- My fiance and I spent a delightful day visiting the various key sites in De Smet, SD where the famous children's story writer Laura Ingalls wilder spent part of her life. She wrote many books but is most well known for her book "Little House on the Prairie."
I HOPE WHEN WE GO TO HEAVEN WE GET TO MEET THOSE WHO INSPIRED US AS CHILDREN AND AS AN ADULT. I STILL TO THIS DAY WATCH RERUNS.
I have a long list of people I plan to seek out when I get there!
Thank you for such a nice video of the Ingall/Wilder families. What always amazed me was how during the blizzards of The Long Winter Almanzo Wilder and Cap Garland drove their sleighs to get very much needed wheat to keep the people of their town from starving to death. They kept crashing down into the air pockets in the snow along the slough. They’d get off the sleds, dig out, and drive the horses until the sleds were back up and going again. They made it to the farm, got the wheat, then drove back. One store owner was going to charge a scalping fee for the wheat, and Almanzo and Cap put a stop to it. They were good men and they saved many lives that winter. Laura was very blessed to have such a good husband. My favorite book, if really that is even possible as they are all so good to read, was “These Happy Golden Years” where Almanzo proposed and soon they both married. Loved the artwork on the cover of the book depicting their romance unfolding along the lakes on those buggy rides. Laura gave us all around the world such a wonderful gift when she shared her life in the pages of her stories. I hope Laura and Almanzo are having many lovely buggy rides as they once did, but this time without Nellie. 😉
I agree with you.
Nellie may have repented and they may all be in heaven having a good time together.

I hope so. At least it can be said Nellie had good taste in men. Almanzo was a good man through and through. No one can deny that.
I wish we could go back in time and meet them all. I wonder if anyone still has any of The 'Ingalls' belongings that were sold?
They are in a museum at Laura and manlys last home I heard
I am her direct desendent and we owen nothing of there's
@@childswampfoot1897 I'm sorry - but Charles and Caroline Ingalls have no direct desendents.
Only Laura had a child - Rose Wilder lane - and she had no surviving children.
When I read how Carrie died before she could respond, I almost cried.
Loved every minute of this video. It just takes a person back in time to how simple things were. But yes hard work. All the open land back then. It had to be a great time growing up.
Are u nuts? Mary went blind because of a Meningoencephalitis ...she had to live with her mother and sisters for her whole life. also you must not ever been truly poor cause there is nothing to romanticize about being hungry...truly hungry. You ar3 a dangerous idiot. Sigh you make me sick
White folks are always saying that. Entitled privilege has its ignorance, and they don't want any contributions from non-whites taught in predominantly white schools, because heaven forbid the "superiority" lie gets blown to hell.
@@novideostoday Hell yeah🤟🤟🤟
I will never bow down to any minorities who think they deserve this world because their ancestors were treated just so "terrible" not terrible enough as far as I'm concerned
My class read all the books and now I came to this I love it!
I was there in the mid 1990s. Standouts were the replica soddie and seeing trees planted by Charles Ingalls. A memorable trip, well worth for any LIW fan!
Thank you for Great piece of history watching Little house now
We went to De Smet a few years ago as we be traveled the road of the Ingalls family. It was so interesting. In their house in De Smet is a braille book that Mary took everywhere. Don't know how she could even carry it it was at least 8 to 10 inches thick it was twice the size of an old family bible. I will never forget being there. I never heard of Laura Ingalls Wilder until the show and my kids were young Laura's books were in print when I was in grade school many years ago. So glad I have had the opportunity to visit their homes and their many places. The only places we didn't make was their home in Kansas and Missouri. Those will be a trip to look forward too.
Being reading the books for days and now looking at the tombstones of Ingalls familly brings me a strong emotion of sadness and nostalgia. I hope every one can be grateful to their lives and ones they love. Precious things gone so fast.

