While in North Carolina we cleaned up this historic cemetery. This was one of the stop locations on our SOUTHERN DOMINATION TOUR and the job took 2 days in total. It was really very interesting to see several civil war era tombstones but it was REALLY COOL to FIND some of these lost TOMBSTONES. I wonder how long that they have been covered. There were also a lot of grave stones that were marking the grave sites of children. My Heart was full when my daughter showed interest in what I was doing here and asked if she could clean some tombstones with me. She gravitated to helping the sites of children and as her father this made be very proud. Madison also helped me to clean up the headstone of a confederate soldier which was a great opportunity to talk with her about the history of the area and the history of country's during the civil war. I found this to be an important conversation considering the recent divisions in our country. If you don't know where I stand I personally feel we should all pull our heads out of our asses and love one another but thats just my opinion.
I would also like to thank the two Mormons ( Elder Littlefield and Elder Terry ) Who helped me out with cleaning a few of the headstones. It was great to get to meet them while they are on Mission.
I really enjoyed this project and found a lot of meaning in it. I am super grateful to have the opportunity to do the work that I do for a living.
I don't operate off of donations but if you would like to help me out the best way to do that is to give the video a like, comment on the video, and share the video to your favorite social media platform like Facebook. also if you haven't yet please consider subscribing as it not only helps me out but helps to insure that you continue to get notified whenever we post a new project. Thank you so much for the support it goes a very long ways to allowing me to continue to do the work that I do and I would not be able to do it without the support of our audience.

Hey guys. I am a genealogist and family historian. I am very interested in old abandoned cemeteries. Do you happen to know if this cemetery is found on findagrave or billion graves? If so what is the name of the cemetery? I’d like to do some research on those buried there.

I've watched several of your videos before, but I finally subscribed when I watched your daughter cleaning gravestones with you! Almost brought a tear to my eyes to see such a young generation practicing good stewardship. Not only are you a sincerely good man, but also a good parent. Historic graves in any cemetery are often terribly neglected. Bless you and your family!

A dad showing his children what it is to be of service to others. To love and respect others in cleaning the headstones of people they never knew. God bless you good sir. You are a good man, a father, a husband and a hero raising up your children to be of service to others. May God Bless you and your dear family.

I am amazed/impressed by all of your generosity and hard work, Kevin, but with this one you’ve truly blown me away - for several reasons. It’s a huge project, yet you kept going. The respect you showed to veteran George Littleton and others. The memories and lessons taught to your daughter as you worked together to clean the headstones. The beautiful flowers and mulching. All I can say is to ask God to continue to bless you, your big heart, and compassion for others! You are one of a kind!! Thank you for sharing this with us. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if this video inspired others to do similar service? ❤❤❤

How crazy! this cemetery has been neglected by the city and family members. And it's being rescued by you and your family. I couldn't believe when you took the roots out of the tombstone that I could barely see. I loved when you taught your daughter to give some dignity to these tombs of people who are forgotten by society. You teach your daughter civility and respect for others, even if that being is not among us as a matter.

Kevin, these cemeteries make a great Eagle Scout project. If you find another one, reach out to the local Boy Scout Council to coordinate a project. The project should include both the cleanup as well as safely cleaning the stones , photographing and uploading to Find-a-grave, if this hasn’t been done. If the Scouts aren’t interested, then do what you do best.

I have been watching your videos for a couple of months now and have always been impressed by your positive attitude and willingness of help others with your physical efforts. The voiceover about enterprise and getting better and better, not lesser & lesser made me think differently about getting older. Anyone can see that your were very committed to this project. Thanks for all the little extras you put into it. When I was a child up in central NY State, I used to help my mother cleanup the untended graves in our little town's cemetery just before Memorial Day, One that day there was always a parade with the high school marching band leading it. The parade ended in the cemetery with veterans shooting off a salute. The heart shape was nice, but I thought you had planned it that way! Also glad to see in the comments from a thankful relative of someone buried there. Blessing to you and your increasing family.

