Sun-colored amethyst (purple) glass dates between 1881 and 1917. Manganese was added to glass to make it clear, but when exposed to sunlight it turned the glass purple. The main source of manganese was Germany, and World War I disrupted the availability of it. US glass makers stop using it at that time.
I agree! We have an old 1800’s family Cemetary in Oklahoma on land my family sold. They allow my cousin to come me once a year and clean up the graves. I wish it were the same with Cemetary locations like this. Future Generations need to keep up with these.
wow ... boy howdy this reminds me of running thru the woods as a child, working our way thru the briars. We weren't looking for old cemeteries, but we sure did find some treasures - turtles, snakes, rocks, creeks, trees, wildflowers - the best childhood ever !!! :)
"Well, they ran through the briars and they ran through the bushes and they ran through the places where a rabbit couldn't go... " Thanks for reminding me of that old Johnny Horton song, and putting a visual to it! :D
On the grave that is about 10 feet long, my theory is that maybe they lost several children due to a disease outbreak or something that caused several deaths in a short period. There could be several children or shorter people buried side-by-side so perhaps 4 or 5 graves inside of it.
I had to go into a very wooded place in Virginia to get at a tombstone that had all the names of the family on it. There were briars and other stuff but I was able to get passed it and take pics of the tombstone and what was left of the house.
Robert you need to carry some tools with you at all times!! Not just a brush but maybe some sort of cutting implement too!! This video just shows your dedication to what you do!! And how serious you are!! Another top quality video! Thankyou to you all for your efforts! Big hugs!
It occurred to me that it could have happened more than one person buried in such a large grave there but I’m glad that you and Dan were able to find a and I just wanted to say thank you Robert and Dan for finding them
Yes I thought of more than one person buried under the large stone grave. Why would it be so long? They could have been buried with some possessions OR it might have been a small family who passed away at the same time.
Trotted thru many of them type woods in my youth in Georgia....usually t-shirt and shorts and occasionally barefoot....surprised I'm alive...but such fun and adventures had to be had 😁🕊️
Fascinating. You might want to research if there were any cholera outbreaks in the area. The large grave might be a family. Here in Kentucky, we had several cholera outbreaks starting first in the early 1830's, then in 1849 which was particularly deadly (one in seven people died) and then, I believe the last outbreak was in the 1850's. There were cases of cholera from time to time but the larger outbeaks could wipe out entire families over a matter of days to weeks. Very sad. Thank you for your videos.I really enjoy them.
I’m glad you all are documenting these forgotten places. I wonder if someone were to check courthouse records land books to see if the tax tickets if it would show who owned this tract before the Ingram ownership. I suspect this tract was given a Revolutionary War soldier for his services. This is fascinating and you all did a wonderful job. Thank you for sharing !
Thank you for risking scrapes and scratches to bring us to that place. I have never seen anything like it. To think it's been back there for almost 200 years....
Very fascinating. Too bad you weren't able to read the markings. So glad you are documenting these cemeteries and the people who are there, as best you can. Great team with you as well.
Fabulous. I'd have thought Georgia, being one of the older colonies, would have opened up earlier. Of course I know my ancestors from NJ were facing a wilderness. The expansion in the early days, must have been just as brutal as the expansion into the interior & out West. We honestly don't know just how tough those early pioneers were. Incredible people, with incredible dreams.
When we used to do a lot of woods exploring like that, I always thought that maybe next time I'll bring a pair of snips with me, or loppers, and but I never remembered to do it. I should have just kept a pair in the car. It was very interesting to hear Dad discussing the rock graves. They are completely, or almost completely, unknown up here in NJ. Pretty cool. But I have seen a few graves that are completely cemented over, that may look like that underneath the cement. But they are nowhere near that big.
Robert, have you ever thought of marking these areas of old graves to make them easier for people to distinguish ?. To help protect the grave areas ?. Just curious. Love these videos.
This grave site is big wonder. Read some comments n some felt it might of been more than one person buried there. I have to disagree. I really feel it was someone that was very important . It was fascinating to see how the rocks were placed on it. It would be so rewarding if ever could find exactly who all is buried there. So thankful that you n other Robert along with Dan that you take a interest in old cemeteries n documenting them. There’s not many people like you guys who care enough to do this. I would just like to say Thank you n I truly mean it. ♥️ ♥️😊👍👍👍
I kept expecting to see you arrive at your destination & look over to find the clearing to the road you never knew was there! (That happened on one of your previous excursions!)
