    January 2021 edit - For more on Mrs Jane, please read: www.agweb.com/news/crops/crop-production/ghost-house-forgotten-american-farming-tragedy “This is my Texas.” It was amazing that we were even able to locate this lone grave. It is sad someone at one point felt the need to vandalize and flip the grave. I fear this one may wind up being lost to time in those woods. A developer who did not know could easily build there and no one, except a few, would ever remember her grave being there. Thankfully we were able to find it and fix the stone, and help save it for a little while longer. A big thanks to Dan for bringing me out there, providing phenomenal history as usual and also for the old photos of the Perryman Plantation.

    Robert, it really concerns me that you keep clearing these old gravestones with your bare hands. In my cemetery adventures, I've encountered many snakes. A baby copperhead (not sure if they have those in Georgia, but we have them in Louisiana) can cause serious nerve damage. If you'll pick out a set of gloves on Amazon, I'll buy them for you. I've written to you before ... email is landocoton@aol.com.

    Long forgotten homesteads like this always get to me. I think of all the love, life and death that took place there and to see it now, almost entirely reclaimed by nature, including Ms. Jane's final resting place really fills me with sadness and the realization that in reality, we are here for such a very very short time. I always think about the holidays spent in the house and all the happy times playing with children and all the times laughing and the times crying and all the big moments like births and the heartbreaking moments like death. The holidays and the opening of presents and the breaking of bread and the moments of tenderness holding loved ones close. To see places like this now, its hard to imagine that at one time, someone took great pride in this home and painted and cared for it and planted flowers and grew vegetables for the table. It makes me think of the house I live in and love now and where it will be 100+ years from now. I also believe that people were made from stronger stock back then and could bear heartbreak and sadness far better than we could today. In my 2020 mindset, I can't imagine how Ms. Jane's husband continued on after her suicide, but the reality of that time was that he had no choice but to continue on. There were things to tend to then that we do not have today. You had no choice but to move on, no matter how painful it was. Life demanded it. In the cemetery where my great grandfather is laid to rest is a line of 8 small grave markers of children all under the age of 10, from one family who died in the 1918 pandemic. and book marked on either side of this line of 8 small stones are the parents markers, who passed on many years after their 8 children had died. I cannot comprehend how they continued on after losing so many pieces of their heart. Rest in peace Ms. Jane.

    It's an anecdote. Possibly has some truth to it, but has been watered down with each retelling. I highly doubt that actually happened. I would say the truth would be tied up with domestic violence. I had an old female relative (over 120 years ago) who went berserk and killed four out of her five children with a machete, but that's not how the story was told to me and it took a lot of research to find out what really happened. Most families don't pass down horrible histories of that nature, so they make up new ones..that are convoluted, contrived and becomes less like the truth with each subsequent retelling. If it sounds like romanticized rubbish, that's probably what it is.

    Not an anecdote at all. There are descendants of hers as well as her neighbors nearby today. They all tell the same story with consistency, no embellishments. It was simply that she loved her home and did not want to start over again in another new frontier. We here in the south have no need or reason to embellish anything.

Or perhaps he thought she would stay there and he would go to Texas to escape her but after she killed herself he decided he could stay there and enjoy his home.

    I was sad thinking of the sense of community Jane must have felt around her after 20 years of living in that house, the connection she would have felt to the land and people. She would have been used to the way the seasons change the weather, the daily activities of a peach plantation, etc. I can imagine the pressure, unhappiness and maybe even despair she must have felt to come to the decision to end her life instead of leaving the house that was built for her. I am definitely a homebody, a small town girl, and i miss living on a working farm. i can relate to Jane. I live 30 minutes from where there are stonefruit orchards that send fruit as far as Japan and China and my dad grew up on a peach and nectarine farm (im Australian). Hope the family history and stories have been written down.

    It's so strange to feel something for someone who died over a century before I was born. As I try to put myself in her shoes her husband was asking her not only to move but to give up her entire life, family, and friends for a complete unknown. There was no internet or phones or any way to have constant communication once she left. I can see how this must have been overwhelming to her in the early 1800's. She must have felt so alone in those last hours as her husband was packing up and now the sad part is she really is all alone out in the woods. "Her Texas in the backyard" isn't even a backyard or recognizable. She is alone and forgotten in death as she was in life.

    I find your videos so interesting. My grandmother told me about our Georgia ancestors from way back when, as told to her from her grandmother-early 1800's, maybe late 1700's. The Davenports and how my our great grandmother used to carry a hatchet in her belt and was always on the lookout for Indians. At least 2 other family members were abducted by Indians, but managed to fight their way back. The woods were no joke back then and a long journey to Texas was not just accomplished in a few days. You did it all by yourself, encountering friendly Indians or hostile, friendly settlers or not, land you were not familiar with, impassable land forms, bad weather who knows. You could very well have died making that journey. I don't blame Ms. Perryman at all.

    Wow, that was too cool, finding it, not her shooting herself. That’s so sad. I hope her husband learned to consider the feelings of others after that. Looks like it would have been a beautiful house. You know, he probably wasn’t just taking her from her house, but also grown children and grandchildren....the life they had built together.

    I hope (if possible) the names and information on these grave markers are carefully documented along with their exact locations; and it would be wonderful to have them published on Findagrave. Those people likely were ancestors of living people. My dad would have loved to go along on these explorations, by the way. He was very interested in family history and old homesteads.

How nice it would be too save some of the lumber from that barn and to make a marker by her resting place. If you go back out, take some flag tape and mark the path. Again fantastic history!!!

    Thanks to all of you, Robert, Cody and Dan! Amazing video.... definitely tragic, to say the least, but Jane's life/death is now documented and she will always be remembered, no matter what happens to that land. It's such a shame she took her own life to stay on that plantation. If only her husband had listened to her and agreed to stay. He pushed too hard, though, and he lost his wife because of it... and then he ended up staying anyway so her death was totally in vain. The whole story brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for righting her stone, Robert. That poor woman deserves that much, at least! I'm so glad you guys were able to locate her! You done good, boys!!!

That is the part of researching genealogy that brings the most satisfaction and closure. Not so much as seeing how far back your can trace a lineage, but the stories to be passed down, that give substance to those kinfolk who came before us.

May she and other's like her's rest in peace!! And thankyou to all the beautiful soul's that do these beautiful gesture's ..Thankyou from myself and the ones that have passed on....🌹👼🙏
