Welcome To History From A Different Perspective

We've been traveling around town visiting different cemeteries.  Why you ask?  Well a cemetery gives you historical content.  The dead can tell a tale.  The area around where we live was settled in the mid 1800's but prior to that it was inhabited by various Native American tribes.   For some reason some White dudes decided to move in and settle down in what was basically the middle of nowhere.  They brought their wives and kids via horse drawn wagon and traveled thousands of miles.  Which really when you think about it was crazy.  We've been taught to believe that these were rugged frontiers people coming out West and we're supposed to admire these people.  But there's another side to it as well.  A darker side.  And that's the story we're learning about.  About the hardship and short lived lives of women, children, and babies.  As well as the pretentiousness, hypocrisy, and arrogance of some of the original inhabitants.  We explore a different world.  Told from the other side.  From beyond the grave.