Thank you for posting such a beautiful tribute to the Laura Ingles Wilder family and I really enjoyed it because I cannot make this trip thank you..
Actually, it's where the Ingalls family is buried. The only one who is not buried there, is Laura. Laura is buried along side her husband Almanzo, in Mansfield, Mo. Rose is buried along side her parents.
Not an American, but remember the "Little house on the other prairie" series from my childhood (it was played in many countries all over the world) and two or three years I had the chance to re-watch the series and I enjoyed your tour to the real places. ❤️
The books are amazing, none of the saccharine of the tv show. They’ve been translated into many languages and are worth reading even as an adult!
Thank you very much for sharing this! I love their story, the books, and seeing their possessions.
I LOVE THIS...JUST FINISHED WATCHING ALL NINE SEASONS OF LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE...LOVE THEM ALL ...
In 1968 my folks drove 40 miles out of the way so I could visit Laura's home in Mansfield, MO. I was 10 and adored the Little House book. My father even made me a wagon so my Barbies could go west! The family that lived in the property were going to a family reunion & I never got to visit the home....
My Barbies were pioneers, as well. They were dressed strictly in 19th century clothing. None of the usual “trendy” Barbie outfits were allowed! 😂😍
I loved the big woods of wisconsin. Third grade teacher would read it to us everyday.
Thanks so much for the video. I love the Little House books.
Great piece of history watching Little house now
I met a relative of Laura Ingalls Wilder at my job. His name is Bernie Wilder. I am a bit young for Little House on the Prairie but he clued me in.
Wonderful video of the beautifully well kept history of the Ingalls family
Love this show and book
Thank you for the touching video.
Loved every bit of it ,as it brought lovely memories when I visited Knoxville Tennessee
I’m from Knoxville... wondering what you mean by this? If there’s something around here, about the Ingalls’ family, I’m somehow missing it. (& I do NOT want to miss it!) :)
We just visited little house in the prairie outside independence Kansas earlier this week. I love watching that show & I usually make the kids watch as well.
The olden days fascinates me, not much difference from the 3rd world country where I was born and raised, only it's in the 1950's until the 70's when I was introduced to the new world in the Western civilization. I love the reruns of Little House on the Prairie. As a matter of fact I saw every episodes of it, except maybe a few scenes where I had to skip it for I did not enjoys some of the characters where they are not well known actors. Sorry,, nothing personal to them,, but I always liked the beginning when the Ingalls kids are still little.
Thank you for this. At the age of 63 it has become a goal of mine to visit De Smet, but I don’t know if I’ll ever make and this video was so in depth!
Wow what a piece of historical value
We made a visits to DeSmet. Nothing like the show but enjoyed the tour and still watch.
Another one is also buried in the De Smet cemetery. That's Laura's unnamed baby boy, who died 12 days after he was born. He is buried in the Ingalls family plot in the cemetery.
That grave is shown in the video. It says: Baby son of A J Wilder. (Laura's name is not depicted on the stone)
Loved this video!!
I read the book about the life of Laura and she taught at The Bouchie School. Brewster was the fictional name.
I was at this place, it was very nice.
What surprised me about surveyors' house was how tiny the main room really was in comparison to Laura's description.
There is a house in Southern Missouri that Almazo built for Laura on their homestead.
You’ve done a wonderful job on this video. I hope to visit there one day.
Beautiful place
Love the shows
I visited that museum, when I was in De Snet!
Same last summer
Wow wonderful and beautiful ¡I like!
So cool thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
I love anything about the Ingalls family!
Excellent video. Thank you!
Amazing to look at the surveyors' house and think that was once the Only house, on a wild prairie, with wolves outside.
Also Carrie, Laura and Almanzo lived from a time of horses to jet engines, a time when people were scalped by stone knives to the atomic age, a time of uncertain travel to global maps. The amount of technology and global changes they witnessed will probably never again be experienced by humanity.
Nice, good job ☺️👍🏻 thank you for the video.
I must be the only person in this world who thought this was just a tv show. I watched it each week but had no idea until now that it is based off of a real family. How did I go all these years not knowing? 🤣
The TV show is mostly fiction. While based on the real Ingalls family members & assorted characters from the books, most of what takes place on the weekly episodes is invention.
I read all the books series of little house, tears coming from eyes, I don't know why, I'm in India Bangalore, can I see Laura houses and places especially Wisconsin little house,?
The Wilder farm is up near Malone NY, way way way upstate NY. Pretty cool place to check out.
I visited the home several years ago was very nice.
Thank you so much,any more?

Well apparently the Ingalls family could travel in time. Seeing as how they were pioneers in the 1970’s!🥴
Did no one notice the typo in the first slide??
They are having the pageant this year at the old homestead in July
Pretty home
A lot of good history here in this video
What happened to the little china figurine that belonged to Ma and was mentioned by Laura in her first two or three books?
You don't see safe neighborhoods like in those days
💖
Laura wanted to come back to DeSmet 1957 June 10th founding of DeSmet but was to ill to be there maybe she passed away i can't remember
Been there used to live in Sioux falls
I didn't see Charles Ingalls not Laura nor Carrie's name. I wonder where they are buried
Not actual fiddle the real one is in Mansfield Mesouri
they were not very poor as be portraited in the tv series, right?
Loved every minute?
This was 8 minutes long??
😍❤
Where is Laura buried?
Kansas with her husband, look it up on find a grave
Laura is buried in Mansfield Missouri. We go to there graves every year and to the museum there. Shes there alone side of her daughter Rose. Almonzo is there beside her. I always leave message for her on her grave.
@@annehorstman6071 Mansfield MO, not Kansas. I went to Mansfield and visited their home and stood at the actual gravesites.
@@shawkitty2524 ok thank you for correcting me 🍎
@@annehorstman6071 No problem Anne! You were gracious.
interesting

Are her relatives still alive
None of Laura's sisters had any children. Laura herself had daughter Rose who never had any kids.
@@lieneslesere4526 So sad 💔💔💔
@@emmacrawford984 it is indeed. Only relations alive would be greatgreatgrandchildren of Pa's and Ma's brothers and sisters.
@@lieneslesere4526 actually Ma, Laura, and Rose each have birth to sons that unfortunately died as infants.
@@lieneslesere4526, Rose did have a baby son, but he was stillborn.
Khe sad :(
Great video! Thank you for sharing it with us. I really appreciate it.
