_________________________________________________________
The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.

That was very common among many tribes. Not all but they were the peaceful ones the Comanche raided and killed frequently. Weakness was not a virtue. I've run into a couple stories where the white women cut their hair to avoid being scalped. A nice flowing mane of blonde or red hair was a real trophy for your teepee or war lance or on your horse's mane.

What a fantastic story of the early pioneers! I'm elder and lived ALL my life in Texas. My family also came here from Alabama around 1840. They settled close to where Abilene, Texas is located. They also had to fight the Comanche Indians. I LOVE the stories of the pioneers opening up the way for other to come and open the door for others. Texas was also fighting the Mexicans because Mexico still own this. I just want to thank you soon very much for these VERY exciting and interesting stories!

Thank you for sharing this story. I am a 6th generation Texan-my descendants arrived in Texas through Galveston, and settled very near this site, in Serbin, in the early 1850's. Even by then, there were accounts of Indian conflicts, and personal records from the Wendish settlers make mention of them. I cant imagine the struggles they faced trying to establish families, homesteads and communities. I appreciate watching this!

So kind of the owners to fence it off to protect it and to add the staircase over the fence. It was a sad story. Lots of hardships. Pioneers were a different kind of brave to go out in a strange and vast wilderness and never knowing what day would be their last due to weather, illness, injury, starvation, thirst, wildlife, or people. We have it so much more easy today due to technology and medicine. P.S. The wildlife moment was perfect with the cow mooing. 😊

Only a few children survived and they were exchanged for some produce in the province of Québec. While the older children went back to where they lived before the attack, the younger one stayed with his new family and had a full life there.

Another unbearably sad story about massacres of pioneer folk. I question why I have this morbid fascination about this topic and I think it is acknowledging the bravery and courage of women pioneers and their indomitable spirit to survive. I know many came from England to go on wagon trains across the country and met similar deaths. Then I wonder how I would have coped but I guess we all wonder that. They were just ordinary people, not trained for what they were about to face. I thank you so much for telling us these stories. Were records kept? Does anyone know how many women lost their lives due to Indian attacks? Are we, the general public, able to access online if these records do exist? This goes both ways but I don't suppose anyone kept an account of Indian lives lost until much later. Many thanks again.
