In this video, I'm going to pull together research I've done in the past to show you the evidence I have found
0:21
for what I believe has taken place here and who was responsible for the world we live in today.
0:28
My name is Michelle Gibson.
0:33
The corrupted world we live in today was nothing like the incredibly advanced Moorish Atlantean civilization that
0:40
existed on Earth from ancient times to modern times when humanity was functioning collectively at a much
0:45
higher level of consciousness before it was destroyed. And not that long ago.
0:51
As I have said before, my working hypothesis is that the circuit board of the Earth's original energy grid system
0:56
was deliberately destroyed relatively recently by one or more forms of directed frequency or energy of some
1:02
kind into different places on the Earth's grid, causing the surface of the Earth to undulate and buckle. What I'm
1:08
seeing from tracking lay lines all over the earth, looking from place to place at cities in alignment over long
1:13
distances, are the consistent presence of swamps, marshes, bogs, dunes, deserts, and places where it appears
1:20
land masses sheared off and submerged under the bodies of water we see today.
1:25
I believe the malevolent parasitic beings behind the cataclysm were shovel ready to dig enough of the original
1:30
infrastructure out of the ruined earth so they could be used and civilization restarted as the new world order which I
1:37
think started in earnest in the mid to late 1700s and early 1800s. There's
1:42
extensive underground infrastructure where those living on Earth at that time could have survived until the surface of
1:47
the earth was habitable. Then they only used the pre-existing infrastructure until they found replacement fuel
1:53
sources that could be monetized and controlled by them for what had originally been a free energy power grid
1:58
and transportation system worldwide. And when what remained of the original infrastructure was no longer useful to
2:05
them or inconvenient to their agenda, they had it destroyed, discontinued, or abandoned, typically in a very short
2:12
time after it was said to have been constructed. While this new parasitic, self-styled
2:19
elite class lived in the lap of luxury and helped themselves to the best of everything, they had little care for
2:25
anyone or anything else. The same story repeats all over the
2:31
country with the rubber barons coming in and setting up shop and taking control of everything. Starting first in
2:37
Pennsylvania and then expanding their activities outward from there through Appalachia, the present-day Great Lakes
2:42
region, and all the way across the continent. We learned in history class that this westward expansion was
2:48
referred to as manifest destiny, a 19th century belief that the United States was destined by God to expand its
2:55
dominion across the entire continent. But what if what we learn in school about our history is a complete and
3:01
total fabrication and something very different was going on here from what we've been taught to believe. Not for
3:07
the benefit of all, but only for the benefit of a very few. As I just mentioned, the story of what happened
3:13
here to create the New World Order starts first in Pennsylvania. So, that's where I'll begin. When I was doing
3:19
research in 2024 for On the Trail of Giants in Appalachia and beyond, I came
3:24
across the Lehigh Gorge, its abandoned railroad tracks that are now a recreational rail trail, and its scenic
3:30
railway. And yet another place I can add to my list of places I know of off the top of my head, featuring the
3:36
collocation of S-shaped riverbends, railroads, canals, gorges, and waterfalls that I have come to believe
3:42
were part of the Earth's original worldwide energy grid system. The Lehi Gorge is described as a steep walled
3:48
gorge carved by a river, thick vegetation, rock outcroppings, and waterfalls. The Lehi Gorge Trail follows
3:56
more than 20 m or 32 km of the Delaware and Lehi Trail, part of the larger
4:01
Delaware and Lehi National Heritage Corridor, which is 165 m or 266 km long.
4:08
The Lehi Gorge Trail is on an abandoned railroad grade beside the river. This is
4:13
what we are told about the Delaware and Lehi National Heritage Quartrer by the National Park Service. The Delaware and
4:19
Lehigh National Corridor preserves the historic pathway that carried coal and iron from Wilsberry to Philadelphia as a
4:27
vital connection to nature, recreation, and our nation's industrial heritage, as well as having more than $250 million
4:34
per year economic impact for the region. The Delaware and Lehi National Heritage
4:39
Corridor was also known as the anthraite region where the story of where America was built began. What we are told about
4:47
the anthraite region is this. It was home at one time to major anthraite coal
4:52
supplies and the minetom market process with a legacy of intense mining industrial development and rich mixture
4:58
of ethnic cultures. Anthraite coal was first mined in Wilsbury in 1775
5:05
and we are told that it fueled urban development in the region resulting in a string of towns, industries, mines,
5:11
roads and rail lines to the south. It is interesting to note here that the Fryberg University of Mining and
5:18
Technology, the oldest school of mining and metallurgy in the world, was established just 10 years prior to the
5:24
beginning of anthraite coal mining in Wilsbury, having been established in 1765 by Francis Xavier of Saxony of the
5:33
House of Weton. Its main purpose was the education of highly skilled miners and scientists in fields connected to mining
5:40
and metallurgy primarily through Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. First cousins and members
5:46
of the house of Saxa Hobberg and Gotha of the Ernestine branch of the house of Weton, the original royal houses of
5:53
Europe were completely replaced by this obscure German ducal lineage. Alexander
5:58
von Humboldt was a graduate of the Fryberg University of Mining and Technology. He was a Prussian naturalist
6:04
who in our narrative was a pioneer of the fields of biogeography and geomagnetism and an explorer of the
6:10
Americas between 1799 and 1804. Starting with an exploration of Mount Taty on
6:16
Tenneref in the Canary Islands. Humbult University in Berlin was named after Alexander von Humbult and his brother
6:23
Wilhelm. It was first opened in 1810 and was regarded as one of the world's preeminent universities in the study of
6:29
natural sciences in the 1800s and 1900s. Famous faculty and alumni included
6:35
famous names in our current historical narrative like the theoretical physicist Albert Einstein. Carl Marx and Friedrich
6:43
Engles co-c collaborators on the communist manifesto van Bismar first
6:48
chancellor of the German Empire Gayorg Hegel whose philosophy gave us the Hegelian dialectic of problem reaction
6:54
solution and the brothers grim best known for their fairy tales which has such storylines as eating people as in
7:01
Little Red Riding Hood and Hansel and Gretle. And during the same time period as Alexander von Humboldt's explorations
7:08
were taking place between 1799 and 1804, the following historical events occurred
7:13
as well. We are told the Louisiana Purchase was the acquisition of the territory of Louisiana by the United
7:19
States from France with the signing of the Louisiana Purchase Treaty on April 30th of 1803, which was officially
7:25
announced on July 4th of 1803. It was said to have doubled the size of the United States and paved the way for the
7:32
nation's westward expansion. One of the negotiators with France for the terms of the Louisiana purchase in 1803 on behalf
7:39
of President Jefferson was a minor French nobleman Pierre Samuel Dupont Dunors who was living in the United
7:46
States at the time. His son, Eluter Irenne Dupant, a chemist and
7:51
industrialist, founded the EI Dupont Dorsen company to manufacture gunpowder
7:56
and explosives in 1802 with the Dupants becoming one of America's richest
8:01
families with generations of influential businessmen, politicians, and philanthropists.
8:08
The following year in 1803, the Aim Shovel Shop was established in eastern Massachusetts. The AIM Shovel Shop
8:15
became nationally known for providing the shovels for the Union Pacific Railroad, which opened the West. It was
8:20
said to have been the world's largest supplier of shovels in the 19th century. The Ames brothers, Oaks and Oliver Jr.,
8:27
co-owners of the shovel shop that was established by their father, Oliver, were major players in the completion of
8:33
the Union Pacific Railroad. Also in 1803, the Louiswis and Clark expedition,
8:38
also known as the Quora Discovery, started on August 31st of 1803 and lasted until September 25th of 1806 with
8:46
a mission to explore and map the newly acquired western portion of the country after the Louisiana Purchase. When I
8:52
tracked the history of the entire Louiswis and Clark expedition in Louiswis and Clark and the core of
8:58
discovery, true history or real mystery, not only did I find the Rockefellers and
9:04
the standard oil refinery in Wood River at the location of Camp Dubois on the Illinois side of the Mississippi River
9:10
near Cahokia Mounds, which was the official starting point of the Louiswis and Clark expedition, and John Jacob
9:16
Astra's presence with the American Fur Company's fur trading fort at Fort Pierre, a stopping point of the Louiswis
9:22
and Clark expedition in Sou Country in present day South Dakota. I found the presence of other big names in the
9:29
beginnings of the corportocracy in which we've been living under like the General Mills multinational manufacturer and
9:36
marketer of ultrarocessed foods sold through retail stores. Like I said earlier in this video, it is my belief
9:42
that as soon as they were able to after this cataclysmic event took place, these bloodline families and their related
9:48
minions came into the ruined lands of the earth to explore, claim, harvest the resources of and provide us with a new
9:54
history and their new systems for power and control of the earth and its people after the worldwide energy grid of the
10:00
old world was destroyed in a deliberately caused cataclysmic event. They would have had an immediate need
10:06
for explosives and shovels in a post-c cataclysmic world of recent occurrence to begin their recovery work in order to
10:12
bring their new civilization back online from the remnants of the old civilization. Now, back to the anthraite
10:19
region in Pennsylvania. We are told that the demand for anthraite coal increased in the 1820s and 1830s as coal power
10:26
replaced water power and with the growth of the iron industry in Pennsylvania. Anthraite coal is the purest form of
10:33
coal and this region contains most of the world's supply of anthraite coal.
