Hello! I noticed you used a lot of our Williamsburg footage from various documentaries we produce for our Quest Capsule KZread channel in this video, e.g. our Duke of Gloucester Street Walking Tour, clips from our George Wythe House documentary, our aerial shots of the Governors Palace, and other Colonial Williamsburg documentaries we produce on our channel about Colonial Williamsburg. Get it touch next time, we could have arranged some more special raw footage for you to include in the piece as well! 🎩Nice work!
Thanks. I appreciate suggestions not typically mentioned.

Jamestown is not Williamsburg. Yorktown is not Williamsburg. And please learn how to pronounce many of these before stealing other people's footage and putting a video out on it.
Hey I liked that part where teh little girl was kissing Elmo right on the nose-sweet!
I like how clean and maintain it is perfect our area is A German community. But wood building and Bricks but if needed paint not well maintained.

Curious-did you ask to use footage from my company ghost tours? Not only did you use it, you mentioned another tour while showing MY footage!! Who told you it was okay to use footage that doesn’t belong to you?
I’ve been a couple of times and really enjoy the area…sadly they removed most of the cannon from Yorktown…very disappointing

Gloucester is glah-ster. Wythe is with. Powhatan is powa-tan. Kecoughtan is kicka-tan. It helps if you come here that you can pronounce these names properly.
“Gloster” not “glochester” 😂

Gloucester is pronounced “Glo ster” with the O sounding same as in HOP. Not as in OGLE. Many thanks.
I wish you had mentioned how easy it is to get around for those of us in wheelchairs or who use walkers. After al us baby boomers are the largest demographic group. thx
