    Come with me as we take a walk in a cemetery that is hidden in plain sight. This place is just a short distance from many popular locations, but the history that this place holds is significant. Enjoy

    If "no one knows it exists", how can it be known to be the "most haunted cemetery"?

  • @catherineengle4196
    @catherineengle4196 Před 4 lety +38

    The ogles and Reagans were the original settlers there. If you drive down the roaring fork scenic drive you will see all their old home places. You can go in the cabins and I believe it is the first cabin you come to you can take a trail that goes in behind it and it will lead you to a creek and the old trough is still up that used to bring water to a small mill. There are waterfalls along roaring fork as well you can get out of your car and walk to. At the end of roaring fork scenic drive you come to the old mill on pigeon river. I love it there. If I could afford it I would live there. Lol

    Great video. The Ogle's /Huskey's were the first settlers. There also are a ton of Clabo's, Reagan's, Whaley's, Ownby's and some Conner's. There are some really good books the Great Smolky Mountain Society sells. I have one that is dedicated to tons of the family's it is super thick. It has almost everyone that ever settled and their families. I buy all I can on the history of the area, mountains and family's. I don't know if this particular book is available anymore, but I was glad to find it. You can get to this cemetery too from the Village, if you go up by the bathrooms you will see the road to it.

    Haven't seen this place in 10 years, I am from Blount County but most of my fathers side were Ogle's in Gatlinburg, after high school I lived in Gatlinburg while working for DW and I found this cemetery after some family research. When I was there I met the caretaker, the place was in much better shape and now its most likely only maintained by the families that are buried there that do come to visit.

    That was a very interesting tour . My mom and I loved to wander thru peaceful old cemeteries like this and read the tombstone epitaphs . This walk reminded me of those days. .i'm glad it is maintained and not left to ruin. The town has been growing up around it for hundreds of years ....so many tears shed under those old trees . . Thank you for sharing another piece of Tennessee .... sure miss my visits there. . Merry Christmas everyone.

She was an Ogle.Sadly her home and most if not all of the houses up behind the cemetery were burnt down during the fire a few years ago.

    PFC = private first class. I love old cemeteries, so thanks for this! The spit tree was amazing and the lamb stones for the babies were so heart breaking. Where my mail route used to be, there was a similar old hidden cemetery hidden between two apt. complexes. Lots of repeated names and old stones just like this one. In summer I used to drive back in there to eat my lunch and I would stop and spend a moment at this one little girl's headstone. It had gone a little bit crooked and I suspected no one probably visited as she had died in the 19th century, so I would always say a few words for her in my head.

    Great video as always JP! We have a semi-hidden cemetery over here in Ohio near us that is really spooky and we even caught a mist in one of our pictures above a headstone for two children! What makes it unique is, that, while US 224 was being constructed, they actually moved American Indian remains over to the existing cemetery. We have only photos, but we want to go get a good video when the weather improves.
    You are an inspiration to my gf Abby and I and one reason we have discovered a love for exploration! You are one of the best, in our opinion! (Oh and I love to eat too, so chow time is always enjoyable as well)

    When lambs are on top of a headstone (I'm at -16:14-) it means it's a child or children's grave.😢
    It looks like a very nice peaceful cematary. When I look at headstone I always picture the family's or friends that once stood at the gravesites,
    If you want to see a very sad head stone go to Baltimore across the street from the VA hospital there's a big church & graveyard, Poe & family are there.
    But if you go all the way in the graveyard to the other side of the church you'll see a woman's headstone. She had many children & most died in childhood or as young adults, not sure but I think she outlived her husband and children.
    There's also an Interresting grave where you look down & see a coffen & there's a hammock. I was trying to get EVPs, didn't get them but the hammock did swing back and forth when I spoke to the sprit.
    You can say it was the wind, but it is in a hole in the ground, it wasn't moving when I first got there and it was not windy at all that day.
    There are times when you can go inside the churches crypt that is under the church & those are very old graves. It wasn't open when I was there or I would have tried to film it. The next time I'm there I'll share what it looks like & also the Poe home which is very haunted.
    If anyone goes to the Mr. Poe's home you can hear readings of his storys, very Interresting.

      GhostCity Shelton Poe is buried at Westminster Hall, which is across from the University of Maryland hospital (main campus.) I work for the hospital, so I try and stop by to visit the Poes when I get a chance. Also, the cemetery is tiny, but fascinating for a historian like me because many prominent Baltimoreans are buried there and they built the church over the graves without moving them.

    Hi Jay ! The tiered area was constructed to keep the bodies from becoming unearthed due to erosion from heavy rains. Great find !

    And you are very fortunate to stumble upon a cemetery filled with a family that founded the town. A great historical find and good video. Two days old, wow that's the youngest with a tombstone I've ever seen. The split charred tree looks like a lightning strike.

    The cemetery is included in the Haunted Gatlinburg tours. I'm 55 and was taken to Gatlinburg at 18 months until I was in my late teens. then I took my parents at least once a year until they passed in 2007. My husband and I try to get to Gatlinburg every few years. I have known about this cemetery since I was a kid.

    wow those are really old burials.....1700's is only a few hundred years from our founding. So glad you are bringing their names to light after all these centuries. btw Merry Christmas to JP Videos et al. Hope you all have a blessed new year as well.

    Cemeteries I believe used to tend to be built on hills as it wasnt "buildable" land.
    Or rather easier to build on flat land.
    I am assuming the tiers because it was easier and made it easier to walk.

    Depending on if you had JROTC. You could all ready be above that by the Time you finished Boot Camp and AIT - oops Stephanie Luke's Mom
    JP- the Cemetery was there before the Tourist area. Way back walking the rivers and streams horse was the only way to Travel. People lived near water for a number of reasons. Didnt stay more than a few miles from home.
    Even in my "small town" 315 there are I believe 8 cemeteries

    At the beginning you walked by a young man's grave named Tate Marr .He was 18 and an employee of the Space needle at the time of the accident. Not sure of the details but it happened on the elevator that takes you up to the top of the needle.

      brenda branam Ya he was jumping from top of elevator to stair platforms and back on the space needle. Slipped and was cut in half. Very sad . Btw cemetery is not haunted. That place was a hangout for kids running the streets in Gatlinburg. I have slept there. Did a lot of partying in the mid 80s. It is open to the public.

    Seems to be an Irish cemetery. Most names including Reagan are Irish. Also founders of Gatlinburg were Reagan's, Bonahan's, and Ownbey...now back to watching.Yes I am not only a PA stalker but a cemetery stalker lol...Been sick so have to go back and watch more of your videos I have missed. Thanks for another great video!

    I'm guessing that the area wasn't built up much when this cemetery was established. I like cemeteries - they're peaceful and contemplative. I like reading the headstones and reading the names and dates. There is a small cemetery in rural northern Michigan where my parents are buried, including relatives from the Mom's and Dad's families. It's surrounded by Amish farms and is so quiet and peaceful. You did a really nice job documenting this and filling in extra info. Thanks again for taking us to another interesting and beautiful place, JP :-)