10:39
Today, this part of northeastern Pennsylvania is considered one of the largest concentrations of disturbed
10:44
terrain in the world with billions of tons of debris found in the landscape of abandoned strip mines. And this region
10:51
has among the highest poverty and unemployment rates in the United States with job loss from the decrease in coal
10:57
mining and the out migration of people because of it. We are told the American canal age was between 1790 and 1855 and
11:05
started in Pennsylvania where the first legislation surveying canals was passed in 1762. The construction of the Union
11:12
Canal between Middletown and Reading and Pennsylvania was said to have started under the administration of President
11:17
George Washington in 1792 and completed in 1828 and was touted as the golden
11:23
link in providing an early transportation route for shipping anthroite coal and lumber to Philadelphia. The main line of public
11:30
works of which the Union Canal was part of was passed by the Pennsylvania legislature in 1826 and funded various
11:37
transportation systems including Canal, Road, and Railroad. This is lock number
11:42
five of the old Union Canal. This section of the Union Canal was said to have been closed after the dam holding
11:48
the reservoir was washed away by a devastating flood in 1862. and the rest
11:53
of the Union Canal was said to have been closed to use in 1885 because it could not compete with the efficiency of the
12:00
railroad. We are told the lower section of the Lehigh Canal was built between
12:05
Eastern Pennsylvania and Mock Chunk, now known as Jim Thorp, Pennsylvania, with
12:10
construction said to been started in 1818 and completed in 1838. This map
12:15
also has a caption at the bottom that says this was the original Lehigh Valley Railroad line as well, which was said to
12:22
have opened in 1855. This is a view of the Lehigh Canal as it
12:27
appeared at one time in our history in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, located along this section in between today's Jim
12:33
Thorp and East. The National Canal Museum in Easton is dedicated to telling the story of
12:40
America's historic topath canals in Easton. The Lehi Canal connected with
12:46
the Pennsylvania Canal's Delaware Division and the Morris Canal, also known as the Delaware Canal. The
12:52
Pennsylvania Canal was said to have been built to feed anthraite coal to Philadelphia in the years between 1828
12:59
and 1834. It ran along the right bank of the Delaware River for 60 mi or 97 km to
13:06
Bristol, just north of Philadelphia. The Morris Canal was 107 mi or 172 km
13:13
long and said to have been completed in 1832 to carry anthraite coal across
13:18
northern New Jersey between where it connected to the Delaware Canal in Easton to what is today Jersey City on
13:25
the Hudson River. It was closed in 1924. It was hailed as an ingenious
13:30
technological marvel for its use of water-driven inclined planes. The
13:35
builders of the Morris Canal used a sophisticated powerhouse technology pictured here to power the water turbine
13:42
that was set in motion to raise or lower cradled boats on the inclined planes by
13:47
means of a cable. Yet they still needed mules to pull the canal boats and places
13:52
on the Morris Canal in spite of all of that sophisticated technology. So in my opinion, the first of the original
13:59
infrastructure we see coming back online in the postc cataclysmic new world were the canals. In the old world, the power
14:06
supply for the canals would have been the same free energy generated by the earth's worldwide grid system. And in
14:12
the new world, they had to use mule power to be able to utilize the original canal system because that was all they
14:17
had available for power. Back to the Lehigh Gorge State Park. What remains of
14:23
the original Lehigh Valley Railroad operations run today as the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway. The excursion through
14:29
the Lehi Gorge begins in Jim Thorp, Pennsylvania, formerly known as Mock Chunk at the southern end of the state
14:35
park. Mach was nicknamed the Switzerland of America for its steep hillsides,
14:41
narrow streets, and terrace gardens. The Asa Packer mansion here was said to have
14:46
been completed in 1861, which would have been the first year of the American Civil War. We are told that Asa Packer
14:53
was among other things a coal and railroad magnet, philanthropist, and founder of Lehigh University near
15:00
Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, which was founded in 1865, the last year of the American Civil War. At the time of his
15:07
death, the value of Asa Packer's estate was $54.5 million, and he was considered
15:13
to be the richest man in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania at that time. And Asa Packer was a Freemason,
15:20
too. Renamed Jim Thorp in 1954 for the Native
15:25
American sports legend who was buried here. Mockchunk was founded as a company town in 1818 by Josiah White and his
15:32
partners who were also founders of the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company. The Lehi Coal and Navigation Company was a
15:39
mining and transportation company that was headquartered in Mock Chunk. It operated from 1818 until it was
15:45
dissolved in 1964 and was known for having an early and influential role in the American industrial revolution. The
15:52
Lehi Cola Navigation Company was considered to be the first vertically integrated company in the United States.
15:59
Vertical integration is where the supply chain of a company is owned by the company. Other examples of the adoption
16:06
of the business practice of vertical integration off the top of my head by Adulphus Bush as head of Anhouser Bush
16:12
Brewing Association. Bush adopted vertical integration as a business practice in which he bought all the
16:18
components of his business from bottling factories to ice manufacturing plants to buying the rights from Rudolph Diesel to
16:25
manufacture all diesel engines in America. This illustration was of the Bivo bottling facility in St. Louis.
16:32
Adulus Bush died in 1913 with a net worth of $60 million at the time of his
16:37
death. Henry Ford also utilized the practice of vertical integration in the Ford Motor Company. The introduction and
16:44
refinement of the assembly line facilitated the mass production of new cars which in turn made the purchase of
16:50
a new car affordable for most people. As we go through all the information that will be presented in this video, we will
16:56
see why it was yet another replacement technology for the original transportation system which was powered
17:01
by free energy. Henry Ford was also the 13th wealthiest American of all time
17:07
according to CNN Business with an adjusted wealth of 67.2 billion.
17:13
Henry Ford was also an acknowledged 33rd degree Freemason.
17:18
Back to the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company and Mock Chunk. It had its beginnings as a Lehi Coal Mine Company
17:25
in 1792 after we are told a hunter named Philip Ginter discovered anthraite coal
17:31
on Pisca Mountain near Summit Hill near the border between Luzern and Carbon counties. The Lehi Coalmine Company was
17:39
incorporated in 1793 and acquired 10,000 acres or 4,000 hectares in and around
17:45
Panther Creek Valley and Pisca Mountain in order to bring anthroite coal from the large deposits on Pisca Mountain to
17:52
Philadelphia via mule trains and coal arcs or one-time single-use boats on the
17:58
Lehi and Delaware rivers. We are told that while the original Lehi coal mine company was able to sell all
18:05
the coal it could to the available market, it lost a lot of coal to the rough waters of the unimproved Lehi
18:11
River. So they sold the original company to Josiah White and his partners in 1818. In a nutshell, this is what we are
18:18
told. In the same year, in 1818, the new owners of the Lehigh Coalmine Company
18:23
began the construction of the Lehi Canal and that it became usable in 1820. The
18:28
Lehi Canal enabled the transport of anthraite coal, a primary energy source at the time, to the primary markets in
18:35
the northeastern United States and we are told inspired the development and connection of other regional canals. The
18:42
new owners of the Lehi Coalmine Company were said to have been behind the construction of the Lehi and Susuana
18:47
Railroad between 1839 and 1841. The Ashley Plains, an historic freight
18:55
cable railroad between Ashley and Mountaintop, said to have been built between 1837 and 1838 to transport
19:02
millions of tons of anthraite coal over the Wilsbury Mountain and brought in blast furnace technology to the Lehigh
19:09
Valley, a type of metallurgical furnace used for smelting to produce industrial metals. Smelting is defined as a process
19:17
by which metal is obtained either as a single element or compound. In 1822, the
19:23
company became the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company, after which time we are told they built the Mock Chunk and
19:29
Summit Hill Railroad. The Mock Chunk and Summit Hill Railroad, also known as the Mock Chunk Switchback Railway, was said
19:36
to have been built in 1827 and operated until 1932. It was said to be the second permanent
19:42
railway constructed in the United States and used to transport coal down Summit Hill to the Lehigh Canal. Mockchunk Jim
19:50
Thorp was also a key location on the Central Railroad of New Jersey in the shipping of anthraite coal. The Central
19:57
Railroad of New Jersey was said to have built the Mockchung Station in 1888 in the Queen Anne Victorian architectural
20:03
style. Today it is owned and operated by the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railroad.
