One interesting fact: Lizzie was an early advocate for animals. She rescued many and dedicated a lot of her money for the cause. Many of the parties that she held at Maplecroft were actually fundraisers for animal rights organizations. Another interesting fact: Lizzie's uncle (her mother's brother) lived next door to them and he killed his own children. That family had some real issues.

While attending my grandmother's funeral there, I asked the caretaker where Lizzie was buried. He said "Not with the family."

True or not, it was interesting.

Fun Fact - I live in Taunton in the county of Somerset, Uk. I think that is where the original name for your town in America originates.

[@retrobeaver8902]

Your absolutely correct. A young woman named Elizabeth Poole from England found the town of Taunton, MA in 1637 and became a town in 1639. It became a city in 1864. Her final resting place is also in Taunton, MA. She is the first woman to discover a city/town in The United States/Americas.

[@stevecockrell8639]

Curious as to why she spent 10 months in Taunton city jail. Ash street jail was only 2 blocks away from the court house and the trial only lasted 12 days. Another side story about her I'm curious to hear about

[@marianneprescott1497]

While they did not live together in their older years, they died at almost the same time. Emma left Maplecroft early on since she was not happy with Lizzy’s lifestyle. Emma moved to Vermont I believe.

[@ShannonLee1956]

The folks who previously owned Maplecroft did so much work getting it back to the way it looked when Lizzie lived there. They wanted to make it another bed and breakfast but had troubles with things, not exactly sure what, but hopefully whoever buys it will not change anything and maybe try to do the b&b themselves.

Lizzie was ostracized from polite society/ her social circle, after the court case. She did go live high up on the hill with actors and actresses as her only friends, which was frowned on in good society. Actors were looked down upon.

When you zoom in on Andrew Borden's body right where he was struck in the face one of his eye balls is dangling down it's hard to see even when you zoom in pixels start to get in the way but it's there and looks to be split in half a bit buts it's dangling from the face.

[@stevenmarie03]

Quick correction...Emma lived at the Maplecroft house only for a short time, as she was firmly against Lizzie's lesbian friends and 'acquaintances' that frequented the house. Also, you can read the actual transcript from the trial...there's a book written verbatim from it. 'The Trial of Lizzie Borden' if I'm not mistaken. Their Uncle that visited and spent the night before the murders was the only other person (IMHO) that was a legitimate suspect.

The problem is he doesn't appear to have any true motive he didn't profit from Andrew's death, only Lizzie and Emma did so I can't see that he had any part in it other than possibly knowledge. I've often thought that the maid Bridget knew of the murder but probably didn't help and covered for Lizzie. I've been very curious to know what happened to Bridget after this

[@BillHaynal]

Couple minor mistakes. Lizzie’s real name was Lizzie. After she was acquitted, she changed her name to Lizbeth. Also you are correct that autopsies were done of Andrew & Abby in the dining room but Lizzie didn’t faint there. She fainted in court when they brought in the actual skulls of her parents to show the handless hatchet could have inflicted the wounds in their skulls.

[@lm2530]

Great job with Lizzie's story! Enjoyed the video! The main reason Lizzie got off was the phrase "guilty beyond reasonable doubt"! Even though many things maybe pointed to Lizzie, nothing directly tied her to the murders. They had to let her go. They could not take her life on "maybe she did it". Back then, many men, (jurors), did not believe a woman could commit such violent murders. Elizabeth Montgomery's portrayal in the tv-movie of how Lizzie could have done it is very plausible!

I’ve been avidly waiting for this video and you both did not disappoint.

Fun fact: Elizabeth Montgomery was related (distance cousins) to Lizzie. As for whodunnit? I think Lizzie did commit the crimes, possibly in collusion with the maid. It’s interesting to note that had Andrew died before Abby, his estate would have passed to her and then, with her own death, to her relatives and not to the Borden girls.

I have known modern day relatives of the family. Based on their temperament, I would say she did it (by having somebody else do the heavy lifting so to speak) Even if they had hard evidence, she rightfully should have been acquitted as they had her drugged out of her mind on morphine to "keep her calm". Growing up near Fall River, I have always been fascinated with this case. I even did a video on this, thanks for giving the story justice.

[@cassiemontgomery45]

What are her modern day relatives like? I have noticed that families often carry distinct traits and culture that is unique to the family......no matter the generation. It can be good or bad. I'm told by my older relatives that I'm very much like one of my great-grandmothers in looks and personality. I don't remember her. I was at her funeral mass in 1987. She was born in 1904 and I was born in 1982. I think that certain attributes are passed through the generations. I'm just very curious about the modern day Borden family.

Another well done tour. Always interesting in your technique. Another Haunt you may be interested in visiting is Jefferson, Texas. The Diamond Bessie murder took place there and at the time of the trial (1877) it was as sensational as the O.J. Simpson trial in the US. Her grave is worth a visit in a very historic graveyard. Several of the hotels there are reputably haunted. My favorite's the Excelsior, built in the 1850s, and from first hand experience I believe it. There's even a nightly ghost walk tour visiting all of the saloons and brothels from the hell raising days. A beautiful well kept town.

