LBG Roy Frampton joins Matt, Bob and Tim from near the Howard Statue on East Cemetery Hill. While this Ask A Gettysburg Guide is about the National Cemetery, we didn't think four people on lawn chairs talking into microphones would look appropriate in the cemetery itself. So, we went across the street. In this episode, we cover topics such as: -USCT graves -the cemetery during the battle and the monuments within it -A confederate mass grave in the Annex? -Revelry in the town the night before the Dedication -Confederate soldiers buried among the Union dead -boxes containing the personal effects taken from the "Unknown" soldiers -The Bivouac of the Dead matching up with the melody of Gilligan's Island -methods used to identify the dead -families recovering their buried soldiers and which unit has the most soldiers buried in its section.

SARAH BROADHEAD: "To-day we heard that the Rebels were crossing the river in heavy force, and advancing on to this State." In the 1730s and 40s, Scots-Irish and German settlers began laying roots in what was then known as the Marsh Creek settlement. Eventually, Samuel Gettys opened a tavern on the Marsh Creek Road, the major east-west road in the area. In 1761, he was fined for running a tavern without a license. In 1769, the Baltimore-Shippensburg road was laid out and an intersection was created at the tavern. Twenty five years later, in 1786, his son James would lay out 210 lots, including a town square, referred to as "The Diamond", around the tavern. This new town would be known as Gettysburg. In 1800, Gettysburg became the county seat of the newly formed Adams county, named for then-president John Adams. The 1860 census shows that Gettysburg's population numbered around 2400 and was primarily made up of German, Scots-Irish and free blacks. Prior to the war, the people of Gettysburg engaged in a diverse economy, the primary industry in town being carriage making which attracted related tradesmen such as wheelwrights, trim and canvas shops and silversmiths. Many of Gettysburg's carriages were purchased by people south of the Mason-Dixon line, some ten miles south of Gettysburg. As the war loomed, the industry in Gettysburg began to tighten. But by 1863, the war had all but eliminated the carriage industry,. Gettysburg's port for goods and services was Baltimore, which was a city of divided loyalties and political unrest These two factors disrupted the town's economy. The overwhelmingly Christian population of the town worshipped in eight congregations and seven churches. As the center of Adams County's legal business, Gettysburg was home to several lawyers. Education was well covered in Gettysburg. A number of primary and secondary schools, private schools including Carrie Sheads's on the Chambersburg Pike and Rebecca Eyster's on the corner of High Street and Washington, Pennsylvania College, established in 1832, and the Lutheran Theological Seminary educated the youth from near and far. To support the large amount of farms in the surrounding townships, various merchants kept shop there. Some people, such as Mary McAllister, made money by reselling cured meats she had obtained from the farmers of the area to her fellow Gettysburgians. Others owned butcher shops, like James Pierce who lived on the southwest corner of Baltimore and Breckinridge Streets; a candy store, like Philip "Petey" Winter's on the first block of Chambersburg Street; a photography studio like Charles and Isaac Tyson had on York Street. Dry goods, general merchandise and grocers also made Gettysburg hum with activity. James Fahenstock and two of his brothers owned the largest General store in town on the corner of Baltimore Street and Middle Street. In 1860, the census listed dozens of people whose occupation was "shoemaker" or cobbler. Yet, contrary to legend, there was no shoe factory or warehouse full of shoes in Gettysburg in 1863. Tanneries, ironworks, brickyards, blacksmiths, hotels, inns and taverns rounded out the more common businesses found in town. Local curmudgeon and former town constable, John Burns, had a few odd jobs. One of those jobs was as a cobbler at the boot and shoe shop of town council president David Kendlehart. Burns, a veteran of the War of 1812, was not known to be a friendly neighbor with a kind word to offer. Among his other jobs, John Burns pumped water for the Gettysburg waterworks. Gettysburg had the latest technological advances in communications, media, gas lighting and transportation. In 1858, the railroad had come to town and, by 1863, Joseph Broadhead was an Express Messenger, on the Hanover Junction, Hanover and Gettysburg Railroad. This railroad made the economy of Gettysburg boom when it was built and, in 1863, the line was in the process of being continued westward out of town. By July 1, the progress made on this extension would be forever immortalized as "The Railroad Cut." There were two telegraph offices in town: one at the railroad station and the other in the back of the home of John Scott on Chambersburg Street. Gettysburg had three newspapers. The Star and Banner, edited by John T. McIlhenney [mac uhl henny] and the Adams Sentinel edited by David Buehler, both had a Republican bias. The Compiler, had a Democrat bias and was edited by Henry J Stahle [staylee]. Republicans were very pro-Union while the Democrats took a softer stance on the idea of Southern secession. Neither side was keen about the idea of equality for blacks, ironically evidenced by the fact that when, years prior to the war, free blacks attempted to join the local white anti-slavery societies and were denied entry. And, so, those who were anti-slavery and black formed the Slave's Refuge Society. SLAVE'S REFUGE SOCIETY: "we feel it our indispensable duty to assist such of our brethren as shall come among us for the purp

