Man cannot get enough of Yosemite! Lived there 30 years and watching this brings back so many memories. Still visit, though I stay in Wawona. Lots of history there too.
Hello. a savage here 😁 I enjoy your videos. I love the old photos of the time gone by era. The desert landscape, just like what we have here. same same, as we say here. thank you, Jeff. 👏
Good afternoon Jeff and Sarah, WOW! From all of California, there's two places my wife and I enjoy visiting; Monterey/Pacific Grove and, Yosemite National Park. We could spend weeks or months in either place if we were free from other obligations. We've visited the cemetery there numerous times and at first, I was shocked at the number of children's graves then thought of the hardships that had to be terrible for everyone especially, the children. Thanks for sharing another great and informative video with us. I cannot fathom the four day trip from the Central Valley to Yosemite when it takes us maybe two hours of leisure driving. Please tell Sarah to stay as she is, you two make a great team. Stan in Ceres
My uncle lived in the valley on and off between there and San Francisco, working for the NPS as a purchasing agent starting back in the early 1950's (before I was born). Many trips as a child, I was brought there by my parents and roamed the valley at will. In one trip, he arranged for us to stay in the Rangers' Club; such wonderful architecture. A later trip, he was able to get Ansel Adams to allow us to stay in his little house behind the gallery as he was friends with Ansel and Virginia; I was a bit too young at the time to realize what an amazing treat and privilege that was. His last stint in the valley, he lived in government housing not far from the graveyard and it was one of my 'haunts.' Years later, from 1979 through 1984, I lived in the valley, working for the concessionaire and moved up to retail management and had wonderful housing in a couple of cabins (no longer there) in Curry Village. While working there, I met one of my best friends from the Los Angeles area who turned out to be a descendant of James Hutchings (as well as having being adopted by one of the late cast members of the "Batman" TV series). My first early spring in the valley, business was slow and I was required to work in the Yosemite Village grocery store's attached gift shop; at first, I felt demeaned, given my usual position. One day I spied an elderly gentleman stroll in the back door... Ansel Adams on his last trip to the valley; he had come to see the dogwoods flowering one last time. He was extremely gracious. I introduced myself and reminded him of my uncle who he readily remembered; I thanked him for allowing my family, as a child, to stay in his house and we chatted for about 20 or so minutes. I feel I was also privileged to see the fire-falls before they were discontinued; at first, I was dismayed upon their demise. Looking back, though, the Curry meadows were trampled unmercifully as folk gathered there to watch them. For those almost 5 years, I was privileged to be able to rock climb, hike, trail run, backpack, cross country ski, ski mountaineer and travel in the back-country; I have such wonderful memories of those times, the places in the valley and throughout the park as well as the unusual characters I met! I was also privileged (ordered to by upper management) to attend (outside, of course) when Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip attended Sunday services in the chapel; I recall being a bit miffed as it was my day off and I would rather have spent it rock climbing; looking back though, fate dealt me a good hand having to attend! At the time, I was more impressed by all the secret service agents around in their suits, ear pieces and Uzis! Good times!
What amazing memories! I worked in the village store for 6 months in 1979. Perhaps we worked together back then. Living in Yosemite Valley was such a great experience!
Glad I found you on here. I love history and visiting cemeteries and lots of people think I am weird. I have loved visiting old cemeteries and reading head stones. One the of items on my bucket list is to visit Normandy Beach and spend the day walking among our Heroes.
I complete a bucket list item in the morning, going to Yosemite for the first time with one of my godsons. My plan was to watch all of your Yosemite videos this morning in preparation. Now I've one more. I'm glad the two of you are getting about making these videos even in your mourning. Thanks Jeff and Sarah.
Thank you for being our personal tour guide to astounding places! Whether we had been there or not, your detailed input sheds a new light on our history that is quickly diminishing by those who wear black hats! so again...Thank you Jeff and Sarah. You've created a library of historic people and places!
I'm born and raised in CA, now live in the gold country of CA, and have never been to Yosemite. Have been over the Tioga Pass, twice, but never made it into Yosemite. Will have to do it soon. Again, another great adventure with you two. Sarah, I love the critters too.
Yes you need to visit Yosemite although I think soon they will be requiring reservations just to enter. That should cut down on the crowds and jammed parking lots.
@@jbenziggy I think the crowds is why we have never gone, so we head for the Redwoods and Avenue of Giants. All the way up to Crescent City. My favorite trip.
