_________________________________________________________
The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.
#Graves #Cemeteries #Death
Some of the women were beyond Beautiful. Beauty in that time period was so different then today!! Lot of tragedy. I always wonder how they died, what kind of life they had, what kind of people they were. I can study old pictures like that for hours. I did subscribe to your videos. Thank you for doing this and taking us along !!👍👍🇺🇸🗽😊😊
Same here. I wonder what these ppls life would be like
real natural beauty!
Ya know, he has inspired me to start hitting my local cemeteries and tell the stories of the people there (that I knew) or we're related to. There really is a void in that topic... Most of the cemetery visiting channels do stores about victims of crimes, or famous (or infamous) people, or people who historical figures, ect. But my goal is to tell the story of the 'normal' everyday person who helped build the local cities, worked at the local cotton gins, or were Farmers that helped start the area. And there are a dozen or two people who were actually Friends of mine who I'll be doing a video on, who were interesting and I'm doing my best to find their pictures in my stuff in storage. I hope to shed a spotlight on the 'normal' person who would otherwise not be remembered, from other than their Family....
I agree and I also subscribed!
I left similar comment a few days ago..i totally, absolutely feel you..
Considering how basic photographic equipment was in the first half of the twentieth century,the photographer's created some amazing portraits.
My grandmother was born in Italy and my father was first generation born in America 🇺🇸, I am so interested in everything you do and all the information you do before your videos. Thank you for for everything you share with us. My father is no longer with me,he served in Vietnam. Thank you for being so kind to our veterans, I appreciate it.
More of this please, I love seeing the faces of the departed and wonder too how they lived and died.
I would dearly love to spend a couple of days exploring Mount Carmel. I rewatch time and time again as there is always something I missed. I’m like you Ron, I love the porcelain pictures.
That’s what got me started when I was seven or eight years old living next-door to Saint Adalbert cemetery in Niles. It was those porcelain pictures I would get memorized over -who were they?... and what their stories? were. That never gets old.
So released to know that I'm not the only person who loves to indulge in cemeteries they're so fasanating
During the late 20's and early 30's many young and old died due to tuberculosis outbreak , some entire familes were taken out within of few years of each other
Thats right, consumption I think they called it.
True
I was curious why so many died so young
I love seeing the pictures, I would love to come across some and just study the pictures and wonder about their life.
Yup, add to that a flu epidemic during the later part of the 1910's as well. Disease ran rampant. Want to know what helped bring that under control? Vaccines.
Yes, I had an aunt on my maternal side and an uncle on my paternal side die from TB
The women in the wedding dress,beautiful. May they all rest in peace.
That was creepy seeing that statue of the woman praying at the crypt! I jumped back for a second and said, "Whoa."
Many thanks for posting! The one thing I like about U.S cemeteries is how immaculate they are. Despite the large geographical size in comparison to English cemeteries, the grass is regularly cut and the tombs are kept clean. You are right in stating that the porcelain photo plaques are irreplaceable from that era as the one recurring theme of those lovely looking faces, is how early in life they passed. That is truly sad.
How they passed, I will never know, but not being able to see the world change and evolve from the 20's onwards is sad. They have missed out on some much history and right at the end when you took a close up of 9 year old Natale Ruggerio's plaque with him lying in his coffin, that really hits home, because had he lived, he would be 102 years old this December and maybe one of the oldest persons in the U.S. I have everything to be thankful for in life and nothing to complain about.
Indeed. Great commentary, I agree with everything.
Found it interesting that the 9 year old was born on Dec. 19 and my youngest son was born Dec. 18 and is forever 9 years old.
Also interesting side note, my dad was born 14DEC1919. He died 03OCT2013. He would have turned 101 on 14DEC2020
Things that make you go, 'hmmmm'
Some are neglected/ forgotten and those cemeteries sadden me beyond words😢
There are some graves where my grandparents are buried that used to have these porcelain photos on them. They scared me as a child, not sure why? Sadly the photos have all been vandalized and removed or shot and broken.
I really love the photos now, I always think what kind of lives they had. I also love old cemeteries with carved monuments and mausoleums. Thanks for the tour!
