I have always been drawn to cemeteries . I can not put my finger on why. I commend you on your respect and interest in the way you make your videos. Thank you !!!! Kathy from Wisconsin.
Hi I from here in New Zealand I on face book if I was where you are I'd love go with you but I not they all at peace with God 8.10.2021 this was sent to you regards, j
I'm really enjoying these cemeteries you've been exploring. I love to ramble around through cemeteries because they are quiet and peaceful and full of history. And the deer was an unexpected bonus. Thanks for another wonderful journey and stay safe Matt. ❤
If the seal between the base and the top stone is rotted away or broke water can get between them. In the winter when this happens the water turns to ice and lifts the 2 stones apart. After that happens so many times over the years the top stone usually ends up on the ground. I used to make head stones. Many of the stones I made, I set in Crown Hill in Indy. Son you have set your eyes on some of my stones at some point. I made and set stone all over Indiana. You got questions, message me.
Johnson Island in northern Ohio on lake Erie is a awesome place to visit. It was a conferdate prison and cemetery. It's just outside a few miles from Sandusky Ohio and Lakeside Ohio.
Freemasonry Cemetery...if you want i will send you a vid from a old small cemetery here in Switzerland. To get in i have to take the key from the slaughtery on the other side. Strange but true.
Interesting place , big variety in markers, used materials, beautiful details on several of them. Shame there was no possibility to look in the mausoleum, no chance to see if there is/was a stained glass window because it is boarded up.Always enjoy the beautiful WOW trees (3.08), elaborate and lots of details.Nice surprise by the visit of the deer.Love the butterfly at the end, beautiful, perfect to end this episode with.Great job als always Matt. High quality, great editing...... looking frward for the next episodes. Stay safe while travelling and thank you for showing us the otherr side of the US .
Very Interesting cemetery. Too bad there was damage around the mausoleum that you couldnt get a better view. Im surprised at the good condition of a lot of the older stones. Awesome seeing the deer out there.. Keep Safe❤Keep Well❤
My grandmother wasn’t a “Zelia” but she was a “Zula”. The name was popular around 1900-1910. She was born in 1904 and when I was growing up we wondered where she came by that name. Since then I have seen several Zulas all born around that time frame.
The 35-acre Wayne Waste Oil site is located in Columbia City, Indiana. Wayne Waste Oil, a division of Wayne Reclamation and Recycling, Inc., deposited about one million gallons of oil-related wastes on site from 1975 to 1980.
Matt please be careful of holes like that in the ground they could be yellow jacket nests. If bothered they will come pouring out and there are many in the grounds of cemeteries not visited a to much. Great video.
Another great exploration, Matt ! Looking forward to the next one. Please ignore the negative comments about your hair, etc. The hole could be a fox den.
Superfund Remediation Site usually means some kind of pollution has occurred on the land and the govt. has stepped in, probably because the owners can't afford to, and are cleaning the land up. Love Canal in Niagara Falls Area in New York where liquid pollutants were disposed of in drums in trenches in the ground and filled in. "Out of sight, out of mind" etc. Over the years the drums have corroded and the liquids in them have come to the surface polluting water supplies etc.
There is a beautiful cemetery in Houston Teaxas named Glenwood Cemetery. Howard Huges is buried there...I go often... it is absolutely gorgeous! It was also featured on PBS as one of 10 beautiful Cemeteries in America.
@@539Productions You won't be disappointed especially with Glenwood Cemetery! Also, there is a very old well known Cemetery in Galveston, Texas. It suffered severe damages from Hurrican Ike. A couple of years ago, it suffered damages from Hurricane Harvey but it manages to pull through with some old tombs still intact but the history of the Cemetery is awesome! I love watching your show you are knowledgeable, caring and most of all COOL! 😎
Thank you Matt this was really cool....please be careful and always aware of your surroundings---if something seems weird--get the heck out of there... Folks will volunteer to do checks on cemeteries--this is becoming quite common here in Mi now. That is probably what is going on with the people that always seem to be "stalking " you !
Cemeteries, like people, have a "life span." When the last plot is filled, the last family member interred, care gets more random and things become unprofitable to maintain.
If you ever get to the UK, try and visit the “seven magnificent cemeteries” in London; Highgate is the most famous followed by West Norwood. They not only have famous people buried there, but some amazing mausoleums and catacombs.
A stone that says "1889" doesn't necessarily mean it was manufactured that same year or approximate. Also, Nicholas 's crypt does have a date of death of 19-somthing. That side of the stone appeared to be eroded. Nice video.
The facility sign says Superfund Site. Those are extremely polluted areas which the federal govt EPA has taken over in order to supervise the cleanup. Usually because the company which caused the disaster no longer exists or isn't capable of being held responsible for some reason. That's an extremely toxic place
Iam from Barre VT The Hope cemetery. Has alot of beautiful monuments. Auctally was in nNatinal geographic magazine. Alot of Barre granite from rock of ages quarry. Very peaceful place.
i believe the one you looked at that you thought was in great condition is because it was replaced with a newer stone. I have seen that before where you see the date from 1800 something but the stone looks so new looking. It is because it was replaced with a brand new stone.
Some husbands that seem to have meant to be buried with their wives may not be buried with a second wife, but in the military graveyards in Europe where so many of our WWI and WWII soldiers were laid to rest.
That deer (a doe-female) has her fawn(s) stashed in those thick woods, and wanted to lead either the other people, or you a safe distance away. Deer don't typically get seen, unless it's on purpose, or they are surprised. They probably graze in the cemetery when nobody is around, nobody alive anyway...
Another great found. What is actually that squeaking noise in the background at the beginning? Still strange to see how much the graveyards here in Europe difference from the US ones, but really cool.
I'm in New Zealand and our older cemeteries are like this one. Over the years the old type of graves and stones became very expensive, hence the move to lawn cemeteries with limits on the size of the headstones. And of course the cemeteries filled up, leaving the local authorities with huge costs to maintain them. Eternal care of the cemeteries and the money put aside for upkeep ran out. I worked in a cemetery years ago and my love of them has never faded. What has never faded is the memory of the backbreaking labour to dig a grave. Modern lawn cemeteries are designed to enable diggers and the like to excavate a grave, 30 minutes or less by a skilled digger operator.
How far legally are they buried under the ground level crypts?...we have a few here in the south and there damaged or worn, I can' t see anything so the slabs must be a theft deterent back in the days
I have always been drawn to cemeteries . I can not put my finger on why. I commend you on your respect and interest in the way you make your videos. Thank you !!!! Kathy from Wisconsin.
Me too, I think it's knowing there's people under ground that were once alive. Kinda creepy?

