- A Confederate time capsule was found at the base of the 106-year-old "Johnny Reb" statue in Orlando, Florida, as crews dismantled it following public outcry. This video was captured live when the capsule was opened In August of 2017. The capsule contained a variety of items, including:
A Confederate flag that some say was made from a tree that grew over General Stonewall Jackson's grave.
Confederate States of America dollar bills.
Newspapers, including the Orange County Citizen and the South Florida Sentinel from 1911.
A letter with the 1911 member roster of the Annie Coleman chapter.
Small pins with Confederate flag designs.
Waterlogged books and pamphlets.
Two carved artifacts, including a Masonic symbols.
The location of the items is currently unknown to myself.

Thank you Chris. Unfortunately this may be the only time anyone will see these things. We appreciate all of the work that you do on behalf of preventing our history from being destroyed.
Too many today don't realize that prior to the War between the States, we were a collection of States loosely linked together by the Constitution. After the War, we truly became a Nation.
The concept and controversy of loyalty to one's State versus loyalty to the country as a whole, was forever changed after the War, but prior to the War, that citizens were divided considering loyalty to their State vs Federal .
Many today like to call the Confederates Traitors, because they rebelled, and made a preemptive strike against the Federal Authority, they deemed a threat not only to Slavery, but to the Rights of the State to chart its own course. There were Northerners that went South and Southerners that went North. The issue of Slavery divided the country. Would Slavery have ended under Lincoln's Administration had the South not seceded? Maybe or maybe not. The Secession however, did force Lincoln's hand, and ultimately ended the institution in December of 1865 with the ratification of the 13th Amendment.
We're the Confederates Traitors? That's our 21st Century Value Judgement coming through. By that measure, so were the singers of the Declaration of Independence Traitors. They rebelled against the British Crown, who was the lawful authority at the time.
My point is it's wrong to place our current values over theirs. They believed in a cause and over 700,000 Americans on both sides, bled the ground red across battlefields to end an institution that was already on its last legs, to end the issue.
Having ancestors that fought on both sides of the conflict, and studying this period of our history, the question of Treason, becomes more opaque.
When I look at our over bloated Federal Bureaucratic mess we currently have, a mess that started after 1865, I have to wonder who really won the Civil War? Slavery needed to end, but the War started the Big Government problems threatening our Freedoms and Liberties right now.
It definitely seemed like they didn’t handle several of the items very carefully. Especially knowing the box had rusted through and the shape the painting was in on top of the box. Thank you for sharing the video. Very interesting to see what was inside the box.
It's ironic how we change. I realized as a teen the importance of saving newspaper reports of important events. I have the ones I collected in a big box where they aren't folded.
The recent 2024 assassination attempt is the first time I didn't even think of seeking out a paper. In fact, I would have had to make 140 mile round trip to get an actual newspaper.
Makes you wonder if all our history may eventually be wiped clean by a cyber attack.
Cool. Would love to see the johny reb statue ❤
I just feel these guys don’t actually care, it feels so heartless and fake.
Congrats on all the views! Kool Video!
Absolutely wonderful!
Thank you
Great work from everyone. ❤
Very interesting.
This is the most incredible viewing of the recovery...please do the opening of the envelopes, when possible. It's a piece of the Heart and Soul of our beloved South. Thank you.
Was the opening of this capsule done in some half assed garage?
Feels like it doesn’t it
The dude in the blue blazer didn't seem impressed. Totally blew right by the first lapel pin. What was it? Clear disdain.
I’m digging into it and to where everything has gone now.
They all seem to be incompetent for the task
I noticed this too. These people are soul-less.
I wish there would have been coins or medals! I am fortunate enough to have a Confederate Cross of Honor, I’m not even sure where it came from, it was passed on to me from my Grandfather! Thanks for the video!!!
They would’ve been better off doing that then paper. Even people back then should’ve known paper wouldn’t last long.
They should’ve just got the Lock Picking Lawyer to open the box.😉
“Nothing on one, nothing on two, a good click out of three, and another on four, and it’s open” 😂
Should have gotten the Lockpicking Lawyer to open it.
I feel like they were very rough and to quick to just start brushing and shaking things. Then again I am no expert but I have a box of my family's history from the revolutionary war to the war between the states and I am more careful with it, than they are. I am not saying they are wrong I was just cringing when he took that battle flag and just started dustin it.
Thank you so much for the content my favorite channel for sure.
I’m appalled by their treatment of these artifacts.
Omg I wanted to yell STOP, slowly back away from the box, Sir. And replace him with a more gentle handed person. Watching him just rushing through it all was giving me anxiety 😮
@@wakandaforever4291 LOL me too. I kept saying out loud - Stop! Just GIVE that to the girl next to you!
Should not have moved it!
Isn’t it destroying history? By drilling out a lock. ? the lack of historical too, as well as the box itself
This looks like it was filmed from a satellite, no detail
Thank you for publishing this piece of history 👍🏼. I imagine the artifacts are now on view and well maintained by a local museum.
I’m working on trying to find where they went now, it is my hope they are being properly preserved but my fear that they are not.
The confederate flag is awesome
What a great historical find! Thanks for sharing this video. It was exciting to see them open the box and remove each item. On the $50 note, Jefferson Davis is clearly seen. Apparently, Chicken & Waffles have been around for a long time💖
How about placing the piece on the table before dusting them off with the synthetic hair paint brush. Very dangerous for the artifacts.
This may be one of the things that bothered me most. Sweeping it all back into the box 🤦🏻♂️ was painful to watch at times
I have that same Confederate flag......the pole is actually a nail (sorry, a pin.) to me it looks like a modern nail like to hang a picture....but its actually a pin from that era late 1800's. I also had a lock of hair weaved into a bracelet a woman wore of her husbands hair while he was away at war. 2 Mourning medals and some papers from the Daughters of the confederacy. That is where the flag came from. My flag is in better condition....it's paper.
How awesome!
My lord, I’m appalled at the way this Man In Charge charges through the contents of the box like a bull in a china shop. What kind of historians drill through an artifact with the equivalent of a sledgehammer and then flip and flop the antiquities around with tweezers. My lord. What foolishness.
Ya seemed like the handler just wanted to get it done and move on with his day.
Must have been a blue belly 😂
Beautiful!
the asmr quality of this ads even more fun to the content 🎉
Love how he said "a flag" lol
Did he say it was “Lake Yolo” where the man self deleted?
Open the letter
I wonder if there's a Colt advertisement for the all new Browning Automatic pistol?
Anything in there say Trump '24?
lol🇺🇸
The one Lapel pin upon closer inspection read MAGA
@@user-fi2ix7mr6i heck yeah 👍🏻
😂
what is going through your heart lol what kind of bs question is that? this guy explaining and opening up the box was so hard to listen to, he seemed unsure of himself and just annoying. its history, you cant change it.
The whole report was aggravating.
To bad they hadn't invited galvanized metal a hundred years ago everything would have been preserved.
TRUMP 2024
how did he know a roster was in the envelope?
I think there was an inventory made and documented when the time capsule was originally buried.
dixie hoora
