Hello from Long Island, New York. A gorgeous cemetery! I used to walk through cemeteries, but can't walk anymore on my own. Your explorations make up for that absence in my life. I've never seen cemeteries like this in the States. Thank you for the tours.
Andreas Gregorowicz - born 1806 in Lithuania, Polish lawyer, surgeon, and freedom fighter, who was exiled during the insurrection (1830-31 Polish-Russian War) against Russia in 1830. He died in 1838 from an attack of the plague whilst attending the poor in Edinburgh.
Hi Brian,I hope you're well..This is why I love scrolling through.I learn a lot from locals.ive gone through old cemeteries here in Australia and have learned a lot history in my own country.i have that people back then put more information about the person on the head stones.stay safe in your part of the world.✌️🇭🇲
Robert Stevenson was a well renowned civil engineer especially noted for the Bell Rock lighthouse just off the coast of Arbroath. It is mounted below sea level and the area was well documented for many a shipwreck. It is the oldest sea washed lighthouse still standing. Awesome video. Some very historic notable Scots at rest in there.👍👍
If you ever feel like translating one or two of the Latin inscriptions, such as the one that was on Andreas’ grave, you could pause your film and type the inscription into Google translate from Latin to English and tell us what it said. I think it may make us feel a bit closer to understanding the incumbent of the grave. Thanks for your visits.
so nice to see these places reasonably preserved.. lovely.. pretty sure the cemetery workers were checking to make sure you weren't a sketchy guy 😁..i wouldn't doubt they have security cameras out there.. beautiful tour Dan, thank you! have a nice evening ✌️☕💌
Thanks for sharing all these great cemeteries! I always get on Find A Grave after watching to see if I can find any of my Maxwell ancestors in the cemeteries you visit! This was a gorgeous one, very scenic! 🍀❤🍀
What is it about Scotland that, even when there *are* trees around, it still looks utterly *devoid* of trees? I realize the forests were cut down ages ago... but Jeez Scotland... plant some evergreens already. LOL.
Lol! Scotland has the highest proportion of forest of all UK nations, and in the past 100 years that proportion has significantly increased. The vast majority of that is what you claim it doesn't have: evergreens; specifically vast commercial coniferous forests. Far from being what's needed, they are increasingly being recognised as a problem - monocultures that don't support wildlife diversity. What's actually needed is far more native, deciduous trees, precisely the ones you seem to have a problem with because they're bare in the winter.
@@clairenoon4070 Thank you Claire. I'm glad to hear that trees have come back to Scotland and sorry to hear that the majority aren't native. It was only a joke. I know there's some beautiful forests there; I was just making a snarky comment about how bleak Scotland looks at times, in some places. I'm looking forward to visiting someday to check out how beautiful it really is. And I live in a place where the trees are bare in the winter. But I also love evergreens. :-)
Hey! We used to walk around "old" cemeteries when we were young (midwest; US) - now we're old and still think it was such an interesting and calming thing to have been doing - but omgoodness, our places were total bores and practically new compared to these. These, here, are, like, shockingly beautiful -
hi, I am a new subscriber and I just love how gothic the old cemeteries are over there. I had wanted to take rubbings from some of the really old tomb stones but I never got the charcoal or the paper after I got over to the UK. I live in Wyoming USA and I really want to go back, still time to do this, just need the money. Before I go just a word of warning, beware of the "Weeping Angels"! One who wishes to walk with you!
Thank-you for another interesting walk about! Contrary to what some have said, we DO have some interesting cemeteries in the U.S. A notable one is in St.Louis. While there, I saw what I thought was an ornate & stained-glassed chapel- The closer I got, I realized that it was a large mausoleum for the Annhauer-Busch's. (Of "beer" fame-yeah, I put that in quotes for a reason-being more of a BeamishStout fan). Very ostentatious, but impressive. The one in Chicago off Lakeshore Dr. is also worth visiting & there are countless others. Carry on, my friend & stay safe.
This is a mighty cool . Old, that circular brick crypt looked centuries old, amazing looking brick. None the less, I wouldn't want to go strolling through there at night, couldn't pay me.
Hey Dan, thanks for another great walk. I find many cemeteries peaceful and serene but this one, I have to admit that I found it unsettling. Maybe it’s just me 😊. Wishing you the best, 🇨🇦
I'm from and live in Edinburgh and have walked through here countless times throughout my life. It's a very peaceful burial ground, very open and serene. It has beautiful surroundings and in summer is an incredibly quiet and comfortable place to rest when you're in the city centre.
Just curious, have you ever brought any unwanted guests home with you? What I mean is my uncle did some work in a cemetery a few years ago and strange things started happening in his house. Have you ever had any experiences like that?
Hope he didn’t end up with those two oddballs cadging a ride home and are still with him!!….I don’t think they were cemetery workers…I think it more likely homeless looking for the driest “warmest” place to crash for the night..hence those stacks of wood in the other place…the wall looked burnt too. It’s a shame..if it’s not vandals, grafittti fanatics,it’s now become a homeless hostel! Sad.
@@helencheadle5285 you're mostly right. A few graveyards in Edinburgh, particularly those in the city centre have a real problem with junkies doing their drugs in crypts. Seems pretty appropriate considering they're already dead inside.
These are unusual mausoleums. Mausoleums usually have shelves inside for the coffins. These ones are just open walled areas with memorial plaques on the walls. Where are the coffins? Are they buried within the walled area? Rest in peace, all who are interred in this elegant Scottish cemetery.
Oh my ❤😍 Such a beautiful place! I could’ve spent all day going in each one and looking, reading and translating as many as I could. As a little kid 👧🏼 I used to go past churches and often read the gravestones just out of pure curiosity. Alas I’m now in a wheelchair ♿️ and find it difficult to drive it straight on a pavement 😂gotta make yourself laugh haven’t u when life boots you in the face. I was wondering, maybe those guys saw moving coming from u in the crypt and were just making sure you weren’t a drug addict or something, you never know- that with the branches kinda looked like a pre made fire 🔥 maybe they have the odd homeless person or whatever someone could stay out of sight in one of those… till they lit the fire..😂 but yano 😊xx
Robert Louis Stevenson, the writer, was Robert Stevensons son. The Dad made the first lighthouse, fantastic story that includes the sad relationship between Father and son. Witten by Robert Louis Stevenson is my favourite poem "The Celestial Surgeon". Great walk.
Those family areas that are almost in ruin, adds to the very cool atmosphere of the place. Good find my friend! 👍 isn’t it strange how those little bundle of sticks are always in places? 😉
Those two workers were defo following you to make sure you weren't there to vandalise. The place is probably less a touristy spot than other graveyards and it seems they've had some trouble with wee shites spray painting graves. It's always inherently creepy how places choose to monitor and dissuade that stuff by sending workers out in your vicinity though. Silent workers following you and then avoiding eye contact in a graveyard is extra creepy.
@@CanadianaEast That's exactly how property and shop workers act when they start shadowing you around a place to make sure you're not up to trouble or shoplifting. It's a balance of slight intimidation and poorly pretending to act like they're just needing to be in the area. Most muggers aren't really going to go through the trouble of buying high-vis jackets just to mug someone in an empty old graveyard during the winter. Would have been easy.

