The General Cemetery Company of Dublin was established by an Act of Parliament in 1834 during the 4th and 5th years of the reign of King William IV. There were nearly 100 shareholders in this new company with an initial capital of £12,000, subscribed in £10 shares.This company bought the lands and house of Mount Jerome in Harold’s Cross from the Earl of Meath, John Chambre, on the 23rd January 1836. This is the reason why the General Cemetery Company of Dublin became popularly known as Mount Jerome Cemetery.
The first burial took place on 19th September 1836 of the infant twins of Matthew Pollock. Since then 220,000 interments have taken place over the last 185 years. The cemetery started at 26 acres and expanded to its present 48 acre size in 1874.
Because Mount Jerome became established during the Victorian era, the monuments you find here are a materialistic expression of the success of the Victorian middle classes from that period. As a result Mount Jerome Cemetery has one of the finest collections of Victorian memorials, tombs, vaults and crypts in Ireland.
Due to the declining burial numbers in the 1970’s, the condition of the Cemetery began to deteriorate as revenues fell. In 1984 it was put into voluntary liquidation. By the late 1990’s, it had fallen into a serious state of neglect with large swaths of the cemetery covered in overgrowth.
However with new owners in 1998 and the opening of a Crematorium in 2000, revenues have recovered and the Cemetery has undergone a complete reversal of fortune. The ongoing funds provided by the Crematorium have afforded the Cemetery the means to put in place a proper maintenance program to prevent it falling into decline again.

I went back to see the skeleton, and like the way you freeze framed and zoomed in, that was pretty epic!!!! Quite a find, quite a find. Well done 👍
Thanks Ron for your help and support, you'll never know what it means to me ❤
Hello Ron, I am a subscriber to your Channel as well...I love how both Sue and you bring back the history of those who have gone before us...as well as, the beauty of these amazing masterpieces in stone, marble and granite. To me they are as priceless and as beautiful as any Rembrandt or Leonardo da Vinc...Thank you BOTH for letting us come with you ❤
Thanks Karen, yes they are work of artists, someone said its like a museum of art❤
Karen Crawford I Second That Emotion 🎯✌🏻💫💕🦋Both A VeryVery Talented Storytellers and Keep Us Interested till The End💕🧐✌🏻💫
Thanks ❤️
There's something about the old headstones and monuments that modern stones just cannot hold a candle to.
I agree, no tools just a hammer and chisel and one man working hard each one is unique 🥰
Gorgeous and surprises around every corner. I bet you were just so excited and didn't want to leave. That skeleton, was a great find! Thank you for taking us.
Oh my, did I fall in love with this place ❤
I heard the voice as well. I really like the way they built vaults with doors like row houses. I've never seen anything like that in America.
I loved them too Sandra ❤️
I was struck by that as well. As someone who grew up in a rowhouse, I can tell you that these are preferable - no noisy neighbors! 🤣
Haha Jim definitely a quiet row of homes ❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards No such cemetery townhouses in Hong Kong!
For anyone else wondering, esquire after a name, meant a landowner, or someone of the English gentry who was just under a knight. In modern day a lawyer can have that after their name. I had to look that up. Great video regardless of the wind Sue! Love you showing us a little of Irish history. Just love the vaults.
Thanks for that crayzeebee ❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards how would I find out where a certain grave is in Mount Jerome as I think my Grandfather Patrick Hogan is buried there He was a Guard in Dublin Police died in 1979 Any info you good give me. Much appreciated from Theresa
I'd start with find a grave and if no luck there I'd try find a map or ring mount Jerome directly they might have the records for everyone there hope you find him ❤
Thank you I was wondering about that
My father and brorher have esquire after their name,they lived in Sweden.
What an amazing place my eyes didn't know where to look must of been hard for you as well
Oh Hazel I just wanted to stay there so much ❤❤
I'm just gobsmacked with this one. Thank you for slogging through wind and rain to share part of your bucket list with us all Sue. Deb.