Saw the fire fall in 1967, I was watching one direction that I was sure was correct and looked around and everyone else was looking a different direction so I looked too and there it was. Beautiful, even 53 years ago.
Hello History Hunters, Thanks so much for sharing and learning about the Yosemite Valley Pioneers. Wonderful story you put together. Have a great day 🌞
I have been to this amazing valley many times...climbing Half Dome and being married at the Chapel in the meadow. Never been to the cemetery but always wanted to pay my respects ! Thank you Jeff and Sarah for a lovely visit back to my favorite place. Now I can say I have been to the cemetery ! Best way to start my day is with a History Hunter video !! Loved the bird seed ! ❤❤
I Love the Yosemite Cemetery. I would wear my babies in carriers walking through there as Scott climbed the nose of El Cap, the face of Half Dome or some other craziness. It left me with tons of time to explore the valley for all its history. :) Thank you for showing this. Brings back memories.
Thank Jeff and Sarah for the B day shout out. You guys are so generous and just fun to watch. How fitting, we too love Yosemite and being so neighbors to Martinez have enjoyed the John Muir house many a time. Stef says thank you!
Jeff and Sarah, thank you so much for this episode. It brought back memories of my teenage years, when I would drive up into Yosemite in the middle of summer nights to escape the sweltering San Juaquin Valley heat. I would fall asleep just gazing up into the clear night sky.
Been having week long family camping gatherings (grandparent's, aunt's, uncle's) in Yosemite Valley for over 50 year's. Sometimes go skiing in winter. I never knew there was a cemetery there. Thanks my friend for the history lesson will visit on this year's trip and pay my respect's.
To me history comes really alive and refreshing again ,thanks too Jeff and Sara.The voices are calm and relaxing.The knowledge is in depth and facinating.All the videos that they are posting is so precious to me.Must say that the history of the old days from your beautiful country ,have always been a special thing for me.....Maybee one day i have a possibility too visit some of these historical places....Greetings from Fredd in the southern parts of Norway....Stay healthy and keep on your fine work....
Mark Bowen, and his Barnwood Builders, would know all about that unique structure.---I always think it's gratifying to hear birdsong, keeping the graves company throughout the years.---I've only been to Yosemite once, with Luther League, in the 60's. It was winter, and we got snowed in. All of us, in one large cabin, couldn't go outside, so saw NOTHING...It's likely I'll never return, so your visit today was meaningful.---And, very enjoyable...the two of you!
Really enjoyed this one Jeff. I will never see this place in person and I enjoy the way you narrate and tell the stories about the people and their lives. Sarah is so funny with the bird seed! You two are a great match for one another!
Very well done... it never ceases to surprise me just how much I don't know about places I've been. Then Jeff comes through and helps fill in all of those gaps! Great Vid!
Great video! Love the history of those founders and pioneers! Thanks for doing the research. Sarah, you are too funny, caring for the little critters like you do, (that would be me too!) You two make a great team! 👍💕
Beautiful! I was there just a few days before ya'll. It's my favorite destination for a day ride on my motorcycle. And I've always wondered about that cabin down in the Foresta valley. The cemetery I never knew about in all my visits. I'll check it out next time. And one of the names in the cemetery, Hutchins, is probably who Lodi, California named one of the streets that I travel on daily. Again, beautiful coverage and history presentation. 🏍💨
Hi Jeff and Sarah! Cant tell you how many times we have been to Yosemite and never seen the cemetery, and my youngest used to work in the park valley too. Wife and I were out in Modesto/Manteca last week. Each time we drove past the Mossdale bridge, we thought of of your video. I now have my oldest son hooked on your videos! Nice job on Mothers Day video. Was very touching, we all had tears in our eyes as we have been there. Cant wait for Sunday video!
My Great-Grandfather’s sister, Barbara McCauley, was the wife of Jim McCauley. Just outside of Coulterville, there is a place called Bower Cave, now owned by the U.S. Forest Service. It was a tourist attraction and stop on the first road into Yosemite Valley, it was called the Bower Cave Hotel. It was the site of a killing in January of 1863 by my Second Great-Grandmother of her abusive husband.
So many great stories come out of that graveyard. It’s a good way to dig up the history of Yosemite. I’ve never heard anything about the graves at Yosemite. Next time I go I’m going to visit the graves. Thank You guys.
Jeff and Sarah, I look forward to your videos every weekend, this was such a great episode with amazing details (as usual). I just wanted to thank you for the birthday wishes and for all of your wonderful content that you provide! What a great surprise! ♥️
We were so happy to give you our belated shout-out! Thanks for being such an incredible follower of our channel! We heard you like to watch our episodes when they come out and were blessed to hear about your liking of our expeditions! We appreciate your wonderful devotion to History Hunters!
