Thomas Bayes was a mathematician in the 1700s (died in 1761). He contributed greatly to the area of statistics. His grave was located in London. It was ‘discovered’ in very bad repair by a statistician who walked past the cemetery on his way to work. He loved Bayes’s work, so he decided to clean the gravestone himself with an old toothbrush. Everyday he did a little bit more and the effort was soon joined by his colleagues. I don’t know how long it took them but it was a labor of love. This is a story I was told by the statistician worked for . It maybe a load of crap but I like it and your video made me remember it.

Lovely to see. Some of those graves are so old that anyone who knew the deceased are long gone themselves, but I think it's important that we still show respect for those who have passed. And to all the people who clearly didn't watch the whole video - you can't use a pressure washer as it can damage the stone. The lady clearly states that you can only use a pressure level such as one that you may use to water / fertilise plants.

I remember cleaning a gravestone. It's very calming therapeutic. Especially when you're cleaning the grave of a loved ones. I cleaned my grandpa's grave. He passed away when I was little so i don't remember him much. But I talked to him about how his son still missed him and how his son still a stubborn man. It's really a good time to reflect upon yourself and your life. A way to connect to your loved ones and question the meaning of life. I hope he don't worry much about us anymore. I really want to know if he proud of us. But I'm really afraid of ghost, so don't visit us, grandpa.

I barely knew her and have no clue where she's buried and never visited her grave (and also don't really care).

What made it interesting was that the surnames were also the names of towns in the state. Were these the families of the founders of the “New Amsterdam” colony?

My son who is about to be 8 September 13th is extremely interested in cleaning the forgotten soldiers graves that we find way to much of. It really gets to us when we see a soldier that has served us and has passed to be left alone and some very destroyed and this is next to the Department of Education that my son drops his homework off to . That really makes him feel sad. The school that teaches him to respect and love our soldiers leaves them in the next yard with full grown trees over them and through them. It is a very painful sight. My family fathers side were all Army navy and marine and to see them even have grass cuttings drives me wild. The disrespect is uncalled for . They should never be forgotten like this

Thank you, I'm gaining confidence that I can clean my great-grandmother's stone!

I'm fortunate to have 3 to 4 generations of several of my family lines buried locally so I will choose one to clean and then learn as much as I can about that person beforehand so I feel a genuine connection while I'm cleaning their marker.

Hi there, thanks so much for the tutorial. I was wondering if you ever repaired a stone that had a piece broken off from the top?

Good video and there are various ways within her guidelines to go about this. Generally water should be used first so it can soften up the growth on the stone and then spray D/2 or wet and forget and wait. The methods here though and results are probably the same

I do to every few years Depending on how many stones I clean but as an example I use 2 gallon of water and two half cups of bleach and 2- 5 gallons rinse buckets , very lightly scrub the stone with the bleach water just enough to get stone wet ,wait a 5 minutes then go over again with a scrub brush , stuff melts right off , then rinse ! About 20 minutes finished , I thought I'd share this with yous, thank you for this video good job, I really respect the work that you're doing ❤️

"Bleach is at the top of the list as the number one harmful cleaner most used. Most who use it do because it’s cheap, kills germs and fungi, and it will bleach white a marble stone. Sounds good in theory, but very harmful. The makeup of bleach - The chemical compound formula for sodium hypochlorite is NaOCl. - reaction - Chlorine and sodium hydroxide will produce sodium hypochlorite Cl2 + 2NaOH = NaOCl + NaCl + H2O. Bleach is damaging do its sodium content. The damaging salt deposits left behind in the stone will break down the stones molecular structure from within."

I just discovered my great great great great grandparents grave ( dated 1854 ) only a ten minutes from where I've worked for the past 20 years! Unfortunately it's old and dirty, and therefore hard to read some of the inscriptions. Would be great to have it cleaned up like the ones in this video.

Alicia, I have either rust from well water or fertilizer staining on a granite headstone. Although D2 has helped some, the stain is still there. The poultice route was less effective than D2 and led to cleaning the powder out of the engraving. Any advice. Thanks.

Existe uma resina, tipo verniz, própria para uso em pedras ou cimentado, que evita o aparecimento de limo (lodo). Congratulações do Brasil.

What product were you putting on it during the scrubbing before the rinse down?

Beautiful! Didn't know this is a legit job, ppl doing

Can you please perform the scraping slowly so we can see how sometimes there are many steps to getting lichens and moss off. It's very relaxing and satisfying to watch all the steps. Some cleanings are sped up and we miss a lot. Thank you for what you do.

God Bless You🙏

I cleaned stone last week in WV. One I did for a relative was black. I cleaned it twice. The difference is like night and day. Another one I did was a beautiful white marble stone covered with green growth. After two cleanings, I gave it a final spray and left. Next year when I return, it will be snowy white like the day it was set. Also, the woman died in 1886. That means, it will need another good cleaning in the year 2157. I hope someone will take it upon themselves to clean it again.

I want to start doing this😊

Im here because I recently found the grave of a childhood friend who passed when he was just 15. His stone was hard to read. I plan to clean it. I don't think he has been attended in years. Im about to change that.