20:08
This is what we are told about the Central Railroad of New Jersey. The origins of the Central Railroad of New
20:14
Jersey began in 1831 with the incorporation of the Elizabeth and Somerville Railroad, which was
20:19
operational by 1842. In 1847, the Somerville and the Eastern
20:25
Railroad was incorporated, purchased the Elizabeth and Somerville, and the name was changed to the Central Railroad
20:30
Company of New Jersey. By 1852, the line reached Philipsburg, New Jersey on the
20:36
Delaware River and was extended across Newark Bay to Jersey City in 1864,
20:41
one year before the end of the American Civil War in 1865. From Jersey City, the railroad kept extending out to major
20:48
cities like Newark, Flemington, Perth, Amboy, Chester, and Wharton. We are told
20:53
that the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company built the CJ's lines in Pennsylvania, which was used primarily
20:59
for the shipment of anthraite coal. The Central Railroad of New Jersey terminal in Jersey City was said to have been
21:06
built in 1889 to replace an earlier one and is located next to the big basin of
21:11
the Morris Canal on the Hudson Waterfront in today's Liberty State Park as it is in close proximity to Ellis
21:17
Island and the Statue of Liberty in upper New York Bay. It was operational as a terminal until April 30th of 1967.
21:25
An estimated 10.5 million immigrants processed through here at one time in America's history when Ellis Island was
21:32
operational as an immigrant processing station between 1892 and 1954.
21:38
The architectural style of the Central Railroad of New Jersey terminal building is called Richardsonian Romanesque after
21:45
architect Henry Hobson Richardson who was said to have first used elements of this style in the Buffalo State Asylum
21:51
for the Insane in Buffalo, New York, which he is said to have designed in 1870. And Frederick Lstead was the
21:58
landscape architect and it was a Kirkbrite facility. The Buffalo State Asylum for the Insane was closed for
22:04
that purpose in the 1970s. In 1854, Dr. Thomas S. Kirkbride first published what
22:10
was considered the source book in the 19th century for psychiatric directives entitled on the construction
22:16
organization and general arrangements of hospitals for the insane with some remarks on insanity and its treatment.
22:23
We are told that throughout the 19th century numerous insane asylums were designed and constructed according to
22:29
the Kirkbride plan across the United States. And while numerous Kirkbride structures still exist, many have been
22:35
demolished, partially demolished, or repurposed. Today, the former Buffalo State Asylum for the Insane is known as
22:42
the Richardson Olmstead Complex and was repurposed as a hotel, which opened in
22:47
2023, and is considered one of the most haunted places in Buffalo, if not
22:52
Western New York. Richardsonian romanesque is described as a free revival style incorporating 11th and
22:58
12th century southern French, Spanish and Italian romanesque characteristics.
23:04
Henry Hobson Richardson had a relatively short career and didn't even complete his architecture school training in
23:10
Paris because he lost family backing because of the American Civil War. Yet somehow by the time he died at a
23:15
relatively young age of 47 in our historical narrative, he left behind a
23:20
legacy of mindblowingly ornate architecture. One more thing about the central railroad of New Jersey here, all
23:27
of the new railroad lines that were popping up betw twixed and between these large population centers and the Jersey
23:33
shore were like Atlantic City going right through the desolate, swampy, and forbidding pine barons. Today, there are
23:40
abandoned trains and railroad lines found throughout the New Jersey Pine Barons. The Delaware Lacawana and
23:46
Western Railroad mainline passed through the southern end of the Mount Pocono Burrow, which provided access to the
23:52
burrow from New York City via the terminal at Hoboken, New Jersey. One of the New York area's major transportation
23:59
hubs, the terminal at Hoboken was said to have been constructed by the Delaware, Lacawana, and Western Railroad
24:04
in 1907 and combined railroad, ferry, subway, street car, and pedestrian
24:10
services. We are told that numerous electric street car lines originated and ended at the station until the
24:16
completion of busitution in August of 1949, at which time they were replaced
24:22
by buses. This included the Hoboken inclined cable railway which consisted
24:27
of several lines including the Palisad line that traveled from Edgewater to Palisades Amusement Park which operated
24:33
from 1898 to 1971 and the Elorado elevator which met a
24:38
street car line that traveled along a trestle to a cut in the Palisades which ran parallel to the Elorado and
24:44
amusement park that opened in 1891 and closed as an amusement park in 1894
24:50
except for the hotel casino which was described desribed as Moish inspired. The Elorado's main building was used to
24:57
host boxing matches and VAL performances until it burned down in a massive fire in 1898.
25:04
There is still a Hoboken terminal in use today as an intramotal transportation hub. The New York Central Railroad was
25:11
said to be operating in 1853 with the consolidation of earlier independent companies running between Albany and
25:17
Buffalo. This graphic depicts the New York Central Rail system as of 1918.
25:23
The Staten Island born Cornelius Vanderbilt got his start in regional steamboat lines and oceangoing steam
25:29
ships and from there got into the railroad business. He bought control of the Hudson River Railroad in 1864, the
25:36
New York Central Railroad in 1867, the Lakeshore and Michigan Southern Railroad in 1869, and the Canada
25:44
Southern Railway in 1876. He consolidated his two key lines into
25:50
the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad in 1870, becoming one of the first giant
25:55
corporations in the history of the United States. According to CNN Business, Cornelius Vanderbilt was the
26:02
second richest American in history with an adjusted wealth of $25 billion.
26:08
I was also able to find a reference saying that the Vanderbilts were known Freemasons.
26:13
I have taken a very close look at the region of Pennsylvania around the Moshannan State Forest near Philipsburg
26:19
and this region's official history which among other things was important to the settlement and industrialization of
26:25
America and also the wealthy and influential men behind it all. We are told Philipsburg Burrow was founded in
26:31
1797 by one Henry Phillips who purchased 350,000 acres on the western side of the
26:37
Alageney Mountains for $173,000 and then proceeded to auction the land off on the streets of Philadelphia for 2
26:44
cents per acre. The region developed around the coal mining and lumber industries. The Beach Creek Railroad
26:52
between the South Jersey Shore and Mafy Burough, Pennsylvania, and part of the Susuana and Southwestern Railroad was
26:58
used for coal mining services in the region starting in 1884. This railroad ran near State College, home of Penn
27:05
State University and not far from Altuna, Pennsylvania. Mahaffy Burough, first incorporated in
27:11
1841, was located on US Route 219 at the junction of the New York Central
27:17
Railroad and the Hudson River Railroad. The arrows point to where railroad tracks ran along S-shaped riverbends on
27:23
this section of US Route 219 going through Mafy Burough. This railroad
27:28
project in Pennsylvania was said to have been backed and financed by William H. Vanderbilt, the oldest son of Cornelius
27:34
Vanderbilt and who was the president of the New York Central Railroad. William H. Vanderbilt had developed a plan to
27:40
facilitate railroad access to enter the Clearfield Coal, a large juicy coal mining area in Clearfield County, which
27:47
would have otherwise been exclusively accessed by the Pennsylvania Railroad. It was said to have been constructed
27:52
starting at the end of 1882 to high standards, including extensive curvature, bridges, and a tunnel, and
27:58
became operational in November of 1884. Eventually, this railroad line provided
28:04
passenger service and used as such until 1990. In 1994, the right-of-way was
28:10
acquired by the Headwaters Charitable Trust for the Snowshoe Railto Trail project and the rail went away. Along
28:17
with the coal mining going on in Pennsylvania, there were extensive logging activities. For example, the
28:23
Moshannan State Forest near Philipsburg was formed as a direct result of the depletion of the forest of Pennsylvania.
28:28
That happened in the mid to late 19th century when lumber and iron companies clearcut the forests. Then we are told
28:34
that sparks from passing steam locomotives caused wildfires from the remnants of the forest lands preventing
28:40
the growth of new forests. The land that became Moshannan State Forest was purchased by the state in 1898. The old
28:47
growth forest was gone by 1921 with a second growth forest replacing it since then. Interesting to note that a tornado
28:54
in 1985 tore through the forest and destroyed an estimated 88,000 trees.
