Description

^w^ A very historical and special site in the area close to where I live. Apparently, the churh building was used during the American Civil War as a recovery hospital for those who were wounded but recovered. Nowadays, local put Confederacy flags around the few groups of Confederate graves at the far end. The place is... very significant in odd happenings to say the least. My brother in just an hour long exploration of the graves and layout found that the camera of his phone randomly took some photos on its own. It has, as far as I've known, only done so rarely and when it's glitching out. Here, it seemed like it happened every 10 minutes as we studied the grave markers, concentrating around those at the sides and front (away from the Confederate graves... which, hm, this area of the state WAS originally a very non-Confederate region if you look into it.) I also rediscovered an ancient, pre-Civil War grave for a 4-month-old which gave me great closure to find it was still there. It was sad to see so many toppled over markers back in early middle school when I first came there to make grave rubbings for the class project... and finding that same marker upright so many years later made me calm and pleased. I'll be back to this cemetery in a respectful function with friends sometime, and I would hope to speak to this little one above all!


I'll find a way to post any possible find from a more organized paranormal investigation of this area in future!
