MYSTERIOUS ROCK WALL GRAVE FOUND IN THE WOODS OF GEORGIA! Boynton Cemetery
2024-02-03に共有
Guided by Cecil's discovery, our journey leads us to a secluded cemetery that time has almost forgotten. Amid the tranquility of the forest, we encounter a scene that piques our curiosity and fuels our passion for history: a large, meticulously constructed stone wall within the cemetery's boundaries. This remarkable feature, housing at least two unmarked graves, stands as a silent guardian of the past, its origins shrouded in mystery.
As we delve deeper, the cemetery reveals its only marked grave, dating back to 1856, lying beyond the stone wall's embrace. This distinction raises intriguing questions about the identities of those within the wall and the broader cemetery, suggesting a complex tapestry of social and historical narratives.
Our exploration doesn't stop at the stone wall. The surrounding area, part of the larger cemetery, hints at the presence of many other unmarked graves. These could belong to enslaved individuals or Creek people who lingered in the area, each unmarked stone a muted testament to their existence and stories.
This episode is more than just a physical journey; it's a quest to connect with the stories etched into the landscape by those who came before us. As we piece together the clues left behind, the Boynton Cemetery offers us a unique glimpse into Georgia's past, challenging us to ponder the lives and legacies of its silent inhabitants.

This was an amazing find! And so many questions! I did read a later very brief history of the cemetery that described the wall as being “slave built” Tip Jar For Gas: www.paypal.me/rwrightphotography Follow me on my old farm: www.youtube.com/channel/UC56vh2L-M0czmoTRLhSMaxg eBay Shop: www.ebay.com/usr/oldbyrdfarm Join The Official Sidestep Adventures Fan Group: www.facebook.com/groups/561758371276581/?ref=share… My flashlight link: www.olightstore.com/s/UPTJSG Save 10 percent: SAIH10 (not valid on sales items and X9R) Mail: Sidestep Adventures PO BOX 206 Waverly Hall, Georgia 31831

Snow M. Boynton~ Her Mother was from NC., and her Father was Mass. Her Mothers maiden name is Chapman, now I am invested as that is a family name of mine. There is some history on them that is documented. I love the mystery, and search for who is whom. Super find, thank you all for your sharing.

As a Boynton myself, it's nice to see our family that appears to be plantation owners and the Jackson family that appeared to be once slaves inherited the house amd property. Our Boynton lineage started with two Boynton brother John and William who were commissioned by England in 1638 right behind the Mayflower. Our family supplied goods, livestock and maybe transportation for other pilgrims for 7 years. At one point one of our uncles registered 4,000 Boyntons by the year 1890 and compiled a comprehensive geology book. John Farnham Boynton was his name and micro biology, dentistry, inventor was his game :)

old Rock enclosers were the parents of Snow M Boyton, Moses Boynton and his mother Tabitha Chapman. information from Find a Grave

The ferns on the top of the wall are so pretty. Wonder if they naturally occurred there. Also wonder if the graves inside the wall could have stones deeper down. Maybe the leaves composted into dirt over the years? Really interesting.

And now.....Cecil takes over the channel, as he is the PROFESSIONAL..... he does come prepared...that allows Dan to tell the stories, and Robert to read the epitaphs😅You guys...do not mention Big Chic, as your vlog had me intrigued, and Big Chic chicken had my mouth watering🤤 You guys are the best🐾🦊🐺

My dad was a stone mason and would have been really impressed by the stone work in the wall. Dan, your knowledge is awesome and it sounds like you have a lot of good memories of your dad. Robert, thanks for sharing this. God bless all of you ❤

I ❤ listening to Dan’s stories. I could listening to him talk for hours. Robert, you need a leaf blower, it would make it so much easier to clear areas around the graves.
-
Thank you Cecil, Dan and Robert for a fascinating tour of the Boynton Cemetery. The artistry of that wall is incredible.
-
It blows my mind how many people I am distantly related to in your videos and others. It looks like Snow Boynton was my 4th cousin 7 times removed. Thanks for doing all that you do in discovering these places. I wish there was a way to clean up all of these places. It is a shame that they fall in such poor condition.
-
Interesting place, the craftmanship is remarkable, i am always happy to go on your field trips, right from my chair thank you all.

Robert, as I read the first sentence of your description for this video, I knew you have the heart of a poet. I hope writing is another of your talents that you will pursue, The abilities of you, Dan and Cecil to read what the land has written is truly amazing.
-
I find it so curious that someone took the time & care to build that amazing wall & yet the graves are unmarked. Very interesting find. Great video
-
What an incredible find. Hard to imagine the work that went into creating that out of respect for their loved ones. Thank you for sharing it.
-
3 people moving that headstone makes it easy so it is a good thing everyone helped.
-
Unfathomable the skill and labour used to construct that stone wall. WOW!!!
-
Love your videos and enjoy watching them. May the lord bless and protect you Robert, Dan and Cecil and bringing out the past history

It's so beautiful with the ferns and moss growing on the wall- like it's making it's own garden for the folks resting there.

This grave wall is amazing. It’s too bad that we don’t know who was buried there. Mr Boyntons marker is beautiful - the detail is gorgeous. It’s hard to see the other graves on video, but so interesting to have them pointed out. I love the history that Mr Dan can tell us. Love this video and all of your other ones. Thank you!