Loved this one! Yosemite is so beautiful, but this fascinating look at the cemetery and the stories and photographs behind the inhabitants is superb. Thank you Jeff, and Sarah, I am so happy you found some wildlife.👌that black bear that close was frightening, and I cannot believe that crow crammed all those fries(?) in his mouth!🤣🤣🤣oh, and that hat would have been my choice, too!
thanks for a wonderful informative video on the lives of these Yosemite pioneers. often you wander through a cemetery and see names , and only imagine their lives and what they looked like. Your video brought all of this to life , their pictures and their personal history . alot of time went into presenting this , so I thank you so much for this.
Great informational video Jeff !! We visited the cemetery last fall and we will visit again in the fall. You have armed me with great information to take with us, THANKS!!
Stunning scenery Loved Sarah with her sneaky seeds And the history was amazing Sarah finally got her critter the crow :) Thankyou Jeff and Sarah for a lovely video x
I’ve been to Yosemite several times in my life but never saw the cemetery. What I remember most is the smell of pine needles. Thank you for sharing all the history behind Yosemite! You both are a blessing! 😌
Jeff, this was so interesting. The backstories of those interred in the graveyard, through natural and sad, untimely circumstances, give them their due. It's such a lovely area. I really enjoyed this, as always. I love the visuals of the past.👏🌳🌲🌿
The birdseed bandit always strikes twice.... ha, ha. Sarah has a good poker face. "Who, me, birdseed?" I was only an hour drive from the Yosemite front gate when I lived in Fresno and another half hour to the valley. Thanks for the history lesson. I saw a Lynx in the valley once and it didn't stick around for long. No time to get a photo.
I have wondered about this burial place since first discovery of it. Especially since there’s a Cavagnaro buried there. My grandmother’s family are Cavagnaro’s and they owned and operated a store in the town of Camanche, now under Lake Camanche
Interesting tidbit. A few weeks ago, while watching a random TH-cam travel video of Scotland, in the background of a scene, I saw a Muir conservation society sign. I can't remember the exact name of the society, but I checked it out online and it was for John Muir.
Oh !! This video is one of my favorite ❤ So much fascinating information about a beautiful beautiful place !! Florence's story was sad . I am sure she was an exciting and very likable person. The stories about all the people were just fascinating. 🤩🤩
Awesome Guys. As always an interesting Episode of HH. Great Footage, Story and Scenery. A perfect Watch for a Sunday Afternoon. All the best to you Guys :)
Once again, a beautiful informative video. I can understand how you felt about your late mother's dementia as my wife was diagnosed 3 years ago. She has been on medication since her diagnosis.
Awesome video guy’s! Loved all the background info and history on all the people and spots in Yosemite you discussed. It just looks stunning there! I hope to be able to visit one day! Take care guy’s and see ya on the next one! Frank from Philadelphia,PA.
It’s So nice how you Reveal our history keep doing what you’re doing you do a very wonderful job you and your wife God bless you and have a wonderful time out there this is Albert Toth from South Bend Indiana
James Savage is buried at Hensley Lake outside of Raymond CA. He was moved several times before being laid to rest there beneath an Italian marble obelisk.
Great history on each person interned in the cemetery, your research is appreciated. Yo Semite on the tombstone is something I would like to hear about, I had heard that pronounced like that many years ago when making trips to upper Yosemite for our camping trips. Thanks again for a class video.
Thanks for watching, Shane! For some reason the cemetery escapes a lot of folks but now there is that big sign to draw attention to it. The names alone will mean nothing to most people but once you hear their stories it is fascinating!
Sarah cracks me up with her birdseed. "How that birdseed get there?" LOL I've been there before but I guess I didn't see much because everything on this episode was new to me. Great job guys.
@@HistoryHunterSarah you can't please everyone Sarah. The same people that claim they love animals are the ones destroying more of their natural habitat to grow soy beans then pack it with artificial flavors and coloring to look like meat. Just ignore them.
Man cannot get enough of Yosemite! Lived there 30 years and watching this brings back so many memories. Still visit, though I stay in Wawona. Lots of history there too.
Very good show, one of my favorites. Was in Yosemite Valley, fall 2015 and changed my life.
Hello. a savage here 😁 I enjoy your videos. I love the old photos of the time gone by era. The desert landscape, just like what we have here. same same, as we say here. thank you, Jeff. 👏
It's really a treat to see your travels and listen to your words, thanks again Jeff & Sarah, save travels always !
Thanks for coming along with us Frank!
When I was about 7 we camped one year at Yosemite. I remember the fire falls. They were so beautiful. I'm so glad I got to see them.
THAT IS GREAT, KEEP IT COMING........I AM DYING FROM MULTIPLE SCLEROCIS, BUT I WATCH EVERY SHOW. GOD BLESS YOU.....
Thank you Jeff. Alot went on up there back in the day!