29:00
There was much logging going on from this region. So the Suscuana boom was said to have been built in the 1850s
29:06
across the west Sescuana River at Williamsport. a system of cribs and chained logs designed to catch and hold
29:12
floating timber until it could be processed and logging railroads built to transport the lumber to the tune of 45
29:18
cars per day until logging ended here when all the trees were gone. The lumbermen left a barren landscape that
29:24
was devastated by fires, flooding, and erosion for many years until the CCC came in the 1930s and started replanting
29:31
trees after the state of Pennsylvania bought the deforested land from the central Pennsylvania Lumber Company in
29:38
1930. The Civilian Conservation Corps or CCC operated from 1933 to 1942 in the United
29:46
States for unemployed unmarried men to do manual labor related to the conservation and development of natural
29:52
resources in rural lands owned by federal, state, and local governments. Originally for young men ages 18 to 25,
29:59
it was eventually expanded to ages 17 to 28. In the nine years of its operation,
30:04
the CCC employed three million young men, providing them with food, shelter, and clothing, and a wage of $30 per
30:11
month, $25 of which had to be sent home to their families. There's no doubt in my mind that the CCC
30:18
and the other alphabet programs of FDR's New Deal during the Great Depression, like the WPA and TVA, were being used to
30:26
cover up the ancient advanced civilization. In the nearby city of State College, the
30:31
location of the University of Pennsylvania, Andrew Carnegi had begun mining iron ore in Scotia in 1881 for
30:38
his steel mills in Pittsburgh. And by 1887, we are told that a new era of iron
30:44
making in the Nitney Valley began with the opening of the Nitney and Belfonte furnaces along Buffalo Run near its
30:50
junction with Spring Creek and three railroads that were said to have been constructed to haul the iron ore to
30:56
them. the Belfonte Central, BFC Central Railroad, CRR, and Nitany Valley
31:02
Railroad, NV. By 1911, both of these furnaces had been shut down. By 1950,
31:09
all the railroads that had once served the area, either for the iron related industry or passenger service, including
31:15
the Pennsylvania Railroad lines circled in blue, were no longer in service. The
31:21
only historic rail line here that became operational again was a portion of the Belfonte Central after the Belfonte
31:27
Historical Railroad was organized as an excursion line in 1985 and occasionally
31:32
offers runs as a tourist attraction. Altuna in Pennsylvania is only 43 mi or
31:38
70 km southwest of State College. Altuna was said to have been established by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1849.
31:46
The horseshoe curve in Altuna is a three-track railroad curve that is described as one of the world's most
31:52
incredible engineering feats and was said to be accomplished by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1854.
31:59
It was said to have replaced the original Alagany Portage Railroad, which was said to be the first railroad
32:04
constructed through the Alageney Mountains in 1834 and connected to the Pennsylvania Canal. All of which was
32:11
said to have been built as part of the transportation system by the mainline of public works that was mentioned at the
32:17
beginning of this video after it was passed by the Pennsylvania legislature in 1826. Considered a technological
32:24
marvel in its day and critical to opening the way for commerce and settlement past the Appalachian
32:29
Mountains, the original Alageney Portage Railroad consisted of a series of five inclines on either side of the
32:35
ridgeeline to Crescent Summit alongside what is called the Little Con River to where it meets the Kone River at
32:41
Johnstown. Interesting things to note along the historic route of the Alageney Portage
32:46
Railroad are as follows. After leaving the main canal location of Holidaysburg
32:51
and going up towards Crescent Summit, we first come to the lopsided looking skew arch bridge called the only purposefully
32:58
built bridge on the portage and crossed over the railway. It was said to have been built in the 1830s as part of the
33:05
early road system. Today, the Skew Arch Bridge is preserved in the middle of old US Route 22 and the new US Route 22. US
33:13
Route 22 is an east-west numbered highway from 1926 that runs from Cincinnati in Ohio to Newark in New
33:20
Jersey and passes through West Virginia and Pennsylvania on the way. The next
33:25
landmark on the Alagany Portage Railroad's journey through the Alagany Mountains is the summit at Cresen, a
33:31
burrow which in Pennsylvania is a municipal entity like a town or small city on top of the Eastern Continental
33:37
Divide. US Route 22 is one of the highways that accesses Crescent. Back in
33:42
the industrial heyday of the late 19th century and early 20th century, there were lumber, coal, and cokeyard
33:48
industries here. Wealthy Pittsburgh businessmen like Andrew Carnegi, Henry Clayfrick, and
33:55
Charles Schwab, all connected to each other through the steel industry, had summer residences here, like Carnegi's
34:01
Braar Cottage in Crescent. Andrew Carnegi was a Scottish immigrant
34:06
to America who came to Pittsburgh in 1848 with his parents at the age of 12,
34:11
got his start as a telegrapher, and who by the 1860s had investments in such
34:16
things as railroads, bridges, and oil derks, and ultimately worked his way into being a major player in Pittsburgh
34:22
steel industry. I couldn't find a picture of Andrew Carnegie as a Freemason, but I could find a reference
34:28
to him being a famous freemason on a Masonic website. His first steel mill
34:33
was operational by 1874, the Edgar Thompson Steel Works, named after the president of the Pennsylvania Railroad
34:40
with his partners, one of whom was Henry Clayfrick, the owner of a coke manufacturing company, a product used in
34:46
making steel. They subsequently acquired other steel mills and in 1892 the
34:52
Carnegi Steel Company was formed of which Henry Clayfrick became chairman and in 1897 Charles M. Schwab, who had
34:59
gotten his start as an engineer at the Edgar Thompson Steelworks, became president of the CargI Steel Company in
35:05
1897. In 1901, Charles M. Schwab helped negotiate the sale of Carnegie Steel
35:11
with a merger involving it with Albert Garry's Federal Steel Company and William Henry Moore's National Steel
35:17
Company to a group of New York City financiers led by JP Morgan. After the sale of Carnegie Steel, Andrew Carnegie
35:24
surpassed John D. Rockefeller as the richest American at the time and Charles M. Schwab became the first president of
35:30
the newly minted US Steel Company. Andrew Carnegi was ranked as the sixth
35:35
richest American of all time by CNN business with an adjusted wealth of 101 billion.
35:41
After the former Alageney Portage Railroad left the summit at Cresen on its downward descent in elevation into
35:48
Johnstown along the Little Cone River, we come to the South Fork of the Little Cone River and what was the former
35:54
location of the South Fork Dam. The famous Johnstown flood on May 31st of 1889, the worst flood in the United
36:01
States in the 19th century was caused by the catastrophic failure of the South Fork Dam and was the second major
36:06
disaster the American Red Cross responded to after the Michigan Thumb, which started on September 5th of 1881
36:13
with hurricane force winds and hot and dry conditions. And that was less than four months after the establishment of
36:19
the American Red Cross in May of 1881. John D. Rockefeller was among several that donated to create a national
36:26
headquarters for the American Red Cross near the White House in Washington DC and said to have been built between 1915
36:32
and 1917. More on John D. Rockefeller shortly. The South Fork Dam was said to have been an
36:39
earthwork built between 1838 and 1853 as part of a canal system as a reservoir
36:44
for a canal basin in Johnstown by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. But then after spending 15 years building the
36:50
dam, it was abandoned by the Commonwealth and sold to the Pennsylvania Railroad, who turned around
36:55
and sold it to private interests. In 1881, speculators had bought the
37:01
abandoned reservoir and built a clubhouse called the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club and cottages, turning
37:07
it into an exclusive retreat for 61 steel and coal financiers from Pittsburgh, including Andrew Carnegie,
37:13
Henry Clayfrick, Andrew Melon, Philander Knox, John Leechman, and Daniel Johnson Morell. The South Fork Fishing and
37:21
Hunting Club was a Pennsylvania corporation and owned the South Fork Dam. Henry Clayfrick was a founding
37:27
member of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club and was actually said to have been largely responsible for the
37:33
alterations to the South Fork Dam that led to its failure. Interesting to note that I did find this reference on the
37:39
website of the Pleasant Valley Masonic Center in Connellsville, Pennsylvania that Henry Clayfrick was in Freemason
37:45
and its King Solomon's Lodge number 346 from 1872 to 1877
37:51
at which time he resigned as an active mason. But from what this entry says, his Masonic lodge continued to enjoy the
37:58
benefits of his generosity long afterwards, as well as that of his daughter. What we are told is that the
38:04
South Fork Dam failed after days of unusually heavy rain and 14.3 million tons of water from the reservoir of Lake
38:11
Kone devastated the South Fork Valley, including Johntown 12 m or 19 km
38:17
downstream from the dam, killing an estimated 2,29 people and causing $17
38:22
million in damages in 1889, which would be $490 million in 2020. Though there
38:29
were years of claims and litigation, the elite and wealthy members of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club were never
38:34
found liable for damages. In 1904, the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club Corporation was disbanded and assets
38:40
sold at a public auction by the sheriff and there were permanent exhibits in many places like Atlantic City depicting
38:47
the horrors of the Johntown Flood Experience for public consumption build as a thrilling account of the awful
38:53
floods and their appalling ruin. The South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club building and the nine remaining of 16
38:59
club member cottages still stand today and are under the opaces of the National Park Service as part of the Johntown
39:05
Flood National Memorial. So now we come to Johntown which is located 57 mi or 92 km east of
39:13
Pittsburgh. It is at the confluence of the Kone and the Stony Creek Rivers. This is a map of the 1889 Johnstown
39:19
flood direction from the National Park Service. Massive debris is marked at the Stonebridge location.
