that last story got me. I didn't know of Martha Mansfield. what a tragic ending of a young life. 😿

A few important names who died in the 20s that could be brought up in a future video: Robert La Follette Sr. William Jennings Bryan Nellie Bly Eugene V. Debs Robert Todd Lincoln Franz Kafka John Burroughs

The last story is Very sad and tragic 😢

You ought to cover the Leopold & Leob murder case in Chicago in 1924. That must have been incredibly high profile given the perpetrators, victim and their positions in Chicago society at the time!

Great research as usual ❤, especially President Harding. He had a lot of enemies, even his wife Florence who was furious about his indiscretions and outside child. There were always rumors that she poisoned him 🤫.

@@tchrisou812 Famous Deaths Of The 1920s (Part 2) some woman i once knew also had a penchant for women with bob cuts. but i feel i am out of my era...i would have been more happier during the 20's and 30's - obviously born on the right side of the tracks - gettin' high, drinking... partying... gettin' laid (for want of better words)... none of this messed up and bemused world view we have now.... but, yeah, those photos of hollywood starlets are pretty cool circa 1920's/30's...

For those interested in the William Desmond Taylor case, the book, “ A Cast of Killers,” by Sydney D. Kirkpatrick is excellent. Goes into all kinds of scandals and tales from those days. A great book.

Poor Martha Mansfield! 😢

these famous people learned to late their money couldn't save them even today, a person has to be on guard all the time here's a story of jealousy and revenge gone wrong! there was a young man always looking to crash parties, on night a man was having a party this man had intended to kill who he thought was a rival for his woman, so the man set a trap he put a beer bottle where his target would find it! only it wasn't all beer in that bottle, it was half liquid Drano, a substance that no one can save a person! the crasher who was 20 some saw the bottle and thinking he was being slick downed it the Drano did what it was designed to do, it started dissolving everything it came in contact with, his airway his lungs his enteral organs they tried to keep him alive by feeding him through his large intestine to keep him alive until they could figure something out. but he died a week later, i try to tell people never drink out of a bottle or glass can only and then if they opened it themselves, never go on a first date alone either have someone with you or someone following, never walk into a room with a man or men a woman boxes herself in and is at their mercy, the same with answering the door a friend of mine lost his pregnant wife to a monster, who cut her throat and used a meat clever to take what he killed her for he had a leg fetish so he took her legs!

LOVE these old Hollywood stories. I've heard the Desmond story many times but you added in many new elements. I would LOVE a deep dive into it!!!

You did a great job on this video!

The fact that Harding had a long-term mistress and a child with her, is a pretty good reason to blame the wife.

So sad about mansfield. Good video.

The Minter / Normand case has been the subject of a number of books. One of those things we will know the answer to.

I just found your channel, and I'm so happy I did! I love learning about the different eras of history, especially the 20s. Keep up the great work. :D

How sad I never knew about that fire.

I really like your channel!

Someone you could cover in a future video is Isadora Duncan, her death was quite shocking to say the least.

fascinating! Thank you

I always enjoy these series and look forward to part 3!. Kudos to you!

thank you so much!! just love the content

you've done a "deep dive" into the Fatty Arbuckle story. Desmond Taylor's story is definitely on a par with that case, so go for it, I say.

Thanks ❤

Justin Root channel has great series on Taylor's murder mystery. He takes you to sites involved, some still exist. He has a solid and accurate handle on the events as well.

I read the book on the investigation of that Director's murder conducted by another director King Vidor. He did it both as a hobby and as a research project for a possible screen play. His conclusion (apart from the fact the LA police of that time were equal parts incompetent and compromised) was that the stage mother from hell of Mary Miles Minter was the killer. It was not either actress mentioned.

I caught myself on fire once. I stopped, dropped, and rolled saving my own life. It was still pretty bad and I had serious burns. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I wonder if that was even a thing back then?

It was Charlotte Shelby. There is a lot of information on this available on the internet. It was the mother of MMM.

How come this video isn't listed on your channel?

The 1920s, as I fantasized about it, was a decade of innovation, jazz, playboy charm, mystery, scandal, romance, and endless parties 🤪🍾🕵️‍♂️🎷

Read the books I've read, and it will enlighten you. Start with "A Cast of Killers" by Kirkpatrick, and then "Tinseltown: Murder, Morphine and Madness at the Dawn of Hollywood." Until you read both of these books, you won't know anything about what happened to William Desmond Taylor, AKA "William Cunningham Deane-Tanner" which qas his real name.

I once saw a documentary on this case; the conclusion was Miss Minter's mother, disguised as a man, did it.

Desmond Taylor was killed by M.M.M. ‘S MOTHER! I read the book written by King Vidor, a movie director of that time. Mary was a very young actress, he was an old man.Momma didn’t like that at all. Love Grandma Debbie

Why was Harding's affair with Nan Britton not mentioned?

Wow, interesting stories. I love the style of this time; thank you for the great photos.

Interesting 🤔

"Mary Miles minter's mother" try saying that five times fast

Taylor did NOT have memory loss. He was GAY, and he left his wife and child because he didn't want to be with her anymore. That is really how simple it was... I've read three BIOS on this murder and it was documented that he was gay. Taylor was also a VERY sharp and intelligent man. There was NO previous talk of him having "memory lapses" at all. You might want to do better research, because your analysis on the Desmond Taylor murders was not very good. You also realize that William Desmond Taylor was not his real name either. Tanner. His real last name was TANNER. Honestly, do better research.
