlsbad), living in Connecticut 16 years now, you never get used to the oppressive humidity of the summer months.