Thanks Deb, I am going back for sure ❤
Thank you for showing us this incredible place. We don’t have cemeteries like that in Texas. I didn’t mind the wind, it added to the atmosphere and seemed as though I was actually there. Such masterful stonework. I wonder if the skeleton was exposed simply because the coffin rotted away, or someone disturbed the crypt? Unusual to see so many recent burials intermingled among the very old graves. I guess they have records to know where there is still empty space. We should pause and remember those who came before. These were the Victorians who in many ways laid the foundation to our modern world. Requiescat in pace.
This place blew my mind, just amazing and I'm certainly going back ❤
there are some amazing cemeteries in Galveston
It's not strange outside of North America for a family to reuse the same funeral plot after 20 years. The remains are often respectfully re-burried in the soil of said crypt when it is opened and then the next coffin goes above. Often it's wgy a lot of crypts are large plots or very deep so there is space for the next. The life expectancy was 30-50 only 100 years ago and people were not preserved and embalmed the way it is done in North America so a body can decay within 20-25 years. I think there is 17 years between my grandmother and her uncle who was beneath her. He was at least 15ft down. Granny is at 9 ft. There is space for 1 more if one of my aunts pass. Grandma was 96 at death and my aunts are in their 80s (14-17 years older than mom) and they are widows. I found it shocking when I first found out but really, we don't last forever so it isn't that strange.
Thanks for sharing
It always fascinates me who they were, what they did in life, we’re they good or bad. I would just like a conversation with some of them.
I'm a new subscriber due to Ron from "Faces of The Forgotten", (Thanks Ron!) I LOVED this video and what a find. You really captured this cemetery well. Look forward to watching your other videos. Greetings from South Carolina! :)
Thank you Paige, great to have you here ❤️
@@SerenitySueGraveyards Thanks so much for the warm welcome! :D
I'm delighted ☺️ ❤
What an amazing place, I could get lost in their for days. So beautiful.
God Bless Serenity Sue and
Irish eyes.✌&❤
Thanks so much ❤️
Beautiful old cemetery. Alot of prominent people placed in the masoleums..I heard my great Nans last Irish name in this one and speaking of that,I heard as everyone did that man's voice .eerie. Thankyou 💜❤️
Thanks Toni, oh that's so nice you heard the Surname ❤
JUST Amazing so do lookforword to your videos you bring people stories ALIVE thank you so much for taking us along 💟💟💟
Thanks Mary ❤️
What amazing history you are sharing with us. We live in the State of Arizona in Phoenix. America is such a young country compared to Europe. My wife and I went to Italy this past July for 2 weeks. The customs in Europe are so much better then in America. I am so impressed by the love and respect you have shown too these final resting places. God bless you.
Thanks Jim, wow Italy I'd love to go there, such a beautiful place ❤️
The carvings on the stones and monuments are absolutely gorgeous. I could stay in there walking around and reading stones forever. Next time I'm in Dublin I need to go there and look around. Thank You For Sharing as Always
Oh do Tracy, its absolutely amazing 👏
@@SerenitySueGraveyards yes its a must the next time I go. I did go to the cemetery with the family there but it was a small one and I dont remember where it was ??
OMLord ...can you imagine sitting comfortably in your home and hearing that bell? That would scare the bejeezus out of me...lol. Thanks for taking us along!!
Not sure I'd be too eager to answer that bell either lol
Sue, that was a great video on such a dreadful day too. It was lovely to see Christmas wreaths on many old graves. It's nice to see that there are still people who remember them. I recently found the grave of family members who died long before I was born. The last interrment was in 1935. None of the older generation of my family who knew them are alive today so I placed a wreath on the grave on Christmas Eve and I'll continue to so so
That was lovely Damien, even a visit to say hello remembers them ❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards Absolutely Sue, and that's why I think what you're doing is so important.
Thank you 😊
Thank you Miss. Sue and Irish Eyes.
