I still till this day watch little house on the prairie 🏠
I do too. 😊
Me too. But with today's pandemic some people can relate. Don't you think so.
Same
Every morning I watch Little house!
Mary just WATCHED it yesterday
When loura had a raccoon for a pet lol
I can't imagine spending a Kansas winter in a cabin like that. I think people were a lot tougher in those days
M Ward Absolutely they would have been
They were outside a lot doing work! Remember food, water, potty, livestock, etc.
you think
Once it got so hot in Kansas that the corn field started popping. When the barnyard mule saw that, he thought it was snowing and froze to death. 🐴
You know they were. No luxuries that we have today. If the stitch hits the fan tomorrow. A Lot of people wouldn't know how to survive the honest way.
I remember watching that as a kid, nice to see the original house
Thank you so much for uploading this video
I missssss
Where in kansas
Fascinating. I especially liked the Post Office. And we had desks like that when I was in grade school. Even had ink in the inkwells. I know, I'm ancient.
Not ancient; interesting
I remember that too! There were special penns for that.
Me2 i remember,
We had those old desks too in my primary school. They had the ink wells too. I’m 37 so I guess we had old desks lol. My dad sat in the same desks when he went to the school too 🤣
Living in Minnesota, I have been to Walnut Grove and to Pepin Wisconsin. Nice to see this part of her life as well. It is more accurate to say that the books were based partly on her life in Kansas, but also Wisconsin, Minnesota, and South Dakota.
I am a SW Minnesota native as well. I always had to laugh at the mountains and hilly terrain in the background of the tv show. Pretty flat prairie out there!
She lived and died in Missouri
@@johnjohnon8767 she moved to Missouri as an adult, also lived briefly in Florida, which has always made me laugh for some unknown reason. Pioneers and palm trees, so different from the stock images in my head.
I bet the Michael Landon "Pa" would have loved stripping down to that chest and getting some sun, oceanside. I wonder how he would have contrived an injury to allow it?
My grandmother said goodbye to her mother (my great grandmother) for the last time at Walnut Grove Minnesota.
I've never been to Walnut Grove, Minnesota but I need to visit. In the TV series they talked about Mankato so many times which I was born in Mankato in 1967.
The real story is what happened to the Native people who were kicked off that land to make way for the settlers
True!! In the book, Laura talks about the "red skinned men, the mohawk hair, and the endless beating of their drums at night. They had encounters with the Natives, but were never harmed.
That's not the entire story.
Exactly! Thank you for bringing that up , as my dad's side of the family is native heritage
Sounds like life
Then you should know that the Ingalls moved from this land because it was part of Indian Territory and they had to leave it.
I don't understand why they never made the traditional 12" dolls, house, furniture, and other buildings and people from the town as toys to buy. As a kid I would have loved those, and played with them endlessly.
Great idea! I would have loved and played with them, too.
My great-grandmother Doris, that raised my Mama, introduced me to the Little House on the Prairie books when I was about 9 years old. She read them to me for many years, until I begin to be able to read to her and then I did so. She had been at school teacher and really delighted in the two of us reading together. We had a very special relationship. We watched the TV show together as much as possible, as well. Precious memories. And books and TV show from a very special time in our country's history! Love them still @ 48 years old. 🙂💗
@@jen4him72 your relationship with your grandmother sounds very much like the one I had with my mamaw. She was born in 1906 in the hills of West Virginia, and grew up very much like Laura did. I learned so much from her. I loved hearing her stories of growing up. She raised 10 successful children. Her last child born in 1949 died of pneumonia at 6 months old. Growing up I would just stare at his tiny tombstone with the lamb on it. My mamaw dearly loved children and babies and was a role model to me like no other. In my later teen years I remember asking her did she miss the old days and ever want to go back. She said, "no, it was too hard." By the time she passed in January of 1990 she had cable TV, a microwave, air conditioning. a Mr. Coffee, and other modern conveniences that we take for granted. She considered these things luxuries. I'll never forget one story she told me about my oldest uncle. He was getting to the crawling stage as a baby. She was home alone, (my grandfather was a coal miner) and she needed to milk the cow. She didn't have a safe place to put uncle Charlie so he wouldn't get hurt while she went to the barn. She said she carefully tied him to the bed post to keep him safe till she could get back from milking the cow. I know she would have greatly been thankful for a play pen. We take so much for granted in today's times. Even being poor and having little my mom said she never saw her daddy wear dirty shoes and you wouldn't find as much as a gum wrapper in their yard. My grandparents were very neat and clean with everything they owned. I remember when it would come up about poor people being dirty. My mamaw would always say, "soap and water are cheap." I'm so thankful for the life's lessons that she taught me. There aren't many left like those fine old people, and I miss that generation being here on earth with us.
