I'm appalled & disgusted with Dollar General & the state of NC (I'm a resident of NC) for allowing them the graves to be paved over. Shame on all of them!!! I don't typically ship at dollar general but I never will again. Furthermore I come from a family full of history lovers. I will make sure they know the story.

How great to have such a detailed family history. Very impressed with D2.

Dan, I could listen to you talk all day and night. Thank you for sharing your stories.

Dan you are so full of knowledge. I just love listening to you. That must be the funeral director in you. Thank you you and Robert for what you do.

It is always special to see kin and friends remembered on Adventures Into History. The personal touch of your channels is a very important facet, the content adding special connection between you, Dan, guests, and the viewers. A reminder that History lives in us all. Enjoyed hearing that Briley is a family name. Dan is so sweet to have carried the name forward. Always appreciate Dan's stories and knowledge. Beautiful unusal stone, great job cleaning it. Thanks for the revisit too. Enjoyed!! ❣️❣️👍👍

I'm 61 and sadly no one in my family are interested in our family history, so my knowledge of it will die with me, I lived with my grandmother, so I can go back to the 1830's with our history.

So glad you restored her stone. We are the reason they lived.

Dan and Robert, thank you for sharing your lives with us. It's so important to keep our history alive. Blessings from Michigan.

You’re a good friend, Robert! Your friend Dan is telling the story of his ancestor, and you pull out the D2 and your scrub brush and clean up her headstone!

I’d like to see a tour of Dan’s house. I’d imagine it’s a museum quality historical depository.

It's so sad when a cemetery is destroyed. My family headstones were destroyed and lost from 1600 in long island and housing complex went over them. It's sad and hurtful. I'm sorry Dan. Thank you for sharing your gg grandmother with us

Thank god for you two, is there anyone else that takes care of the forgotten graveyards?

Always enjoy Dan’s story telling and his historical knowledge. Thank you Robert and Dan.

Love seeing the transition with D2 and always enjoy listening to Dan discuss history. Thanks for sharing.

Sounds like a very Irish, Scottish name. Beautiful! Thank you for the history and for all of your efforts and sharing with us.

I know your feelings, Dan. I recently found my 2nd great-grandmother's grave. It's very touching. ❣️❣️

Dan a man of history he knows bout stuff

D2 keeps working for weeks, glade you have such great family records, my father was made an orphan due the Spanish flu, we have no records to follow

The D2 is so amazing and that marble is so beautiful! Love hearing all the history as usual!

Love the Kinston,NC callout. The battle of Kinston was on December 14,1862 and was part of the Goldsboro expedition for the Union Army. The battle before that was the Battle of New Bern with Georgia parts of the CSA fighting the Union. He probably died after the battle in one of the houses or Churches that were used as medical hospitals if he died in 1863. I’m from the Area so this is cool to hear about it and had people in my family fighting at the battle

I love how dan tells the stories about is family and others

So wonderful to find relatives graves from back in history. I can only go back to my great grandparents on my mom’s side as they came here from Germany and nothing on my dad’s side as he came here from Italy. It’s sad that I can’t go back very far on either side 😢

love that vest look on you..very nice 👍

Came up really well, can't believe they put a car park over those graves, gosh how sad.

Pretty stone! Blue and white!

Thank you guys for sharing. Family history is the best history. I took my 19 year old son to my families old homestead cemetery. It was an awesome lesson in history and the resilience his ancestors had in order to survive. Love your content and I am going to take D2 to the cemetery to clean their headstones.

I truly love hearing stories of family history, I had amazing time doing my family

Gosh, worthy of your attention, for sure.

Incredible cleaning of This lovely Lady’s Headstone. What a blessing y’all are good folks. Enjoy your channel

That is a beautiful headstone. Thank you for sharing this bit of family history of Dan's family.

Im a 7th generation Texan and my earliest Texas ancestors settled in Rusk and Cherokee counties in east Texas! So funny to hear they didnt like it that much and went back! Texas at that point was still very rural and un developed, many members of my family were from Georgia and Tennessee areas before they came to Texas in the Mid to late 1800s.

Mr. Dan is a True Treasure and a Treasure Trove of Knowledge as well! How Blessed you are to have him there with you, Robert!

hi robert, hi dan, i hope you are both good. this episode gives me enough to have another adventures binge watch. i love these and it's really nice to learn some of dan's history.

Thank you for your family history, Dan. It's so nice to have details on our ancestors. I have some info on my mother's side but I wish I could find out more details. Thank you, Robert. for keeping these old stones cleaned up and maintained. I love hearing these stories.

great story Dan and Robert, it almost makes you emotional when you see all the years of dirt and what have you come off the stone and you can read her name and the inscriptions on it again

I grew up about 20 miles from Kinston NC. It is awesome you can trace your family back that far

Hello and very beautiful head stone and clean up! Thank you for sharing this story with us as it's always good to remember toy families history and can share their experiences and life .thanks again and take care. Ps it's very beautiful now that you can read it planly.

