Don't be disceived no matter who you hear or see make big speech at one's funeral after awhile you are worth nothing to them worse if your immediate love ones are passed too. Anchor your life in God that tho your flesh be destroyed you have hope in Him.
Now you know everything in this life is vanity. You were born with nothing and will die with nothing... All the fancy things and expensive things will all mean nothing. The only thing that matters in this life is if you lived a life pleasing to your maker
Came across the channel an hour ago. Lovely raw footage. Just some additional information about the May Pen Cemetery. It actually was named after the Chinese family called May. They had given the land up for the cemetery to be erected there. So just gave this info, for those who might be wondering if it had any relations to the May Pen, in Clarendon.
Thieves took a mic made of cement from Massive Dread’s grave in Maypen Cemetery a couple times. Prince Buster and Skatalite’s Lloyd Brevett graves are by the Spanish Town Road, easy access. The monument to the fallen soldiers of World War II is located near the entrance so you can see it safely.
Alot of these people seem to be long forgotten. May they continue to R.I.P. You're not doing any harm to anyone. A Cemetery is a open place & a place for everyone to be able to go & walk around & read the headstones. If family wanted the graves private from the public, then they wouldn't be buried in a Cemetery for all to see. Keep up the good work.
In USA cemeteries are closed at a certain time because you have people desecrate the dead and destroy the Graves those people are heartless and you will be arrested if caught the cemetery is clean in May Pen if I was living out there I would love to see it may their soul rest in peace I give you thumbs up good job ❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍
I hit the like thumb. You have a gut to be walking in the cemetery, brushing n reading the dead people business 😢 they must be smiling. Somebody remember them Good job.
Continue the superb work. We appreciate it. Just be careful. Carry a protective glove and a tool to clear graves or walking path. Be safe in all you do.
We can not depent on Public works or gov to clean up the cemeteries in JA. We have to do it out self and archive our historical past. They gave the land, luckily, they did not take it back. Gov have no loyalties to anyone/things. We are the only one who love to go to funerals but, don’t preserve and respect our ancestors memories. Go to Bottom road in Mobay in the smack of the tourist center; between 2 major and popular hotels; there is a Jewish cemetery this space is sacred, respected and maintained to preserved their ancestor’s memories and their records that, they will never forget. MayPen cemetery, is the only place that, we can associate with, to educate us, to our truth, and of our loved ones and of our past.
I’ve been binge watching your videos. While I am not from Jamaica, I have learned so much lately about the country and your videos have lead me to do some more research on the music, people and places there. Keep up the good work, and do be careful out there 🙂! Such a shame that May Pen cemetery has gotten into such a state of disrepair. Hopefully one day work can be done to clean it up and that the records can be organized for families who might be interested in looking up records of their relatives and might want to visit the graves of family members. Anyway, I look forward to your next video. Edit: Wow, “disrepair” is an understatement! That poor man was left uncovered to the elements. That is horrible!
I had to recant my comment it's not every where is well kept I saw a lot of weeds yes the dead cannot do anything only the living yes may God keep you safe and don't use your bare hands to touch those Graves ok just be careful this is gruesome to see this man like that someone grave robbers did that maybe the family scared to visit 😢May Pen not quiet at all that's what I heard but this young man have a brave heart ♥ take care and may God protect u all the way 🙏🙏👍👍👍👍
Don't be afraid of the dead they cannot hurt you. The had did their time here on earth regardless of how some may die. They are resting peacefully. Only living things has power.❤
Nigel, you are super brave. I guided a Japanese university researcher to May Pen Cemetery Last year, I couldn't get that far. No way. Maximum respect Nigel.
You are one brave man. I am from Trench Town and grew up there, frequent Tivoli Gardens. My uncle was buried at that cemetary in the 1970s, however base on what you said I will not find him. I enjoyed your video as I am fascinated with the dead. You would never catch me in that cemetary however, you could not pay me to go in there. That is a criminal hide out spot and all those open graves. It is too spookie.
Have to try n loud up the government to maintain the cemetery for its their responsibility. Splendid work friend n remember if we bring this issue publicly the government will act. From the over grow bushes to the destroyed grave,what a shame.
I think they should and keep the cemeteries in Jamaican 🇯🇲 more tidy they have got no respect for the dead 💀 not even the living SIR highlighting these Jamaican 🇯🇲 cemeteries very well BLESS you Sir.
I am watching can we all put up a little go fund asking all the people of Jamaica to put up a $500 and we could cleaned up all the cemetery they are our love one o my god
Place of my mother’s burial ground may 1976 RIP Mom you were a Beautiful loving mother . Brother it’s not the dead that can hurt it’s the living walking around with evil hearts
Thank you bro for covering the u that casket it's disgraceful that people don't have any respect for the dead or the living Although seeing maypen cemetery bring back sad memories for me l thank you for the video you see my mom was buried there whenl was a child l was hoping that l could build her tomb when l became an adult never get to and never even remember the sight l still remembered how sad and helpless l was 1:03:29