The newspaper in the post office that you couldn’t read full title of was the Kansas City Evening Star. It was published 1789 - 1963. There was also a morning paper but I don’t remember its name. The evening paper was dropped in 1963 and the once daily paper was call the Kansas City Star. I’m a K.C. girl and remember going to only one daily paper. The Kansas City newspaper would have been the nearest large city for them to get news from. My, how times have changed! Thanks, Chris! This was interesting.
Wouldn't that be more like 1889? Was there a Kansas City in 1789? The country was barely in existence, before the Louisiana Purchase, etc. in 1789.
@@glennlrw , thanks for your inquiry. I evidently read something wrong in my original research. The town was founded in the 1830’s & chartered in 1850. The newspaper was first published in 1880.
Thank you so much! I was a huge Little House On The Prairie fan! 😊❤️🙏
The Little House series is what created a lifelong love of reading for me. Thank you for sharing some of the sites💗💗
I am 70 years old and I still read her books.
Pretty cool man.
And to think kid's whine about life being so hard in today's era. Wow, I sound like my Pop's. I must be getting old.
lol
Imagine 5 people in that little cabin. Wow.
Only to sleep really. Too busy working.
Back then..they did what was necessary.
Hay I lived in a tenent house not much larger then this growing up. 6 kids and my parents. Quite comfy. Front room. Kitchen bedroom. Built the biys a tiny room from back porch.older days lots of prople had parents bed in front room. Outhouse. Some days I long for those days gone by
cebearce1
My grandfather built a cabin not much bigger than Laura's cabin. They had NINE children & 2 adults in it.
Imagine that there were 4 of them when they moved there, and Carrie was added while they lived there. Not a lot of privacy!
Wow, that cabin is much smaller than the one that was in the TV series. I specifically remember on upstairs loft that the girls slept in.
The cabin of the tv series was the one of Walnut Grove...not that of Kansas. If You ser the tv series the first chapter shows this litttle cabin of one room. On second chapter they moved to Minessota in Plum Creek near to Walnut Grove and Charles built the cabin with the second floor.
Besides which, TV always takes liberties, even with non-fictional stories and characters. You can't use the TV as the best educational teacher. 🙂
I loved the squeaky spring doors, what a sound. Reminds me of cool aid.
In my case, my mother is an actual Ingalls woman.
This means that it's my family.
Mom is still an off grid homesteader. Our family is still very much alive and well.
Do you know how you are related to the LIW?
@@SabrinaChach Yes, I do.
Charles Ingalls Sr. ( 3x Great Grandfather)
Hiram Ingalls (Great Great Grandfather)
Leroy Ingalls (Great Grandfather)
Lee Ingalls (Grandfather)
My Mother (Not saying her name as she is still alive and is very private)
Me.
There's a traceable lineage for you.
@@ACEDIAMOND666 Wow, that is awesome...you are not Just related but also know how. I do not even know my grandparents from my fathers side
That's awesome.
Charles and Caroline Ingalls NEVER had a son that survived infancy. Hiram was Charles' brother.
Very cool, life was harder but also easier in those times.
So I looked it up. $25.00 a month in 1872 is comparable to $533.26 nowadays. Could you even imagine teaching today’s children/teenagers with all the BS, and back talk teachers put up with, and getting paid only $533.06 BEFORE taxes? No way! I wonder what the pay discrepancy was for male teachers vs. female teachers in 1872? I’m going to have to look that up.
I'm sure the wages were determined by where the schools were & what the town could afford. This was long before they before the Feds took over & turned them into a disaster.
Glad to see so many folks still appreciate my Mother's family history.
Your mother’s family history?!?