THE CRAFTSMANSHIP OF THE STONES AND THE MAUSOLEUMS ARE SIMPLY MAGNIFICENT, AND THOSE PICTURES ARE JUST SO BEAUTIFUL, LOOKS LIKE U CAN JUST REACH THROUGH AND TOUCH THEM , I MUST SAY YOU GIVE THEM SO MUCH DIGNITY , THEY ARE NEVER FORGOTTEN NOW , MAY THEY ALL REST IN ETERNAL GLORY WITH THE LORD 🕊🙏💔😥
I'm loving these beautiful Italian names.. Oh to have a database at these cemeteries that gave the cause of death.
I confess I am fascinated with mausoleums as well.
I always look inside when I'm able to and to be able to see a coffin is an added bonus.
I love seeing the styles and hardware that was used.
Looking at the pictures is really intriguing, makes you wonder about their lives and what they experienced in their time in history.
I love this cemetery, you could spend days and days here.. beautiful and the monuments are gorgeous! Ty
Beautiful video, thanks for sharing. I love it when people leave the photos myself for exactly what you said. Its like a time machine feeling when you look and reflect on the photos.
Discovered your channel last week. Love your cemetery explorations
Beautiful headstones, sculptures, beautiful children so young, beautiful women, handsome men. Some gone too soon. I like looking at pictures on grades makes me wonder how their lives Were. I would put flowers there. Thanks for the tour
So nice you are visiting these cemeteries and graves---we get to see such beauty , and you are honoring these people . Thank you. I am happy to have come across your channel .
Eternal rest Grant unto them O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon them may their souls and all the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace Amen
I noticed on the Errera family (11:41) the dad died on 23 March 1919 and the baby died on 24 March 1919. I cannot imagine losing a husband and a baby in a 24 hour period.
Wow thinking about that, so sad. So sad.
Maybe in an accident.
7:23 is why we went with a laser etched picture of our youngest son on his gravestone. It was suggested to us by the engraver in an email to go that way instead of the porcelain photo medallion. He told us that the medallion pictures can fall out or be removed. We are very happy with the laser etch photo
As long as there are people who visit these cemeteries they will never be forgotten. I was on vacation and because of you i saw a small cemetery and pulled over. It was well cared for. I walked the whole cemetery. I found a maker with my first & second name on it she passed at 65. I'll be 65 this yr. It kind of spooked me. But it was a nice walk.💕
Very interesting What you said happened... 🤔🙄😔🙏
Hopefully you are doing well... don't jinx yourself!! The best years of your life àre at your age!
@@DanOne1513 I'm 66 now so hopefully I got some good yrs ahead 🙏💗
Talk about predominantly Italian cemetery! Wow! Thank you sir, that was beautiful.
Wow!! Lots of Italians buried there!! Makes me happy!! I’m Italian 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Love ❤️💐🌹🌷💝✝️🌺♥️ seeing the faces on the tombstones of the ones that have passed Love ❤️ going along with you on the cemetery walks on CZcams 🥰🥰👍👍♥️🌹
I love that cemetary. Thank you for your time. I appreciate your videos.
"Moglie" means "wife". "figlia" means daughter. "figlio" means son. "Nipote" can mean either nephew or grandson.
What Does figlio de putata mean?
Please, keep this up. Totally enjoyable. So much great history 👍
I so enjoy your videos. Brings back memories of my Dad and myself walking through cemeteries looking at head stones. We lived in Joliet, Il. Thank you.
Antonia Giancana the woman who was born 1886 and passed 1910 was the mother of Sam Giancana
No kidding! I’ll have to watch again.
1:00 Theresa Rago, age 39, pneumonia. Very sad, too young. --Kitty
Since a friend made me aware of your channel, I have really been enjoying and appreciating your videos. I love the porcelain photos too. The devotion which these folks had for their departed loved ones really touches me. I can only imagine how much these mausoleums and statues cost to construct. Such love and devotion! Really warms the heart. ❤️
Thanks for the great note, inspiring!
These deceased people were so beautiful in life!
