Very enjoyable, it's nice to hear the history and folklore as you walk around your area, I'm from Scotland ,and I'm always interested in the story's of my area. Well done with your story's and walks 😊
Really interesting, especially the part with the milking stool on Rosina's resting place. We thoroughly enjoyed your video, as we always do. Many thanks.
Cheers Richard glad you liked it, it has since occurred to me since that the anniversary of her death was last Tuesday so maybe that's why it was there!
Great video Jim, fascinating stuff mate, sounds like she had sad and messed up time, sad really ent it, i love that that stool was there, amazing! The coffin on the roof was a great old story too, really enjoyed that mate.
Cheers Mike I reckon I might have to show my own stool again just to prove that I didn't put I there! The anniversary of her death was last Tuesday so maybe that's why it was there.
Thank you Jim for this; it’s good to have a visual representation of the story of Rosina Massey by Roger Bolton. I’m so pleased my book was of help to you in the making of it too! I was very lucky to be able to get a copy a few years ago and once I’ve watched your video a few times more, I would like to add a couple of points if that’s ok. Best wishes, Claudia ⭐️
Oh it's you, hello Claudia! Thanks for the book it was my only source. Yes please do add anything, I'm now wondering if Rosina took her own life what with the candle, hammer and coin. Heart failure? Digitalis maybe?
@@jim.m75 hi Jim yes it’s me 😊 ~ I’m also wondering if Rosina took her own life… she would have likely had knowledge of herbs etc. She was apparently Gerald her husbands, first wife and according to stories they had up to 9 children, two of whom did not survive.. after she died, he went on to marry Eva Byrn. But it appears that Rosina influenced him greatly especially in the area of her interests and belief in spiritualism. He was also a Druid with The Ancient Order of Druids from 1880 to 1906; he was elected ‘Chosen Chief’ which was an honoury but not formal membership and included minor duties. He also was a keen lecturer and writer about ancient Egyptian culture amongst other non Christian subjects.
Ello Timbo, I just looked up mockbeggar but it isn't in my book and Wikipedia gives no explanation either! Excellent name though. I like 'lost in the mists of time', a good way of looking at it.
Absolutely fascinating ! Dunno if I'm just weird, but I think it's rather nice that someone leaves a stool by Rosina's grave as a sign of respect. The poor woman had a bit of a shitty life. I'm afraid I can't help with the place name thing. Be a bit of both would be my guess.
Yes you are weird zed, you wrote the Spiroverse books! It eluded me at the time but I was filming her grave two days before the anniversary of her death so maybe that's why the stool was there. Could be.
@@jim.m75 Yes, that could be why the stool was there. Seems logical anyway. You might have a point about the Spiroverse books. Although Metallic said that the prepper who the first one scared the hell out of seemed to think I was insane. 🤣
@@jim.m75 Sweet. That's great. I am also a descendent of Scandinavian Vikings. My surname Doyle in Irish is Ní Dhuìll which means Dark Haired Blue Eyed Stranger.
I see you have cats. I have 3, Timmy is my Familiar, Lírogí (which means balls in English) 🤣🤣🤣🤣 My 3nd Cat Clara I adopted her. She's the quite one. This Saturday I've to go to Co. Laois to collect my Main Coon Kitten. (you don't want to keep ow how much that has cost me) 🥹😪
@@user-adoyle123 nice, I'm a Moriarty, my grandad came over from Thurles. Excuse my dire Gaelic, I think the original form was something like Moirtach and that was supposedly from a viking word meaning 'navigator' or 'seafarer'
@@jim.m75 The name Moriarty is an Anglicized version of the Irish name Ó Muircheartaigh [oː ˈmˠɪɾʲɪçaɾˠt̪ˠiː] which originated in County Kerry in Ireland. Ó Muircheartaigh can be translated to mean 'navigator' or 'sea worthy', as the Irish word muir means sea (cognate to the Latin word mare for 'sea') and ceardach means skilled.
I used to work at the college.There is a video somewhere of a car driving down the lanes that witnesses a vanishing car ahead. I'm not commenting on it's authenticity.
