    Always enjoy your journeys into the cemeteries in OH and KY. I was born in KY and my father's family was from OH so I feel like I am looking at the same areas where my ancestors were from. My family moved out to OK when I was a baby so I didn't grow up there. Looking forward to the next video.

    My mother is from Ironton, and her family is buried there. I have spent many a Memorial Day weekend at Woodland. Thank you so much for this video, Chris. I can tell you that the legend you shared about the statue never having anything on the right cheek on the face is something we've enjoyed checking out on every visit. And every time, it is as clean as it was when you made this wonderful video.... Thank You again....

Woodland isn't on the banks of the Ohio river.. it's about 1.5 miles from the river.. across Highway 52 which runs next to the Cemetery.. then a shopping center.. then South 3rd st which leads to Ironton/Coal Grove.. then the Ohio river.. you can't even see the river from the cemetery..but good video

    alot of the tree stump headstones were "Woodsmen of the World" At a Woodman’s funeral, his tombstone would be revealed in an elaborate ritual. It would be marked with the motto “Dum Tacet Clamet” (“Though Silent, He Speaks”) and rest on a stack of logs, each log symbolizing one of the deceased’s children. and would sometimes have embellishments reflecting the Woodman’s personality
