SHOCKING EXPOSED COFFIN FOUND IN OPEN CRYPT FORGOTTEN! ( Cemetery / Graveyard tour )

This SHOCKING EXPOSED COFFIN FOUND IN AN OPEN CRYPT! While doing a cemetery / graveyard tour we found a rarely seen metal coffin dating back in history to the mid-1800s (19th century). Sadly this crypt has fallen into disrepair and we need your help getting the info out to reach the family or get the cemetery to do the right thing and fix this. We are calling on all of our Genealogy experts and concerned people to help get the word out about this abandoned and forgotten grave.

Thank you for sharing!

[@patricialenaburg6553]

Glad to see your taking off in different directions, such as cemeteries. Not that I don't like the metal detecting, but cemeteries have so much history also, and there seems to be so many lost in time, and new discoveries.

[@HistorySeekers]

Yes, we love all aspects of history. Always open to other suggestions too. Thank you for watching

I went to high school with a Hill from Oglethorpe, but he passed away about 2 or 3 years ago. I don't have any contact with his family. He had a younger brother that I knew, but haven't spoken to him in 25 years.

[@HistorySeekers]

Thank you for letting us know. Hopefully we can get word to the family.

[@joyceclark8476]

Hi Heath, now I’m subscribed. I’m from the Wagon wheel video with Brandon. I just realized from this video I never hit the subscribe button like I had said in those comments. Glad i noticed from this video. Anyway, I hope the family sees this. Cool you let this be known. Thank you, Joyce, Connecticut. ARROW *🎱. ❤️.

[@HistorySeekers]

Thanks for the sub and we appreciate you coming over! Brandon is a great guy and a good friend. We enjoy doing videos with him.

Great Video Heath and very interesting... definitely something you don't see very often!

Interesting video!

[@HistorySeekers]

Thank you

Just did some quick research. Apparently Hill's headstone was applied for in 1930 by President Ida Shealy of the Oglethorpe, Georgia, United Daughters of the Confederacy.

[@shadymaint1]

Contact the local VFW or American Legion. They should know who to talk to conceding vet graves.

[@HistorySeekers]

Great idea.

[@JohnnyReb]

@@HistorySeekers The local Sons of Confedetate Veterans would be another idea.

[@JohnnyReb]

@@HistorySeekers I've reached out to the local SCV they're going to take a look.

[@ww2abandonedcampshelby665]

Camp shelby has several cemeteries that i try to take care of. They were there before world war two when the government bought the land and built camp shelby.

[@HistorySeekers]

That is awesome!

[@jamesjr5500]

On something like this would you have to be a direct descendant to get it done or just a relative? Why I am asking is because I have a 2nd Great Grand Uncle who died during the Civil War and he had no kids since he died so young. His name is incorrect on his grave. He is in the Nashville National Cemetery. I am looking into getting it corrected.

[@HistorySeekers]

I believe it would either need to be direct or closest living relatives. It can get tricky depending on how many are living. No easy answer there.

[@MayoFilms83]

I shared this with the Sons of Confederate Veterans I'm sure they can help with this.

[@HistorySeekers]

Thank you JD!

[@gregbishop210]

His grave is listed on Find a grave and has pictures showing the coffin just like you showed.

[@HistorySeekers]

Thanks Greg… wasn’t aware of that. Do you know when it was posted. Apparently someone else posted a picture this weekend prior to us releasing the video.

[@HistorySeekers]

They were not there when we filmed. Looks like they were added recently between the time we filmed until we published. It takes a few days to edit usually.

[@gregbishop210]

They were added by a Christina Lee but I do not see when it was added.

[@HistorySeekers]

@@gregbishop210 looks like she added them the 19th. A day after we filmed. Glad someone posted them. I wonder if we can add the video?

[@heavymetalnut1965]

why wouldn't the cemetery step up to the plate and do the right thing? they have back hoes that could lift the head stone and the marble slab.

[@HistorySeekers]

Unfortunately I appears there are several in disrepair there.

[@eleciatatum678]

Coulda loaded up on some peaches and vidalia onions if I had known you were in my State :)

[@HistorySeekers]

Maybe next time!

[@imwaytogoodlookingtobeyour1188]

Cool

[@maryc6189]

Any update on this?

[@HistorySeekers]

not as of this time. waiting on a family member who is currently deployed with the Army. He said when he get home he will fix it. The man buried there never had kids so no direct relatives.

[@chriscourson2824]

lots of times , the health dept, in the county will cover it

[@HistorySeekers]

Good call! Didn’t think about that.

[@detectingadventuresscotlan6035]

Y is the government not repairing this this ex service men if family alive should know if visit grave

[@HistorySeekers]

Same question that we had

[@rozlincoln3568]

I’d buy some dirt and poor it in there for a temporary fix

[@HistorySeekers]

Unfortunately the camera doesn’t do the size of the chamber justice. Plus getting it toward the other side will be difficult.

[@GoogleSpyZon]

Do we have any updates, this is a falling hero?

[@fontaineyah]

No SCV camps local ?

[@HistorySeekers]

Not sure there. It’s 3 hours away from us.

[@fontaineyah]

Ga SCV says that's third brigade . Maybe try to contact them .

[@HistorySeekers]

Thanks. One of our Facebook fans has tracked down a nephew. He is deployed with the Army right now but when he gets back if it’s not fixed he said he was going to do it.

[@scottblevins4298]

His parents must have been history buffs or at least very patriotic, that is if he was named after Whig party Senator Henry Clay (just a thought, I could be wrong...I love American history ;) )

[@HistorySeekers]

Great catch Scott! I missed it and I also study politics.

[@scottblevins4298]

He served in the Senate and House of Representatives out of Kentucky...I believe he was also Speaker of the House at one point in his political career

[@HistorySeekers]

I remember reading about him after you said that. I just went back to read up and refresh my memory. I wonder if his family had any connection to him.

[@JohnnyReb]

@@HistorySeekers Most likely not. Before and after the war it was common to name your children after someone who you admired or was famous. For example my 2x great great uncle was named Benjamin Franklin West. One of my fourth great grand uncles was named George Washington Hollingsworth. After the war one of the common names for a son was Robert Lee after General Robert Edward Lee.

[@lisad476]

Why don't you call veterans see if they will help

[@faerieSAALE]

Hey, pull that coffin out and open it, take a look! Nothing but bones and stained coffin lining and clothing rags fragments in there anyway! Put it on YT! bawahahahahaha

[@HistorySeekers]

Sorry but we don’t do that.
