Molly Crenshaw's tombstone

[chefgebhardt]

The Story of Mollie crenshaw is very true ,I lived at the farm on Towers Rd it was were Roger Tower's and his faimly Lived .This also know as Towers Rd , The faimlies had lived on the bottom of Missouri River and also on tower's Rd . On towers rd there 2 farms house left theses are the Towers Faimly Farms. The farm it self that I lived at is 200 ft from the grave site and the story is true . When we lived at the farm you would see the orbs in the woods and around the farm . The farm house was haunted and the slave celler was next to the house when went down into the celler you could see the shackles from were the slaves were kept . Many kids from Francis Howell and other are's would go to the cemetery and mess with the grave and they would party trying to bring Mollie back and every time they did the orbs in the woods appear and then at the farmhouse you see fog down by the farm . Those that messed with the grave are curse and it's true very true .They did not know that when they enter the cemetery they had disturb not just Moillie's grave but the rest of the graves. The grave yard was curse by Roger Tower's and I know this for a fact because of what was told to me by the elder's of Harverster .The Barklage faimly rented the farm house up the street from the farm I lived at and at that time Mrs.Barklage was in her 50's and she told the truth about the Mollie Crenshaw and evn told me the History of the Tower's faimly and the Crenshaw faimly the real truth . Those that enter the Cemetery to disturb the graves you disturb the spirts . The  only thing that can saved there souls is pray to the 7 Afriacan gods and then you must used holy water and bless the grave and tell them you are sorry for disturbing their spirts . If you do not you will see orbs and you will also feel the spirts . I go their every year to pay respect and make sure the grave is not been disturb . The faimly that lives in the ranch house next watch over it and protect from harm . I know this for a fact for I also have seen Mollie spirt and the orbs that surrounded her spirt she was not doing harm but to thank me for being respectful to her and the faimly , but I also a witch and I pratice Wicca and I can tell you if did wrong to her you must make it right if not your will face the curse . So when you feel the spirt and you see the orbs at one  time or another you must do right are you face sickness and you and your off spring also . Mollie story is very true .And the real tombstone is spelled MOLLIE CRENSHAW AND THERE ARE NO OTHER MARKER'S LIKE IT ,IF SOMEONE PRODUCE'S A MARKER WITH MOLLY CRENSHAW THAT IS NOT HER TOMBSTONE  I KNOW BECAUSE I KNOW IT SINCE I WAS 12 AND I'M 50 NOW . THE OTHER GRAVES OF THE SLAVES ARE BURIED NEXT TO THE FENCE FACEING WESTERMANS HOUSE AND THEY ARE MARK BY ROCKS FROM THE MY STEP MOTHER'S FARM .ROGER TOWER'S AND JOHN TOWER'S OLD HOUSE WAS TORE DOWN BY THE OSTMAN FAIMLY .THE OTHER FARM HOUSE STILL STANDS ON TOWRE'S RD AND IT'S GRAY AND THE OTHER IS ON JACOB STATION RD AND IT'S STILL STANDING .THE ONE ON MISSOURI BOTTOM WAS DESTROY BY FIRE IN THE 60'S .YES THE STORY OF MOLLIE IS VERY TRUE .

Who are you yelling at? We all hear perfectly fine, thank you. At least, we used to! (Loonies screaming in all-caps on the interwebs. The idea!)

Interesting story.

Chef, did you even read this thread?  Crenshaw's family invited me to their house and let me take a photo of the real tombstone.  The name is spelled "Molley."  You know...like in the photograph that I took...the photograph of the tombstone...the photograph that is posted right here in this thread...

Ray, I think chefgebhardt's train left the station and you're addressing an empty platform, if you know what I mean and I think that you do.

I grew up on Towers Rd 1/4 mile for Molly Crenshaw's grave. The story above is not the local story, the photo of the grave yard is not of the grave yard. The grave is marked with a simple cobble stone with M.C. carved into the rock.

[Count_Zirock]

Oh, Ray! Can we discuss the types of new recruits your thread is attracting? :-/

[The Drunken Severed Head]

Hmmm. Maybe "types" is too plural a word, Count.

Here's another possibility to consider, Raymond. The folklore concerns a black woman who lived in the 19th century. A headstone of a very similar name is discovered of a white woman who lived partly in the 20th century. Isn't it possible that the name of the latter woman attracts interest because of the folk tale, and the name similarity is just a coincidence. I think Max Cheney is not common name, but I've found many through Facebook. In fact, Facebook has shown all kinds of not-exactly-common names are shared by many people.

I imagine one could find headstones with even more famous names on them that do belong to the famous people with that same name. Couldn't that easily be the case here? If some teenager found a "John W. Gacey" he might assume he'd found the grave of the famous killer. But in the words of the Gershwin song, "It ain't necessarily so."

Just wondering out loud. Not trying to be a contrarian. I certainly don't know one or another.

Post script: I just had a fascinating phone conversation with Raymond about this!

When I lived in NJ, I visited a Jewish cemetery that had a tombstone for a "FREDRICK KRUEGER." That doesn't mean there was a burned child murderer with a Fedora and finger-knives in the grave.

I know where "BATMAN" is buried...and it's within 20 feet of a guy named "WEST". No foolin'.

[Sean]

I used to work with a guy named Eddie Reuger.  He wore a red and greenish/ brown horizontally striped sweater and fedora to work. (TRUE) Seeing as how this thread is progressing, I feel that this useless information was somehow pertinent.

I MEANT TO TYPE THE ABOVE IN ALL CAPS, BTW!!
