I miss Galveston. Spent every summer there when i was growing up. Then started taking my own kids when they were little

I love and miss so much about Galveston, my hometown. Thank you all so much for the great video and showing love to such a precious place. I do miss the oaks that lined Broadway and made it so beautiful and Victorian.

This was Wonderful ! Thank you for your love and interest in Galveston.

This was fantastic! I've met Kathleen a few times and she is genuinely the sweetest person you'll ever meet. Her knowledge about Galveston is so impressive and adds so much to not only the history of the island, but also to the history of Texas.

@@galvestonunscripted Thank you! I will! Slowly going through your channel. Lots of great info.

So informative! I have spent a lot of time in “Resting Communities” and I learned so much in this video. I graduated from UTMB Galveston and have passed this cemetery so many times. I have always wanted to stop and walk through it.

An excellent video covering fascinating cemeteries! 👍 We are taught in Freemasony that a broken column symbolizes a life cut short. In our symbolism there is usually a winged angel weeping over the top of the column... 😢

I would have loved to see the graves of the Maceo, Kempner, Sealy and Moody families! The movers and shakers of old Galveston! Time to make another video! This was great!

I have always loved the cemetery district. Kathleen is a great guide!

Totally agree!

I spend a lot of time photographing the monuments and it’s very peaceful.

It does not seem morbid in the least to take a picnic lunch and visit with loved ones in mausoleums. I visit the remains of my relatives often in the cemetery and I've had lunch there several times

A very sad marker is the mass grave of the ten nuns who were killed in the 1900 storm at the beach side orphanage. It's located in Calvary Cemetery just off 61st Street. NJ Clayton and family are buried nearby to that one.

Were the children who the nuns tied to them buried with them?

Great video J.R.! I remember Kathleen showing our tour group that there were fences around many family plots and most are now buried due to the grade raisings. However, there are some tops of the posts still showing above the ground.

One of my favorite places of serenity on the island; Aside from the Hays Park at 23rd and Broadway, as well as the fountain memorial on the side of trinity episcopal.

Yes. Beautiful place. Here is a tour of Trinity from last year! kzread.info/dash/bejne/hGFrypdtXbGbZdo.htmlsi=beglse76OFM9atE2

You have done a super job with all your videos.... entertaining and informative ....and I am a native growing up on the coast. We bypass so much in route to the beach or restaurants. It's time to appreciate it all. Sir, you are on your way to awards for your work. Thanks for all you have done. Love the Confederate shout out....time to tell the real truth.

Absolutely outstanding video sir. Thank you. These kinds of informative videos are hard to find.

I don’t speak Portuguese, but that cemetery is great

Hey that’s not nice I resent that, I’m a goth who loves the history of cemeteries and could wonder around there all day and enjoy looking at the graves. I watch a wonderful KZread channel called #FacesOfTheForgotten who does very neat stories about cemeteries.

@@acheartist Lol. Yeah there have been times when I’ve visited that cemetery and have had to sit down to take a break because Texas is hot. 🥵 Of course not on a headstone. Cemeteries are beautiful places I could hang out in all day. I’m an odd one.

Why the music? I found it very distracting and took away from the interview. Was it necessary? Very annoying.

You’re hired. Please watch the rest of the videos on the channel and comment how each could be improved. You’re def the one for the job.

Once again, annoying background 'music', had to stop watching. Otherwise, it's a very interesting video.