The audio wasn't bad. I wish the weather had been better for you.
If I have 'Audio Difficulties' I turn on CC. Some of the words aren't correct (fault in place of vault)
As a native East Tennessean (USA) an accent can change the sound of a word---trust me--I have an accent!
Yours is lovely and I enjoy all your videos. P.S. I found you through Mr. Ron at 'Faces of the Forgotten'.
Thanks so much Lavonne, appreciate your comment ❤
Some of those headstones were beautiful. Thank you ❤
Thanks Denise I'm still on cloud 9 over this place ❤
Hi Sue what a great adventure just thought I’d mention when you ended the tour of the cemetery ended on an interesting sarcophagus look like an arc with a Jewish star on it never saw that before thanks again.🇺🇸👮🏻♂️
Irish eyes has a video up and he shows that very monument up close, I thought David's star? Very unusual with the 4 cherubs around the top ❤
Sue
I am from Hershey, Pa USA. I LOVE YOUR BROUGE and have found you on TH-cam and love what you are doing in your part of the world. Love the architecture of some of the building and gravesites you have found. I will keep on watching. Betty from Pa.
Hi Betty, thank you so much, delighted to have you here ❤️
Just amazing Sue and Irish eyes, you brought so many memories back to me. The voice, the skeleton I wasn't expecting, what a find 💀👻
Hi Helen, who did I show that you knew the chat moved so fast?
What an awesome place. I could walk for miles. The skeleton was something else. I really enjoyed this video and I have no doubt you would hear ghostly voices in that place. Rest in peace.
Thank you ❤❤ I'd really love to live nearer for a beautiful walk every day
@@SerenitySueGraveyards I wished I could walk there every day also!
As I watched, the Lord pointed out the message in the Honorable John Massy's inscription: Revelation 14:13. "I heard a voice from heaven say, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.” “Yes,” said the Spirit, “let them find rest from their labors, for their works accompany them.” What a lovely epitaph! Thanks for being His messenger, Sue! Bless you for persisting, despite that wind!
Thank you Jim that's beautiful 😍
Hi Sue when I go back to Dublin I will be definitely checking this cemetery out, most appreciated for the great video 👍🇮🇪☘💚
Brilliant Mark, it's just amazing ❤
Wow! The Irish know how to lay their loved one's to rest! Beautiful ! Your # 1. Brrrrr! Get out of that cold weather!
It was cold but I didn't care, was more worried about the horrible audio from the wind ❤
That was just amazing. So much beauty in that great place!
It's just stunning 😍
I’m a funeral director but still find this fascinating
Oh wow, that's a job I'd like, that or a mortician ❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards preparing the deceased is satisfying. After seeing them look not so great from a hospital mortuary. It’s a super rewarding job I love it
@@SerenitySueGraveyards could you cope with children and babies Sue? I certainly would be too emotional
Hi, I've found so many and it breaks my heart so much, I've cried, I've left not wanting to leave. It's the worse pain anyone should ever feel
It’s wonderful to think of having a vault for the family. No one can forget where you’re buried!
That's so true..all together forever, our graves in Ireland usually contain all family too
Sue, this is a stunning cemetery. As always thanks for the walk 🤗🤗😘
Thanks ❤️
What an amazing cemetery to visit. Kind of freaky to see an open casket and a skeleton. You can’t control the wind Sue. Thank you for sharing this video. The monuments are so beautiful.
Thanks Carol, I'm going back for sure ❤❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards summertime will be even more amazing.
Can't wait now ❤
What a hauntingly beautiful cemetery! Thank you for braving the weather to bring us this episode ❤️
Thanks Garry ❤️
Hauntingly? No pun intended I'm sure.
@@captain007x actually, I didn’t…but now that you mention it 🤣🤣🤣
Love this place Sue. What a great job. 👍. The skeleton 💀 was amazing.The headstones are outstanding.. Just beautiful. Thank you . God bless.
