A very interesting cemetery. The fog gave things a rather mystical appearance. Thanks for showing us this.

[@nancylpowers4778]

Robert always a pleasure to spend time with you, in these old cemeteries . You always show respect for the ones no longer with us. Sad to say, mother nature has her way, to hide the past.

[@Lorriann63]

I think those wooden markers are cool. Thank you, Robert and Cecil, for documenting all these forgotten graves. A wonderful job from you guys.

That strange cup was a mustache cup for shaving. The soap and brush mixed the lather up in the little cup on top. And clean water was kept in the bottom for rinsing the brush. Probably belonged to the man that was buried there.

[@dixie3086]

I own two of those. I always thought they were for drinking from. To keep the mustache from getting in the drink.

[@janscorza7549]

@ some are used for guys with mustaches to drink out of. But that one had little holes in the upper cup, don’t think that would keep the mustache very dry. But I don’t have a mustache so what do I know, lol.

[@alanatolstad4824]

Interesting interpretation! The cup was originally intended to keep the mustache dry because those magnificent creations were waxed to maintain their glory, & the steam from the hot drinks would tend to melt the mustache wax! Hence, the guard!

[@anjanettealexander3993]

My grandma had a collection of mustache cups. It is an interesting interpretation, as I always thought it was to keep the mustache from the beverage.

[@janscorza7549]

@@anjanettealexander3993 did the part for the mustache lay flat across the side or was it rounded like a cup, like the one they found? I do think it’s is a mustache cup and not a shaving cup. I just looked up the difference, but I’ve never seen one with a rounded mustache cover, usually flat.

[@HeyLisaKay]

Great job Cecil & Robert as always 🫶🏼

[@BR2225_]

Ahhhh yeah!!!! Just what I needed! My grave boys! ❤

[@pats9055]

Thank you, Robert and Cecil, for this walk through of an African American cemetery. I always learn something new and love going there!

[@JaneMcKee-l4b]

The cup you found is an old shaving mug

[@brendahogue5487]

Robert love and enjoy your videos. May the lord bless and protect you Robert and Cecil bringing out the past history

[@ShannonStanley31]

Lol I think you meant to say the Night of the living dead! Love that classic film! But it is always beautiful to me on a foggy day to visit a cemetary. 😊 It does break my heart though with how many cemeteries/ resting places down there are lost... 😢

[@AdventuresIntoHistory]

That’s the one

[@celleduffel1533]

Loved the cemetery..ty Robert and Cecil

[@lindacasper8518]

Bless you both for finding and documenting them.

[@kathywalker6915]

I think the cup is a mustache cup. The little shelf prevented the drink from getting the drinkers mustache from getting wet.

[@karenshepler7128]

Very amazing and nice find as another part of history thank you 😊

[@southernmama9362]

I think those odd shaped wooden markers was originally heart shaped ❣️

[@SurfCityBill]

Very interesting that a burial took place as recently as 2017. I would be reluctant to do that to a family member knowing the cemetery is no longer maintained.

[@billm4138]

It's important to document these gravesites..The African Americans helped to mold our country to what it is today.. DEO VINDICE

[@jamielieberg7053]

Robert very good video thank you for making a historical video on that cemetery

[@kepperMN]

Thanks!

[@user-randi1987]

Thank you both for your efforts and speaking thier names

[@margaretgarls153]

What an interesting cemetery in the woods. Thank you for documenting the graves in the woods and thickets, especially on your hands and knees.

[@melodyhammond3296]

You have good eyes. Always amazed at how many funeral home markers you find! Enjoy your videos, thanks. ☺️

[@richardisaacs3601]

Thanks gentlemen!! Always enjoy your videos!!

[@nancysantamarialatica1141]

Hello Mr. Cecil

[@debracole6587]

Cemeteries can be a gold mine for genealogists.

[@Helena2702]

[@marcbrunson6986]

[@susiebilk9905]

[@nancymoore3456]

[@nancysantamarialatica1141]

Hey Robert.

[@leekorten1791]

💞

[@davidjeffersjeffers7918]

The cup you picked up @13:10 is a shaving mug.

[@susiebilk9905]

❤❤❤😊😊

[@syl19281]

Forgotten cemetary,, really sad 😞🙏

[@karenchilders2449]

Night of the Living Dead? 60s? That movie scared me to death.

[@KonTikiBea]

be nice if someone would clean up these cementaries and bring them back into repair. Just sad they are lost and forgotten

[@FeatheredLife]

hey whatever that loud ticking noise was Robert, it was hard to hear you or cecil.

[@AdventuresIntoHistory]

The occasional tick sounds were caused by a glitch with the microphones. I was unable to fix it in post. I meant to mention that in the pinned comment.

[@marcielottie6620]

Hello, I follow your videos, was wondering if there is anyone doing this kind of recording in Lawrence County Mississippi the Silver Creek area? Would love to know. Thanks so much.

[@MS-hl8fe]

Did the video loop back to the Reverend's plot for anyone else? My TV went back to it three times. I had to fast forward to get past it. Spooky. Maybe the spirit that lives in my house liked that part.

[@scottbatzler412]

Will D2 dissolve that green moss off them concrete headstones

[@AdventuresIntoHistory]

I don’t think it will dissolve it exactly but I believe it would aid in cleaning it up. It may kill it and loosen it. I think it works on moss and stuff. I know it does staining and other growth but it may not be as effective on that stuff that’s rooted in the roughened surface of that concrete

[@45beetle]

Come back and look some more

[@777poco]

Question, in those old cemeteries do people have to pay for the plots if someone is buried today?

[@NicholasLittleton-vw3wq]

I've been fallowing you for a couple of years now I'll love to meet you if you keep coming to Schely Co

[@AdventuresIntoHistory]

We have been going through there about weekly. Usually otw to Sumter co

[@NicholasLittleton-vw3wq]

@AdventuresIntoHistory right now I'm looking for a vehicle if your ever around Hopewell Church Rd I'm all the way at the end on the right before the Marion county line on the right and side the house sets in the corner of Rayburn road

[@McFly8245]

Are the indents collapsed coffins?

[@AdventuresIntoHistory]

Yeah

[@debranelson1987]

A foggy day in Schley County...hopefully the fog lifted at some point and revealed the sun.

[@AdventuresIntoHistory]

I can confirm, it did not