I would love to hear and even see all you know!
That deer was cool ⚓
Omg I really loved this cemetery is beautiful ,in every single way. Nature is perfect.
That deer was pretty cute. Oh I LOVE butterflies! Thanks for the “nature” video!
Beau Travail🔬🍀🎬🙏Alex France🙏
If you ever get up around weston Ohio . There is an abandoned cemetery just off of Euler road . You might find it interesting .
Also the cemeteries on Lake Erie Islands

At--7:56-- Zelia means "zelous, ardent." It is Hebrew in origin. Often added to names that mean love.
I love the way this cemetery looks, very good conditions so peace full. 👍❣

I don't know but I feel like home when I see graves
That's a good size hole so more then likely its a groundhog.

Maybe the name was popular in that era because of the interest in Egypt.The place zula was the starting place of an expedition in the late 1800's
The 35-acre Wayne Waste Oil site is located in Columbia City, Indiana. Wayne Waste Oil, a division of Wayne Reclamation and Recycling, Inc., deposited about one million gallons of oil-related wastes on site from 1975 to 1980.
I noticed it said "Superfund Site" on the fencing. Guessing it's another toxic mess awaiting address if/whenever funds are allocated.
Thanks Matt for giving us another awesome guided tour of more mausoleum's and thanks for sharing. x
Matt please be careful of holes like that in the ground they could be yellow jacket nests. If bothered they will come pouring out and there are many in the grounds of cemeteries not visited a to much. Great video.
If you ever get to Wichita, KS there are several old cemeteries on North Hillside. Cool old personal mausoleums as well as large shared ones.
I love you Matt. 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Another great exploration, Matt ! Looking forward to the next one. Please ignore the negative comments about your hair, etc. The hole could be a fox den.
Another really cool exploration💟💜💗
that hole behind the lone grave is probably an animal hole or den
This was a beautiful Cemetery that was in good shape. The grounds seemed well maintained. The deer was interesting. Your hair was more so.
Very interesting cemetery. Always liked the mausoleums. Sad about the damage.It could be anything.
Not all tree monuments are Woodsman. During the Victorian era a cut tree was used for a younger person. A life cut short.
We're new subscriber's because we love your thoughtful, respectful work! We go on many cemetery visits as well.
Thanks so much, Bridget!