As a young boy, I walked through that graveyard everyday on my way to school: Yosemite Elementary.

Yosemite is one of my favorite places. I never knew there was a cemetery. Great stories. Sarah always makes things fun.
I just love the history behind all The Pioneers, RIP to them all

Hello Suzanne🌹. How are you doing?
Thanks Jeff & Sarah once again very informative & great episode well done 👍🏻😊😊
I like to feed birds too! That barn is so well constructed. Love the history information on these locations.
I Love the Yosemite Cemetery. I would wear my babies in carriers walking through there as Scott climbed the nose of El Cap, the face of Half Dome or some other craziness. It left me with tons of time to explore the valley for all its history. :) Thank you for showing this. Brings back memories.
That’s so funny, Sarah feeds the animals. And you do all the work.
That's my job as the semi-oblivious sidekick 🤪😁
Thank you so much for sharing.! My whole family watched this. We love Yosemite.! Great video! Looking forward to the next! 👍🏻🙋♀️⛺🎬🎄
Awesome to hear, Diana! Thanks so much!
California has so much history, and you have a wonderful gift of sharing it with us.
Thank Jeff and Sarah for the B day shout out. You guys are so generous and just fun to watch. How fitting, we too love Yosemite and being so neighbors to Martinez have enjoyed the John Muir house many a time. Stef says thank you!

Love Yosemite! My final request is to have my ashes spread on the valley floor. I’m sure I’m not the first nor will I be the last. Thank you!
Hey..... I thought of this FIRST..you copied me ..just like my BROTHER. Grrrr😡 😆
Sunday morning, cup of Joe & History Hunters 😁
9:19 My wife and I were married in that chapel 28 years ago this month. Thanks for another fascinating history lesson.
What a great place to be married! Thanks for sharing your connection! It is a beautiful location!

Glad you enjoyed it, John! Once you know their stories, cemeteries can be a fascinating place to visit and Yosemite is no exception!