There's 1 problem with that Rose Wilder (laura's Daughter) DID NOT Have any Children.
she was the biggest inspiration in my life. i wanted to live like her since i was very young. my home is full of antiques. that i only would know of by the shows. i have all of the dvds. love the ingalls
@@salimas7979 Yes. My mother is an Ingalls woman.
@@andrewplummer1196 Yes, I am well aware of that. I never said I was her descendant. I said that I am, in fact, a direct descendant of Charles Ingalls.....Pa Ingalls Grandfather, who he was named after......Reproductively speaking,
Like Rose, I am unable to have children. I have none to leave my last name, my estate, nor my legacy.....such is life.
Just a though in regard to the school house...I doubt a one room school house would have had a nurses room. I have a feeling the building was later used as a residence (home) and that section was partitioned off to make a kitchen.
I can't even imagine living with a family in the little cabin. Love the school. It's beautiful. The old mailboxes are so cool. Just think back in the 1800s it took weeks sometimes months for mail to be delivered. I love little places like this and just seeing the history and how they lived back then.
America's favourite family 'show'. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. Another interesting video, as always :)
AND CANADIAN ALSO
Chris, can you believe that bed was considered a full double bed in which both Charles and Caroline slept and the children had to make do with just a blanket on the floor and remember there was no indoor plumbing or running water, just an outhouse that was freezing cold in the winter. Thanks for sharing.
It's pronounced O-sage.
Thats what I thought too.
Exectly
My husband and I went there a couple years ago. It was such a cool thing to experience.
I’ve been watching Little House for probably the past 8 months or so (for the millionth time). I drove home from Tulsa OK to Casper WY for Christmas and passed a sign for this on my drive! I wasn’t sure if it was the real property or not but now I’ll be sure to stop there sometime!
Another interesting upload Chris. Thank you. 👊👍☮️
I heard this is the exact location, found by some local historians; (I wish they would tell their story of how they found it!) & newscaster Bill Kurtis parents own this land, or bill and his sister do now. It is so great of the Kurtis family to allow the public to visit !
So interesting thank you! Would love to visit someday.
Kansas? What about Walnut Grove MN? The TV series was filmed in Simi Valley, CA.
What about desmit
I was in a one room school in the country in the 1950s. It wasn't as nice as this one..
I have all the books and dvd's of little house on the prairie. So thank you for showing this! I am big fan! Greetings from the Netherlands! ☺️👍❤️
I had no idea it was in Kansas! I know so many people watched and loved the show!
Michael London was a great actor!
I'm sure they spent many days/nights communicating with one another and listening to one another It seems so peaceful! No cells TV's. The post office is awesome! What beautiful property!
Who owns the property now! Thanks for sharing!
Love the share Thank you Love the animals you showed Donkey Horse saying No Cute
I know I say this a lot, but this is one of my favorites that you have done. I would love to have a house in the country, but not as small as the Ingalls cabin. Good job, Chris. Love your videos. There is a lot to be said about the simpler life.
It is hard to believe 5 people lived in one bed!
Lawson Farms Homestead , maybe a trundle bed to pull out at night for the children.
Laura recorded that she and her sister, Mary, had their own bed. Carrie would have been in a trundle bed.
No caretaker of the house? People are evil, it could be vandalized
That's not a replica of the TV show . Cool though.
Love the donkies, & as always your channels.
Great to see this. We saw her home in Missouri. Very cool as well. Happy Travels.
Anyone happen to notice what was written on the outside of the mason jar in the 'nurses' area? 'Leeches' It would truly suck to have to use those. ;)
😂pun intended!?!
Not much room there for 4 people and a baby!!
Her sisters didnt have a long life from what I seen on youtube
In the TV series this is the place they built and meet Mr. Edwards in the pilot movie for the series.
Great video. Love the old school and post office. I couldn't imagine living in a log cabin. Very interesting
I like the show, but the books are so much better. Would love to see this in person, but can't right now, so I really appreciate this video. Thank you so much!!

Hey Chris. Thank you for doing videos like these. They're really fun to watch and most importantly, informative. Keep up the great work brother. I follow all the time.
Its so incredible how far we have come since then. Thank you for such a great video. We must never forget those who sacrificed so much so we can live as we do today. Much respect and abundant blessings and prayers.
