Other Robert is correct about the building [now torn down] on the same side as the early Parrott Cemetery. I remember the old building in the late 1950s. Folks wanted to see it designated on the historic list. I visited Parrott as a boy almost every summer. The highway was two lane and not very busy. In the late 50s and early 60s. A gentleman housed a gigantic firearms collection in the old depot. He bought and sold. He was so patient with a small boy with a fascination of everything guns. BTW, The grand daughter of Roy S Pinkston Rachel Pinkston Weitnauer passed away in Feb. Blessings to the family, especially Joel and Roy.
Interesting story. The Parrots are not resting in peace with all that traffic. I bet there are graves under the road. I guess I'd rather be in a lonely forgotten overgrown cemetery. Corvair? You are not going far without an engine! 👍👍
Other Robert, thanks so much for your review of the Parrott Cemeteries and the Parrott Family. I am related to the Pinkston Family. E.S. Pinkstonm [Edward Swift]'s son Roy S Pinkston married my great aunt Mary Irvin Pinkston. Both are now buried at Parrott. There are many more interesting memorials and people buried there and I would love to see a regular "Sidestep" review. E.S. Pinkston 's first wife's marker[Mattie A Walley [Parrott] sits alone because her husband is buried with his 2nd wife. Mattie is the daughter of Martha Alice [Parrott] Wayley. Martha was the daughter of James Parrott and sister of John Lawson.
Thanks for taking us on a trip today TOR. It was nice of Robert to let you drive his classic Corvair. You'll get your cardio in driving that car. Isn't it like Fred Flintstone's car, foot powered no engine ? I'd at least try to get the keys to that 57 Chevy it runs.
Thank you O'Robert. Very interesting, seemed like a nice family. Wow 800 acres....only thing that didn't seem right was the headliner on your new car...😁
Oh Robert there you are again you make out day thankyou and Robert for all you do and are we can't wait for you all love always prayers may all your hopes and dreams come true take care god bless
I had a family cemetery taken out by highway widening. They tore up the headstones and tossed them in a ditch. A family member came across the stones and moved them to another family cemetery about 15 miles off. From what I understand my 4th great grandparents and some aunts and uncles graves are just hard by the pavement of that highway. I guess, at least, the headstones were managed to be saved. 😢
That is AWFUL! No family should have to deal with that and I am so sorry you and yours have had to! We do have laws about that here in Georgia but I'm well aware that it still goes on. I have Cherokee in my ancestry. We brought a company and a city accountable for digging up some of our ancient grounds here just recently. I hope you and yours find peace.
Hey Robert #2. Wow that's old .. born 1795!! Amazing his son John Lawson never married or had children. Well the Internet doesn't list a marriage anyway. Thnx for taking us along Robert. I do have one teeny tiny request .. when ur shooting the vid & you lean in to read & point; u tend to hold the camera below where ur reading or pointing to. I know it's difficult to lean, get the light right & hold the camera too at a good angle so u can read it .. but I'd just like to follow along if you can manage it please. I am enjoying ur vids Robert #2. I hope you did t wind up with too too many scrapes & scratches from that Briar Patch (Magnolia Springs😉) cemetery yesterday. B safe & well .. peace❣️🙂🙏🏼
There's Alot of cemeteries close to roads around here in Wisconsin too, but I'm pretty sure that it's because of the state widening the roadways.. But it's Very Sad
I am a Parrott. My ancestors settled Parrottvsville, TN. My great great grandfather was a John L Parrott, too, but not that one, obviously, because mine is buried here in southern Illinois. My brother is named after John L. I imagine if you go back far enough, the Parrotts there are also my relation, as my ancestors came from France. I was so excited to see this because I had no idea there was another whole town settled by Parrotts!
Mercy! That 2nd cemetery was a noisy one!! If those folks could have seen how it would be 100 years later, they probably would have chosen a different area for the burying ground. Good video Robert!!
Robert O, you certainly have done your research on this cemetery. How rare that a family lot is remained preserved. I guess putting this by a road, or having a road put beside it, ensured that it would be maintained. Thank you for this tour.
There is a very old cemetery in Sacramento, California from the gold rush time period. One of my ancestral uncles is buried but the cemetery does not know where any longer. The location of the tier and grave number on record has been lost and likely is under a major boulevard or a side street both have been known to have old old graves that are paved over. Done years and years ago. There happily is a general monument to the victims of Cholera which raged for about 2 years off and on in that period. Relative said to have died from "Dysentery". Maybe it was actually Cholera? Who knows.
Good to see you back to your normal routine Robert you make it so interesting of the history of the early settlers that set up towns it's marvellous that some of there descendents are still about all the best Andrew south wales uk 👍 👌 😀 🇬🇧
My French ancestors came to America because they did not want to be Roman Catholic. Wanted to worship as Protestants. Good work Robert the Elder. Nice cemetery!
I really love the history and genealogy you give on these different people. My family think I'm crazy because I enjoy walking in cemeteries instead on forest trails. Oh well, at least I don't have the dead talking back to me!
Parrott and some of those names must have been Anglicised if they were French in origin. There were alot of French Protestants called Huguenots who immigrated to US and the British Isles. They'd surnames like Molyneaux. Great video 👍
The roadside graves common in the area mostly on back roads but the oldest graves I've seen are north of Geneva Ga on 41 and they're from the 1700s pre revolutionary war it's the Barksdale cemetery if I recall correctly
One thing for sure if you make it up to Pennsylvania there’s a lot of off-road adventures like me and my grandmother were looking for my 4th great grand uncle Andrew Weikerts grave and it was in a cemetery very far off the main road.
@chasechristophermurrey I live in West Virginia now, my now deceased Vietnam Veteran was from Pittsburg and had relatives that lived in Gettsburg....especially during the War between brothers...his Great Grandma told him of having picnics and watching the fighting
PArrot GA! Boy if that isn't a intresting name.. Sound like the Parrot family had sucess... I was once read online there was a real town called Anaconda Montana! No kidding.. Lol
I've seen the old Anaconda newspaper when I'm working on ancestry stuff. 😄 Really close to Butte, and also near Deer Lodge where Montana's state prison is..
The deceased in the roadside cemetery certainly don't get any RIP. The state needs to build a concreete wall or high fence to help protect thie roadside cemetery. Easy for a car or truck could go into it or skid into it.
Amazing how close this one is to the road!!