Thanks Donna ❤️
I keep being amazed with all the content in Ireland. Please don't get sick walking
In the cold rain .
Thanks Tom, currently have a chest infection, go figure with the weather here ❤️
What a brilliant cemetery! Great job as always Sue! Thanks 🙏🙋
Thanks Prissy❤
Well done Sue They say here as well happy is the corpse the rain falls upon The day my brother was being buried the sun was shining all morning and then as they lowered the coffin the Heavens opened for the rest of the day Looking forward to more episodes 🍀🍀🍀🍀
Wow ❤
That is an awesome cemetery. And, yes, I could hear the man's voice as well! Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks for watching ❤️
Seems to be such a wonderful place. I imagine person could visit many times and still not see the whole cemetery. As usual thank you for sharing ❤️👍🏻👵🏻
I was thinking the exact same you could do it every day for a year and not read them all ❤
Hello Sue. What an amazing videos you had made. Such a beautiful scenery of the cemetery in Ireland. Keep up the good work and stay safe. From Sarawak, Malaysia. 💝💖🙏🏼
Thanks very much ❤️
What a fabulously beautiful cemetery! It is truly a spectacular place to see. Be well and be blessed. Thank you ever so much for sharing this with us.
Thanks Timothy ❤️
This is an amazing city of the dead! Beautiful sculptures. Thank you for braving the elements to bring us this. By the way, my ancestors are from Dublin, and Cork.
Thanks Shawn, it was beautiful 😍
That is definitely a city of the dead. I am overwhelmed sitting here listening and watching you go through it. I have been to many large cemeteries but not with the diversity that is in this one. I heard the male voice when you were filming but I thought it was just someone nearby. Oh my goodness, this one would take forever to explore even in nice weather. Thank you for taking us with you!!!! Loved it!
Oh I just fell in love here 😍
@@SerenitySueGraveyards I totally understand!!!!!
Amazing Sue! The audio wasn't bad at all. Thank you it is so amazing to see so much history. Ireland is amazing!!!!
Ireland is amazing and I'm just loving it all ❤
Georgeous cemetery. Thank you Sue
Thanks Connie ❤️
There is a huge cemetery up north in Derry near the Creggan part of the city that always fascinated me as a child as we could see it from where we used to play near the city wall in the Bog Side. I had never actually been inside it until a few years back when my sister and I went over to visit our relatives who still live in Derry. We had lots of questions to ask about our grand parents (my grandmother died the day my mother was born so we never knew her) so they took us to visit their graves. It is so beautiful there and so peaceful. I hope to go back again some day to spend more time exploring it. Loved your video and look forward to seeing more.
Sounds beautiful, I hope to visit the North of Ireland too 😀
My grandparents are buried here. This video brought back memories of running around the graveyard with my cousins and daring each other to look into the crypts. It's an amazing place to visit. Keep up the good work 👍
hi Alan, this is so nice to read and I'm very happy this brought back some sweet memories
Love your vids Sue the Mausoleums were stunningly beautiful amazing monuments headstones Ireland has incredible cemetries💗
It was just amazing ❤️
That was awesome. 👍💯💜👏👏👏🤗. Thank you Serenity Sue. There is a lot of Beauty there. From the ones that look like rows of tiny houses, to the Beautiful Sculptures. It's easy to just spend hours there on a good day. Yes I heard the voice.saw the skeleton. It's like no way. That's not something you see everyday. I can see the love the famlies put into their loved ones final resting place. Sad now we just get a flat marker. I'm enjoying your videos.👍. Light,love,respect and positivity always. Neita james. 🧘♀️✌🕯🦋🌠🌻🌷🙏🙂👋.
Hi Neita, wasn't the place stunning❤ I was so over joyed to be here, rain didn't put me off but I'm going back !!