This is bs...they started in Wisconsin, moved to Minnesota, ended in South Dakota. She was too busy trying to survive the prairie to write until later in life and in SD. I cross Plum Creek fairly regularly.
Are you saying they never lived in Kansas?
Actually they lived in Kansas for only a few short years. It's where they met Mr Edwards.
That sounds much more accurate. Hollywood puts a sweet little spin on everything to sell stories & people fall for it every time.
Show us Laura’s grave please
The newspaper was called the Kansas City evening star
So Weird I haven't been getting your Notification's... Uhggghhhh
I loved this. I am 70 have all her books and still watchbher tv shows. I feel like i should have been born during this time
I watched little house, I love stories about the Pioneer days, they were strong people in those days!

Jan. 24, 2021---Thanks for the video as I always wondered what it looked like. Never read the books, but both sisters have. Used to drive truck all over the U.S. and one time I came within 10 miles of this place. Had the time to take a look, but didn't know what the road conditions were and not about to take 70 feet of truck and trailer down an unknown road.
I love the books but I'm missing #9😪😞
So these structures were just brought there for preservation? What did they have to do with Laura’s life? They weren’t the structures her family actually used? I’m confused about this video…
It's 2021 and to this day I still watch Little House On The Prairie
Me too!! Is like therapy to me....
@@mauragvera1672 yes. It's a little drama without the drama if that makes any sense. Lol
Lovethis. Read all the book when I was younger. Always watched the show. Thanks for sharing this.
Cool!❤❤❤
The Engles family were actually in South Dakota. My grandmother went to school with Laura in Erwin.
She wrote her books in Mansfield Missouri, my dad lived about three miles down the road from her and walked by her house every day on the way to school, he even has a Bible autographed by her, not sure what his age was at the time but he is 83 now.
History is a closer than people think.
Him and his friend were selling Bible's donated to the school to provide money for their wood working shop, she purchased both boxes from my father and his friend and signed signed a copy for my dad and his friend.
My father still has the Bible and the cedar chest he made in shop with the money for the Bible's.
Some day in the future (hopefully far in the future) they will be passed down to me and then down to one of my children.
(SM)me and my TITO/UNCLE FILIPINO-AMERICAN FAMILY as a white race foreigner life...
The actual filming location was in Simi Valley. We used to walk through through their during the summers before it all disappeared.

One series was shown when I was young, it acctuly rated very porely on local TV. It wasn't till I was older that I saw the show. It was billed as a religious comedy when I was growing up and have always seen it as such. Oh also I'm not American before you ask. So this was surprising to see that it was about a real family. With real lives. Then you Americans could say the same thing about my ancestors here in Australia. We'er (My families) from Bushrangers and outlaws. People think that our ancestors were just stories and local ledgned. But were real people. You just don't know till you see these places or talk to Ancestors and people who were there.
I believe Caroline (Laura’s mom) grew up in Brookfield, WI. Interesting fact.
Me too ❤️
"I can't imagine spending a nasty winter here. Not a whole lot to do." What? They had a lot to do. It's called work. These days you do have to use your imagination to conjure up what kind of work they had to do. If you have one.
I wonder if anyone now days can live like that and survive. Especially with no Phones. Tv. Internet etc. And nowdays the schools don't do The Pledge Allegiance to The Flag either
In the 70s I wondered what was this show and why it had high ratings. Now I watch it all the time and now I know why.
Watch little house on the prarie everyday, loved it since I was young, also have the collection❤
This is facinating.. But I think my butt could not take that wagon ride 😂
I'm glad to be in a generation where we have lights and indoor plumbing
You are totally wrong the original places in Western Minnesota and they moved to Eastern South Dakota also it was not a log cabin it was a sod house
I love it when the well water is clear, cold and good.
I live only 15 minutes east:
The Little On The Prairie.
I loved the series.
So interesting! Thank you!
Wow thanks for the tour. I love the show Little House.😊
WHAT A LIFE!!!! JUST LIVING WAS A "CHORE"!!!
I live very close to this- I never get tired of visiting it! Lovely video ❤
It’s pronounced O Sage. Stress on the O
