    There must be some way of getting the "Rising Sun" to a historical society.

My community is mostly Danish descents and there beautiful carved woodwork above the door even on the barn.

    It's so sad to see beautiful structures, like the Rising Sun house fall to ruin. It's true that in only one or two generations a lot of places are abandoned because there are no family left, or they have moved far away, or just have no interest. I agree with some of the people here who have asked if there is some way that the Rising Sun motif can be saved somewhere? Thank you, Robert and Mr. Dan for not forgetting about this house and its glorious past.

I have read Sun symbolism, life, energy, positivity, clarity, confidence, power, peace. I have always wondered what the number of rays means. The OBF has 15, this house, many more.

    The House with Nobody In It
    by  Joyce Kilmer (1886-1918)
    Whenever I walk to Suffern along the Erie track
    I go by a poor old farmhouse with its shingles broken and black.
    I suppose I’ve passed it a hundred times, but I always stop for a minute
    And look at the house, the tragic house, the house with nobody in it.
    I never have seen a haunted house, but I hear there are such things;
    That they hold the talk of spirits, their mirth and sorrowings.
    I know this house isn’t haunted, and I wish it were, I do;
    For it wouldn’t be so lonely if it had a ghost or two.
    This house on the road to Suffern needs a dozen panes of glass,
    And somebody ought to weed the walk and take a scythe to the grass.
    It needs new paint and shingles, and the vines should be trimmed and tied;
    But what it needs the most of all is some people living inside.
    If I had a lot of money and all my debts were paid
    I’d put a gang of men to work with brush and saw and spade.
    I’d buy that place and fix it up the way it used to be
    And I’d find some people who wanted a home and give it to them free.
    Now, a new house standing empty, with staring window and door,
    Looks idle, perhaps, and foolish, like a hat on its block in the store.
    But there’s nothing mournful about it; it cannot be sad and lone
    For the lack of something within it that it has never known.
    But a house that has done what a house should do, a house that has sheltered life,
    That has put its loving wooden arms around a man and his wife,
    A house that has echoed a baby’s laugh and held up his stumbling feet,
    Is the saddest sight, when it’s left alone, that ever your eyes could meet.
    So whenever I go to Suffern along the Erie track
    I never go by the empty house without stopping and looking back,
    Yet it hurts me to look at the crumbling roof and the shutters fallen apart,
    For I can’t help thinking the poor old house is a house with a broken heart.

    I grew up in western Morris County (NJ). Our church sat on 40 acres, most of which was being leased to a local dairy farmer. Across the road, way back behind the pasture, there was an abandoned house that was smaller than the one in this video, but in about the same condition. In recent years I learned that it was our church's original parsonage, from before the newer one was built in the 1870s or 1880s. The newer one was never abandoned. The older one must be down to nothing by now.
    Anyway, it's awesome the rising sun was still there. It would have been interesting to send your drone up those stairs, if it can be controlled that precisely. I loved that church and cemetery afterward. I'll see if I can look it up on the website, Historic Rural Churches of Georgia.

    The female voice definitely said, "I disagree." I have always been skeptical about EVPs (because, come on, people tend to hear, or not hear, what they want, and there are usually multiple interpretations about what was supposedly said), but that is probably the clearest EVP I've ever heard. In fact, it immediately reminded me of the time the disembodied voice of a young girl whispered in my ear when I was houseshopping with a real estate agent. It was obvious when we walked in because lights all over the house were flickering, and the front door was moving back and forth "on its own." I'll never forget what the girl said. "You wouldn't like it here." NOT the stereotypical, "GET OUT!" Just, "You wouldn't like it here." The air was electric in that place. The whole time, the real estate lady just stood by that door that never stopped moving, her eyes wide in fear and amazement. Finally, she said, "Well, I guess this isn't the house." So we left, but I warned her when we set out that afternoon that I am "a sensitive," and, "If there's anything in any of these houses, I'll know it." And I'm pretty sure 'they' saw me coming too, because at first, the front door wouldn't even open, despite the fact that we had the correct key. Later, over the phone, I asked the real estate lady if that kind of thing had ever happened in all the years she'd been showing houses. She said, "Never." No one has to believe me, but that's what happened. God's truth.

    That was a great exploration of what was a nice home. Dan is always a great addition to your explorations, very knowledgeable. You made me wanna yell at you going near those steps, sketchy ain't even close to that. I had a ancestor settle in Talbot County. He was a Methodist minister and blacksmith. Also served as Grand Chaplain of the Grand Lodge of Georgia (masons). His home was listed as Plesant Hill, I imagine Dan knows where that was/is.
    Keep 'em coming Robert.

    That was so great! It continually amazes me at how many pre-war structures ya’ll have down there. Growing up in Henry co. & my grandparents all living in Clayton County, our area was in a direct path of Sherman’s terroristic tour so there are almost no pre-war structures. Jonesboro has maybe 2…one was a house being used as a hospital at the time so that is why it did not get burned. Hampton has only one house that I know of that is left from before the war. Hampton being my home town. I’m not sure about McDonough. But most all of the structures in that are can only be dated back to 1865 & later…most later. It took a few years for people to build back. My 4x great grand mother left a record of her dealings with Sherman’s terrorists in the Clayton County History Book. I’m so glad you were able to document that before it is totally gone!

    The Tingley family were gravestone carvers and my ancestors. Thomas Tingley (1667-1724) lived in Attleboro, MA and his house from 1723 still exists there. Other family members later moved to Providence and continued the trade. Samuel (1752-1846) his sons Silvanus(1782-1854)and Samuel( 1785-1869)were known for their fine carvings that included urns and willows. It was a wonderful surprise to see this gravestone in Georgia!

      Samuel showed under his father finally populated result in database. He is a 7th x 6 removed cousin from Harper/Collier in common. My one 11th Greats in common are over Peabody. I believe lower I had about a 6th Freeman/Robinson who recently were linked to their family or I'd have another cousinship show. Fun! Roderick was a 10th but did say Talbot, GA area...wasn't sure I had the right one.

    In anyone's honest opinion, what contributed to the house's current condition? Weather? Tornadoes? Ice storms? The walls are pretty impressive - strong. Maybe not the strength but the structure. It's old and worn (like me! ha!) but still has a lot of substance and historical significance.
    Now the church! The cemetery! Beautifully kept up.💕

    This is the second video of theirs I see and I must say it feels like a little vacation from the craziness of today. I enjoy the simplicity and craftsmanship of early home design and construction. My house was built in 1900 and it stands strong. Has had modern electrical upgrades and facade work but it is a pretty cool piece of history that I’m proud of.

We have one in Virginia that was on 3600 acres eight bedrooms three stories it was beautiful when I was a kid and now it’s so dilapidated you can’t even walk through it or fireplace in every room just a beautiful place the original owner built it in 1766 all brick but the roof and the floors are gone really sad

Looks more l;ike people took it off and laid it down, more than westeria taking it down..suxh a shame that is almost gone.

The history and the imagination runs to wondering "what happened here?" 😮 That tall chimney had a big hearth...looks like the original house was much sturdier than the additions the picture showed, I wandered if fire at the back of the house may have damaged it . Would also be interesting to do some digging and metal detecting.