That D2 stuff is amazing. Dan great grandmother head stone looks like it’s marble. Could it be? I kinda envy all of you knowing your family tree n many of their burial sites. On my mother’s side all is from Alabama n I give anything to know the town or county they were buried in. Of course my mother n father were cremated n their ashes are on a big hill top in Blairsville,Georgia. I’m the only living relatives left on my mamas side. Robert, I think this a wonderful thing that you are doing in sharing n documenting grave sites (cemeteries) n using that great D2 , it’s like magic. ♥️😊👍👍🌟

My Great grandpa and Great grandma Dyer couldn't afford headstones. So the highway got them paved over,😢

Very nice! I love that Dan knows this much about his family history. This gravestone looks 100% better than it did. Very impressive how the D2 cleans everything up. It's a gorgeous cemetery. Shout out to Dan for giving credit where credit's due. Mr John deserves some recognition for his work keeping the cemetery looking so nice. P.S.(I gotta say, I'm loving your vested style. Looks fancy! Very handsome and professional looking.😊)

Rober, you are a kind and thoughtful soul!

I just adore you two!!

Love your videos and enjoy watching them. May the lord bless and protect you Robert and Dan bringing out the past history

Mowina Briley is on my family tree as a distant cousin! Our connection is with the "Gray/Jarrett" family dating back to 1700's Virginia!... Just wanted to put that in the comments and say hello there distant cuzz! 👋🏾😃😄 Faithful follower from Oklahoma! Love your channel.

Thanks, y'all. Enjoyed the video.

Such a beautiful head stone

That's cool you found and repaired your great great grandmother tombstone.

Love your, Sidestep adventures episodes 😁!! I've been watching it about a, Not Quite a year, but sense last fall!!! I really think it's Awesome, the way you, give , New Life, to those who have passed, by Cleaning up their, Grave Stones!!! God Bless!!! 🙏. From, Burlington, Colorado!!!

Thank you this is so beautiful God bless you both 🙏❤️

My step father dragged us around Europe while he was stationed there going from one cemetary to another. We mostly played on the playground while they took pictures and talked to people. It was funny how the borders changed over the years. We met a relative that was chief of police in Luxenbourg and farmers in Bitburg and many others on the way collecting the names of mire relatives. Wish I had paid more information but we were young. My brother has all the info.

How lovely. Thank you.❤❤🙏

Awesome family history guys. Dan's visit to N.C. for confederate relative burial place reminds me of my neck of woods a/lot of unmarked civil war graves. Many warehouses going up but little plots are left with unmarked civil war dead. In Resca Ga. After the battle, John Green's family returned to their plantation and the sight that met them there was almost more than they could bear. The bodies of confederate soldiers were buried in crude makeshift graves all across their yard. Compelled by a sense of respect to those who had fallen in action, Mary J. Green and her sister began collecting the bodies to bury properly. Though poverty was rampant, the 2 Green daughters wrote friends asking for any amount money they could give. Col. John Green, the superintendent of the Georgia Railroad, gave his daughters 2.5 acres of land for use as a cemetery for these soldiers. With the money collected and the land provided, the 2 daughters & their mother began work on what is now called the Resaca Confederate Cemetery. This particular cemetery is designated for the soldiers that fought in the Battle of Resaca which took place May 14 & 15, 1864. From the two days of battle, there are only three graves where the death date is listed as May 15, 1864. The remaining graves are listed as May 14, 1864. Some of the soldiers were identified but there are still 424 of the 450+ graves marked as 'unknown'.

Oh what an improvement looks so much better

I love watching you guys. I got excited hearing you mention Kinston. Right in my area. If there is any memorial or something of the sort here I'd love to locate it.

The headstone is looking great. That D2 is great stuff.

Thank you. I love your story's and the work you do. I miss those walks with my grandparents.

Great video Dan and Robert - as always 😀 Dan, I loved the comment about being kin to everyone under the sun🤣 Well, I am one of those "under the sun" relations from NC. My great great grandfather was Samuel David Briley. The first time you mentioned in a past video of your great great grandmother Mowina Briley and the relations from Anson County NC I began digging into my Briley branch of our family tree and was able to connect to your Mowina Briley, which puts us as 7th cousins.😀 I am one of the four historians in my family and have heard the phrase "related to eveyone under the sun" more times than I can count!! 🤣🤣 In addition to family trees, I also just love discovering old family cemeteries, which makes family history research all the more fun!! 😀🤣

That cleaned up really nice,it was so blackened before. Lovely cemetery. Remembrance is a very good thing. Y'all are doing well.😊❤from KY.