Go to New Orleans in the 9th ward where cemeteries were so destroyed that u can see caskets open. Theres a video on it

Beware of this one sir with the "waste oil" being dumped and the chemical mist it just might induce a return of the living dead scenario. 😂

Iam from Barre VT The Hope cemetery. Has alot of beautiful monuments. Auctally was in nNatinal geographic magazine. Alot of Barre granite from rock of ages quarry. Very peaceful place.
A beautiful graveyard. I really enjoyed looking at it.
Thumbs up from me!! GREAT job as always!!
i believe the one you looked at that you thought was in great condition is because it was replaced with a newer stone. I have seen that before where you see the date from 1800 something but the stone looks so new looking. It is because it was replaced with a brand new stone.
Thank God for cremation. No way would I ever get buried in the ground or in a mausoleum and my family either.
Me either! I'm getting cremated.
Wow man, AWESOME video! I bet that was a security deer checking you out..lol...Thanks so much Mr. 539!
That granit is so beautiful 😇
Great place and loved the deer!
Yup zelia work with a lady named that italian background
The Hildebrand family at 4:15 lost Belle at 7 years old and Blanche at 4 years...so sad
Loving the mausoleums
With older graves I've heard that groundhogs and foxes can burrow underground and one time I heard a fox bring a human bone to the surface.
I have seen a local family cemetery with graves dug up by badgers.
The deer may have been scratching themselves on the stone like cattle do at various times of the year and knocked it over.
Some husbands that seem to have meant to be buried with their wives may not be buried with a second wife, but in the military graveyards in Europe where so many of our WWI and WWII soldiers were laid to rest.
Great job as always! Excellent narration. Thanks!
Just started watching your videos. Love this huge cemetery. Thanks for sharing.
I to drawn to them so quite
I admit I'm not an expert on animal dens, but my first guess is that one was dug by rabbits or a groundhog.
Very peaceful thanks
Remember to please buy t-shirts, to help out.
Buy me 1 dude
Great as usually ❤️love all your videos Safe travels
Love these!!!!!Thank you😇😇😇😇👍👍👍

Some have said the hole was made by armadillo, but I think he's in Northeast Indiana, and we don't have armadillo here. It's probably a groundhog den.
Once again brilliant
Interesting tour. Thanks
Watched on my break ❤️
Maybe the deer was looking to eat the flowers.
Groundhogs will dig into a grave and pack out the bones.. it happens all the time. Good video buddy I just subscribed to your channel
Matt great vid respectful as ever...…...
Like the hair with less red.
LOve your videos ...btw your hair looks better now it looked before but now seems more natural
Cemetaries are fascinating
another great find thank you for sharing
the people that mow knock a bunch over
Love your work!!!!
Some of those markers had to be replaced by someone. They’re the newer type that weren’t available in the 1800s. Thanks for taking us along with you.
Love your videos!
that hole might be from a groundhog
I would say so because of the size.
Love your videos.
It’s interesting to read surnames when you show them. There many I would not see in my state .
Cool!
That big hole it look like a fox hole.
Great video
Awesome video ❤️😊✌🏻
Groundhog hole, the flies around the entrance means it is in the den.
Do you ever get down to Seymour Indiana?
Zelda is an old french name, it means "Solemn"
Good one sir!
i also frequnet cemeteries and i hate when they;re vandelized
Be safe
New that probably was a new Tomb stone with old dates on it that tomb stone is to mondern to be old
Another great found. What is actually that squeaking noise in the background at the beginning? Still strange to see how much the graveyards here in Europe difference from the US ones, but really cool.

I've lost 2 friends from h.s. in their early 50s both died of cirrhosis from alcoholism...
That's either a gopher hole or a coyote den.
How far legally are they buried under the ground level crypts?...we have a few here in the south and there damaged or worn, I can' t see anything so the slabs must be a theft deterent back in the days
They're still 6 feet under. These are known as false crypts.
I know of a really cool cemetery in mecosta co if your interested. That might be a fox den.
Vandalism of cemeteries is evil. That will invite a divine curse...
I dare you to go there for filming at midnight please .... !
There is a facebook page about grave blankets if anyone is interested.