Wow amazing tour. I wonder how they created the porcelain photography that never fades
thank you for showing us Mausoleums and graves ive always have been interested in this.
Lot of the women pictures are amazing. Like you said . They look like movie stars. Absolutely beautiful
We have a large grave yard in my town, and because of the kind of job l had, l know dozens of the people who are buried there, and l know the stories of most of them. A lot of the stories are interesting, and we have mausoleums built into the side of a hill. I live in Indiana.
The children's tombstones are so sad. They didn't have a chance at life, it's so sad.
I love the pictures on the tombstones.
The cemeteries, in Chicago are beautiful 💙🥰
I can imagine when a baby, young child, only child, young adult who died suddenly in the prime of life would occur, the grief could easily cause families to spend lots of money and have huge monuments made in loving memory. Also, in those older eras: big fancy funerals and titamic cemetery monuments were ways for the proponent citizens as well as the very wealthy to out-do each other.
I believe all this sadness and heartbreak will be quelled by the overwhelming cries of joy at the Resurrection... Thank you Jesus
I've been watching these grave shows for along time, you are one of the best. Btw Graceland cemetary near wrigley field is one of the best. Many famous people Jack Johnson the famed boxer of the early 20th century to Alan Pinkerton, the father of the secret service to Frank Loyd Wright. And many many more.
recently found your channel and it is fabulous. Love, love the commentary and your wanderings. On the subject of how young people were when the passed, there are multiple factors. The biggest being lack of medicine or medical care. They did not have antibiotics for typhus, yellow fever, etc, no vaccines for deadly diseases like diphtheria. Even a simple appendicitis back in the teens to 50’s was fatal. My two sense sending ❤️ from 🇨🇦
Great video and beautiful porcelain photos. Definetly like the older cemetery tours. Thank you for sharing.
Good work..
All graves are time machines, love looking at the faces of the parted and wondering what their lives were like.
Came across your channel and subscribed immediately. You wonder what their story was especially for dying so young. Love the pictures as well. Thank you for sharing
Sir , I love watching your videos , your voice is so calming and professional commentary , very interesting, thanks from brisbane, Australia.
Love the videos your voice is very calming I'm from uk thanks for remembering the people that lived before x
Wow, it does take you back looking at the beautiful porcelain pictures and when you panned your camera back, i think it just shows just how many people are buried there rather than just seeing stones or monuments, amazing video thank you.
Super interesting. Thanks for taking the time to do this. The cemetery is close to my house and I have loved one buried here. Next time maybe you can mention the Italian bride.
I share your channel all the time💗👍👍
Thank you so much Gladys!!! 😀
Another great video. Really like the old pictures.
I think at most cemeteries if you report that there's any damage to the graves like pictures coming off or damage to the stone they will fix it for free and you don't even have to be related to the person and all you have to do is know the name on the Stone and the coordinates of the grave, which a lot of them have number right on the side of Stone. So since you're there I think it would be a great idea if you let the office know and thanks for keeping everyone's memory alive.
Good to know👍
8:50 This is a very sad story of 2 people who share a tombstone and a death day. They lived very close in the same neighborhood (it's now ironically the medical district), and even had the same doctor. They were probably related by marriage as nephew and aunt.
Vito Vincenzo "James/Jimmie" Baraglia, AUG 06 1906, JULY 04 1926, 19 yrs, 10 mo, 28 dys, nephritis, kidney inflammation caused by infections, toxins, or most often an autoimmune disorder. Father is Cristoforo "Christ", mother is Anne Marie.
Concetta Rocco Baraglia, DEC 8 1880, JULY 04 1926, 46 yrs, 7 mo, 24 dys, myocarditis, a viral infection that weakens the heart. Husband Pasquale "Charles" Baraglia.
Had to share this on Twitter. What a beautiful job you are doing. Thank you
Fascinating, do they still make portraits like these, can you visit the palace making them for a video, maybe have yours done? 1918 Spanish flu.
Yes, they do. I had one done for my sister. The service is offered by the monument dealer.