The Graveyards and cemeteries of Europe are so different from the North American equals, almost every available space is used up there, and the ages of the markers , stone, plaques etc. vary from hundreds of years old to basically brand new. I went back and listened to the sound of the man's voice as you looked in on that tomb with the large circular openings in the door, and I can't make out what he was saying, but I don't think he was happy you were looking in. Sometimes out equipment can catch the voices of those who still reside on Earth, and they usually are not the souls of the departed, but are of those who were cast out of heaven for rebellion. Whether it is by accident or deliberate those sounds usually are not pleasant. I've heard some of them and they are decidedly unpleasant for me.Mostly because I know too much about them to be comfortable. That is why the Lord tells us "Stand ye therefore in holy places and be not moved until the day of the Lord come" because those spirits cannot follow us into holy places, and why we need to make out homes holy and dedicated to the Lord and his Gospel, so it can be a sanctuary for us in this world.
❤❤❤
Stunning and amazing cemetary, Sue. I appreciate your effort in such bad weather! Thank you
Ah thanks 😊
Wow! That's a great picture of the skeleton. I'm happy to see see that no one broke in and disturbed the remains. I also have to point out the amazing tree's. It's funny how the bodies in the old days are above ground. Here in America, NEW JERSEY there is a cemetery that only will bury a body that has not been embalmed and no coffins .
Steelmantown Green burial preserve. Check it out sometime. It's very interesting. I may look into resting there when my number is called. Anyway great video. Peace out😚
Thanks Joan, I actually have a video here on our own natural burial ground and it's beautiful 😍
Amazing walk. Thank you Sue.
Hi Shantibel, it was unreal, I certainly fell in love here ❤️
Amazing video Serenity Sue. I could hear that EVP as well. The one with human remains was something else to see. Great job!
Yes! Thank you!
I loved this cemetery!! Go back on a nicer wind free day and do again, please!!!
That's my hope Carrie, after travelling over 2 and a half hours I was so upset the day was so bad but I'm definitely going back ❤❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards it was still awesome!
What an amazing place! The wind and rain don't detract from its beauty, for sure.
Hey Bill,not at all, I was super excited to visit here
Wow! That's alot of headstones
The place was enormous ❤
Another beautiful cemetery, and what a find with the skeleton!! Well done x
Thanks so much xx 😘
That's a huge cemetery!!! And so many beautiful markers.
Thanks for sharing and God bless. Please take care.
Thanks Nancy ❤️
Seeing this a year later and amazing size cemetery and all the beautiful masoleums, stones. Endless.
It sure is
Amazing cemetary tour thank you for taking the time doing this
Thanks for watching ❤
While all the monuments are outstandingly beautiful ,certainly more ornate style ,than I have ever seen in my life before, I am also interested by the paranormal, and the fact that the mausoleum you were looking into had no discernible coffins, yet I too heard the men talking together while you stood there alone. Would there be any chance of you and Irish Eyes visiting it together and asking who was talking etc?
And the grave showing the very ancient skeleton seemed a wee bit strange as he surely wasn’t buried like that! So his remains have been disturbed and the lid left open, maybe he would have a word or two to say about that! Just a thought..not wanting to upset anyone, but you know Spirits still visit their resting places from time to time. Gorgeous video Sue, far too much to include in one go. Some fabulous amounts of money have been spent over the years to pay for such fantastic creations in memory of loved ones.
Thankyou Sue!
Much love and hugs
Helen 🙋♀️🙋♀️💐👏🏻👏🏻 xx
Hi Helen, yes strange about the voice, I heard nothing at the time but clearly in edit..its quiet a bit away from us but I'd love to visit again some day, it's so beautiful 😍
Very large cemetery with very interesting and beautiful monuments. I only hear or see things on your channel and another. I firmly believe it is the respectful approach you both have. Neither of you instigate anything. You do a fantastic tour! (Irish Eyes too!)