I am absolutely fascinated by this channel. I've always wanted to be able to find a forgotten grave or cemetery. Somebody told me once that you really only existed if somebody remembers you or your name. What an honor it would be to find an unknown cemetery and say those names out loud or, lacking a decipherable headstone or marker, simply contemplate who might be buried there. To "remember" them. Thanks for helping me find those unknown graves vicariously by watching your wonderful videos!!!
The “I inside a Diamond” trademark on the bottom of the bottle base is for the Illinois Glass Company, 1915-1929. It might explain the concrete patch job.
Wow! How fascinating this cemetery is and a loss too not knowing who was buried & when. Most likely at the time, there were people nearby who were familiar with the place, but are now long gone. Thanks Robert & Dan for sharing.
Wouldn’t it be magical if you had instant underground radar to see exactly where each body is and make sure they are marked somehow? So many lost 😞. One day 💖
These lost cemeteries have become more and more interesting 🤔. It's a shame there could not be some names found on at least one grave. Forgotten history. What a shame 😔. Unless there is a record somewhere, these people are forgotten as well. God bless 💖
@Catherine Telesco Your right. God really is the important one. I think it's their history not that that's important to God but, they knew how to survive in a time that today we may need to survive ourselves. A time is coming that we may need to know that history. Their history what the knew to stay alive. We have lost so much history and knowledge of our forefather. It makes me sad. My family is trying to find some of their history to try to survive. This is one reason I like Robert. Because he believes in and wants to preserve as much of that history as he can. I love what Robert dose . ♥️ God bless 💖
Noticed the last piece of purple glass tossed against the tree, had a stamp on the bottom, diamond shaped, if it had an H in the middle of the diamond, it is probably Heisey glass.
Very sad to see the condition the Graves are in time does take toll I kept thinking about what their lives were like and what it looked like back then all gone 😢
I always marvel at the way you guys can just walk through most of these forested places you go because this is the type of woods that are behind my property about 50 acres that are so full of briar's that you can't make your way through without hedge clippers. I would like to explore the woods more but it is really slow going in there. Really good video wish we knew more about who rests there. Thank you for filming !
This might be a dumb guess but in that huge grave do you think it's possible a horse might be buried there? Obviously 250 - 300 years ago they would have owned one or more and maybe they had a favorite that died and they wanted to be buried with it? I've heard of people having their pets buried near them and back then I'd have to think you could grow pretty attached to a horse if you spent all day with them.
Only place in Central GA that I've seen a Grave marker of that size and that construction is east of Woodland on HWY 36 near elmwood house. You have already visited and filmed that one. If those graves in Rough Edge are Ingrams then Mr Danny Ingram would know..he lives south of Woodland on Woodland Hwy @SidestepAdventures
I know it's probably just coincidence but some areas of the country notably in Ohio and Wisconsin graves like that were found to have very large skeletal remains. These "giant" people graves have also been found all around the world but usually are much older.
Hi, I have a question - do you find that the " Private Family Cemetery's " do the graves face east-west ? or is that not a practice in your state? Love your work.
This all makes me wonder who these people were, and how and when they died. I also wonder if they have any living relatives anywhere in this part of the state.
There is sorrow in this graveyard. I'm sorry the inscription did not survive weathering. A very large grave, perhaps it holds several people who died at the same time. The last people who called this area home must have visited the graveyard before leaving.
You need a machete to do this kind of exploring. I bet an investigation of original land grants would lead to the likely identity of this Cemetary. Any surviving members may have been dislocated during reconstruction at the end of the Civil war. I imagine family attempted to keep up the graveyard until too old to continue. Possibly some amateur genealogist will find this vid and help to identify. Keep on doing these vids as it is a documentation of the earlier settlers lives and daily realities .