According to my grandfather there was a savage flu outbreak in Chicago in 1916. It was in that year my 3-year-old aunt died from it.
PFC Joseph Biancalana was son of Violet (1903-1929) whose maiden name was DeGrande. He was not interred until 1948 by the time they moved him from Europe (he was KIA in France).
great work Daniel!!!! Love it.
I love the graves with the pictures, as you say like stepping back in time
Pictures of remembrance on these headstones always amaze me. Fabulous clear detail even after 100+ years.
Amazing how theses people died so young, thanks for the video!
Agree 😔🙏💐🌺🌹
Isn't it an Italian tradition to have photos on the tombstone?
yes! is true, also eastern block, like Polish, Chek--see Monday's episod at 2pm. same thing, but different venue.
Love your videos! Great and often sad stories. I love how you narrate the stories of the deceased with respect. I have always had interests in Mausoleums as well. Have you ever visited Recoleta in Buenos Aires, Argentina? Amazing and interesting mausoleums down there. You can actually see the coffins down there.
I’ve never been to Argentina, now that will be a trip. I’ll have to look into that someday. I’ve been to Columbia, Ecuador, Peru. But not way down south.
A lot of these most likely tuberculosis. 😢
Ron, you stopped at the resting places of so many young people in this one.
We are such a fragile species. In 1980 at age 18, the month before I started college I caught a "simple" case of strep-throat. After a night of fever and hallucinations, I remember saying "Mom, I'm dying." She got me to the ER where they put me on the miracle drug of the 20th century- broad spectrum antibiotiotics.
That wasn't the end of it; the strep poisoned me & I went to my first quarter of school in a wheelchair and spent 3 more years recovering from the holes it left in my bones. But I lived!
I have a feeling that so many of these young people, from one to 29 years old could have been saved- had they just been born in the 2nd half of the last century or later.
You are right, those were some beautiful pictures of young ladies and young men. I feel like people our age were so fortunate to be born in the age we were. That is why we find them so very haunting. "There but for the grace of God, go we."🙏🏼
The porcelean pictures on the tombs.... have they always been there? Did they have the technology back in the 20's or 30's to print these or were these put there later on? I've never seen this. Beautiful.
I have always been fascinated by old cemeteries. I appreciate you acknowledging all those lives that have passed. I often wonder if there is descendants alive who remember these forgotten soles. We all want to leave our footprint and be remembered after we’re gone. Thank you for you remembering them!😂
Rose Zottoli , what a beautiful young woman.
5:36 Roti children gone too soon. Mary Ann 1937 age 10 yrs 4 mo, appendicitis. Bruno age 3.5 years, influenza. --Kitty
The Italian boys name "Michele" is Americanized as "Michael" but is pronounced "mee-KEL-leh"
So many young people. Many look like they are from the early movies, just like you said. It is just so sad that many died so young. What were their lives like? To bad the can not tell us but I am curious. Thank you for sharing!
14:40. Too young. Joseph Basile, 19 yrs, 9 mo, appendicitis. Pasquale "Patsy", 17 yrs, 11 mo, inquest pending.
My great grandparents also have these photos on their tombstone, they lived and died in our state of Rhode Island not Illinois.
Im so fascinated by these pictures -so original and unique ❤️ God bless them all 🙏
I just wanted to say rip to all of those laid to rest in each cemetery you visit.
Do they not do those porcelain photo plaques anymore? It's quite beautiful, and while it seems to be a regional thing, I think it would be nice to still be able to get them.
You can still get them!!
What beautiful pictures of the women! Dying so young - I'm guessing if we look up diseases of the time we might find an answer. Thank-you for taking us along. Have a nice day! 🙂
That one woman name is pronounced like con-che-tta. Very Italian name you don't hear it often. I love that name. :) I too have a fascination with cemeteries. I used to wonder around all the time and c take a look. So hard to resist. The curiosity gets me every time.
thank you, I'm so glad you liked the walk...it's not for everyone...great to know we have kindred sprits! 😊
Just beautiful pictures in this yard... thank you!
