Good Video. Drew spells his last name "Neill" and the guy in the red vest around the campfire is "Scott Douglas" from Fort Dobbs.

[dmccoig]

Thanks Tiny, thats a shame about Drew's name, I got it of the web from a press article on Fort Dobbs. Believe me with a name like mccoig, I get soooo many versions I can't keep up

My mother and I were born in Winston-Salem. I remember seeing this place when I was a kid; I didn't think much about it then, but this brings back memories.

I use to love seeing the multi-pointed, Moravian Stars decorating the front porches at Christmastime.

[dmccoig]

Thanks Highplains,

We love to see those stars everywhere as well.

Just found out my ancestors were Moravians and were part of the settlement at Bethabara, and later Bethania. I live in Georgia, but have a trip planned to NC this summer. I can't wait to visit the park; thank you so much for posting this! Do you know any other worthwhile Moravian sites I should put on my itinerary? I plan on visiting God's Acre as that is most likely where the first immigrant in our family is buried. I'd welcome any suggestions you may have. Thanks!

I am a Moravian and my grandmother works there and i go there every summer it is BEAUTIFUL

[carpetcarevideos]

@Tinyvivian I've never been there, it looks cook

[sprintbass]

i know..i think they should be punished by the tips of moravian stars,,,and then if they stiill survive we could take the morivian cookies and crumble them up and put it int thier eyes...lol we could stuff thier mouths with sugar cake to make them be quiet! after that we could make them eat bbq

[moravianfaith]

this video isn't about old Salem.  This is about Bethabara, which is completely separate.

I went back in October with my class and my mom was a chaperone (sp.) There were so many kids and so many schedules my mother and I didn't really get to visit the place. And all the other stupid kids just scoffed at Old Salem's history and fun. It was a waste of a trip, and I'm very upset that it was so, because I love Old Salem and now I don't get to go again until next year. Old Salem is one of my favorite places to go.

Interesting video, looking forward to viewing more. Made me want to go.

It looks like the earlier settlers "carved out well". Winston-Salem, is my home; a clean and artsie city as far as cities go, I"m really kinda proud of the city and living here.

Thank you for the rich historic background.
