200 Year Old Message Hidden in the Ohio Woods
My neck of the woods.
saint paris,ohio (mad river)
I met with the goat man when I was a youngster in Attalla Alabama at Del_,Ed Speed Way. What a memory that was we gave the goats a soft drink during the visit.
I'm 43 and would see him in or around Augusta GA ., with his goats. That would have been in the early 80s.
American Mythology? WTF? This isn’t a myth, it was true.
I met him several times...in the 60s....
Growing up in Cleveland Tennessee, I remember the Goat Man well. He could certainly draw a crowd when he came through Cleveland.
A to the man!
Cantrells men had it all worked out. Nearly all.
I wanted to ask a question on the video about the Bluesman that did a deal with the devil, but the comments were disabled. What is the Music track you are using in that video?.
My mawmaw and pawpaw told me about the goat man coming through soddy daisy and middle valley Tennessee.
Big Wetzel fan here from Gilmer county WV. His story is one of the most interesting of all Americans.
Lewis Wetzel was an absolute terror to Native Americans and never gave up his hatred for them. There are a number of good fa tual books about Wetzel.
My daddy has relatives buried there
My dad grew up in Booger hole
Lacy Ann Boggs is my 3rd great grandmother. I ❤this!
great video, you have a new subscriber. keep up the good work
Never f*** with your War Heroes.
Very cool to see this place again, I spent hours and hours playing in that ravine as a kid in the 90s. We often took chalk sticks with us so we could trace the letters and read it more clearly. I grew up in Morgan county and a school friend lived within hiking distance from the rock. Feels like another lifetime and a world away.
How come nobody knows what he looks like besides the skeleton
So dope
There is a cave in Northeast TN, that was unearthed during the 1970's. There was a spray painted note in the cave from the early 1920's.
Yes
Hahaha
American non-mythology in this case. Odd you can't go down and buy more than three guns in a week now. Hum wonder why the ATF made that rule, hum really wonder why?
Man i miss this guys videos
Lewis Wetzel was closely associated with Colonel Ebenezer Zane -- an ancestor of famous author Zane Grey. Wetzel and Eb Zane defended Fort Henry as one of the last battles of the Revolutionary War. Eb Zane left behind a detailed journal of his life, which Zane Grey used to write the "OHIO RIVER TRILOGY" containing "Betty Zane" + "Spirit of the Border" + "The Last Trail". The Trilogy follows the real life adventures of Wetzel and Zane, describing actual events and other historical people. See: czcams.com/users/results?search_query=Ohio+River+Trilogy+ or obtain the novel from booksellers.
Yes I'm in Elyria good video very interesting
Beautiful work
The Dark and Bloody River
I'm from oklahoma and my dad used to tell me about rawhead and bloody bones but as one solid entity that was completely skinless besides a pair of wings made entirely of children's skin (I think he took a lot of that from the jeepers kreepers movie me and my brother used to watch it a lot when we were kids) and that if you were in the woods alone after night he'd swoop down from the trees and skin you alive
What I find interesting is that looks like the middle of nowhere but clearly it was a well traveled area 200 years ago since wetzel isn't the only one that scratched a message into the rocks.

I loved that book! I wanted to sleep inside a tree and make pecan pancakes
Did they make a movie of this
Amazing work. Where can I find this incredible artist. Would like to do something like that for a project of mine.
Check out the lumby Indians l u m b i e down near White lake North Carolina Lumberton North Carolina and you'll see that the Indians from the coast were taken into the inland to cut lumber and the escape slaves ended up in that same swamp but now the Lumbee are a mixture of those two peoples even though they're fixing to be recognized as a official tribe they're really not
I could be wrong but I don't think Clark county Virginia was even created at that time it was created out of Frederick county Virginia at a later date being the smallest county in Virginia ever to this day it did not exist during the colonial. The settlers at that time would not have lived in a tree in Clark county Virginia it would have been Frederick county at that time
Can anyone tell me if the stone is accessible to the public? I'd like to visit it myself. 2/27/24
The last time I was there, the landowner was real nice about letting us go. You’ll just have to stop and ask otherwise you are trespassing.
You know the prophet Amos in the Bible talks about the people who hid in the caves.....
Just forwarded this vid to a friend with the name Wetzel!!
Im trying to find the video on the shoot out and the sampsons if you can tell me where to find that it would be awesome thank you so much .
The sampsons are my family, I've heard this story from my grandpas brother . There dad was my great grandpa and Bill sampson was his dad and I believe Howard was an uncle . This was really cool to find I had actually been bored and was looking for something to watch when i remembered hed told me to look up boogerhole sometime so i looked it up on youtube for shits and grins and found these videos and was watching in Ah next to just hearing about it thank you I found it fascinating . I've got some black and white pictures of the sampsons and the one posted in the video of Howard . I also heard about the cemetery but have never been there . Not my grandpa's brother who told me the story but his other brother wesley sampson was buried there in the early 2000s anyhow thanks again I love the history.
Now that's a REAL man! You wanna compete with this guy?
That’s awesome, I’d like to visit someday
Power comes from the barrel of the gun. G. Washington
I’ve never carried a hammer and chisel into the woods to do some rock carving. Lew was a heroic guy with huge brass nuts. To load a smoke pole on the run. From injuns! Holy crap! Who now could do it?
I live in Morgan county and there was an Indian campsite located on the property and Indian mounds nearby
Wow, awesome
😮
