An Historic Barn Find - Paul Harvey - The Rest of the Story 

Paul Harvey's stories were always so interesting! Thank you for bringing them back to life.

Why should we doubt this . !all facts found lead to the conclusion enough to warrant the history of this is the wood of the MAYFLOWER.. GOD BLESS.

What a stunning list descendants, thank you for covering this story. Yes, the British Navy certainly did rule in it's day with their masterful ships. Very incredulous to realize pieces of the Mayflower would end up on rural farms. What a wonderful Thanksgiving day, just saw "Napoleon", came home to Brad Dison upload, and now off to a feast, color me grateful in ALL shades!!!!!

I am a proud descendant of those who were on the Mayflower. A Mayflower “ship in a bottle” is a memento/reminder i cherish. ⛰🌲👨‍🌾🇺🇸🙏

Really enjoyed hearing this story. I have been researching my ancestors and it amazes me how much history is intertwined.

This is the first I've heard of relics from the Mayflower surviving time, wear, and tear. Very interesting! Love Paul Harvey! I'm glad you replay his videos or soundtracks. His style never gets old and he always has me hanging onto every world.

This is an amazing story ive never heard! Thanks for sharing, Brad! My ancestor was James Watkins, the right hand of Captain John Smith, who came over on the original 1607 voyage, and according to family lore was the namesake of Virginia's James River. Thanks again, Brad, and i hope your family had a blessed Thanksgiving!

It’s truly amazing how they get all the back stories from all these historical events

That's a good story. I never heard of what happened to the Mayflower. Is it possible that wood survived that long? I believe that it could being kept dry and protected from the elements. Also I'm sure that the outer timber are probably infused with salt after drying out totally and leaving any salt in bedded into them. I hope one day that they can test it somehow to say it is and it can be preserved for future generations to see. As always please keep doing these. I enjoyed Paul Harvey as a kid and now again as an Grandfather.

Brad, oOnce again, I am amazed at the wealth of information you and Paul Harver have uncovered and presented!!!

My Nanuet NY neighbor was a descendent. She threw a Christmas 🎄 time high tea every year !

Thanks Brad 😊

Wow! What a story. That would be something worth visiting. Happy Thanksgiving.

Very good Brad! Happy Thanksgiving!

Very interesting!!!

Great story.

Its very plausible. I believe it is an authentic Mayflower barn.

Yelp. It's a possibility ! Happy Thanksgiving Brad ✌️😎

This are great. When i was i kid my dad and I drive across america. We listen to Paul Harvey alot. Would eve relisten to him as we drove through different radio stations. Thanks

Great story for Thanksgiving. As for could the barn still have beams from the Mayflower? I believe it could have been quite possible. I think since England doesn't seem to have as wood in their area as the USA, I am thinking they would save any wood they could get a hold of. I don't believe, and I could be wrong, that England has bad storms as the USA. Meaning their barns don't get damaged like they do here. I know of about 20 or so barns near me, that were damaged in tornados and high winds. The roofs were partially blown off and nobody repair them. They were slowly destroyed, until nothing was used from them. I believe , could be wrong, That English farms know how hard it is to get wood to replace damaged beams. so they take better care of what they have. I saw people tear down a barn that had Cyprus wood in it and burned it all, just a half mile from my house. I ask them if I could have the wood, but they said they didn't have time to mess with it. To say I was upset would be an understatement. Anywa,y have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

There are a lot of houses built from ship's that ran aground after fleeing the European continent.

I was CERTAIN you were going to end with, "And now you know the rest of the rest of the story." 😁

My (many times removed) Myles Standish got here(North America) on the Mayflower.

Good story! I'm one of those 35 million Americans that is a descendent of a Mayflower passenger.

Love the channel brother 👍

Paul Harvey did a story about how studies showed that the manna in the desert in the Old Testament was essentially Post Toasties of today. Do you have a way to find and play this recording for us? Love your channel and hearing these stories again! ❤️

Why not!!!

❤👍

Of course it’s possible

My family is related to John Hancock.

❤❣️😉❤️🙏💯%🙏

There is no reason the wood should not have survived this long, and no reason to doubt that one of the owners of the ship would have repurposed its timbers once it was no longer seaworthy.

wow
