I am pretty sure Aaron Pinson was like my 7th great grandfather. How cool is that? Thank you for keeping those mountains alive. . .the history there of. I tell people all the time that I literally can feel that I belong there through my bare feet when I go home.
Dallee Ongcay Thankyou! This was a school project during my undergrad. I thoroughly enjoyed making it. I love history and film. I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊
Your dad sounds like a backwoods country boy. He's got the accent and everything just like I do. I want to know how you don't have an accent like any of us? You're the first country girl I ever heard without accent. Thank you for sharing these stories I love them too.
Thank you for doing this ,sadly our heritage is dying ,the new generation don't know they keep their face in a phone ,I make my grandson turn off his phone and tell him stories he loves it,,blessing from starrmountain in south east Tennessee.
I KNOW this is 4+ years ago, but if you're still around TH-cam...I have one question. Do the locals in your area say Apa-latch-un or Apple-ay-shun? Always wondered. Thanks. :-)
Thanks you two. I know that locals know the true way of pronouncing things. I lived in Bangor, Maine for a few months, and found out that the World pronounces it like "banger", but the locals say "ban-gore". That's just one example. Time, and time again, the locals taught me the correct way to say things. LOL
Nope. Grew up on the west coast, and moved to the Midwest as an adult, so I could live in a town big enough for all of the conveniences, but small enough to still talk about God without feeling "weird", and get all of the Seasons. :P I call it my small slice of "Mayberry".
I see I'm not the only person who thought this was a great video! I'm so surprised you haven't gotten more views. I see you did this for a class on social work, so I see why you haven't continued. Still, you do have skills! Maybe you're in the wrong profession.
I think it's interesting that you want to visit Appalachia. I grew up and still live in eastern Kentucky. Where is it you live? I'd love to know how and where you live. It would be fun to get to know someone that dont live here, and to see how different your life is from mine.
I would have taken that deer skull with me, disinfected it, and painted it gold. Bones are the foundation of life. Sorry if that sounds morbid. But I did say I would disinfect it first. And it is a deer.
They always find the most weird people to interview and then make fun of them n ky not every body is like that who lives here they r a lot smart people here they r a lot of more haunted places there then is on here I like to see a haunted banned coal mines there is a lot of mines here has to be some haunted
Why did he totally strip it? It's like all it's history has been destroyed, he should have at least left the spring loaded trap door. I don't see anyone jumping off that bridge because you might survive that high of a fall and just be crippled! Looks like that hotel use to be huge, is there any pictures of it?
sponge head oh yeah you know that place was gorgeous. That entryway was rather extensive! Also, I was worried about the girl trying to jump off of only 50 ft height to kill herself. That height might have only maimed her, leading to a long slow death. That doesn't mean she didn't do it though. People are idiots. People like blood sausage. Enough said LOL.
It was being renovated. The man I interviewed was the caretaker. He lives there in a trailer so people don’t come and vandalize it while they’re renovating it but he doesn’t own it. I know I wish it’d been left original too but I think it was falling apart.
I knew some Chastains in Dalton . Fairly wealthy concrete finishers . Ronnie Chastian big time concrete man. I being a redi mix driver for Murray mix worked with him and his brothers many times pure Gentleman as I remember.
joel ferguson I have family in cohutta ga my mother married and moved to quitman ga I’m from here but my heart is cohutta. Like they say “ant no place like cohutta”
Goodluck finding anyone who didn't have them including your own trashy ancestors..get over it and deal with current issues or we will be back to those days again
Actually the KKK is funded by George sorros and other political people. It didn’t start in the south. Stop being brainwashed and do some fucking research.

You've obviously never seen old photos of the huge Klan rallies held in Jackson Michigan in the 30's and 40's..... tens of thousands of them parading down main street and it was all proudly sponsored by Coca-Cola
Appalachia is real America. Great people and spirit

Talk to the older people in the community, they grew up with the stories and are often a treasure trove of history.
Great video, Greetings from Scotland.
loved the stories wonderful to hear

GOOD VIDEO - I LOVE HISTORY - ONE COULD ALSO FEEL THEM "HAINTS" CREEPING ABOUT THE PLACES YOU VISITED - LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice little presentation
Great video!
I KNOW this is 4+ years ago, but if you're still around TH-cam...I have one question. Do the locals in your area say Apa-latch-un or Apple-ay-shun? Always wondered. Thanks. :-)
Both ways actually.
Dianne Steitz people do say it both ways. But the way I hear it the most is with the "latch" sound
Thanks you two. I know that locals know the true way of pronouncing things. I lived in Bangor, Maine for a few months, and found out that the World pronounces it like "banger", but the locals say "ban-gore". That's just one example.

You're welcome Dianne. I take it you're not from the south?
Nope. Grew up on the west coast, and moved to the Midwest as an adult, so I could live in a town big enough for all of the conveniences, but small enough to still talk about God without feeling "weird", and get all of the Seasons. :P I call it my small slice of "Mayberry".
Dianne Steitz...we say Apa-latch-un...
Christy Frost
Oh God thank you. Yes. Do you know if that's a Cherokee word? I just know that it's always pronounced incorrectly.
I see I'm not the only person who thought this was a great video! I'm so surprised you haven't gotten more views. I see you did this for a class on social work, so I see why you haven't continued. Still, you do have skills! Maybe you're in the wrong profession.
fun , thanks for posting
Chastain house sounds so familiar.
Very Interesting!
I want to see Appalachia so bad. I know it has some dark sad history but the tales and the people seem fascinating.
I think it's interesting that you want to visit Appalachia. I grew up and still live in eastern Kentucky. Where is it you live? I'd love to know how and where you live. It would be fun to get to know someone that dont live here, and to see how different your life is from mine.
I love this
Klamath falls Oregon is listening and watching
You mention the town or locale , but not the state. Great old stories, thanks for bring them to us.
My bad, it's Georgia
Excellent video, you have a calming voice. Thanks so much very enjoyable great adventure.

I agree. I'm from KY and they definitely pick the dumbest people to interview. And I'm always thinking, Way to represent!! 🤦

As soon as he said about the owners had slaves ,..it turned me off ,...truly sad 😓
Maria Nunez did u just assume my gender ? Lolol
MrCantstandliberals sorry didn't notice that it was a females voice who was the story teller
Goodluck finding anyone who didn't have them including your own trashy ancestors..get over it and deal with current issues or we will be back to those days again
@@MrCantstandliberals how dare you assume there is such a thing as gender..see how stupid it is when easily offended...gtf over it
No such thing as ghosts
TheBic4 yes but there are good and bad spirits wandering around .
All bad
You should get someone else to narrate your stories. You don’t have the voice for it
That's rude she has a very pleasant voice thank you.if you can do better get to it
You are standing on the grounds of K.K.K. COUNTRY