39:26
The Stone Bridge is a sevenarch railroad bridge that was said to have been constructed by the Pennsylvania Railroad
39:32
between 1887 and 1888. The Stone Bridge itself survived the flood, but it
39:38
trapped all kinds of debris, including miles of barbed wire that had been swept away by the raging flood waters. The
39:44
debris at the bridge caught on fire and burned for three days, killing many people that were trapped in the debris.
39:50
If the failure of the South Fork Dam and the subsequent catastrophic Johnstown flood was deliberately caused by the
39:56
prestigious members of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club, which evidence in the narrative suggests was the case,
40:03
then apparently these men had no care or concern for the death, destruction, and suffering for which they were never held
40:09
accountable that they caused down river. From 1834 to 1854, Johntown was a key
40:15
transfer point on the Pennsylvania Mainline Canal. At the head of the canal's western branch, canal boats were
40:21
transported over the mountains by the Alagany Portage Railroad to continue the trip by water to Pittsburgh at the forks
40:27
of the Ohio and onto the Ohio River Valley. Both Johnstown on one side of
40:33
the Alagany Portage Railroad and the Horseshoe Curve near Altuna on the other side likely have operational remnants of
40:40
the original incline railway system, though that's not what we've been told about them. The Johntown inclined plane
40:46
was said to have been designed by Hungarian American engineer Samuel Disher and completed in 1891 to serve as
40:52
an escape route from floods in the valley at the confluence of the Konaw and Stony Creek rivers and to connect
40:58
Johntown with the burrow of Westmont on Yodar Hill. Build is the world's steepest vehicular inclined plane. Its
41:05
slope has a grade of 71.9% and it takes 90 seconds for it to travel in between
41:10
the two stations. The inclined plane railway back at Horseshoe Curve near Altuna was said to
41:16
have been built in the 1990s to take tourists up to the park above to get a scenic view of the incredible
41:21
engineering feat by the Pennsylvania Railroad circa 1854 of the horseshoe curve and its three tracks that
41:27
eliminated the need for the Alagany Portage Railroads 10 incline planes. Incline railways work like an obliquely
41:34
angled elevator in which cables attached to a pulley system raise and lower the cars along the grade. Two cars are
41:41
paired at opposite ends and act as each other's counterwe. As such, there's not a need for traction between the wheels
41:47
and the rails, and thereby allowing them to scale steep slopes, unlike traditional rail cars. Thing is, there
41:53
used to be way more of them than there are now, and inclined railways were a worldwide thing. Now, they were mostly
41:59
either tourist attractions or kept in service as an important part of a community's transportation
42:04
infrastructure from low ground to high ground. Back in Johnstown, come to find out that the main highway connecting
42:10
Johntown to the Pennsylvania Turnpike is US Route 219, which makes a lot of appearances here, as does US19. And more
42:19
on both to come in this video. The north south US Route 19 runs from its northern
42:24
terminus at US Route 20 at Lake Erie in Erie, Pennsylvania to its southern
42:29
terminus at an interchange with US41 in Memphis, Florida, just south of St. Petersburg. The petroleum industry in
42:37
the United States began in earnest in 1859 when Edwin Drake found oil on a piece of leased land near Titusville,
42:44
Pennsylvania in what is now called Oil Creek State Park. For this reason,
42:49
Titusville is called the birthplace of the oil industry. And for a number of years, this part of Pennsylvania was the
42:54
leading oil producing region in the world. Today, not surprisingly, the Oil Creek
42:59
State Park Trail runs on the bed of the first railroad line to reach Titusville, the Oil Creek Railroad. Samuel Kir had
43:07
established America's first oil refinery in Pittsburgh in 1854 for making lamp oil, just 5 years before oil was found
43:14
in Titusville. So, it certainly appears like the petroleum industry was developed in the
43:21
1850s in order to provide a replacement energy technology for the free energy technology of the original civilization.
43:28
Roughly a decade after the birth of the oil industry at Titusville in 1870, John
43:33
D. Rockefeller along with Henry Flagler, an American industrialist and major developer in the state of Florida,
43:39
founded this Standard Oil Company, an American oil producing, transporting, refining, and marketing company. Oil was
43:46
used in the form of kerosene throughout the country as a light source and heat source until the introduction of
43:52
electricity and as a fuel source for the automobile with the first gas-powered automobile having been patented by Carl
43:58
Benz in 1886. John D. Rockefeller who was born in the United States in 1839 was the progenitor
44:05
of the wealthy Rockefeller family. He was considered to be the wealthiest American of all time as seen in this
44:11
ranking by CNN Business with an adjusted wealth of $253 billion. Rockefeller's
44:17
wealth soared as kerosene and gasoline grew in importance. At his peak, he controlled 90% of all oil. As quickly as
44:25
possible, a way was found to replace what remained of the free energy system with their own coal and oil-based system
44:32
and in the process make money handover fist from the total control of the new system. Interesting to note that West
44:39
Hickory is a short distance of just 14 mi or 22 km south of Titusville, where
44:44
the tallest recorded skeleton in North America was found at 18 ft or 5.5 m. The
44:51
previously mentioned US Highway Route 19 goes through Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh is the largest city in Appalachia and the
44:57
Ohio Valley. It developed as the vital link between the Atlantic coast and the Midwest with examples like the Alageney
45:04
Portage Railroad connecting the Pennsylvania Main Canal to Pittsburgh and the Ohio River and points west of
45:10
the Alageney Mountains. Samuel Disher, who is credited with the design of the Johnstown Incline, was also credited
45:16
with the design of one of Pittsburgh's two remaining inclines, of the 17 that were originally on Mount Washington, the
45:23
Dukane incline, which opened in 1877. It was closed in need of repairs in 1962,
45:29
but reopened the next year after local residents raised funds to restore it, and it has been completely refurbished
45:35
since then and is one of Pittsburgh's most popular tourist attractions. The Manonga incline on Mount Washington was
45:43
said to have been designed by Prussianborn engineer John Andress of Cincinnati, Ohio, and started operating
45:48
in 1870. It is the oldest continuously operating finicular in the United
45:53
States. Interesting to note that 1870, the same year the Mananga incline became
45:59
operational in Pittsburgh, was also the same year that John D. Rockefeller and Henry Flagler founded the Standard Oil
46:05
Company. Pittsburgh played a dominant role in the development of the US steel industry.
46:11
Many leading industrialists of the 19th century were based in Pittsburgh and resided in the East Liberty neighborhood
46:17
in Pittsburgh's East End at one time the richest suburb in America with names
46:23
like Melon, Carnegie, Hines, and Westinghouse living there. We are told
46:28
that East Liberty started developing as a commercial area in 1842 when Thomas
46:33
Melon, prominent businessman and patriarch of the Melon family in Pittsburgh, married Sarah J. Negley, the
46:39
daughter of one of the earliest land owners in the area and made East Liberty their home. We are told that Thomas
46:44
Melon made his fortune selling or renting land inherited by his wife and used the proceeds to finance early
46:51
industries in Pittsburgh. Once again in 1870 he and his sons Andrew and Richard
46:56
established the T-Melon and Sons Bank and it became the Melon National Bank in 1902. It became a force in the mass
47:03
production revolution in the United States particularly in the Midwest. A national bank is a private bank
47:09
operating as a commercial bank within the federal government's regulatory structure and under the supervision of
47:14
the office of the controller of the currency rather than a state banking agency. At one time in our history,
47:21
national banks had the authority to print money. At its height, Melon Financial Services was one of the
47:27
world's largest money management firms. It merged with the Bank of New York in 2007 to become BNY Melon. Richard Melon
47:35
with an adjusted wealth of $ 103 billion is listed as the fifth wealthiest American of all time by CNN Business and
47:42
a founder of Gulf Oil and Alcoa Aluminum as well as a number of other big corporations along with his brother
47:49
Andrew Melon who is listed as the 15th wealthiest American of all time by CNN Business with an adjusted wealth of 63.2
47:57
billion. It is important to note that Andrew Melon was an acknowledged Freemason and also the US Secretary of
48:03
the Treasury from March 9th of 1921 to February 12th of 1932, presiding over
48:09
the boom years of the 1920s as well as the Wall Street crash of October of 1929, which led directly to the Great
48:16
Depression. Andrew Melon was also a close friend of
48:22
Henry Clayfrick and a member of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club along with Andrew Carnegi on the
48:27
property where the dam failed that caused the Johntown flood as previously discussed along with Andrew Melon as we
48:34
saw earlier in the section on Johntown. Andrew Carnegi and Henry Clayfrick were initiated into Freemasonry with Henry
48:41
Clayfrick active for only 5 years but supporting Freemasonry his entire life.
