Cemetery Report: June 20, 2011"A Fake Name For Sure" Part 6 List user
7/31/2011, 9:16:17 AM Out of the motel room at 7:11AM and so far its clear and sunny. Out of the restaurant at 7:57AM after having ham and eggs, toast and coffee. But, I got into a discussion with a former Niagara Mohawk crew(Now National Greed). I had told them I was retired from there so we talked a while. They told me how bad things were there now since the National Greed Company took over. They all, now have GPS units in their trucks so the Company can keep track of them. Well I left them still eating and on my way................they had said they were heading to Greenwich like I was.................. 8:05AM brings me to Greenwich, N.Y. and The City Cemetery on Rt. 29 @ 61F/16C. R.S. Beel 1842-1927. Horton Tefft 1815-1899. Whiteside Hill 1822-1899. Ardith Lee 1918-1899. Evra Safford 1840-1909. William Sprague died Oct 5, 1880 age 82 years. Gibson Sprague died Nov 6, 1881 age 26 years 4 months and 5 days. Betsey Hiscock died May 13, 1823 age 61 years. Just noticed across the street a National Greed bucket truck pulling into the convenience store, hey, its the same guys as I had talked with back at Schuylerville restaurant. They parked and went in. A while later they came out eating ice creams and drinking something. Ahhhhh did they say they had GPS detectors in their trucks?????????????? Royal P.

White 1894-1956. Most all of you are aware I read a lot. One subject I like is local histories especially reading areas where I have been to the local cemeteries. Once I got home from this week of cemeteries I've already read some of the books picked up on that trip. Stillwater Cemetery which I got done on the trip is claimed to have oversized glowing green orbs floating all over the cemetery.Its also claimed they have many photos of them. They also claim to have recorded many voices from this cemetery. Seems anytime I see green orbs is after having dairy products....................I'm lactose intolerant.................. Saloma L. Kenyon Born July 27, 1840 and died Jan 1, 1907. Rensselaer O. Wallace died Dec 2, 1872 age 21 years 7 months and 9 days. Richard S. Selfridge Born July 4, 1835 and died Oct 26, 1925.

Weir 1849-1872. I'm also not fond of errors in history which everyone is afraid to correct. For instance, in the U.S.A. we celebrate the 4th of July. Why?? Nothing of any importance happened that day in US history other than the delegates of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia had to cut their work short because of a horde of giant horseflies that invaded Independence Hall. The actual first step in moving towards Independence from Great Britain took place on July 7th......................but, dont tell anyone they are celebrating the wrong day. Marcel J.

Thurstin Wilcox died June 26, 1864 age 51 years and 12 months. Gratie wife of Hart Phillips died Nov 11, 1831 age 33 years. There are certain people in history I have no use for, such as adolph hitler, he doesn't even deserve capital letters. But, I did read one funny thing about him, for his entire life he had excessive flatulence. He should have blown himself up...................... Now the one thing that I hated to learn about him, recently, this year. The Russians had in their vaults hitlers skull since WW 2. < That's has been known world wide since the war.Russias trophy of war, and rightfully so. And for those of you who don't read history or watch the History Channel, the Science Channel and the National Geographic Channel, it was heart breaking to find out this year, due to DNA testing, which was not available during WW 2, that the skull the Russians have held all these years, turned out not to be hitlers skull, it actually turned out to be a female skull. So now, they really dont know what really happened to him. Sometimes history is very disappointing..................... Dannel W. Abeet 1810-1888.(< Doesn't a Cop walk abeet?) Lansing M.

Speaking of Napoleon....LOL..........yes it is true that after he died his private part was cut off of him and it exists today, kind of mummified. Great piece of history??????????????? And guess who cut it off, Father Abbot Ange Paul Vignali. I guess a lock of hair isn't as good as the Royal Penis.........................LOL The item exists now in a tiny little casket with a certificate of authentification certificate(< could it be, that many of them floating around as imposters...?????????? LOL) It was put up for auction in 1977 and sold for $3,000.00 U.S. ..................Sounds like a steal to me............................now there's something I'd like to have in my curio cabinet..................LOL.