It was a stunning cemetery, can't explain the voice but I can be 100% certain no one was around me as I'm fairly shy filming around others so I'm curious as to what it said or what it was..I do love taking a peep inside mausoleums but that skeleton was a super find ❤❤
@@danjames5552 nothing wrong with walking on graves! That was a no,no to my grandmother and her generation. That was a very long, long time ago! Many people walk on graves when they trim the grass, place flowers etc. What is disrespectful are people who steal and damage head stones, flowers, etc. Stealing is very common! Bones, so what! Go to a museum and you will see bones. Everything with these two is “beautiful and Rest In Peace. They immortalize some who are long forgotten. I worry more about drunk driving, school shootings, etc. I so very much enjoy their videos and I am close to “the stepping off point”
The universe is big and the souls of these departed have long left
Wow Liz, you go!!! ❤❤
Think Liz has said exactly what I was going to, by the way Dan, I walk on the kerbing, occasionally I step inside them but I also have a gimole which allows a long reach, those bones are there to see, I didn't break nor touch or harm anyone, now I suggest you either not watch or watch my videos a little more, I am very respectful and speak the names of those long forgotten, have a blessed day ❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards ❤️
Hi Sue, love your videos! What an amazing cemetery. So many of the Irish last names I recognize from people who live here in the United States.
Wow Pam, that's really cool ❤
What an amazing cemetery!
Awesome job Serenity Sue.
Thanks very much ❤
Wow! Amazing video and place. So different from the cemeteries you find in the Midwest USA. What a beautiful memorial to countless souls, thank you for sharing.
It's a gorgeous cemetery, so much to see here ❤
Very cool find on the skeletal remains Serenity Sue. I love the old cemetery and what it has to offer to the living ☠️
It's just stunning, I'd spend my days there is I could and then after that I'd be very happy buried there ❤
absolutely beautiful and well kept
Thanks so much ❤
What an amazing cemetery! Between you and Irish Eyes, you both got some awesome footage! Heard that voice as well, but can't understand what he's saying. Wow!!
Thanks Julie ❤❤
Just amazing sue ! The wonderful history your capturing and sharing , God Bless you ,I so appreciate you ❤️🙏🇨🇦
Thank you kindly
Truly just amazing!! Thank you so much.
Thanks Suzanne ❤️
Oh wow, Sue! Everything there is amazing, including the shapes of those trees! Some of the monuments are breathtaking. Those views outweigh any wind. Thank you so much for sharing an area I’d otherwise never get to see. ❤️
Thanks Pam, this place is stunning, every turn is very different, you'd easily get lost going around here ❤
Thank you for this amazing tour. I hope you don't become ill after getting soaked.💕
Thank you xx 😘
Just wow. A skeleton, a voice, beautiful everything’s. How great. Thanks for taking us all along. Thanks @irish eyes too. Angels are super cool…man I see exactly why u guys didn’t know what to say from home “live”
I'm in love with this place and I mean it, how lucky are those who have this place to walk through daily 💖
WHAT A GORGEOUS CEMETERY AND TO SEE AN OLD SKELETON WAS QUITE SOMTHING
THE MONUMENTS ARE GORGEOUS. THANK YOU SUE❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you ❤️
You have nailed it again Sue. Sorry i didnt comment on the mummies, but i was missing my keyboard and just got another wireless one, i am so proud on how you made this channel into what it is. the content is fantastic as usual and allways so interesting, Thank you for yet another fantastic Voyage xxx.
Tom, will you email me about the forgotten sailor please, by the way Thanks Tom for being here from the start ❤❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards of course i will, give me a few days to get what i know together or, just look up the anadora star, ship and the bodies found, then look a bit deeper as he had no name for years and i think ballycastle, had a service and got him a proper headstone etc, and recognised xxx. He was the last body found.
Brilliant thank you ❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards and i have a menu from the ship, and lovely pics of luke kellys banjo if you need them as prop pics LOL, all that jazz LOL xxx
I'm doing a video on luke Kelly's as I found his grave eventually maybe the photo would be an added bonus to the video ❤
Wow! I can clearly hear the voice.. I need my headphones on to see if i can make out what he is saying..
