Did you contact the person who “manages” the cemetery? There may be an old paper record of burials.
Somebody’s dog chasing something!…you don’t miss a thing! Thanks for taking us with you on this journey.
Searching family history is fascinating. Yesterday, I discovered my paternal grandfather listed in a census, under a different name than I had always heard. And, another child, listed for an aunt, that lived only a few days. Never knew that either. I also discovered my mother's brother was born in another town from what I always thought. She never once mentioned that. Once all the players are gone, it's a tricky business. Also, get this, when my great grandmother died (who I had the pleasure of knowing), she left behind 13 children, 93 grandchildren and 102 great grandchildren. I was 13 at that time. I'm 72 now.
I found on Ancestry that there was a discrepancy in the genealogy on my maternal grandfathers side because of how the G was written on the last name. Someone wrote it as a capital J. I did find the naturalization papers of my paternal great grandparents with photos. Now I know where my short height comes from. My dad was 6’1”. My mom was 5’4” I ended up 5’. 1/2”
Good luck. I'm going to ride along if you don't mind.
At least there are written records for ya. Us natives, it was all oral but it got disrupted when the white folks came and made changes abruptly. The old Indian census butchered the names they did not know the Navajo language. So going beyond 1800 is a blank
In regards to Baby E, oftentimes infants would be buried atop a grandmother/ grandfather's or great grandmother/fathers burial site. And few are marked as such…just family knowledge.
My maternal grandparents only have black slate over their graves as markers.
My husband wears my reading glasses all the time.. they have rhinestones on them. I loved hearing about your search for baby E. I’m adopted and am on a search for my birth father. Found my birth mother. She has already passed, I’m pretty sure my father is gone as well. I was given the wrong name of the man who was supposed to be my father, and dna clarified that for me.
Wow – enlisting at 74? That's awesome!
I'm so sorry you didn't find Baby E. I will pray you do someday.
Oh my goodness girl! I don’t comment very often but I do watch all the time. I watched this video yesterday and today I received a leaf from Ancestry. It was my 6x grandfather and had military records of him in the Revolutionary War, pretty cool! I know he ended in Tn but it didn’t go into much detail so I looked at his son and found another leaf ( been a while since I’ve been on the site) anywho his leaf was on his gravesite and the first word that caught my eye was Prospect! Girlfriend you know I had to come back and rewatch because I remembered you mentioning that word. Well he’s buried at Eusebia Cemetery in Prospect Tn. I suspect his father may be buried there as well. I wish my mother was still here to share this with her; she would’ve loved this. Lots of family ties in the Knoxville area.
Oh Patara, I've been doing genealogy for several years now. I must say it's the best thing I've ever done. I had so many questions about both sides of my family. My father died when I was young and his side of the family lost touch after mom remarried. Mom is long gone so what little she knew was lost. My mom's side is from Hungary so I had to learn to read Hungarian records. But from the little I already knew and help from genealogy sites (not just the big ones), I've been able to answer almost all of the questions I have had all my life. It's amazing , fun, thrilling, and bittersweet . Really makes you appreciate where you came from and how lucky we are to be living at the time we are. My great-great grandmother had 16 children (4 sets of twins, 2 tripletts, and 2 single births[family lore says she had 19 but I've only found 16]), only three lived to adulthood. I cannot imagine the heartbreak. Anyway, Happy discoveries!!
I've wanted to go on a Genealogy Road trip cause of hitting "Brickwall"s!!
My Mom's Mom(Grandma Lillian was closed mouth about her kin!
Thank you
I started my quest to learn more about my ancestors a couple years ago. It can get so frustrating at times. My grandfather came from Italy in the 1800s and changed his name. I keep hitting roadblocks trying to find what his name was before.
Does the church or caretaker keep records of who's where? It seems like that would be their main job. I have found relatives on findagrave. It has pictures of the marker or headstone, which is helpful. That's really neat how far back your relatives trace. Do you know if they traveled to the Americas from another continent? I know they were Cherokee, but I don't know if they originated out of Canada or another area. I learned last year that my paternal Grandmother, Great-Grandmother and Great-Great Grandmother were all born in a small village in Quebec where they were famers and skilled laborers. My Grandmother was born "deaf and dumb." That's what she was labeled her her whole life. She was sent to a deaf school where she met and married my grandfather who was also born "deaf and dumb." They were very poor, but raised two healthy sons who could both hear and speak. They never learned to drive and my Grandpa was a cobbler. He worked out of their basement. They had 3 house fires and lost everything 3 times before my Dad turned 18. Unimaginable. Then he was forced to leave home the day he turned 18 or they would both lose their social security. Much like your relatives, they all lived very hard, very difficult lives. 5 out of 7 children were born "deaf and dumb" in my Grandma's house. I guess that's kind of rare. I believe they all attended the same deaf school as my Grandfather and Grandmother in Maine, USA where they chose to stay and live out there lives.
My Irish-German neck gets red too for the same reason.
Could she have been buried then her mom buried where she was. I have heard of shared spaces with babies. Why were Baby E's parents buried separately?
I love your videos ! Patera .. you’re like a best friend ..
thank you for your advice and adorable personality 🙂
My boyfriend was from Tennessee and I’m from Los Angeles … he passed away last May and I find so much comfort hearing your accent and southern jokes and humor ..
I agree with all your thoughts on God and prepping 🙂
Girl! We might be cousins! My great grandaddy and grandma moved down east from Mecklenburg after they got married. She was Cherokee, Elizabeth (Wolf) according to the records. I'm loving looking into my history, thank you for sharing!
I have worked on my Family History a long time….. 50 years now. I have a great grandfather Joseph Heap Courtenay, who was born in 1846 in Versailles, Ripley Co, Indiana to John Courtenay and Morinda F Fisk(e). John and Morinda supposedly had 11 children. Morinda died in 1850 and family story goes that she died in childbirth and a few months before the 1850 Census was taken. I found the Father John Courtenay on the 1850 Census listed as a school teacher, living with a family. None of his children living with him. I found the oldest daughter who was married by 1850, still living in Indiana but in a different county. Living with the oldest sister and her family were 2 of the oldest siblings. I then find the next oldest sister living in a different county but living with a family who was the daughter of Morinda's mothers 2nd husband. Morinda's mother Elizabeth Jones died in 1849 while visiting Madison Co, Indiana at her daughter's family (Elizabeth J Fisk(e) and George Washington Heap) Elizabeth is buried in Madison Co next to 2 grand daughters of Elizabeth & George Heap. What I can not find is all the young kids of John Courtenay and Morinda Fisk(e). My Great Grandfather would have been 3 or 4 years old. WHERE are all those kids and where is the Baby born in 1850 his name was Charles. I found Charles age 10 living with his father and Stepmother on the 1860 census. The father John died in 1864 in Dearborn Co, Indiana. This is my one true brick wall is finding all those children.
Enjoyed the video.
Enjoyed the video a lot.