I bet the grave in the middle is a child. I love taking these trips with you. lol Genealogy and history are two of my passions. I'm not sure if you've thought of this, but maybe carry a notebook and pencils/chalk with you. I've used it a lot on difficult-to-read stones. And it doesn't do any damage to the stone because you don't need to put a lot of pressure on it (especially with the chalk). and nothing is put on the stone itself except the paper held to it. Happy Hunting! ~ Stephanie
From here, the inscription looks like it says "Mother." A chip is knocked out of the T, and turns it into a J. I'll bet those graves are Father and Mother, with a baby in between. Interesting find, almost worth going through a Briar Hell to get to them. Best wishes.
You should load up your wisteria tractor for these outings! Perhaps in a couple hundred years, archeologists will give these graves the attention they deserve. They'll determine that people buried in such a manner must have been important leaders, and their tombs arrayed to align with some solar something.
Just think on how many forgotten Cemetery there are in the woods of the United States....in all states...we have 5 here in Iowa ....one in Moffitt Reservoir and one in the middle of a road ....there are more of them here in IOWA
Y'all need to learn from Kentuckians who are Briarhoppers, how to get through a mess of saw briars. 🤣🤣🤣 Don't lose sight of someone... sounds ominous, the Rough Edge lore looms. That cemetery is as desolate and lonely looking place as I have ever seen. I wonder what the plaque said? Hmmm, stolen, I guess. Great information from Dan on the grave construction!! Walter said, it was an experience, it looks it! Another Rough Edge gem, excellent!! 👍👍 !!!
I - came mostly prepared; waders with steel plates in the soles, rip-stop tactical pants, a bulky jacket, safety glasses, and leather gloves. But I plan to invest in chaps! The rip-stop pants only partially protected from scratches. But I fared better than Robert and Dan! (Walter Mallard Photography)
@@DTRBrianMallard hi! I noticed there might be a top half of the round imprint missing and it looked to me like 1849; it definitely says RIP at the bottom of the circle.
The darker the purple, the older it is. Found alot of glass pieces in old homesteads in SE Texas. Daddy and my sister and I would take walks and visit the sites.
I believe I recognize the marking on thr glass. I could not see it very well, but Boyd Glass if Cambridge, OH used a mark of that shape with a "B" inside the parallelogram.
So much mystery here! And such an adventure to get to it!

The first inscription looks to be 1899, at least to me. Keep up the good work, guys! God bless you all!
That round imprint in the mortar may have been where a medallion or plaque was installed, and later removed.
Looks like you guys could have used a Machete or two. Loving this series Robert...keep up the good work.
Was just going to type that.

Where has the “other Robert” been, miss him
I asked that question a couple of videos ago and have not heard anything back.
We miss our other Robert ❤️
I miss "Robert the Elder",too!
I don’t miss him at all. He’s annoying.
I really like the other Robert, but Dan's knowledge is amazing and I really like listening to him too!

I agree. It was someone very important to whoever had that monument constructed or constructed it themselves
I agree. And the stone was placed wider and longer, so it sat on stable ground, not the unpacked soil of a fresh grave.

The leaves crinkling are loud, great sound system
I have never seen a grave that big in all my life! That’s got to be a very strange story there…. You guys could have used a weed whacker lol🐝🤗❤️
From here, the inscription looks like it says "Mother." A chip is knocked out of the T, and turns it into a J. I'll bet those graves are Father and Mother, with a baby in between. Interesting find, almost worth going through a Briar Hell to get to them. Best wishes.
When they held the flashlight on the right side toward the circle, it looked like *Mother" to me, too.
Great video Robert 👍. Love this series.
It’s ashamed that nobody take care of this Cemetery I’m sure somebody knows something or is it that they just simply don’t care
robert is it possible to record the exact locations of these unknowns with compass bearings? for archival documentation.
Up here in Southwestern PA we don't call them briars. We call them jaggers!😃
Should have had the other Robert and his clippers with you.
Amazing how these grave can be lost , goes along with my philosophy of " who's gonna give a damn in a 100 yrs"
It would be nice to find some volunteer groups to clean these old cemeteries up .
Robert, you also might want to take a piece of graphite and paper to get impressions
Robert when are you going to learn to be prepared with:
Machete
Brush
Snipes
Gloves
Tall boots
😳🤔🧐👏🤣😉😂🤣😅😁🙏🙋♀️🇨🇦
Nice job
Thanks for investigating this site gentleman. God his watching you.
You can sometimes read something by taking a thin paper and charcoal pencil and do a rubbing. It will sometimes stand out by doing this.