13:21 Rosa (Rose) Zangara Intravartolo, 24 yrs, 7 mo, lung abcess, born May 23 1909 to Frank and Mary (Cipriano), died Feb 08 1943. Rose and husband Santo (Santis, Sam) married July 08 1928, they had baby Lucia on Jan 31 1934, 8 days before Rose died. I can't find anything else about Lucia. Sam remarried in Sept 18 1937. Lucia was not with them in the 1940 census. He lived for 98 years, dying in 2001 in Chicago, buried at All Saints.
Thanks Bobby, great job-- very interesting!!!
I love how you take the time to honor these people; whether they were famous or not.
I just started watching your channel yesterday, so forgive me if this is a topic that you've covered: have you covered the case of the Grimes sisters? That's a case that has haunted me for quite some time.
That’s one of my earlier videos, scroll down and there’s others like it! Thanks for letting me know, I’m glad to have you with us. Here for your convenience is the link and I think you’ll enjoy watching it, I hope: let me know 🙂

I have read that before the 1940's children often died before they were 5 years old. A lot of women who died young were those who died in childbirth. Sad times.
So what kill those before 5
Oh my go love that sculpture. Very heart touching.
Elusive bygone era of such elegance...class and style.. May they have eternal peace.. Great and respectful videos.. Thank you for your heartfelt kindness and sharing..🙏
In those early years, a lot of women died in childbirth, no antibiotics etc., 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 ☮️
Like my great grandmother, died of peritonitis at 29 yrs, 6 days after giving birth to my grandfather in 1909. 😔
Thankyou that was very interesting i realy liked seeing the pictures, for one doy we remember them.....take care....Mary...in Canada
Wow artillery guns in a cemetery 🪦🪦 i can actually say this is the first time i seen this in a cemetery Thats what happened to my dad's family my dad's siblings all died including my dad literally 3 to 4 years apart from each other. .I just got home from work an its getting sticky outside tomorrow in 90s .an storms on an off this week .I really love the oval pictures on the headstone 🪦 beautiful ❤️ mausoleums an statues .Thank you Ron for taking all us with you . I love the adventures . stay cool 😎
Very good video, enjoyed greatly (from Australia)
Are you going to do some more Mount Carmel Cemetery videos this year?
I have 3 more already done, they will be released next month or so...and yes, spring summer, will explore EVEN MORE there!
10:24 Pretty girl, cute pageboy haircut. Very sad. Josepine Cisero, 7 yrs, 8 mo, scarlet fever. --Kitty
They seemed to me to have a high mortality rate...Many are so young...
Such beautiful pictures!!! So intriguing.
I like to see the lengths of their lives, and I imagine that a lot of the women who died so young did so from childbirth. And the depending on the place in history some of the young men died in war. So sad to see the babies, and what might they have died from: SIDS, plague....
Also in the earlier years of the 20th century cancer was a death sentence.
very interesting and fascination cemetery tour from across the Pond in UK
I love looking at pictures on tombstones
❤️❤️💐💐✝️✝️
That is the largest cemetery I’ve ever seen 🙏🏻
There's a saying for us local in Hillside. There are more dead people than living.
Really beautiful place. The pictures are amazing.
AS ALWAYS RON ANOTHER GREAT WALK THROUGH HISTORY AND TIME , LOL 😆😆😆 THAT MARY STATUE INSIDE THAT GLASS OF THE CRYPT DOOR 👻👻 GOOD THING YOU DIDN'T GO THROUGH AT NIGHT YOU'D NEED A CLEAN PAIR OF SHORTS LOL 😆😆😆 TAKE CARE FOLK👌👌
I really enjoy your videos. Both of my grandmothers were nurses during the flu epidemic in 1916-1918.
They both passed as a result of caring for patients. I’m 76. I shared this only to give you a reference. However, you likely knew that. I hope I didn’t offend you. I may have may dates off...Thank you for your insight.
June!. Love ya! thx for being part of our family here.
I used to love walking in this cemetery. I always felt safe rather than creeped out. I've always wondered who the people were, why they died, what they're wearing, what their caskets look like, etc. Wish there were a catalog of some kind
That would be wonderful info!!
