STORY:
Stanford White was an architect. He was a partner in the architectural firm McKim, Mead & White, one of the most significant Beaux-Arts firms. He designed many houses for the rich, in addition to numerous civic, institutional, and religious buildings. Stanford's design principles embodied the "American Renaissance".
In 1906, Stanford White was shot and killed at the Madison Square Theatre by Harry Kendall Thaw, in front of a large audience. Thaw was a millionaire who had become obsessed by White's alleged rape and relationship with his wife Evelyn Nesbit, which started when she was 16, four years before their marriage.

The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.

Thank you for this. Stanford White was my paternal grandmother’s uncle. Her maiden name was White. This story has always intrigued me. I had no idea where he was buried. Oddly I could never get my grandmother to tell me very much about him.
You should do one on the Christine Jessop case from Queensville Ontario Canada. The little girl was abducted, raped and murdered in 1984 and left in a forest. The police found her body a couple of months later. For 37 years the murderer wasn't caught until just last year through DNA. The neighbour was originally convicted and charged with the crime and did prison time. The police thought he was weird so they pinned it on him. Evidently it wasn't him and the person who did do it wasn't even on their radar in 1984.
There was a movie about this called the girl in the red velvet swing. Also, Evelyn Nesbitt was the first Gibson girl. Thank you for showing us Mr. Whites grave and telling us the story. 😁
A 1955 movie"The Girl In The Red Velvet Swing'with Joan Collins,Ray Milland and Farley Granger is based on the White/Nesbitt/Thaw story.
I've been waiting for this a long time! I've been obsessed with this story for years! The talent of White, the beauty of Evelyn Nesbit - this story has it all! Reminder AND timer on!
They had a portrayal of Stanford White on The Gilded Age. Great show, love that time period
Such a fascinating story! Both Stanford White and Harry K. Thaw were creepy, in different ways and took advantage of Evelyn Nesbitt. Yet we can't deny White's talent and accomplishments as an architect. Love your comment that he helped himself- geez he sure did. I couldn't believe that outrageous old photo of Thaw in prison with all the creature comforts!! This guy murders White in a crowded audience of people and gets away with it. Evelyn was really beautiful but I imagine naive and I'm glad she moved on and continued her career. I noticed she had a son Russell. She claimed he was Thaw's son, but the family didn't buy it. I loved this visit to White's elaborate gravestone and the lovely ragtime piano!! So perfect Ron, loved this!!💙
Places to go to avoid legal responsibility:
I love the old photos you used of the characters in the story - especially the newspaper articles, creepy Harry in his prison cell, and of Evelyn in court!
One additional anecdote regarding Frederick Law Olmsted. He and his brother designed many residential subdivisions around the turn of the century. One such is called The Gardens, located on the north end of Pecks beach which is now Ocean City New Jersey. The Olmsted brothers aversion to straight or parallel lines today causes difficulty among the design professionals during routine survey work in the neighborhood. As an architect myself, I have received sealed surveys with parts of the property labeled " indeterminate" or "area in question". Thank you Fred Olmsted.
Looking forward to this. I'm in the emergency department with vertigo. Waiting for the doctor. Glad you are all here with me.
Ron I am in your age group. I love the sound of your voice and the way you explain things so well.
I loved this, Ron! Knew some of the details but it had been a while. I've seen Ragtime and there was a story on Evelyn or the era she lived in on PBS one night. I remember about the red velvet swing . This young lady was beautiful and I'm glad you mentioned about the vintage photos showing hair to be very dark, even if it wasn't, because I read she had copper tresses. She started modeling at a young age and helped the family with expenses after her father died. It seems she persevered even after all this scandal and confusion. Hate to say it but they were both a pair of creeps, even with White being a gifted architect, the husband looked as repulsive physically as he was in character.
I was surprised to hear that she lived until 1967! I surely would have loved to talk to her about her roller coaster of a life. Wise woman to pick love over money, after all the drama.
If you're interested in the story of Evelyn Nesbit, check out the book, American Eve, by Paula Uruburu. Evelyn lived in nearby Northfield New Jersey at the later part of her life. Her house is still existing. Fascinating Story. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for another intriguing story. My favorite highlights were; learning what you knew about LA cemeteries, and hearing a "registered architect" describe Corinthian ornaments as, "clam shells, flowers and vines and such" to us average folk! You're a gem.
What a story!!! The ladies & gents were so handsome them, and I’ve always loved their style of dressing back then. A beautiful Cemetery too. Each one of your stories are SO very interesting also. Keep up the fantastic work Ron.. you’re great at telling these wonderful old stories! TY so much for all you do for us!!! RIP Whites! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
This is a fun story to listen to, love hanging out with Scoby doo and the gang you are our Freddie ❤️💕❤️
I was obsessed with this as a Teenage years ago, Thaw has buildings in his name at the U Of Pitt, the family at least. I always remember there's always a Pittsburgh connection to that. And I still think that Evelyn was quite the Striking figure, you could understand why she captivated people and why all this happened. The Original Crime of The Century, until Summer of 94. Also have a book suggestion for you The Invention of Murder, by Judith Flanders, I think you would find it to your tastes. Bang Up Job as always Sir. Thank You and I appreciate your abilities!
Money doesn't make people happy, sane, right or of high repute. Criminals and perverts abound in the rich.
