On the outskirts of Poway, California, up on a knoll over looking the valley, is an old pioneer cemetery dating back to the late 1800s. The small cemetery only has five occupants, all from the same family, but the cemetery isn't the family's only legacy on the land.
Just down the valley there is the ruins of the family's home. Sitting near a creek with epic views of the valley below, the family called their home "Longview." Built in the 1880s, legend has it that the home was burned down by bank robbers on the run in 1908.
In this video we head up into the hills to locate the cemetery and find the ruins of Longview while stopping to check out another set of ruins along the way.
The cemetery is located at 32.956848, -117.003115
