I believe the parents are buried by thier daughter. They just don't want attention. But no parent that loved thier child that much would not have been buried anywhere else. They would of wanted to be near her. I'm sure after her parents were both deceased the cemetery out of respect closed up the window. I'm glad.she should be left alone now. It's ok to pay respect. But I also believe they are together. I'm glad the cemetery is well kept. Love,respect and positivity always . Neita james.🙏🌟🦋🌠✨🙌🌻🌷💐👋.

My family alway's went to the graveyard and made a day of it. There was singing and food, it was quite an occasion. Now the graveyard has few people there remembering their loved one's. My dad would alway's say don't worry about bringing me flower's when I'm gone because I'm not there, just the remainder of my body. I'm not going to be there because I'll be with Jesus.

Hey Lamont. I copied this from another site about her parents HER PARENTS ARE THERE WITH HER? One of our very first subscribers and friend, Barbara Town wrote: "I also did a lot of research on the Ford family. Mr. Ford was a successful businessman who died in Natchez and was buried at the same cemetery, grave unmarked. Mrs. Ford then moved to Pennsylvania to live with her sister. She died there and her body was transported back to Natchez for burial. There is all kinds of misinformation on the internet about where they actually landed for burial. After much investigating, I found out that both parents were indeed buried in the Ford plot, next to Florence, although their graves remain unmarked. The Ford plot can accommodate 3." ------ Thanks Barbara!

[@angieangiel2666]

I was there last year and went to see the grave.

[@drzusie]

I don't think the window existed. Or it was torn out in 1887 when they buried Washington in the vault. His funeral expense in his probate packet was for the wall into the Family Vault to be rebuilt by a brickmason. There was no receipts for gravediggers. Ellen left to permanently live in Philadelphia around 1872/1873 per her lawyer affidavit (She had to contest the claim of Henrietta Mercer Ford, Washington's 2nd wife, on the estate. She proved that despite separating they had never divorced). I think the window story is exaggerated.

They are buried beside her, just in unmarked graves. No one knows why, maybe money constraints or maybe they wanted their daughter to have all the attention.

[@airbubble.]

The family owned a fairly large cotton plantation with 24 slaves prior to the Civil War (census report 1850), following which the father lost most of the land along with most of his money. That may have something to do with it. I expect they were then forced to live on much more modest means. Ellen moved to Philadalphia for some years, I presume following the death of her husband, where they had ties from their early marriage, perhaps family (?) and she died there, then was transported back to Natchez to be buried with her husband and daughter. There were remaining family and friends in Natchez, but possibly it was either her wish, or money or a combination of both which left their graves unmarked.

The mother left the area and lived out her final years with her sister in PA. She died in 1892 and her father died in 1887

The grief of child loss is something I can't even explain. It is worse than any physical pain you can possibly feel . It feels like your insides are being twisted and your heart being crushed. . . I lost both of my girls, one at birth and then another at 21 yrs old. It has been 3 yrs now since my 21 yr old passed, but you carry the emptiness for the rest of your life. I get through because I know I will see them again.

I am so sorry for your losses.

She was not comforting her daughter she was comforting herself. Her daughter is with God where there are no storms.

[@bluedragon4]

Or is that what comforts you?

[@fernandoduran2094]

SO TRUE, SO ACTUALLY SHE KEPT HER DAUGHTER ALIVE BY COMING TO HER GRAVE DURING STORMS & COMFORTING HER WHEN SHE WAS ONLY SATISFYING HER DESIRE TO KEEP HER DAUGHTER ALIVE, THE MIND IS AN AMAZING & MYSTERIOUS THING!

[@supportyourtroopsathletes6460]

This is not the first cemetery Channel video on KZbin of this little angel and her story about her mother and history, reports of visitors visiting her grave the same way mimicking her mother's activities during storms. From what I remember however, where the window was has since been covered over behind a concrete slab however. The slab of concrete is on another video and the approx height where the window once was . May this little angel rest in peace.

