For those of you that missed the note I had put in the description box regarding the woman at the end: 🛑 NOTE - There is no surviving photograph of the Italian Prima donna who went down in the last moments of the sinking, so Lulu White, the famous black owner of New Orlean’s most notorious brothel “Mahogany Hall”, which was at it’s height later on in the 1890’s, has made a special appearance for us to stand in to help portray that final fateful moment.

My God. The man fell into the crack of the sinking ship that cracked in half, the lifeboats that were sucked into the sea as the ship sunk, the woman who knows she will drown... How horrible. The sound effects of your story were excellent - all that wind! The cemetery was very well kept - and then, sadly, the cracked plate of the subject of your story - the Gallier Monument. Thank you for the telling of this story. 🙂

I've watched (tried out) a lot of similar channels and I must say I always come back to yours. Everything is perfect. I understand the difficulties one sometimes faces with weather and wind, etc. But you manage to make it work better on your channel than any other channel I've personally watched. If you ever tire of doing this, a lot of people will be sad. Hopefully you will have continued inspiration to provide us with these wonderful and knowledge filled videos. So much gratitude is sent to you, from me, for all your hard work and extensive travels. You are very much appreciated.

When my husband and I first met, we discovered that we both enjoyed dawdling in cemeteries, though he had more reason to like them, since he was from New Orleans. Your choice, here, of St. Louis N° 3 is where he first showed me the local cemeteries, since his grandparents are there. Their spot was one of the many labeled in Greek.

Wonderful story. Beautiful cemetery. Thank you. Even today I will not get on a ship. The sea is treacherous and the ships can always fail even if by contaminating illnesses. I have a horrible fear of masses of water and height. Just looking at the drain lid of a pool brings up this fear. I don't know if we reincarnate since the Catholic religion says no but I feel my fears are from a past life. Today's ships look so beautiful but I just can't do🤷🏼👍🏼
