I head into the piney woods of East Texas for a family reunion… held in a cemetery. Since the mid-1800s, families have gathered at Antioch Cemetery on the third Sunday in October to argue about upkeep, share a potluck, and remember. My Uncle Bobby walks me through headstones, East Texas sawmill history, dry-county bootlegging, Civil War migrations from Alabama to Texas, faith, forgiveness, and what it feels like to sit beside your own name on a stone. It’s part history tour, part family lore, and a meditation on how traditions survive.🔗 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more conversations that chase the story behind the person.Find more info at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://whyamipod.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.If you want to support the podcast you can do so via ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/whyamipod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#WhyAmI #AntiochCemetery #EastTexas #TexasHistory #FamilyHistory #ThirdSundayInOctober #SawmillHistory #OralHistory #FaithAndFamily #Podcast
