So glad Jacksfilms told the world about you. Your videos are like having a personal tour guide who just leads you places every once in a while. Very casual and friendly. Keep it up!!
I think this might be a lesson in maybe don’t gorge on Oysters coming off some intense stomach pain that you quelled with cider vinegar.
Arsenic tends to persist in soils being a metal. As the alleged poisoning of Mr. Gibbs took place in one day, it would not have entered tissue or bone massively but traces should still be present in the grave area. Zachary Taylor was exhumed in 1989 to see if he died of arsenic poisoning (he didn't) and he died in 1850. Might be an interesting project for an enterprising Medical Examiner.
I don’t think she did poison him. Especially since bad oysters can cause death even today.
I wonder about Mary's headstone and where she is buried. Someone should make one for her: "I didn't do it."
Taking into account the symptoms of pain and thirst, he may have had gallbladder stones causing bile duct blockage. Anecdotal reports claim that vinegar which contains malic acid may temporarily relieve gallbladder symptoms. Then
Those are... not the symptoms of arsenic poisoning... and he was already sick. Seems like they should not have been allowed to put that on the tombstone.
Funny how William didn't have money to spend on an autopsy and investigation, but could sit at the gravestone every night and even hire armed guards. It sounds like William was unemployed, just like his brother.
The saddest thing about these feuds. They go off into obscurity, and eventually, nobody remembers or cares. People have short lives, and they waste their time on useless pursuits of vengeance. Until everything becomes an obscure history of stupidity and arrogance. The Bible explains the human condition as a "chasing after the wind." It's insane that people treat each other so horribly for something that won't matter later on.
While she may not have been trying to kill him, she didn’t do her husband any favors serving up a huge tray of oysters when he was already sick, I mean why not a nice soup broth & crackers or something? 😂
My family owned the house across the street near this cemetery at 166 packardville rd (built in 1870) from 1959-2022. I was the one that sold the house in 2022. I grew up playing ghost in the graveyard, with my cousins, in that graveyard, and had many a scary nights afraid of being poisoned.
They found the body of an ancient Chinese Empress who had died of a heart attack but rather than rotting away she became what is called a "wet mummy."
In New Hampshire there’s a woman buried in the same graveyard as her murderer. Her headstone calls him out by name!!
There’s one in my local churchyard (Wolstanton, Staffordshire, England),a headstone of a girl accusing the father of her unborn child of poisoning her.
Great story. You really do your homework. There is a headstone in a graveyard here in SE Michigan that has the Enterprise carved in it and the phrase: “ Beam me up Scotty, there is no intelligent life down here” I chuckle every time I see it.
There's a very old head stone in a local Cemetery dad showed me 60 yrs ago. I'm be 69 on my birthday, here's the inscription as best as I remember.
I loved the bit at the end with the town meeting hall. I judge Mary as innocent too, but I wonder how the oyster dialogue went down. My feeling is that Warren suggested it. “Mary, I know I’m still reeling from gastritis, but you know what sounds good right now? A heaping pile of oysters.”
Knowing how social media twists information into knots of misinformation and outright lies, I can only imagine how bad the gossip was back then.
You really hit a home run by going the extra mile with your research and being able to tell quite a story. I'm a veteran cemetery walker, and I've seen all kinds of interesting causes of death on headstones in my travels, primarily in Texas and Oklahoma. Rabies, killed by lightning, railroad accidents, "bit by rattlesnake", families buried together where the headstone(s) reference a tornado/cyclone, and "Killed by Indians", with a few references to "scalping." One up in Wizard Wells, TX notes ""killed by base ball", and a few in Calvert, TX note "yellow fever."
Someone should make a small epitaph stone and install it at the base of the head stating “The rumors surrounding Gibbs’ death may have been greatly exaggerated.”