That grave site with the steps and everything must’ve cost a bit of money back then.

[@Jackieghosts]

Me and Irene share the same fear. I 32 years ago and I still hate Thunderstorms. I am glad her mom got to do that for her daughter

[@champcummings9574]

She was so young RIP sweet child it hurts me to here this about her dying so young as a child 🙏and rest in peace to the parents.

[@dianes2652]

Lamont .... you are a treasure. Thank you for all you do and who you are. God bless. Stay well ❤️🙏🏻

[@psementalist]

This is way different from any other video you've ever done before Lamont. R.I.P

[@janicebelfiore856]

I have lost my son and I can tell this mother. loved her daughter very much!

[@liveyourbestlife143]

Ellen is a wonderful mother. I love my kids dearly... however I dont think I could personally handle seeing them after they passed away behind glass. I think that would break me.

[@ctaber2011]

My great grandmother used to come and visit this grave in her younger years and she remembers before it was bricked over.

[@ctaber2011]

She said her parents are buried on either side of her, in unmarked graves but inside the barrier. The fathers name is on the Gate.

[@lacadmin2844]

Rest In Peace to that poor girl 💐🙏

[@rebeccaross7684]

Hi Lamont! FindaGrave gives details of Irene's father Washington and mother Ellen. I sure appreciate your travel and efforts to document. Your voice and humanity is a great part of your talent as a storyteller!

[@williampatts755]

Same here he did a great job. Hi Rebecca how are you doing with your family I hope you’re safe from the virus?

[@bigrooster6893]

You need to see the guy who put his wife in a clear casket and he built a small cottage and put her coffin in it and every morning he would go to a and drink his coffee beside her.

[@luxuryqueen42]

What’s the title of the video?

[@madeinmichiganinthe60s59]

I would like to know too?

[@AnnieBoBannie421]

Dr. Carl Tanzler might interest you......he took it a tad too far......

[@deen5924]

God bless the parents for providing a beautiful grave for little Irene. So much love and devotion for their child. ♥️🙏💐

[@gabrielcoelho19]

I saw this grave on another channel, but it's good to see it again. Makes me thing about how was their lives in the 1800's

[@caryrevels6584]

Thank You Lamont for sharing that story, How a devoted Mother even though her child died. Still returns to comfort her during storms. A heart breaking tale for sure. RIP Irene I'm sure your Mom will be holding your hand in heaven when the next storm comes.

[@brendabranam4626]

Thanks for all your hard work!

[@lisavillalovos6882]

This is one if the most precious stories I've heard. My daughter is 19 and has always been scared of the storm. Ive had to call her to calm her down from a bad storm recently. Heart goes out to all. 💛🌻

[@kennethross624]

Back then that graveyard would have been half full of people. People were not separated or afraid of death back then. They would take a day and picnic at the grave. It melted my great-grandmother's heart when she saw a ghost. They had no fear.

[@patrickverona3098]

Thanks Lamont. Amazing video as always. Rest In Peace little lady.

[@annebernadettejones7143]

Am i having a deja vu moment???great upload as always😊

[@clareh3880]

I know right, I thought he'd already done this one lol.

[@nursecee_7737]

Right, he did do this one before

[@karenh4058]

This is so sad but it’s also sweet how her mother came to visit her at her very unique grave.

[@christinemorrisondingman9622]

Hi Lamont, I was curious to see what happened to her parents and it looks like she moved to Philadelphia where Ellen, the mother passed away Nov 2, 1892 but was buried in an unmarked grave at this cemetery (I would assume she would be buried by her daughter). Her father, Washington passed away Oct 11,1887 in Natchez, MS and is also buried in an unmarked grave. I assume the wife moved to Philly after she lost her husband.

[@LaurenWoz421]

I wondered if they could even be next to her in that large grassy area, but in unmarked graves. Only seems fit ❤️

[@TheTonialadd]

Thanks for the video Lamont. The cemetery is beautiful.