My Great Grandmother is buried there. When we went to locate her grave we couldn’t find it as someone had stole the masonry (cross & Bible) from on top of it. Great video….it’s a shame such an iconic piece of Jamaica history is neglected like this. Many times I’ve driven past and seen people “living” in there. Government should do something or implement community service to help maintain it.
In the state of Louisiana a lot of grave sites are buried tombs...with that being said my cousin and I would visit our family cemetery and would see some with death date and no born date which was very fascinating information being that the death dates were in the 1800's. Some would have pictures on them that withstood the weather throughout the years so much history.
I totally agree with you. The cemetery badly needs some work. Seems like the CEO of the cemetery needs to have the Ja Gov't repair & maintain the grounds of all public cemeterys.
Good day I'm enjoying watching these video's, I watch Lamont in America he does this. I do this in London when I'm visiting family and friend's. I would be scared doing it in Jamaica, to many bad men bury over there. They really don't look after the cemetery at all.not a good look people. You are brave by yourself there, enjoying watching you from London England.👀🇬🇧🇯🇲❤️
Thanks for showing the May Pen cemetery my father was buried there when I was a child l don't know where exactly I attended the funeral but did not know what year he was born his name was John Ivory it was around January 1971 that's all I can remember. Him and my mother were not living together at the time.
Thankyou for covering that man up. Sometimes its subsidence that makes the graves drop down like that .its happend where my mothers buried.in the older part of the cemetery.
God bless you 🙏 always for doing such great job prior to touring the cemeterys and to see the community of cemetery conditions many blessings 🌹🌹🌹🙏 to you 💖 and your bravery God is love and he's with you much love in Jesus name 🌹🙏!!!!!
My brother good job the most important thing about a cemetary is biography into the lives of past individuals. So glad u are doing one for jamaica just like the americans. Ivan o rigen was one of intrest is story led to the movie the harder they come jamaicas first gunman.
Is the willoww/wist tree still over collie smith's grave? Went their as a boy in search of claims cherry. Felt privilege as a person when I got to understand the very significant site. Heard he hit a 6 in a match from boys town in a match and the ball landed there. Heard the bowler was roy Gilchrist. One of the at the fastest at the time. Fascinating and nostalgic work. Kudos!!
i love these videos mr Jamaica chapter very interesting i was watching if i know anyone may be some of those long time burial could be most of Jamaican relatives maybe it all those hurricane storm the carvings get weaker
Hello My Friend good evening My grandfather is buried there. I’ve been trying to find his record for so many years with no luck. He died before I was born. I always try to find something jus to hold on to I never met him yet I miss him If you have any information that you can share on way that I can find his grave or at least his death certificate. He died at the Kingston Public Hospital would appreciate 100% one love Keep on doing the good work my friend
You Are Very Courageous!!! The Loved Ones Of These Dead Persons Can Go In And Weed Up The Grass And Try And Tidy Up The Areas Around The Caskets To Help Them To Better Rest In Peace.
I’m not entirely sure but most countries have a level of care for grounds you would think apply to the most important grounds such as local parks and cemeteries to keep them looking respectable for visitation. Jamaica needs to create Jobs on the island to help the situation, people are in need of work and I can’t understand why the government over looks simple issues like this I’m absolutely appalled by watching this it’s truly shocking, I had no idea that there is no up keep I also have family laid at rest in may pen cemetery I’d hate to think…. God almighty! 🙏🏾 Keep doing your work my brother I’m learning so much from your uploads 🙏🏾
Honestly I was worried about his safety for other reasons. He is one brave person because that place is historically notorious for things other than it being the infamous May Pen Cemetery.
Buried my dad there October 1987 the following year was hurricane Gilbert so i didntt get to put the head stone on by the time things had cleared up and got back to normal my dad grave disappeared. So the head stone is now in my back yard in Jamaica.
I really enjoys your videos bringing back these memories and sharing their life stories with us , my question to to you is what really inspired you to do this? Are you an historian ?
Boy dis ya man ya good as gold , him know weh fe find the real legend dem ,, maypen was the first place I went to a funeral,, a cousin a mine followed friends go pon robbery in a 1976 and that’s where he was buried,as a little boy I still remember, maypen is a very lonely 😞 place boy, anyway enjoy your journey back to st Elizabeth me father born place , thanks 🙏🏾 fe the video, big up 👌🇯🇲🇯🇲🇬🇧
Blessings to all, great things brother 🙏. Hopefully I can see u do white mall cemetery some day,blessings again to u and family.its on the highway going to Spanish town
Seeing these neglected graves of ppl who were once moverse and shakers show that with time we are ALL FORGOTTEN😢😢
Don't be disceived no matter who you hear or see make big speech at one's funeral after awhile you are worth nothing to them worse if your immediate love ones are passed too. Anchor your life in God that tho your flesh be destroyed you have hope in Him.
Now you know everything in this life is vanity. You were born with nothing and will die with nothing... All the fancy things and expensive things will all mean nothing. The only thing that matters in this life is if you lived a life pleasing to your maker
God haven’t forgotten them or their deeds, they will be judged accordingly, including me!
Not even the Dead they will . lesve....Alone

