Caleb's sister, Ruth Cooper, widow of Henry Atlas Dearth, died of heart failure in a convalescent home in Virginia Beach. Don't know if she had children, but Caleb was survived by six grandchildren and one great grandchild (as of 1961). Perhaps some of them are sill living and tending to the family cemetery you found. And my educated guess is that baby boy is the son of Caleb and his wife, Mary Alberta/Albertha (Fooks) Cooper. Also, there is a biography on Find-A-Grave website for Rear Admiral Joshua Winfred Cooper. What an interesting family!
Wow I love these old homes I always think about what kind of families lived there and how it was back in the day..i want to explore but haven't got anyone to go with I don't live to far from Surry I live in Gates county nc keep up the awesome. Videos
And one more tidbit. A photograph of Caleb's now deceased daughter, Charlotte Milenna (Cooper) Young can be found on page 28 in the 1920 Yearbook of Wicomico High School, Salisbury, Maryland. She was very pretty.
Nice Video. Interesting to see, that there was a family grave yard there. I love walking through cemeteries and take pictures and videos. It is interesting to see, what kind of people that lived there before us !
The tiny stone marker is called a footstone. It is used to mark the end of the grave so that if someone is buried opposite of it in the future, the grave digger knows where the previous burial is so that they don't accidentally bump into the casket. Happens alot in older cemeteries, especially where there are unmarked graves.
Lovely old home and cemetery. A family once lived and laughed there. Just a mention, the little small gravestones that are that size, are most likely a foot stone placed at the foot of the grave. Most of the time they show the initials only of the person buried there.
KitschyTravels northern Virginia is supposedly the sweetspot along the east coast from what I hear. will be posting a video soon of the old Virginia Renaissance faire I explored yesterday. there's also an insane asylum in Petersburg to see if you're ever around that area. goodluck!
As an Australian, I find buildings this old so wild, my country barley existed at this point and you really don't find many buildings that aren't the grand sort still in tact from that time.
It is interesting that that place is so much more intact at attic stair & roof level. Unless there has been a flood, or herds of animals in there can only assume that the local morons have been in breaking up the lower floors instead of enjoying seeing an interesting piece of local history.
My extended family lives on their family plantation property in GA. The big house is in serious disrepair but all the slave quarters are in perfect shape because they were constructed with thick full beams. Also in Charleston you can find old slave houses with people still living in them.
I love old houses like this. It must have been quite a place in its day and to have a little cemetery. God Bless this place. Thanks for sharing!

1800s wow still standing well build
tHTA'S interesting to see old graves like that. YOu find them all around the country side
I'll never understand why/how, anyone can just, abandon such beautiful house's/mansion's like they do.
It is interesting that that place is so much more intact at attic stair & roof level. Unless there has been a flood, or herds of animals in there can only assume that the local morons have been in breaking up the lower floors instead of enjoying seeing an interesting piece of local history.
Where is that house at in Virginia, because I live in Virginia
Frankie Turner out in some part of surry if I remember correctly
It's amazing how clean the attic staircases compared to all the the rubble throughout the other part of the house
Is no one going to mention the flying saucer in the first room?
Debunked as a reflection off of a big circular piece of metal.
My extended family lives on their family plantation property in GA. The big house is in serious disrepair but all the slave quarters are in perfect shape because they were constructed with thick full beams. Also in Charleston you can find old slave houses with people still living in them.
That's awesome thanks for sharing
💚 the video! Keep them coming

good place to scrap the meat off a shin bone..ouchers

That was a nice home till you ripped out the screen

East Coast Exploring I just had to say that didn’t mean any thing bad.Just popped in my head when watching Vid.
@@ronnietravis7972 all in good fun my friend. Never a bad idea to clarify so I do appreciate that 👍
East Coast Exploring You really do a great job of getting out and finding old Antique stuff.Only a small handful of people care about that today.
Taking By The Sea
Hi this is a nice home but this is private property my father owns this place. I live in the house you showed. Please dont come back!
@@eastcoastexploring278 IT IS STILL STANDING. PRIVATE PROPERTY. NO TRESPASSING.
@@guyfromdadzoneyt5601 thanks for watching and enjoying our videos. Thanks for the views
Well done
I think it's the Rimshaw house. Old man Rimshaw put his hired hand in chains and then done away with him, with an ax.
nice area.
3:48 good call not having the behemoth go upstairs and collapse the second story
102Help that’s rude
Casa sinistra