48:47
It's important to note that with the philanthropic activities spoken of these extremely wealthy men which are made to
48:54
sound extremely benevolent and meant to benefit humanity, it seems like their intent was highly questionable as to
49:00
their actual motives. We have seen or referenced all four of these men who received the top billing as robber
49:06
barons and more on Morgan to come. Among many other things, both the Rockefeller
49:11
and CargI foundations have been highly involved in the American educational system.
49:17
Even as early as 1914, the National Education Association expressed alarm at the activity of the Carnegie and
49:23
Rockefeller Foundations and their efforts to control the policies of state educational institutions and everything
49:29
related to the educational system. Now I'm going to go back to US 219 that
49:36
we saw in John'stown and take it on down to where it ends at Bluefield, Virginia, right across the state border from
49:41
Bluefield, West Virginia, where it meets up with US 19. The land beneath the two blue fields
49:48
contains the richest deposit of batuminous coal in the world known as the Pocahontas coal field or the flattop
49:55
Pocahontas coal field named after the flattop mountain on US19 in West Virginia and Pocahontas Virginia where
50:02
the first coal seam here was discovered. The Pocahontas coal field started to be mined in 1882.
50:09
Pocahontas in Virginia was named after the famous daughter of Chief Powhattan seen mostly in connection with the 17th
50:16
century Jamestown colony, the first permanent English settlement in the Americas. This is the most famous
50:22
depiction of Pocahontas from her time on the left. But this is how we've been taught to see Pocahontas and Powhattan
50:28
on the right. We are told that Bluefield in West Virginia with its great location with
50:34
respect to the developing Pocahontas coal field was selected as the location of a major division point on the Norfolk
50:41
and Western Railway in the late 19th century and that the railroad greatly stimulated the town's growth. So much so
50:48
that in its heyday, Bluefield was considered a little New York. The Chesapeake and Ohio Railway was formed
50:54
in 1869 from several smaller Virginia railroads under the guidance of Collus P. Huntington. Also around the same time
51:01
that the Standard Oil Company was founded in order to connect the coal reserves of West Virginia with the new
51:07
coal peers that were built in Hampton Roads and Newport, News, Virginia, and first opened in 1873, forging a rail
51:13
link to places like Chicago and the Midwest. The city of Huntington in West Virginia was named for him.
51:21
Huntington was said to be one of the first American cities to have electric street cars with service believed to
51:26
have started around the end of 1888 and ran until the 1920s during which time
51:31
the Ohio Valley Electric Railway had organized a gas-powered bus service which by November of 1937 had completely
51:39
replaced all of Huntington's former electric street car lines. Collus P. Huntington was one of the big four of
51:46
western railroading along with Leland Stanford, Mark Hopkins, and Charles Crocker. We are told that after the
51:52
Chesapeake and Ohio Railway opened at the New River Gorge region in 1873,
51:57
coal was carried out of the New River Gorge to the ports in Virginia and to the cities in the Midwest. As a result,
52:04
by 1905, 13 cities sprang up between Fyet and Thurund, which was 15 mi or 24
52:10
km upstream and provided the West Virginia coal that contributed greatly to the industrialization of the United
52:16
States until the 1950s. After the coal seams were exhausted and mines closed,
52:22
these company towns were for the most part completely abandoned, with the possible exception of Thurund, which had
52:28
a very small population of five in 2010. It is interesting to note that at one
52:34
time in its history, Thurmont was a prosperous railroad town that was the largest revenue generating stop on the
52:40
CNO railroad where passenger and coal trains rolled through here throughout the day. Today, a visitor center for the
52:46
National Park Service operates here in the old railroad depot. CSX Transportation, formerly the CNO
52:53
Railroad, has freight transportation operations in and through historic Thurman. And the Amtrak Cardinal
52:59
passenger route goes through here, the second least used Amtrak station in the nation. As a matter of fact, the New
53:05
River Gorge is one of the places that I know of that still has a railroad operating right along beside the
53:10
S-shaped New River. The Amtrak Cardinal still runs through the New River Gorge three days per week on Sundays,
53:16
Wednesdays, and Fridays. So, like we saw back at the Lehigh Gorge in Pennsylvania with its railroad running alongside the
53:23
river, the waterfalls and the coal mining in the region, we find the same things here at the New River Gorge in
53:28
West Virginia. Besides the railroad line that runs along the New River through the New River Gorge, there are things
53:33
found in the gorge like historic coal mines, waterfalls, and hydro projects. In 1888, Collus P. Huntington lost
53:41
control of the railroad to JP Morgan, an American financier and investment banker who dominated corporate finance on Wall
53:47
Street during the guilded age between 1877 and 1900, and William K. Vanderbilt, who managed the Vanderbilts
53:54
family's railroad investments. William K. Vanderbilt was a grandson of Cornelius Vanderbilt. The process
54:01
continued on for the CNO railroad to consolidate and merge railroads and for example to gain access to productive
54:08
coal fields throughout the region through the 1920s. Next, I'm going to take a look at White
54:13
Sulfur Springs, West Virginia, which is to the southeast of the New River Gorge and to the northeast of the Pocahontas
54:18
Colefield region. White Sulphur Springs was said to have been settled in 1750 and developed as a health spa in the
54:25
1770s as the story goes after a woman was healed of rheumatism after bathing in the springs and calls itself
54:32
America's resort since 1778. The springs are on the grounds of the Greenbryer Hotel and Resort which was said to been
54:39
built by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company in 1913. Even today, the same Amtrak Cardinal
54:46
line that runs through the New River Gorge has a station at White Sulfur Springs. The Greenbryer Resort was at
54:52
one time a presidential getaway with President Eisenhower the last president in office to have stayed there with 27
54:58
presidents having stayed at the hotel before him. The president's cottage is a museum today.
55:04
A top secret superers sized underground bunker was said to have been constructed there in the 1950s during the Eisenhower
55:11
administration to serve as a relocation point for the US Congress in the event of a nuclear war. But when the secret
55:17
came out in a 1992 newspaper article, it was decommissioned. It had features like
55:23
a 25ton ton blast store that opened with only 50 pounds of pressure, its own power plant with purification equipment,
55:30
and the capacity for 75,000 gallons of water storage and 42,000 gallons of
55:35
diesel fuel. Every kind of medical care one would ever need, sleeping, meeting, and eating facilities for over a
55:42
thousand people. It was kept stocked with supplies for 30 years, but never used as an emergency location. In 1995,
55:50
the government ended the lease agreement with the Greenbryer and it was open to the public for tours which it offers to
55:55
this day. Today's Amtrak Cardinal line runs between New York and Chicago by way
56:00
of Washington DC through White Sulfur Springs, Cincinnati, and Indianapolis on its meandering route and was once a part
56:08
of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. Burk's Garden in Virginia is just to the
56:13
south of the Bluefield area and accessed from US19 and is the next place I want
56:18
to bring to your attention. Burk's Garden has a population of about 300 people in a place considered to have the
56:25
most fertile soil in Virginia, but no post office, no cell phone or cable service, cool to cold weather, and one
56:33
paved road to Tazwell, the nearest town about 15 miles or 23 km away. Burk's
56:39
garden was known as Vanderbilt's first choice for the Grants Builtmore estate. We are told that the land owners there
56:45
wouldn't sell to George Vanderbilt I so he went to Asheville and North Carolina instead. More on Asheville shortly.
56:52
There are a number of historic railroads in the vicinity of Burks Garden like the Norfolk and Western Railroads Clinch
56:58
Valley line between the coal fields of Bluefield running through Tazwell County beside US 19 to the highquality coal
57:04
fields of the Clinch River Valley south of Richlands. The last place I want to mention on US19 is Asheville and North
57:11
Carolina. Asheville is at the confluence of the French Broad and Swanoa rivers. George Vanderbilt II's Builtmore Estate
57:18
is divided by the French Broad River and its confluence with the Swanoa River is on the Builtmore Estate. This whole
57:25
region was part of the traditional lands of the Cherokee people. They were said to have seated their land here around
57:31
Asheville in 1819. The Cherokee were one of the five civilized tribes to be forcibly removed
57:37
from their land after the Indian Removal Act of 1830 was passed by Congress and enforced by Lewis Cass, Andrew Jackson's
57:44
Secretary of War, and the Cherokee were marched west to Indian territory in one of several Trails of Tears. So,
57:51
Asheville on US 19 ended up being the location chosen by George Vanderbilt II for the Builtmore Estate instead of his
57:57
first choice, Burk's Garden, also on US 19. The Builtmore estate is on 8,000
58:03
acres or 3,237 hectares of land. This is what we are
58:08
told about the Builtmore. It was said to have been a chatau style mansion, meaning in the revivalist Renaissance
58:14
architectural style, a French chateau of the Lir Valley, built for George Washington Vanderbilt II between 1885
58:21
and 1895. It is the largest privatelyowned residence in the United States and is considered one of the most
58:28
prominent of the guilded age mansions. The guilded age is a name given to the period of time in American history
58:34
between 1877 and 1900 that was a time of rapid industrialization and rapid
58:41
economic expansion. This would have roughly corresponded in our historical narrative to the reconstruction era
58:47
after the American Civil War which we are told ended in 1865 and the
58:52
progressive era which is what we are told was a period of widespread political activism and reform that
58:58
started in 1896. It was also a time when the contrast of the ostentatiousness of
59:03
the wealthy versus the abject poverty of the working class became more visible.