Its odd that your camera was acting up just before the voice!
Awesome catch of a possible disembodied voice..
Oh yes, it was being funny, I'd love to know what he's saying ❤🤔
I'm working on it for you..
I've been a paranormal investigator for many years.. I found this very interesting.
It's clearly male..
@@SerenitySueGraveyards ok.. are you ready for this? The male voice is definitely an intelligent spirit. They were either talking directly to you or to another spirit. The male voice seems to be saying, "Who's that looking"
I'll clip the part later just tat one piece see if we can figure it out I'm so intrigued 🤔 👀
@@SerenitySueGraveyards we already figured it out!
The voice is saying "Who's that looking"
I am new to your channel and I can not stop watching, this is a favorite video of yours so far. So much love in that cemetery. Thank you for sharing and showing what you could inspite of the weather ❤️
Hi Kimberly I absolutely adore Mount Jerome, I have 2 videos from here, one more recent and on the opposite side, so slightly different. Yes the weather was horrible that day but I've since upgraded my mic too so now it's easier even in the worst weather, thanks so much for being here 😀
What an amazing cemetery, well done Sue.
Thanks Ronald ❤️
Oh Sue! Sue! Your driving me crazy with the frustration of not actually being there with you! Your saying out aloud , what I’m thinking! “ oh! Wow! Wow! WOW! Just look at this!!” You may not realise how lucky you are, to be surrounded by such beautiful graves, superb masonry, and the dates! Going back,back,back! How lucky are you! Just soooo very grateful that you share as much as possible with us!.. even some of the little hidden gems of grave yards, quite overgrown, where you have to traipse across muddy fields to get to, just fill me with excitement! One place in particular,overgrown with brambles, making me want to travel over with strimmer ,secateurs, and slasher to get to those 1600s graves…where some lovely person had made their own private pilgrimage leaving holy water and pottery angels on accessible graves, abd wooden owls, wind chimes, gems etc under some boughs, thoroughly fascinated me, and I wanted to join you and Irish Eyes, as you seem to find so many truly beautiful statuary, and such old graves! Here in the U.K. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any so old, or so beautiful. I AM subscribed to your page Sue and can honestly say it’s been one of the best things I’ve done so far this year, and would seriously ask other viewers to subscribe to Sue’s page too. When you think of the miles she has to travel ( petrol costs) research time, making sure she can care for her family during her times out too which is always a problem, and getting special permission to access some of these places. It all takes a lot of her time and wear and tear,plus fuel etc…so please help her if you can. That’s me asking…not Sue bless her.
I wish she could do a raffle or something,the winner getting to spend a day with her.,,that would be fantastic for people as keen as myself and Sue!
Dream on Helen! Sigh! Thankyou again both of you..,Sue, and well trained Irish Eyes, keeping out of shot, but so reassuring knowing he’s with Sue, just in case she twists and ankle or similar. Stay safe, keep doing what you do so brilliantly! Happy Valentines Day next mon 14th!
Much love and hugs from Helen in U.K. 🙋♀️😘😘💐💕👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😸🌹Xxxxxx

Amazing and beautiful cemetery! The cross with the roses and bow is gorgeous. There are so many unusual headstones and mausoleums here. ❤️
So many different monuments I loved them all feel blessed to have visited but I will return ❤
Anyone here ever explore laurel hill in philly? That’s a huge gorgeous cemetery. This channel has inspired me to go back to a cemetery in perkiomen I haven’t visited in 10 years. Lots of early 1700’s stones there.
Oh definitely do
Thanks so much for covering this lovely cemetery! I could hear despite the continuing wind. I was fascinated by the skeleton, seemed to be lying at rest. Maybe the coffin disintegrated over time ? And yes, I could hear the male voice, I wonder what he said?
