My friend just returned from Ireland. He told me about the "Kindred Spirits memorial which commemorates the 1847 donation by the Native American Choctaw People to Irish famine relief during the Great Hunger, despite the Choctaw themselves living in hardship and poverty and having recently endured the Trail of Tears." Awesome

Yes, the Choctaws raised up around $170, which it would be equivalent to $5,000 in today's money. What is so really awesome is that, during the time of covid and the Navajo Nation was struck hard with the sickness, and perishing most of the tribal members, The Irish people turned around and helped the Navajo Nation as well.

I've been looking for the resting place of Alfred Ingram (Ingraham) and Mollie Cole Ingram Johnson. I've been unable to find either. They were on the 1870 census in Grayson County, the first census after emancipation. Around 1878 they were married and migrated up into old Woodville in the Indian Territory. Two of their children are buried in the Potts slave cemetery in Pottsboro. I would like to make a request. I was able to make it to Oakwood last year but I only had an hour to look around before traveling back to south Texas. Mollie's daughter and grandson are buried there. But I would really love for someone to take a better look Potts slave cemetery in Pottsboro. Findagrave has Solomon Ingram (Alfred and Mollie's son) listed for two different graves. That just doesn't make sense. I can't find anyone to volunteer to confirm who the second grave with his name belongs to. On the Findagrave picture it looks like the second grave with Solomon's name actually says "Cole" and if so, that is Mollie's maiden name. It would be awesome to find possibly her parent buried there. Thank you.

I live in Baltimore, Maryland and worked at the Old Veterans Hospital at Fort Howard. It was a SPOOKY place to work in the 1980s. Like this building it was eventually fenced off and parts are now demolished. Sadly, these hospitals are being eliminated to erase the history of the public hospitals that used to treat people for free. The people in those buildings went through hell. They get replaced with modernized medical establishments. IF they are like Johns Hopkins, they get built on old cemeteries where people were provided free burials before the corporate cemetery industry was created. Before this there was the old world where every NATURAL illness had a natural root or plant to cure it. Now, supernatural practices created supernatural illness and we need trained medical professionals to tell us how we feel. Much love from Baltimore, Maryland - Loved the story.

Phoebe and Betsey were daughters of Daniel Anderson and Jenny Baptiste/Battiest. Most Bohanan's in the Sardis area and cemetery is my line.

Thank You Sir! These men are Russian Jews and the foreign lettering is Hebrew! On the day preceding Yom Kippur, known as Erev Yom Kippur (lit.

These activities generally relate to the themes of the holiday, but are forbidden or impractical to do on Yom Kippur itself.( Source Wikipedia 5/2/2024 "5647" is the Jewish calendar and = 1887 (?) of the Gregorian calendar (via Google).

Holland Coffee, what a name. Unique and cool. I'd love to have the last name of Coffee. What a conversation piece in and of itself. How sweet that the pet cemetery is still there. Sophia Porter was a brave lady! Can you imagine, a lady back then, in her layered dress, racing her horse through the water, her dress heavy with water, and not stopping until she got the message out. Saving many lives! What a gal. Loving the enclosed cemetery with the iron fence and gate. Those are my favorites. Sophia got herself a grand send-off with a majestic headstone. Very nice that you were able to find Holland Coffee's grave as well. Thank you for the interesting history lesson. They all sounded like good people. Unless I missed something - then sorry! Looks like the area is tended to. That's always nice to see. Be safe and happy travels!☺️

Or was itt like the Oregon Trail where groups of families went together not.knowing if they would see. Friends or distant relatives again because there was no common end point. Did some groups settled in different places. It would be great to have a map visual showing different starting and ending points. I really enjoy your videos.

Yes! The Trail of Tears as we known as the Indian Removal Act which was passed within the Congress in the U.S. and which was signed by no other than President Andrew Jackson. Jackson and his vice president Martin Van Buren pushed in the Indian Removal Act, in which President Thomas Jefferson who first declared the Removal Act, but wasn't pushed into congress, for the Choctaws to give up their homelands in Mississippi. On September 27, 1830, The Dancing Rabbit Creek Treaty was signed over to the United Stated for all the Choctaws in Mississippi to remove to the new lands of the Indian Territory of what we now called, Oklahoma. Over 28,000 Choctaws with children and elders, moved westward, leaving their homes and few of their belongings back as they trek on their long journey in the long winter months. During arrival, only over 10,000 Choctaws had arrived in the new lands as some perished during the long walk on the Trail of Tears. The name Trail of Tears came from a Choctaw who was reported by a reporter in Little Rock, AR hearing him saying, " As we all came upon a Trail of Tears and Death." But a few Choctaws, turned back into Mississippi, to hid in the woods and swamps. As government found the hidden Choctaws, they started to adapt into the laws of the new state of Mississippi. In 1945, the Choctaws in Mississippi became the federally recognized tribe in the U.S. as they now reside in the reservations. The Choctaws in Oklahoma is now the 3rd largest tribe in the U.S. as we now have over 200,000 tribal members that lives in the Choctaw reservation of Oklahoma and outside of the boundary as well.