59:09
We are told that the famous landscape architect Frederick Law Olmstead was employed by George Washington Vanderbilt
59:15
II to design the landscape for the Builtmore estate. It was said to be
59:20
Frederick Law Olmstead's last project and he was memorialized in a plaque there.
59:25
George Washington Vanderbelt II was William Kissum Vanderbilt's brother who was mentioned earlier in this video as
59:32
having gained control of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad along with financier JP Morgan from Kus Huntington in 1888.
59:40
What we are told in our historical narrative is that George W. Vanderbilt II was supposed to sail on the RMS
59:46
Titanic with his wife, but they changed plans at the last minute.
59:51
JP Morgan has long been suspected of having been behind what has come down to us as the sinking of the Titanic. This
59:59
is what we are told on the Federal Reserve history website. A secret meeting took place on Jackal Island off
1:00:04
the coast of the state of Georgia to lay the foundations of the Federal Reserve between November 20th and November 30th
1:00:11
of 1910. The purpose of the meeting was so secret that what the six men talked about was a
1:00:18
closely guarded secret for many years and they did not admit to it until the 1930s. They were laying the foundation
1:00:24
for what would become the Federal Reserve system. Again, this information is from the
1:00:30
Federal Reserve history website. JP Morgan was a member of the exclusive Jackal Island Club and likely the one
1:00:37
who arranged for the group to use the club's facilities. George's brother, William K. Vanderbilt, was also a member
1:00:44
of what Muny's magazine described in 1904 as the richest, most exclusive, and
1:00:49
most inaccessible club in the world.
1:00:55
Arriving on a private train car, the group of men who attended the 10-day secret meeting on Juckle Island in
1:01:00
November of 1910 adopted the cover story of a duck hunt to explain their activities and hide the true purpose of
1:01:07
their meeting and addressed each other by their first names only. Hence, they adopted the name of the first name club.
1:01:17
This was the train station in Brunswick that serviced Jackal Island on the Southern and Atlantic Coast Railroad.
1:01:23
The Ogulthorp Hotel, pictured here, was said to have opened in January of 1888 after having been built on top of the
1:01:29
previous Ogulthorp House, which was said to burn down during the Civil War. It remained in operation until 1958, at
1:01:36
which time it was torn down and replaced by a Holiday Inn. The Holiday Inn was eventually torn down too, leaving an
1:01:43
empty lot in downtown Brunswick called the Ogulthorp block. Then on April 15th of 1912, we are told
1:01:50
the Titanic sank with all the bankers opposed to the creation of the Federal Reserve on board, including John Jacob
1:01:57
Aster IV, one of the richest people in the world at the time. The following year on December 23rd of 1913, the
1:02:05
Federal Reserve Act passed Congress signed into law by Wedro Wilson. It created and established the Federal
1:02:11
Reserve system and created the authority to issue Federal Reserve notes, commonly
1:02:17
known as the US dollar, as legal tender. John Jacob Aster IV was the great-grandson of the previously
1:02:23
mentioned John Jacob Aster, who made a fortune in real estate development, the fur trade, and opium smuggling. John
1:02:30
Jacob Aster was considered to be the world's first multi-millionaire and the third richest American of all time
1:02:36
according to CNN Business with an adjusted wealth of 138 billion. JP
1:02:42
Morgan himself didn't make the CNN business list of the 20th wealthiest Americans of all time. But he dominated
1:02:48
corporate finance on Wall Street throughout the guilded age and was a major driving force behind the wave of
1:02:54
industrial consolidation in the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Like the previously mentioned
1:03:00
US Steel in 1901, JP Morgan's father, Junius Spencer
1:03:05
Morgan, was the founder of the company that would become JS Morgan and Company in 1864, that was the successor company
1:03:12
to George Peabody and Company, of which he became the junior partner in October of 1854.
1:03:18
In 1854, Morgan was put in charge of the firm's iron portfolio, which included the marketing of railroad bonds in
1:03:24
London and New York. By the time JS Morgan died in 1890, the Morgan banks
1:03:29
were the dominant forces in government and railroad finance and his son JP Morgan had taken the helm of the
1:03:36
company, becoming known as JP Morgan and Company in 1895, now known as JP Morgan Chase and
1:03:42
Company. George Peabody's Bank became the premier American banking house in London after he took up residence from
1:03:49
Baltimore to London permanently in 1837 and went from being a wholesale dry
1:03:55
goods and cotton merchant to a merchant banker offering securities in American railroad and canal enterprises to
1:04:01
British and European investors. He started a banking business trading on his own account a year after he moved to
1:04:07
London. And by 1851, he established the banking firm of George Peabody and Company to meet the increasing demand
1:04:14
for securities issued by American railroads. And his company specialized in financing governments and large
1:04:20
companies. According to the secret founding of America book by Nicholas Hager, George
1:04:26
Peabody was the freemasonic banker from whom money was transferred to the southern insurrectionists and he hired
1:04:32
the father of JP Morgan to handle the funds when they arrived in the United States.
1:04:38
Banker George Peabody established the Peabody Institute in Baltimore in 1857
1:04:43
with a bequest of at least $800,000 and it is the oldest conservatory in the
1:04:48
United States. By the time it was completed and opened in 1866, one year after the official end of the American
1:04:54
Civil War, it was dedicated by George Peabody himself and included a music academy, library, and art gallery.
1:05:02
George Peabody was also called the father of modern philanthropy. That entrance at the east wing of the George
1:05:08
Peabody Library sure looks proportionally like it's made for much bigger people than we are today. So,
1:05:14
exactly how do you go about hiding giants and their advanced civilization? I think the American Civil War was one
1:05:20
of many ways to do this and that it was not what we've been told about it. The revered and seemingly prolific Frederick
1:05:26
Law Olmstead started out his career as a journalist. Among other things, during the pre-Ivil War time period, Olmstead
1:05:33
was commissioned by the New York Daily Times to start an extensive research journey in the American South and Texas
1:05:40
between 1852 and 1857. He published three books from this time into one book
1:05:45
called Journeys and Explorations in the Cotton Kingdom in 1861 during the first six months of the American Civil War at
1:05:52
the suggestion of his English publisher. All of these books by Frederick Law Olmstead raise red flags for me as I've
1:05:58
come to believe from my research that publications like these are indicative of some kind of setting the stage in
1:06:05
seeding the new historical narrative into our consciousness by those responsible for the hijack of the
1:06:10
original positive civilization that built all of Earth's infrastructure. Frederick Lawmstead was also the first
1:06:16
executive secretary of the United States Sanitary Commission as well as an organizer of the Union League. First,
1:06:23
the United States Sanitary Commission. What we are told about the United States Sanitary Commission is that it organized
1:06:29
sanitary fairs during the American Civil War as a fundraiser for the many needs of Union soldiers, including health.
1:06:36
Sanitary fairs had everything, including majestic temporary buildings said to have been built for the fairs to be torn
1:06:42
down after. And while not as elaborate as the big expositions, such as in Chicago, they were still something in
1:06:50
and of themselves. Frederick Law Olmstead was on the standing committee for the United States
1:06:55
sanitary commission that was formed in New York with its main members throughout the civil war consisting of
1:07:00
Henry Whitney Bellows, George Templeton Strong and surgeons Dr. William H. Vanburn, Dr. Cornelius R. Agnu and Dr.