I recently discovered your channel. I really enjoy your videos. I find cemetery walk channels very interesting. I love the beautiful cold clear weather on this walk and I bet you were freezing. Do you live in Scotland? Seems to be strange people in the graveyards there
Seeing those many outdoor crypts, just wondering where those bodies went or reburied.? Yet they are different from the USA, yet there much older I assume. Nice walk you had that day.
If I had a penny for every time I was followed into a crypt-*sigh* ! Anyway have you considered a full size graphic of sticker on one of the tees ? That'd be great ! Okay have fun on beautiful walks- you don't know how lucky you are to be in Europe. Watch your 6 - brandy
I found a statue of a bird with a broken wing. I took it home and fixed it with a bonding agent. Before it dried I was smacked which felt like 3 fingers to the back of my head and promptly returned it to the grave.
Wow what a place really enjoyed it until those two chaps came out from nowhere still it’s very exciting to see all the different memories of people from the past at the end of the day we all go there ❤
New subscriber enjoying accompanying you on your walks~ Without Googling I think the famous writer Robert Louis Stevenson ( Treasure Island ) was part of a family of lighthouse designer/builders. The gentleman Buried here might be his grandfather Robert?
I will tell you one thing those two guys just worried me for your safety what chance would you have in such a large place where would you run o my goodnessxxx keep safe
At 14:19 there's a disembodied voice (a spirit) the says something but it's kind of hard to make out. The first word is "Good." It kind of sounds like, "Good luck." It could also be "Good bye." Not 100% sure but it's DEFINITELY creepy!! 😱
I remember visiting this graveyard a few years ago and what annoyed me was ppl with dogs going around the area letting them run freely over the graves . It's a mark of disrespect to the dead regardless to how long ppl have been interred there. 😮😡
You can get in touch with the local authorities who will tell you where to find records of burials. If you have a date for your dead relative they might be able to help you. Or you could try the old parish records of the local churches.
They're not dumped as such. A good few years back - 2005 - Edinburgh Council did a citywide inspection and toppled around 8000 gravestones that were deemed to be unsafe. There are a few cemeteries in Edinburgh that have more on the ground than standing. I guess because of cost it's up to individual families to resit them.
Robert Stevenson was a very famous lighthouse builder and also grandfather of Robert Louis Stevenson the author of Treasure Island.

I wonder if the strange bundle of sticks you mentioned are like bringing flowers as a tribute to a coach builder wood symbolising his craft?
most likley a sleeping spot for a homeless person
I guess that cemetery workers don't have that much to say. Most of their clients are pretty quiet people!
Excellent point ha
😂
Many of these mausoleums seem to have been either not competed or partially dismantled… anyone know why? Great video

Is there a online list of who is buried here? I have ancestors who died in Edinburgh but don’t know where they would have been buried.
I’m sure there has to be. In America you have Find a Grave. There has to be something similar in Scotland. I hope.
You can get in touch with the local authorities who will tell you where to find records of burials. If you have a date for your dead relative they might be able to help you. Or you could try the old parish records of the local churches.
Can you find the Courtney please as I am a Courtney from New Zealand that would be very helpful thank you