What a amazing cemetery. The head stones are amazing sue. Great find. 👍🏻🙏🏽♥️
Thanks Dena❤
That place was so beautiful, all those headstones, monuments and Mausaleums. Where do you start with a vast amount like that, amazing. I too heard that voice and the skeletal remains were so clear to see. You must have been soaked and freezing after doing the video of this. Well dine Sue and thank you so much. Blessings my dear 💕🇦🇺

Love those family vaults unlike anything else we have ever seen here in the states. Nice job on the skeleton! Maybe do a turnaround on a nicer day audio will be better too. Mt. Jerome is truly awesome.
Oh I'm definitely going back, audio sucks but not much I can do for now, I love the little vaults too, I was just so happy to get there it's been a dream of mine 💖
Hello Then y9u for braving that weather I know what it's like ..I heard every thing you said such a l9vely job you did and the respect you show to everyone God bless you Xx
Thanks Elizabeth I appreciate your comment 😊 ❤
To see that skeleton was really something! I wonder how it came about that the top of the casket was opened and the body left like that?? Spooky 😲😲 I love mausoleums! I am in Australia and do not have the opportunity to see them here. It is fascinating to see cemeteries from other Countries along with the stories of the deceased. Keep up the great work !!
Thanks Carolyn I'm just fascinated ❤
Great video sue, gorgeous cemetery the History just incredible you can learn so much from just walking around the architecture and the detail that go into these mausoleums you just dont see that anymore.
No we don't, Victorians had the most beautiful monuments made for their loved ones. Wish the newer stones could be like this but I can only imagine the cost of something like this
THANK YOU, Serenity sue and Mann.from the dutch, .🇱🇺✝️💐💐💐😇👍🌈🍀🍀. ,,RESPECHT FOR ALL THE. DEAD. HUMANS…..❤
Fabulous tour. Thank you!
Thanks very much 😀 👍
I wonder if the open casket was the man’s dying wish? Or a malfunction of the lock mechanism of the casket -- or maybe vandalism from years ago? Hopefully someone can solve the mystery someday. 🔎
Yes I wonder, you could be right there 😏 ❤
That was a great walk around, with lots too see, and a great inside view aswel, thnx for braving that cold and wet weather. I am a new sub.
Hey Rolf, welcome to our channel, we have a great group here ❤

Thank you ❤️
Here because of faces of the forgotten! I just subscribed loved the first Vlog can’t wait to catch up 🪦
Thanks so very much 😊 ❤🌹
That is a fantastic cemetery! It rivals the weird and wonderful one at Brompton, London. I am wondering how wooden coffins decay to nothing merely by being in the air in mausoleums, like the one you filmed in this video, leaving only the boney remains of the deceased. Excellent photography! I love your videos!
Thanks John, appreciate it, I'm not sure but I presume damp gets in and the wood absorbs it, the skeleton I can't explain at all, was it placed on its own in there? ❤
@@SerenitySueGraveyards to me it looked like the lid of the coffin was raised up. you can just barely see the lid and the wooden stick to prop it open.
Wow, Tara, I wonder why, deliberately or robbers??
Bones can last thousands of years same as in a dry mausoleum, it’s acids in some soils that rot bones, not all soils but the more acidic you would probably only find the odd bit of bone and fragments of wood and nails. TMW 🏴🇬🇧
Timber will always rot depending on what type of wood, oak.
I love how the bronze turned green on the doors and the lead turned white on the windows. That had to be the plan from the beginning.
Yes that is beautiful 😍
I would absolutely love to see some of Ireland someday. But until I can get there I'll depend on you to show me around Miss Sue.
Yes I totally heard the man’s voice!! And the fallen apart casket with the bones, wow!! Great video Sue! Thanks for battling the winds for us. OT.
Hey OT appreciate it, I've been here several times, I adore Mount Jerome. Its a special place full of the most amazing memorials I've ever seen.
Yes it is very beautiful, and yet haunting at the same time. Loved that experience.
Incredible mausoleum/tomb for the lady with the fear of being buried alive ..sad the bell is missing but amazing find
Thanks, yes I loved it here 😀