How on earth can these poor people Rest In Peace when there are trucks passing so close by?!!
Thanks Robert Snr. For showing us these cemeteries.
I love watching you go to cemeteries and old graveyards. You get me excited to get back to my own genealogy research.
Thanks for sharing the history of the people and places of Georgia

Oh wow.. Thanks for explaining that!! I was wondering why, with so many plots open, she was on the other side.. Good to know~ 🥰

Interesting history Here Robert thank you xxx
Aloha 🌺 Robert. Thank you! 🥰
Thank you O'Robert. Very interesting, seemed like a nice family. Wow 800 acres....only thing that didn't seem right was the headliner on your new car...😁
The loudest cemetery in Georgia?
It certainly sounds that way. Not an old coffin there that has not disintegrated from road traffic vibration impact...if it had not already.
Beautiful cemetery and headstones
ALWAYS NICE TO GET THE STORIES OF THE PEOPLE. THEY KEEP IT REALLY NICE.
Thank you Robert very interesting cemetery today!
Oh Robert there you are again you make out day thankyou and Robert for all you do and are we can't wait for you all love always prayers may all your hopes and dreams come true take care god bless

Thanks Robert!
THANKS!🌻😊
Thank you.
Thank you for the tour today. A good assumption on the location. Thank you, Sir! ❤😮
Another good video from the "Other Robert". Keep them coming.
Neat cemetery and boy you were not kidding about it being on the road..just becareful folks are crazy when driving. Ty for the vid..
Fascinating!
Great job 👏 👍
Interesting name, Parrott, our family tree has some. Ours were in MA, 1700s. Thanks for the tour!!!!
Robert O great job Thank you for your video and all the information. So happy to see this cemetery is so well kept👍👍👍👍
Absolutely awesome
Other Robert!!! So glad to hear you again! Have missed your imput!!
Other Robert, what happened to your neon shirt? Almost thought that there was an impostor!
That's sad to make the road so close to the cemetery. Thanks for sharing
Doing an amazing job Mr. Robert. 🖤🖤🖤
Had enough of the briars O.R. Good job.Thanks for sharing.
Robert I hardly recognized you without your without your yellow shirt!!!👍🏻
Mercy! That 2nd cemetery was a noisy one!! If those folks could have seen how it would be 100 years later, they probably would have chosen a different area for the burying ground. Good video Robert!!
thanks robert for making those video,s..its great to see you more again! greetings my friend from the netherlands.
Robert O, you certainly have done your research on this cemetery. How rare that a family lot is remained preserved. I guess putting this by a road, or having a road put beside it, ensured that it would be maintained. Thank you for this tour.
I like all the historical reseach you did.
Thanks for sharing
what a great video.......II love that you are doing sidestep adventure now.
Thank you to the other Robert for this information. I love Georgia history! My dad and his ancestors were born there.
Enjoyed Robert
Thank you the other Robert, for sharing this with us.
That was very interesting. Feel sorry for the poor people buried by the highway. No rest for them.
There is a very old cemetery in Sacramento, California from the gold rush time period. One of my ancestral uncles is buried but the cemetery does not know where any longer.

