Glad to be one of the first subscribers. This channel will grow in no time. I like the narration ilustrations and facts. Nice style. Good luck to You!
Thanks and welcome!
The Donner Party is an amazing story. Blimey life was tough.
Word for word, everything's taken from WIkipedia but the additional maps, and positioning of individuals mentioned is highly appreciated.
This is so well done! Great job!
Glad you like it!
Truly a great documentary about the ill fated trek of the Donner Reed party the audacity of men is sometimes great and sometimes tragic. I don't know why Langford Hastings didn't get into some kind of trouble for telling pioneers to take this so called shortcut when he himself didn't compete it with a wagon
I really love listening to history.. this was absolutely great listening..thank you so much for this ive listened several times 🎧👍 subscribed
We appreciate it!
This was well done, thank you. There are numerous youtube vids regarding the Donner Party, some with more detail, but this was as excellent overview for those that do not know about this tragic event. Good job.
The quote written by Tamsen Donner was written after she was rescued from the Sierra Nevadas. This simply means that she wrote this after having cannibalized her fellow travelers.
“…I shall say the trouble is all in getting started.” Is a truly haunting quote.
I watched many documentaries about Donners and yours Is one of the best. The imagery and your name organization made me understand it so much more . Thank you
Great stuff man ! Keep it up
Appreciate it!
O wow!! Nice !😮😅
Thanks!
I thought this was a very well done Donner party accounting. I'm unsure about the script but I thought it was well written and delivered, and I thought the paintings were interesting and well done. I would be curious to know the source of the script and the paintings and having watched and listen to numerous Donner documentaries I would put this one in the upper set regarding quality. For a 1 hour overview of the Donner party tragedy this would be just about the best, Well done!
Hey thanks for kind words!
Basic reasearch was done in almighty Wikipedia of course, also alot of details are taken from survivors themselves: Diary of Patrick Breen; Memoir book "Across the Plains in the Donner Party" taken from the spoken word of Virginia Reed Murphy.
As for pictures/paintings, they are handcrafted firstly from generative AI, mainly (Midjourney V5), and then heavily edited using Photoshop.
Hope that answers your questions. I'm sure I've missed some minor sources, but that's all i can remember from the top of my head.
Nice. Greetings from Serbia.
Awesome ! Well done job
Your channel will be big !💯🔥
Thank you!
190 subs, soon to be 190,00!
Very good coverage however in the end you say that there was only one surviving member of the donner party yet on the last list of deceases (in red text) & alive (in white text) there are several children there including Leanna who went on to get married and has descendants today.. in fact there are many names in white text that survived from all of the families.
Subscriber here, great channel!
Thanks for the sub!
Well done video without the AI computer voice.
Thanks!
If they had crossed the pass six hours earlier they would have made it over safely.
This script sounds familiar..
This seems to be a carbon copy of another older donner party video on youtube tho.
Would you please identify the source of the script and the paintings if you know.
Wikipedia. Word for Word. As for the images used, its mostly AI generated.

This script is a stolen script. This is not ‘Unearthed’s’ script. The artwork is made up of European models and very few are authentic to the American westward movement. Stop stealing the work of others and stop re-imaging the truth. Your slip-shod approach is disgusting.
