6-Month Old Baby's 135 Year Old Gravestone Gets Cleaned (S1:E2)

The sad news continues for this family from the 1800's. Macclenny, FL, USA has had residents as far back as the 1820's, and many headstones from the late 1800's are present in Woodlawn Cemetery. I called the director of the cemetery and asked permission to clean some headstones. I was granted permission and immediately gravitated towards this section which had the Rowes buried here. It was a pretty tragic family story that we started exploring last week and still have another video to come on them next week.

I saw the thumbnail and was so scared that you were gonna pressure wash it but I'm happy to say you did an amazing job soft washing it. Looks great!

So sad to loose a love one at such a young age. I'm sure their relatives appreciate the kind jester. Cleaned up nicely 👌

Not sure what magic juice is but The American Cemetery Administration: "The NCA entered into an agreement with the National Center for Preservation Technology and Training, NPS, to evaluate marble cleaners in an effort to minimize damage to historic headstones. The 3-phase study began in 2004 and was completed in 2011. The best - practice recommendations resulted in NCA's determination to use the preferred cleaner, D/2 Biological Solution." It's the only one the Feds have tested and approved. Subsequently, they approved Wet iit and Forget it. After long term testing as well.

In our country graves will be removed after 20y... no more old graves in the future. No infinite resting

Refreshing to see.. morons in my area just kick gravestones over from time to time, it's disgusting.

[mwinchester]

One of those water pumps would work great on those.

[FishFind]

Sucks that this family couldn’t catch a break

[justjulee]

So sad, but you are doing a great thing! God bless you!

[luannvondracek]

Lovely service you're providing Brad.

[Hourani]

Wow its weird to see your own name on a headstone.. Love the work you do Brad.

[Castleknight]

Are you using the Amazon transfer can with water, to rinse the headstones?

[sirpanda]

wonder if youll clean in the entire graveyard

[davidhakadoober._-]

Little weird seeing my name and last initial on a tombstone that old.

[Lawn_Care]

Nice going! A lot of people will like this video! (Except of course for the usual thumbs down brigade.)

[peterbills]

Good lord, that's a lot of work for one headstone. Kudos to your for the effort. Makes me wonder if there is something you could mix up in a 4 gallon backpack sprayer and hit 30 - 40 headstones with repeatedly over the course of several weekends. Elbow grease is often the best method though.