Planting those shrubs and flowers looks really good. And the mulch in a shape of a heart is awesome. The best thing you did was putting flags on those who fought for United States of America. I'm from Canada but what you did was so awesome. You showed love for those who are buried there. I hope people will come and visit this small graveyard and plant a flower or two. I prayed that God will protect and bless your family. God loves you and the people that are buried there love you too. Cause there spirits are with you in a good and loving way. Keep up the great work you do. 😇 You are an angel sent by God. God has given each of us a guardian angel. And God will watch over you and your family. God Bless my Brother in Christ.

I watched you and your family with all your hearts working on this project. All that came to my mind when you planted that garden at the end was that you had a “heart of gold.” I woke up this morning thinking about your future-born son and this thought came to me. His name shall be Gabriel, which means man of God. Legally, his name shall be Gabriel, but his nickname to all will be Gabe (because you wouldn’t like to call him Gab). Remember that Gabriel in the Bible is an angel who announced Jesus’ birth. That was a high ranking angel. I am sure you will consider your son as an angel! I love the work that you do.

Thank you for cleaning that cemetery. My grandparents cemetery was bought by a man that didn't know it was a cemetery. It's out of state from where I live, and family keeps up our part of it. Last year a young couple took on the whole cemetery and cleaned 6 foot plus weeds, fallen trees, and garbage that people dumped. Once that clean up was made, the historical society added it to there monthly clean up. You might bring notice to this and by your kindness get this place taken care of for good. At least we were lucky to have that happen for us. As for as baby names we just welcomed baby Luke Donald into our family on Sept 3rd. I wanted it to be Luke Brian, but they wouldn't go for it. LOL

Thank you for spending the time and effort needed to clean up this cemetery. I suppose it's only natural that after immediate family members die off or move away, there is no one left to care about the graveyard or the markers, so what you did means a great deal to the community where the cemetery exists. I am a volunteer with the grass-roots effort called 'By Memorial Day' whose goal it is to clean all veteran headstones in private, public, and municipal cemeteries each year 'By Memorial Day.' We can always use more volunteers, so if anyone reading this comment wants to know more, search RU-vid for the channel, 'Honor Your DNA'. Again, thank you Kevin. Mowing lawns for free to help people out shows great character. Doing that work - and more - for people who can never thank you is even greater.

@@LawnCareJuggernaut I wrote another post but I feel something is weird with an abandoned cemetery. You might want to look into that. Even if there was a hurricane every state has an agency that has jurisdiction over cemeteries. It's because of public health. You may have stumbled into more than hidden graves. If a local paper would be interested, your cemetery finds would make wonderful stories.

I did my tree a long time ago and what I discovered is that a lot of my ancestors didn't have marked graves. Go back a little over 100 years and where they're from they would end up being in mass graves after being interred for a while (to save space) so where they are now, I'd only have a general idea...

Kevin, Thank you for taking care of the forgotten. All, I do have a family grave site similar to that, but fortunately, it's next to a church. Their markers are very old and worn off on some. That's what happens to the 1600s headstones. We, who are left to the task of taking care of our ancestors resting places, have a huge responsibility of documenting for our own offspring. I just received a message today from my cousins daughter who asked her mother. Life does go on and so does our curiosity.

"People are people everywhere." - We really are all more alike than we think. Kindness and empathy for others, no matter how different, can go so far. I can honor the soldier as a person as well as our collective history without any hatred for what his beliefs might have been. (despite them being very different from my own) I love seeing you and your family serving others so selflessly. Your daughter's tiny hands scrubbing those headstones, many of them for babies themselves, was so sweet and powerful. You all are really making the world a better place one lot at a time. The end was beautiful with the flowers.

The respect you showed the veterans is heartwarming. I was spit on at Los Angeles ariport less than an hour after I landed after flying in a cargo plane back from Vietnam with hundreds of other soldiers packed like sardines for over 20 hours. Just two days ago some sad person made dispargaging remarks about my Vietnam combat unit sticker I had on the back window of my truck. I had no idea I was a murdering sadist. When will it all stop? Your acknowlegement for these heros made me feel good. Thank you for letting me vent. Your inspirational speeches are AWESOME. I wish I could mesmorize audiences like these speakers do. THANK YOU