That's not far from where I live. I've been there years ago, but never had time for sightseeing. It is a beautiful town with some interesting history.

Quick correction - the room marked “Lizzie Borden’s bedroom” was actually Emma’s bedroom. Lizzie had a bigger bedroom right next to it - I believe they switched rooms because Lizzie had things from her travels that she wanted to show off.

[@amyb347]

The bedroom next to it that was originally Lizzie"s is significantly smaller. They switched 2 years prior to the murders because Lizzie had too much stuff. She did bring back a lot of things from her travels, but she was also a kleptomaniac

Yet again you've tought me so much, that mansion was stunning, as a metal detectorist wonder what could be found under the grass of that place, maybe some lost jewellery from her or her sister, maybe her cameo broach

We took a tour of the house just a couple of months before you filmed this. The guide was very well versed in the complete story, including a number of things that are not generally talked about. When we went, we, like most thought Lizzie did the killing. After the history lesson, we both have come to believe that she was the brains, but her uncle actually did the dirty work.

[@jmoliere1207]

yes the evidence points to that

[@joannehopwood7123]

Thank you for taking us along on your wonderful adventures. You two are amazing!💙

[@runedharma22]

Saw a news interview done in Wisconsin, and the gal being interviewed looked like a kinfolk to Jessica. Great story on Lizzie. Makes me think of a band Thin Lizzy.

[@arizonaalchemy7572]

I lived in New England ( Rhode Island ) for thirteen years. Never made it to the Lizzie Borden sites. Great Vlog, THANK YOU.

[@karencarter8214]

From what I understand Lizzie always called her step-mother Mrs. Borden. There were also rumors, nothing was ever substanciated, that her father was having an incestuous relationship with Lizzie. Also, it pissed Lizzie off when her father loaned Abby's sister money. There are also a lot of misconceptions about Abby. She was not the shrew Lizzie and her sister portrayed her as. She cared about those girls, and really tried to be a mom to them. It was a terrible tragedy all way around.

[@amyb347]

Not true. Emma always called Emma "Mrs. Borden." Lizzie initially called Abby "mom" because she didn't know their real mom well when Sarah died, but after Emma and Lizzie found out Andrew gave money to Abby's family, Lizzie started calling Abby "Mrs. Borden." They also stopped eating meals with Abby and Andrew.

[@tommycrawford6277]

I live in Goldsboro North Carolina where some of the Borden relatives moved to and purchased an old cotton plant and renamed it Borden Manufacturing Company. My parents, brother, grandparents, great aunts and uncles all worked there until it's closure in 1995.

Another great story, chilling, and it’s details again. Nobody can tell the story like you can excellent video.

[@luischannel04]

The house for sale is in great shape. I would buy it if I had the money .

[@judydavenport9636]

Cold down here in Georgia as well. Another great video. 🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@livingauthenticallyonmyownterm]

Michael, you’re such an amazing storyteller and cinematographer!!! When I’m watching you and Jennifer, nothing else exists. Someday, you need to direct a movie my friend. I know it would be an incredible time, up for an award. Peace, blessings and ‘Happy Halloween’💀♥️🤟🏽

[@deannastoll3921]

Actually Lizzie changed her name to Lizbeth when she moved to Maplecroft. I

[@LaurenMiddleton28]

The North East has the best Cemeteries. They look like something out of a movie set. You guys are there at the best time.... Fall. Once you get into early December winter hits and it gets super cold. This channel is so unique. There really is nothing else on KZbin like it.

[@samanthab1923]

It is true. They're laid out like parks.

[@l.t.1305]

You two should visit the villisica ax murders house

[@zeusgyd422]

Great stuff! Love the channel. I'm a native of New Bedford (no longer reside there though) and have been to the Borden house as well. Unfortunately never made it to Maplecroft. I can remember my sisters saying the Lizzie Borden rhyme while jumping rope as kids. Seemed like everyone new it back then. Not sure how much time you were able to spend in New Bedford but there are a lot of old historical homes, areas and cemeteries there I'm sure you'd find interesting. Unfortunately it's not the same city it once was...but still some nice areas nonetheless. Looking forward to more content. Subscribed.

[@bonniemacdougall4589]

Actually Emma left Maplecroft in 1905 and apparently never saw Lizzie again. Emma died at her home in New Hampshire 9 days after Lizzie died in Fall River, Mass.

[@Dreamtime-Walker]

You Two Would Be The Perfect Couple to Buy that House! 🦋

[@JeepForFun]

Ok. Totally my favorite so far! My mom who is 92 now, we’ve watched the movie several times many years ago. We loved Betty Davis. Thank you for doing this one. Loved it!

[@SymphonyBrahms]

Bette Davis never played Lizzie Borden. It was Elizabeth Montgomery.