Codie Eash was supposed to deliver a lecture on January 18 as part of the 2020 Winter Lecture Series that the Park Service puts on. But it was snowed out. So they changed it to March 28...and it was Wuhaned out. We reached out to Codie and offered him a platform to talk about his lecture. Keep an eye on our free feed because Codie is going to record the lecture in full for us. I LOVED doing this interview. We recorded at the Point of Woods out in front of the Virginia Memorial. It was a gorgeous day. Then, as soon as we sat down to record, the clouds rolled in and it got cold. Gotta love March. Anyway, that didn't take away from how interesting the topic is and what a great presenter Codie is. I'm sure you're going to enjoy this. I hope you're all well as can be and no one close to you has been adversely affected by the virus. Become a Patron to hear the full interview and help us keep doing what we're doing for you.

The 1st Minnesota was the only Minnesota regiment here at Gettysburg. Its strength varies between 260 and 280 men. They took aroun 80% casualties after facing four times their number.

A few months ago, Matt's friend and silent partner in Addressing Gettysburg, Peter Bonfanti, had an idea. The idea was to record an interview of Matt about the making of Addressing Gettysburg. So, Pete came down from New Jersey and sat down in the studio with Bob and Matt to conduct a three-part interview. In light of production being shut down during the coronavirus hysteria, and lacking sufficient toilet paper supplies (thanks, Chicken Littles out there), we figure this is the time to release part 1 of this interview. Free content isn't without cost. Becoming a Patron at www.Patreon.com/addressinggettysburg helps at least offset the costs of production. Thanks to all of our existing Patrons and to you for considering becoming one.

Has Scott solved a mystery?

When a Civil War substitute broker told business associates that "Men is cheep here to Day," he exposed an unsettling contradiction at the heart of the Union's war effort. Despite Northerners' devotion to the principles of free labor, the war produced rampant speculation and coercive labor arrangements that many Americans labeled fraudulent. Debates about this contradiction focused on employment agencies called "intelligence offices," institutions of dubious character that nevertheless served the military and domestic necessities of the Union army and Northern households. Northerners condemned labor agents for pocketing fees above and beyond contracts for wages between employers and employees. Yet the transactions these middlemen brokered with vulnerable Irish immigrants, Union soldiers and veterans, former slaves, and Confederate deserters defined the limits of independence in the wage labor economy and clarified who could prosper in it. Men Is Cheap shows that in the process of winning the war, Northerners were forced to grapple with the frauds of free labor. Labor brokers, by helping to staff the Union military and Yankee households, did indispensable work that helped the Northern state and Northern employers emerge victorious. They also gave rise to an economic and political system that enriched the managerial class at the expense of laborers--a reality that resonates to this day. "Men Is Cheap" is published by UNC Press and can be purchased here Brian P. Luskey is associate professor of history at West Virginia University and author of On the Make: Clerks and the Quest for Capital in Nineteenth-Century America.