1:07:08
Walcott Gibbs. Did the US Sanitary Commission and its volunteers really have the wherewithal
1:07:15
to both construct the buildings for and pull off these extraordinarily lavish and festive undertakings against the
1:07:21
backdrop of national war and suffering? Or was it a private front comprised of
1:07:26
the very same people who organized and were prominent members of the private membership clubs of the day like the
1:07:33
Union League and the Century Association? We are told the Union League was a private social club for
1:07:38
wealthy men that opened in New York City in 1863 where pro- Union men could come
1:07:43
together to cultivate a profound national devotion and strengthen a love and respect for the Union. It became the
1:07:50
most exclusive men's club in Manhattan and perhaps in the nation. This location
1:07:55
for the Union League Club was said to have been built on the northeast corner of Fifth Avenue and 39th Street between
1:08:01
1879 and 1881. Along with Frederick Lawmstead, organizers of the Union
1:08:06
League club were Henry Whitney Bellows, George Templeton Strong, and Walcott Gibbs, same names as the United States
1:08:13
Sanitary Commission. Henry Whitney Bellowos was also involved in the organizing of the Century Association in
1:08:20
New York City. Founded in 1847 and incorporated in 1857, the Century
1:08:25
Association was a private social arts and dining club and named after the first 100 people proposed as members.
1:08:32
The Century Association building at 42 East 15th Street was in use by the
1:08:37
association starting in 1857 and which served as one of the headquarters of the United States Sanitary Commission.
1:08:45
Members of the Century Association have included artists and writers like poet and journalist William Colin Bryant,
1:08:51
landscape painter Frederick Edwin Church, landscape painter Winslow Homer, and best known for stained glass work
1:08:59
Lewis Comfort Tiffany. Architect members have included landscape architects Calberttv and Frederick Law Olmstead,
1:09:06
Bozart's architects Carrera and Hastings as well as York and Sawer and architects
1:09:12
McKim me and White who were said to have defined the ideals of the American Renaissance in end of the century New
1:09:18
York. Other members were said to have included eight US presidents, 10 US Supreme Court justices, 43 members of
1:09:25
the presidential cabinet, 29 Nobel Prize laurates, members of the Rockefeller, Vanderbilt, Roosevelt and Astro
1:09:32
families, as well as financeier JP Morgan and Morse code inventor Samuel P. Morse. Ever hear the George Carlin
1:09:39
quote, it's one big club and you ain't in it, and wonder where that idea might have come from? Seems like all of these
1:09:46
private clubs we are seeing in this video were private and exclusive for a reason and that was to secretly plan
1:09:51
their activities and next moose that no one is supposed to know about. The so-called elites have continued doing
1:09:57
the same thing to this day in their secretive meetings to plan their agendas for what they want the future to look
1:10:03
like for humanity in the world. And what they want doesn't look good for us. The United States sanitary commission and
1:10:09
the sanitary affairs and the exclusive private clubs associated with the very same people leads to the larger question
1:10:15
of what was really going on during the American Civil War. Historically described as a civil war between
1:10:21
northern states or union and the southern states or confederacy over the status of slavery and its expansion into
1:10:28
newly acquired land after the Mexicanamean war. We are told there were three theaters of war during years of
1:10:35
the American Civil War between 1861 and 1865. Eastern, Western, and Trans
1:10:41
Mississippi. I have often thought that theater, defined as a collaborative form of performing art that uses live
1:10:47
performers, usually actors or actresses, to present the experience of a real or imagined event before a live audience in
1:10:54
a specific place, like a stage, is a thought-provoking word choice for an area or place in which important
1:11:00
military events occur or are progressing. I have come to view the American Civil War as freemasonic
1:11:07
theater which I think applies to all the wars and armed conflicts of our modern era.
1:11:14
Orphan trains started in 1854 under the opaces of Frederick Lolstead's good
1:11:19
friend Charles Luring Brace and the Children's Aid Society which Brace established in 1853. A new experimental
1:11:26
program of his called placing out became known to us as orphan trains. And for the next 75 years, over 200,000 children
1:11:34
were sent across the continent to uncertain destinations and uncertain futures with strangers. A movement going
1:11:41
in this direction was widely supported by wealthy New York families like Charlotte Augusta Gibbs, the wife of
1:11:48
John Jacob Aster III, grandson of John Jacob Aster and who was the wealthiest
1:11:53
Aster family member of his generation. Right around the same time as the beginning of the orphan train movement
1:11:59
and the alleged completion of the horseshoe curve by the Pennsylvania Railroad near Altuna, both taking place
1:12:04
in 1854. We are told that the federal government operated a land grant system
1:12:09
between 1855 and 1871 where new railway companies and what we are told was the
1:12:15
uninhabited west were given millions of acres they could sell or pledge to bond holders.
1:12:21
The establishment of a land grant system at this time is a good place to insert once again the story of the Ames
1:12:27
brothers of eastern Massachusetts co-owners of the Ames shovel shop nationally known for providing the
1:12:32
shovels for the Union Pacific Railroad which we are told opened the West. It was said to have been the world's
1:12:38
largest supplier of shovels in the 19th century. Why were shovels so important to the opening of the West and the
1:12:44
expansion of infrastructure? What if the tracks were already there and just needed to be dug out? Not only
1:12:52
that, one brother, Oliver Ames Jr., was the president of the Union Pacific Railroad from when it met the Central
1:12:58
Pacific Railroad in Utah for the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in North America. The other
1:13:04
brother, Oaks Ames, was a member of the US Congress House of Representatives from Massachusetts second district from
1:13:11
1863 to 1873. He was credited by many as being the most important influence in
1:13:17
building the Union Pacific portion of the first transcontinental railroad. Oaks Ames was also noteworthy for his
1:13:23
involvement in the Credit Mobile scandal of 1867 regarding the improper sale of
1:13:29
stock of the railroads construction company. He was formally censured by Congress in 1873 for this involvement
1:13:35
and he died that same year. 10 years later he was posthumously exonerated by the Massachusetts state legislature on
1:13:42
May 10th of 1883. The cities of Ames Iowa and Ames Nebraska are both said to
1:13:48
be named for Oaks Ames and were stopped on the Union Pacific Railroad. This is the Ames monument near Laram in Wyoming.
1:13:55
This large pyramid was said to have also been designed by Henry Hobson Richardson and built between 1880 and 1882. It was
1:14:03
dedicated to the Ames brothers for their role in financing the Union Pacific Railroad.
1:14:09
The new history of the robber barons and the reset seems to have gotten its start in Pennsylvania where there were a lot
1:14:15
of first happening in our historical narrative. The nickname of Pennsylvania is the Keystone State and in its
1:14:21
anecdotal history was said to have come from its location in the Keystone of the Arch depicted here in the center of the
1:14:28
original 13 colonies. But another reason comes to mind in the definition of keystone in its figurative sense as
1:14:35
opposed to its literal meaning as the stone in the middle of the arch which holds up the others. The idea of that
1:14:41
which holds together other parts locking together the whole structure. Pennsylvania certainly seems to have
1:14:47
played an instrumental role in doing just that in our historical narrative. Additionally, the story of the Masonic
1:14:54
keystone is well worth looking at, which has the letters HTWSTKS
1:14:59
engraved on it, said to mean Hyram, the widow's son, sent to King Solomon, referring to Hyram Abif. Hyram Abif is a
1:15:07
main character in an allegory presented to all thirdderee Freemasonry candidates as the main architect of Solomon's
1:15:13
temple. Hyram Abby was murdered inside the temple with a mason's tool by three fellow craftmasons from the workforce or
1:15:20
ruffians after he wouldn't give them his master mason secrets which were lost with his death. I found an article on
1:15:28
the masonicworld.com website a while back when I was looking for information on Hyram Abiff. In it, the writer talks
1:15:35
about operative masonry and the beginning of speculative masonry in 1717
1:15:40
with the founding of the premier Grand Lodge of England. The writer indicates in the article that while some believed
1:15:46
that operative masons were also in possession of the tragic story of Hyramab, there was no mention of Hyramab
1:15:53
in the existing records of operative masonry from before that time. That there was no third or mastermason degree
1:15:59
as a right until the premier grand lodge was established in 1717 and that it was
1:16:04
likely that the legend of Hyram was introduced at the time Freemasonry became a speculative organization.
1:16:18
To me, this provides supporting evidence that the ritual of the recital of the death of Hyramabith is actually an
1:16:24
allegory for what happened to the Moors themselves and their advanced civilization by the unworthy craftsmen
1:16:30
that has been enshrined in one of their main initiation rights. It is my understanding that only those initiated
1:16:36
into the highest degree of Western Freemasonry know directly about the Moors. And it is no secret within modern
1:16:43
Freemasonry that it is speculative, meaning based on conjecture rather than knowledge as opposed to operative,
1:16:50
meaning those who actually worked with stone. The new world's controllers stole the identity and legacy of the operative
1:16:56
masons and took us from the Moorish divine movement of the world from antiquity with the eye on top of the
1:17:02
pyramid signifying our pineal gland and our connection to the creator to it symbolizing big brother and the control
1:17:09
of the 13 bloodline families. There's a lot more I could add to our
1:17:14
lost history, but this gives you some idea of what has taken place here and not for our benefit.