Thanks for info, is the May family still going strong in JA? First time hearing about them.
@@dantez2430 I'm not too sure.
Not true! May pen cemetery is centuries old and no Chinese have land! 🔥

Wow! So interesting! I’ve heard of May Pen Cemetery but never been and don’t want to either. You’re a really brave man! No fear! 😨
The dead can't do you no harm
Thanks for doing this video. The last time I was there was in 1983 for my great grandmother funeral.
My brother thank you for this channel am learning history from your great work ❤❤
Thank you for covering that man up in his grave.
Such a sad state for him to be left in.
I hit the like thumb. You have a gut to be walking in the cemetery, brushing n reading the dead people business 😢 they must be smiling. Somebody remember them
Good job.

Read those names that u can see

Oh my Lord, you are doing a great job. Please be careful.
Nigel, you are super brave. I guided a Japanese university researcher to May Pen Cemetery Last year, I couldn't get that far. No way. Maximum respect Nigel.
THIS MAN IS A LEGEND - I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE SO COMFORTABLE IN A CEMETRY. THIS MAN HAS NO FEAR OF DUPPY .
As a child my friends and I used to go there and pickup plums. Also sometime even takes a nap. It was always so cool in that cemetery.
Those were called duppy plums. A lot of lignum vitae trees used to be there as well.
Yes I use to hang out there in the 70s. Those were the good old days. Those days are over
Really ?? 😢

May Pen cemetery was an official cemetery but it needs to be kept more tidy a lot of work need to be done down there.
Back in the day. Some high officials are buried there. But the gunman them take it over.
The Jamaican Government is responsible to maintain that cemetery. All them do is take money and get rich

Is the willoww/wist tree still over collie smith's grave?
Went their as a boy in search of claims cherry.
Felt privilege as a person when I got to understand the very significant site.
Heard he hit a 6 in a match from boys town in a match and the ball landed there.
Heard the bowler was roy Gilchrist. One of the at the fastest at the time.
Fascinating and nostalgic work.
Kudos!!
Thank for this video, really interesting video
Well done, i enjoyed watching this
Who can one contact to know the grave numbers and location of loved ones???? At Maypen cemetery??
Lol very likely that what you are seeking isn’t even available..Jamaica is slack like that.
i love these videos mr Jamaica chapter very interesting i was watching if i know anyone may be some of those long time burial could be most of Jamaican relatives maybe it all those hurricane storm the carvings get weaker
Hello My Friend good evening My grandfather is buried there. I’ve been trying to find his record for so many years with no luck. He died before I was born. I always try to find something jus to hold on to I never met him yet I miss him If you have any information that you can share on way that I can find his grave or at least his death certificate. He died at the Kingston Public Hospital would appreciate 100% one love
Keep on doing the good work my friend
Contact KSAC, they record the graves.
I enjoyed this episode on May Pen Cemetery. KSAC should do a better job in taking care of the cemetery.
@@Junjo11 thank you so much
Visit the RGD and give them the info you have of your grand father maybe they can give you a copy of his death certificate.
Thank you 🙏

Enjoy your life when you still can you take nothing with you when you go
I am nervous watching you walking in the cemetery with all those broken tombs , even if I had company I don't think I would be walking there .
Honestly I was worried about his safety for other reasons. He is one brave person because that place is historically notorious for things other than it being the infamous May Pen Cemetery.
Hey, I am not scared of the dead. I'm afraid of the living
Me worst, nay na go
I've been in a car driving past it but will never go in there
