This is the most detailed information I have ever found on the Wade family. I have visited the house where Jennie was killed several times over the years, but have always walked away feeling I found only a few facts leading up to that fateful day. Thank you for the incredible history relating to the Wade family.
Very nice, thank you. I’ve known the basic story of Jennie and all, have visited her sister’s house a couple times too. But you really fleshed out much more about her life and background. I’ll always find it so tragic that she never learned her sweetheart’s fate, nor he, hers. I actually stayed in that Farnsworth House once, I remember they told us how the sniper used the attic as his perch.
This is a wonderful video. I always wanted to know more about Jennie Wade and her family. It is great that all the houses were visited - I saw the three houses last visit.
Jennie Wade was a Patriot and should be remembered , when most were hiding in fear and rightfully so, Jennie wasn’t 🤗🇺🇸💕🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. Enjoyed this thank you so much
Great information, Tim. For more about this story, please read Jennie Wade of Gettysburg: The Complete Story of the Only Civilian Killed During the Battle of Gettysburg by Cindy L. Small.
Thanks for putting this together. I am not in proximity to visit these places for myself so this is the next best thing. About the closing segment, not sure if I would say that she "...gave her life".., more like it was taken from her.
My Grandmother ADA WETZEL KEEFER purchased and rented out a boarding house and small retail shop directly across Baltimore Street where the road takes a very sharp turn....in 1958 after my Grandfather Jerre Keefer died of a heart attack (the family homestead was a farm in Mummasburg).... Many Wonderful memories of the 'Jennie Wade House' and heartfelt story of her shortened life and that of her love Mr Skelly,etc,etc.... Obviously my lifelong passion for HISTORY can be traced to growing up on Baltimore Street... Unfortunately that home was just recently destroyed in a huge fire caused in a fatal automobile accident......GOD BLESS✝️🛐🇺🇸❤
This is just a tragic, horrible story what happened to that property. Some man was driving 3 times the speed limit there and lost control and crashed his car into that building and it blew up, and caused that terrible fire. Just sad, and so unnecessary.
@@brianshawkey2910 Totally appreciate your kind sympathy....will pass along to my Keefer family you kind sentiments.. Stay cool during this summer 2021 heatwave....
This is where Jenny was killed but that is not Jenny wades home she was visiting her sister to help out as her sister just had a baby. Ms. Wade lived closer to town
Great video. I make RUclips videos as well. Some history on my channel. I was just in Virginia. So much history. I will come back. You have a great insightful video. Thanks for sharing
You think when you're in GBurg that it mostly looks the same as it does today during the battle. I didn't even think it would look the way out does in the thumbnail Pic.... it was lone standing

Tim's attention to detail is amazing. Learned more about Jennie in these 20 minutes than I knew in 20 years. Great presentation.
Who the hell is Jennie?
I thought she was the lecturer.
I'm so excited to see Tim again! I saw him speak on The History Underground's channel and I enjoy the way he tells the stories. Well done!
American Battlefield Trust is his home! Definitely check him out there.
JD is amazing, isnt he?
They also erected A Beautiful statue where Jenny Wade is buried I've been to Gettysburg twice and look forward to going back someday
I live in Pennsylvania and I have been to Gettysburg numerous times throughout the 1980's , Thank You for Your awesome Video

Had heard of Jenny, but not the details in this video. Great job.👍 Poor girl to die so young. Rip Jenny.
Very well done, Tim! Thanks for the details of the story. Your professionalism and research are appreciated.
He is a big part of the American Battlefield Trust. He knows almost all it seems

Great work, as always. What is access like in Gettysburg, the site, Eisenhower Farm, visitors center, etc.? With numbers coming down, can we visit?
This video was absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for your research and work!

Looked like orbs in that attic. All so sad but love your channel☮️🇺🇸🦋
I scrolled this far hoping I would see a comment about orbs I seen them to
Did I just see orbs at the Sweeney house attic 18:02-18:59?
More dust than Ghostbusters
Ya me too
Yes! We see it also!
Yes it certainly looks like orbs. Good catch Dinah!
Who ever approved the building of the large hotel next to the Jenny Wade made a terrible decision!
Go to the American Battlefield Trust and check out what they have recovered. It is amazing what we did to the land after lol.
@@pamelaoliver8442 Thank you for the information!
Good work 👍
Wow. I've toured Eastern State. Don't remember hearing about him. Would be a good snippet if they don't have it already.
Orbs!! We see orbs on the video in the attic!

Did anyone see the 2 orbs in Sweeney’s attic?
Yes several times