Thankyou, and God Bless~
Great informational video Jeff !! We visited the cemetery last fall and we will visit again in the fall. You have armed me with great information to take with us, THANKS!!
Always a treat. Thanks!
Wow 🤩 a beautiful part of America
Thanks guys 😍 top work Jeff 👍 and Sara you are such a lovely person with your love of animals.
I haven't been there since 6th grade, a loooooooong time ago. Since I have a pass now I need to go back.
This was truly a fun video to watch. Thank you both for what you do.
Thanks for this .....most magnificent scenery!✌️👍
It really is!
Thank you, I really enjoy these pictures of Yosemite
Stunning scenery Loved Sarah with her sneaky seeds And the history was amazing Sarah finally got her critter the crow :) Thankyou Jeff and Sarah for a lovely video x
The bear was an awesome sight too.
Hey Jeff great video that's a beautiful place I love it out west so much history outthere you and Sara are awesome Randy from Kentucky.
Another great one! I really enjoyed this and the stories about Yosemite's early residents and explorers.
I’ve been to Yosemite several times in my life but never saw the cemetery. What I remember most is the smell of pine needles. Thank you for sharing all the history behind Yosemite! You both are a blessing! 😌
Jeff & Sarah, That was an interesting walk through the earliest history and people of Yosemite. Have a good day!
Beautiful scenery and great history. I'd love to go there some day(stuck in Ohio).
Visit Yosemite when you can...most beautiful spot on the planet! 😁
I look forward to your videos every Sunday morning. This one is one of the best. Thanks for the hard work!
Thanks very much, Mike! We appreciate great fans like you!

Love it!
Thank you so much for making these great videos!! Very enjoyable!!!
I have wondered about this burial place since first discovery of it. Especially since there’s a Cavagnaro buried there. My grandmother’s family are Cavagnaro’s and they owned and operated a store in the town of Camanche, now under Lake Camanche
I have a peddlers shelf that came out of a store in the town of Camanche before it was flooded.
Spooky histories, haunting places, great channel.
Interesting tidbit. A few weeks ago, while watching a random TH-cam travel video of Scotland, in the background of a scene, I saw a Muir conservation society sign. I can't remember the exact name of the society, but I checked it out online and it was for John Muir.
Great show, your Book Report gets an A plus! Sarah’s description of ‘ Lincoln Loggie thing’ is CLASSIC. Thanks for sharing- see you next week.✌️
So awesome I was at this Cemetery 25 years ago !
Oh !! This video is one of my favorite ❤ So much fascinating information about a beautiful beautiful place !! Florence's story was sad . I am sure she was an exciting and very likable person. The stories about all the people were just fascinating. 🤩🤩

Once again, a beautiful informative video. I can understand how you felt about your late mother's dementia as my wife was diagnosed 3 years ago. She has been on medication since her diagnosis.
Awesome video guy’s! Loved all the background info and history on all the people and spots in Yosemite you discussed. It just looks stunning there! I hope to be able to visit one day!
Take care guy’s and see ya on the next one! Frank from Philadelphia,PA.

Had no idea there was a cemetery in Yosemite. What a beautiful site for a final resting place.
James Savage is buried at Hensley Lake outside of Raymond CA. He was moved several times before being laid to rest there beneath an Italian marble obelisk.
Great Video!..Old photos are Amazing!... cemetery is Always interesting,.... Would love to visit that place, Someday.Tks,...
Great history on each person interned in the cemetery, your research is appreciated. Yo Semite on the tombstone is something I would like to hear about, I had heard that pronounced like that many years ago when making trips to upper Yosemite for our camping trips. Thanks again for a class video.
Really enjoyed this video.as always amazing scenery. Lots of love from ireland xx
Been there lots of times never know that was there thank you i will go there next time get up the good work.
Thanks for watching, Shane! For some reason the cemetery escapes a lot of folks but now there is that big sign to draw attention to it. The names alone will mean nothing to most people but once you hear their stories it is fascinating!
Thank you for the wonderful stories ! Just what I needed today.
awesome history lesson! that's much ms.sarah n mr. jeff! wow no bear kills.. ....happy trails always...
Been there as a kid. Thanks.
Sarah cracks me up with her birdseed. "How that birdseed get there?" LOL I've been there before but I guess I didn't see much because everything on this episode was new to me. Great job guys.
Jeff called me out. 😳😆 I wasn't trying to take heat from viewers. I managed to piss some people off. Hard to imagine right? 🤣
@@HistoryHunterSarah you can't please everyone Sarah. The same people that claim they love animals are the ones destroying more of their natural habitat to grow soy beans then pack it with artificial flavors and coloring to look like meat. Just ignore them.
