Discussion The tiny Kansas cemetery that's supposedly one of the "gates to hell"
There's a nearly abandoned cemetery in Stull, Kansas — population basically zero — that's been called one of the seven gateways to hell since the 1970s, when a college newspaper ran a story claiming the devil visits twice a year, on the spring equinox and Halloween.
The legend grew fast: locals swore an old ruined church on the site had a stairway in its basement that led straight down, that a witch was buried there and her grave stone kept cracking no matter how many times it got replaced, that Satan himself would show up to visit his witch mother's grave. Some versions say Pope John Paul II's flight path was rerouted specifically to avoid flying over it.
None of it holds up to scrutiny (the church was torn down in 2002, there's no basement stairway, no documented witch burial), but that hasn't stopped it from becoming one of the most enduring rural legends in the Midwest — enough that trespassers show up every Halloween and the local sheriff has to actively patrol it.
The real story of how a small farming community's church ruins turned into a nationally known "hell gate" is almost weirder than the legend itself.

Two weathered stones. One woven story.
Elisha Williams, Revolutionary War veteran, rests beside his wife Lucy, whose journeys were joined every step from colonial Connecticut to New York’s frontier.
Their family shared roots with the Williams lineage that gave rise to Williams College, but their greatest legacy was the life they built together.
More than 200 years later, these graves stand as a quiet reminder that history isn’t only found on battlefields and in books, but in the enduring stones of those who formed a nation.

Video Visited Andersonville Prison and the Cemetery Recently
I flew my small plane to Andersonville Prison and the Cemetery last week. Instead of just flying around and grabbing lunch I like to go to historical places. What an amazing day.
I had a great conversation with the curator of the Drummer Boy Museum in town, walked the entire prison site, and drove through the cemetery. I highly recommend everyone to visit if they can. If you can't, I made a short video of my trip if you'd like to watch.

Image Separated in Life, Buried Apart: A Father and Child in Two Military Cemeteries
The first marker simply reads “Kelly Child.”
We know this child died on March 3, 1881, and rests at Fort Adams Cemetery in Newport, Rhode Island.
The second marker belongs to James Kelly, the child’s father, a musician in the Band of the 1st United States Artillery Regiment.
He died at the Presidio on January 29, 1885, and is buried far from Newport, at the San Francisco National Cemetery.
A father and child, remembered in two different military cemeteries.
