Shocking Secrets of Elvis Presley's Lost Twin Burial Spot. Discover the haunting mystery of Jesse Garon Presley, Elvis Presley's stillborn twin brother, lost for 90 years in Tupelo, Mississippi. In this emotional investigation, we use ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to scan Priceville Cemetery – the family plot where Vernon Presley buried Jesse in a shoebox on that freezing January 8, 1935. Vernon forgot the exact spot over time, and rumors point to spots like St. Marks Cemetery or even Graceland. But our scan reveals a shocking twist: A small, shoebox-sized anomaly that could finally mark Jesse's grave – just not where everyone thought. Note: While official records spell his name "Jesse Garon," the symbolic memorial marker at Graceland uses "Jessie" to avoid confusion with Elvis's.
Join me as we explore the emotional bond that haunted Elvis his whole life, sift through unconfirmed classmate claims, and weigh the evidence ethically, without disturbing the site. Is this closure for the King of Rock 'n' Roll's forgotten twin? Or does the mystery endure? Watch to see the GPR results and decide for yourself.

Behind the scenes of this investigation: The Jesse Garon Presley story began as a passionate collaboration between Heath Jones and his longtime girlfriend, history researcher - genealogist, Kelly Underwood, blending their shared love for uncovering forgotten truths. Tragically, the project paused when Kelly was diagnosed with ALS, but in her final weeks, she inspired Heath with detailed instructions to carry on their work—finishing a mass Civil War grave investigation they started together using GPR, and pursuing the Presley site to honor her vision. The weekend of the Civil War mass grave marker dedication, which History Seekers helped locate, became a turning point; Heath resolved to press forward with the lost Presley grave, turning grief into purpose. Our team reached out to Graceland for guidance and waiting on reply at the time of posting, History Seekers remains committed to ethical exploration, assisting the Presley family if desired, and following any new leads—proving that Kelly's legacy of curiosity and resilience continues to light the way for discoveries that connect us all to history's heart. We understand the staff at Graceland likely get a lot unverifiable (crazy) claims.
