  The small casket looking memorial is called an Ossuary.<br>After the body had decayed, the skeletal remains would be put in a small box to make space for new burials.

  I think it&apos;s heart breaking when dogs stay by their masters grave. Very sad

  I know it was probably just your exhaled breath that was swirling around in that one crypt, but, dang! What a special effect!

  The Dowager Countess de Lusi was married to the Prussian Envoy to the Greek Court, from what I found, she may have been Irish born. Her life is portrayed on Downton Abbey? My neighbor had an Irish wolfhound that I loved to care for when she was out of town. His name was Finnegan and he could look out a 6&apos; window in a door. &nbsp;I loved Fin and that&apos;s why I have always had big dogs.

  I was born at the William Harvey hospital in Kent. The story of the dog is so sad. I love animals and the thought of him being so loyal and lost without his owner he allowed himself to perish just breaks me hart. Poor doggo 😢🐕‍🦺

  Thank you so much for posting these videos. I am fascinated by old graveyards, especially from the Victorian and Edwardian eras. It is a family trait from my mother&apos;s side; I walk around and read the tombstones if they are still legible. I wonder about the deceased. What did they look like? What was their personality like? Their likes and dislikes, jobs, hobbies they enjoyed, and the cause of death, especially if the decedent was a child or a young person. Sometimes I feel guilty when I read their headstones, for I am the modern beneficiary of modern medicine, electric powered appliances, indoor plumbing, computers, satellite communications, improved nutrition, etc., which these people did not have during their lifetimes. Sometimes I wonder if their spirits watch us, and they wonder who we are. Anyway, keep up the good work. The past fascinates me, too. &nbsp;:virtualhug:🙂👍
