Love the channel! ❤
We need to find out the origin of the word 'Tremont' to help with pronunciation. According to Google tremont means three mountains in French. So we could say /tray/ but if we apply English syllable division rules then it would be: 2 syllables, open and closed therefore, /tr -ee- mont/, short o in mont, accent the /tree/ first syllable.

It really is a shame people are so disrespectful with people's graves. Like vandalism, stealing headstones to use as walkway pavers, building over cemeteries. Using them as tras sites! 😠 Just crazy. A few hundred years from now, all unmarked graves will be uncovered just like we are finding burial sites in the center of cities from ages ago. In my hometown they were expanding a highway and ended up taking part of a small, unattended cemetery with unmarked graves and ended uncovering many remains.