My family is the Parrott Georgia, Bridges
That same stone design?? did Robert 2 showed us that before??? Thank you again!!!!
That traffic!!!😮
Loved this, thank you.
Thanks other Robert ! Good job !!
Love it when your on these videos. Mr. OR Take care
Thanks Robert! Love seeing and hearing about all these people and places you visit! So happy you are back to keeping us entertained! Enjoy that car!
Good to see you back to your normal routine Robert you make it so interesting of the history of the early settlers that set up towns it's marvellous that some of there descendents are still about all the best Andrew south wales uk 👍 👌 😀 🇬🇧
Robert O good job telling the history & exploring the cemetery. How can they RIP with the highway so close? Love watching your videos- thank you!👍
My French ancestors came to America because they did not want to be Roman Catholic.
Wanted to worship as Protestants.
Good work Robert the Elder.
Nice cemetery!
I really love the history and genealogy you give on these different people. My family think I'm crazy because I enjoy walking in cemeteries instead on forest trails. Oh well, at least I don't have the dead talking back to me!
Always enjoy your videos .
That's great too close to road
Very interesting. That's some of the kind of stuff I check out, here in NJ. I love it.
The Parrott headstone was the same as in another video. A picture of a fence with a gate.
Great video. Informative
Thank you so much for sharing your information on these cemeteries Robert and God bless you and everyone in your family and friends 🙏
TOR, the Parrott Family cemetery was so close to the road one should almost wear reflective safety vests for protection!
We have one that's in a parking lot of a shopping center!
Mr. T. O. Robert, I didn’t know you had normal colored shirts. 😅
Thanks
Neat car
Parrott and some of those names must have been Anglicised if they were French in origin. There were alot of French Protestants called Huguenots who immigrated to US and the British Isles. They'd surnames like Molyneaux. Great video 👍
The roadside graves common in the area mostly on back roads but the oldest graves I've seen are north of Geneva Ga on 41 and they're from the 1700s pre revolutionary war it's the Barksdale cemetery if I recall correctly
Good to see you, Other Robert! I hate it so much when progress destroys history.
Other Robert I'm sure you said you only had one shirt! 🤣
Love the new video with just the other Robert
I've never seen the surname JUMPER. I wonder if there are any still in the area
It would've been odd to see that one with the surname Jumper, if her surname was Bridge. Bridge Jumper on a stone would make me pause and wonder.. 😳 💕
One thing for sure if you make it up to Pennsylvania there’s a lot of off-road adventures like me and my grandmother were looking for my 4th great grand uncle Andrew Weikerts grave and it was in a cemetery very far off the main road.
My maiden name is WEIKEL...we may be related 😉
@@gailweikelcorrea oh okay well you never know.
@chasechristophermurry I used to live in Mount Holly Springs, PA
@@gailweikelcorrea oh okay well I don’t live in pa anymore I live in New Jersey and like my ancestors were like from around Gettysburg.
@chasechristophermurrey I live in West Virginia now, my now deceased Vietnam Veteran was from Pittsburg and had relatives that lived in Gettsburg....especially during the War between brothers...his Great Grandma told him of having picnics and watching the fighting
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Robert the Green! Please tell me it’s laundry day? No green shirt today?
That's one noisy cemetery too bad they weren't laid to rest in the other cemetary
Very interesting. Enjoy the car. What year is it. God bless.
If they were of French descent, the Name would be said like this "Pair row"👈 phonetic spelling.
Great vid 🌹⚓
PArrot GA! Boy if that isn't a intresting name.. Sound like the Parrot family had sucess... I was once read online there was a real town called Anaconda Montana! No kidding.. Lol
I've seen the old Anaconda newspaper when I'm working on ancestry stuff. 😄 Really close to Butte, and also near Deer Lodge where Montana's state prison is..
Good luck with that corvair!!😂
LOL, if you were to tell them, their family cemetery would someday be along side a highway, they would have laughed you off the plantation.
He may have been a Huguenot, or French Protestant movement, and left to save his life...
The deceased in the roadside cemetery certainly don't get any RIP. The state needs to build a concreete wall or high fence to help protect thie roadside cemetery. Easy for a car or truck could go into it or skid into it.
Someone otta clean off & paint that fence that's surrounds the grave's that's close to the road
Is there a picture of the house. Somewhere? I wonder why they did not move the cemetery.
What? No neon shirt? Did grandpa say not to wear it? Haha.
Is there another Sidestep channel? Robert keeps saying go check out the other channel?
Other Robert!!❤❤ I'm sorry but I just think of actual parrots speaking French 😂
I see now why you called this the loudest...!