Very nice job cleaning that Grave stone. 👌

0:43 My gg grandfather fought in the battle in Kinston, NC in 63. His name was Thomas Carter in 4th NC Calvary, company C. I am so sorry and shocked your forefather’s grave was decimated.

I would love to see a time lapse of these headstones or one anyway. That would be interesting to watch. And D2 would make a great sponsor 👍

Great job on the stone..

Great job, Dan and Robert !

Always fascinating history.

My Lewis family left Wilkinson Co for Texas and ended up returning, too.

thanks for sharing this family History etc. - Very Inspiring 👍💯D-2 seems great results💯

Dan I went thru Kinston yesterday and saw the confederate store and saw the dollar general store this was so interesting thanks guys

Did this church not keep records of the burials. A plot map of the site. It would be nice to put some inexpensive metal markers on the graves, but i also realize that it is really easier to keep it mowed without all the markers. So maybe a plot map available to see. I found my great great grandfather's grave just checking out cemeteries. No one knew where he buried . So i finally had a death date for him

Beautiful! what a difference a month made! Nice job!

Gosh that's great. Nice work you guys! Such a tragedy about those servicemen, though. Especially because it was known that they were there. Keep up the good work. Love your vids.

There's a Briley Parkway here in Nashville. Any connection? Named after Clifton Beverly Briley (January 11, 1914 - September 14, 1980) was an American attorney and politician, the first mayor of the newly consolidated metropolitan government of Nashville and Davidson County in Tennessee.

Nice to see someone I watch on paranormal caught on camera. The footsteps in the cabin

Thank you for all you guys do

Born and raised in the town over , of Goldsboro nc . Home of Seymour Johnson Air Force base .❤ I grew up going to kinston nc .

Looks so good now. When it was wet,the marble pattern on the back looks like an angel with the shape of the stone. Did anyone else see that or was it supposed to look like that?

Dan you amaze me knowing your heritage,was this handed down to you?

Thats a beautiful headstone!

I just saw you on Paranormal Caught on Camera! Great catch!! 👻💀

Thanks Dan❤

That stuff sure works. A biologic takes time. It's like killing moss on the concrete. Have to kill the stuff first, and it will fall away eventually. Now, having run detail shops for several years, I had to train alot of employees how to spray expensive cleaners. Not as a criticism, but you need to practice application of that D2. Get a spray bottle of Windex, and go to a window to practice. You have to start at the BOTTOM first, because if you start at the top, you will always get lines running down, that will leave traces of better cleaning. So, hold the bottle in your hand, and starting at the bottom corner, spray and move at the same time. Use your wrist to move back and forth, at the same time you're spraying. Don't just keep squeezing in a random form, every which way. Go across the bottom, and move your way up line by line to the top. Efficiency to save on product. Move the fan as you squeeze, back and forth back and forth. That way you don't have pockets of overkill chemical in circles all over the surface. An even fan of equal amounts of chemical saves money, and creates an even surface to work with.

I had a aunt named Moenna she was Cherokee and married into I believe our Cody side or maybe Costner just not sure. A very interesting person

💚

My great great grandmother was a Walker she married a Gordon.

I live in the county next to Rusk County so if y'all want some pictures of those graves, I'd be more than happy to locate them and photograph.

Keep up the good work.

I Wish I could find a picture of a headstone of my 2nd great grand father whom is buried in a cemetery in a part of Georgia:-(. Great that you can have them close to where you are as to go out and repair your 2nd great grandmother's headstone and also, With Robert's help clean it up as well..Wondering do you have any Cantrell/ Cantrill families living anywhere around you both in Georgia??

awesome job!!!!!!

Very nice.

Very nice work fellas!

That's awesome 😊😊

❤ you’re channel

What?! Mr. Dan can't remember everything?!? I don't believe it. 🥰

Try using Orvus on the stone first, then D2. It gets the big stuff off safely. It helps the D2 work faster.

Okay, Dan says he isn't related to "everyone around here," then it's all about cousin, aunt, sister. Are you sure you aren't related to everyone? My Canadian ancestors were early Irish Catholic settlers of New Brunswick who stayed close to their roots. Through one marriage and another, I'm related to a group of settler families. I hope the cemetery finds a caretaker. It is a big transition from the poached and desecrated cemetery you're doing recovery on.

❤❤❤

My late brother-in-law was from that area

Did the church record where burials were?

are you saying McGourk. I'm not sure how to spell it but I'm related to them somewhere around Thomaston.
