Gettysburg is a remarkable experience. The moment you step onto those fields and on those streets in town, you feel a heaviness. Something that cannot be explained. So many thousands of souls, lost.
was the same when i went to the somme, vimy ridge, etc back in the early 80's. To this day i can still feel the sense of despair that lingered in the air
I enjoy walks in cemeteries! Fantastic episode. I read that not only was Elizabeth pregnant, but also caring for her ailing father. Thank you for bringing to light what the town folk and local farmers dealt with during the battle and months afterward. There were no programs offered to help rebuild or replace lost crops or livestock. So intriguing to read about and immerse ones thoughts to learn more. Thank you young man. Enjoying this so very much! Blessings to you and your family.
As I said before JD, you've really stepped it up a notch and out did yourself with this series. You're a phenomenal teacher and should be extremely proud of this work. Awesome job buddy. I remember the cemeteries in Iraq (2003) were not sacred ground, and some were destroyed due to fighting. Along with hospitals and other places that were supposed to be protected- our enemy did not abide by the ROE we were "supposed" to follow. This reminded me of that. But there will never be monuments put up over there to honor both sides.
Love that you tell these little bits of history. That otherwise would not learn in a classroom. American school children should watch your videos. They will learn a lot and understand the civil war. I’m still learning from you and I have been to Gettysburg. I definitely going to go back.
Wow JD. God bless that lady who buried the dead. She is just one of many women and men who were civilians who were heroic. People can do amazing things that they never thought they could.
In the many times I’ve been to Gettysburg, I’ve never walked through the city cemetery and tried finding these! Thanks for showing us that there was nothing left untouched by this battle!
I have seen many documentaries, and movies have been made about Gettysburg, but your videos pull the mind into untold, or parts skirted around. We forget about the civilians who were fighting to stay alive themselves, caught in the middle of something so horrific. We forget about the women left to take care of families homes, and farms. These women did there own work, and a mans work, also making decisions, and always the worry if their man was coming home alive.
It is absolutely amazing seeing the untold locations that often get overlooked by the tourists. It's these stories that intrigue me the most. I never considered the damage that the cemetery took, the woman's memorial and her story, and the Huber story. I never knew about the murder of Francis Scott Key's son. As a history buff and a Civil War reenactor, I always look forward to your videos, no matter the subject matter. Well done, as always!
Living only about an hour from Gettysburg and going there so many times I can not even count, one tends to forget about Elizabeth. Thanks for bringing her to light again. Unreal what she done by hand! As usual another terrific video. Be interesting to know if I am related to found of camp Douglas. I am a distant relation to Col Henry Douglas well known from antietam. My great grandmother use to make mention of him when she was alive.
I really enjoy when you dig a little deeper into the lives of others during the time of war the Civil War in fact. It brings these people to life. To think of Elizabeth with shovel in hand , carry a child within her n digging all the graves of soldiers. She was an amazing woman n she should be honored. ♥️😊👍👍 PS. Have happy 4th n be safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you so much for the care and respect that you put into your videos. I am sure that this care and respect is a source of healing and relief. Again, thank you and God Bless you, Sir!
Always learn so much from your videos. War is terrible for everyone not just the military. Thanks for bringing the stories to light & helping those lives not be forgotten. 👍
JD I’m really loving this series! Your doing an excellent job highlighting all the little unknowns and that’s what makes your series so enjoyable and appealing! I just wish they were longer because I can’t wait until the next episodes is posted! Lol! Keep up the great work and thank you for all the hard work! Take care now, Frank from Philadelphia, PA.
The fence you mentioned was just in the news this week. Bad storms we had go through one of the trees came down on it in the cometary while the state was under tornado watches. Mentioned tree coming down on the Gettysburg park page on Facebook but one of the Facebook pages shows once they got the tree off that the fence was twisted badly but said it was able to be repaired.
Imagine disliking this video and basically any awesome videos this guy makes, Like how can anyone dislike this? It's entertaining and educational. It's also presented really well. You can tell this guy really does his research so he gets all his facts right.
Wow. A pregnant woman burying perhaps many mangled soldiers in the July heat. I don't think they make people like this anymore. Remind me to never feel sorry for myself.
JD.. as always another great video. Keep up the great work. Only found your channel about a month or so ago so I am enjoying the binge catching up.... You still need to get up to Michigan (Detroit area) ..lots of good history here.
@@TheHistoryUnderground always do. We have a history nerd roundtable on Facebook so I share and post your stuff there too. Glad to show you around if you make it up this way. Stay safe.
Wow,, jd. ,, I cought this video about one half hour after it went up. 290 likes and. 0 dislikes. I don't see how any American. Could dislike anything you put out. Thank you Frank from montana...
Thank You, you are doing a spectacular job on this series. Besides the amazing videos, you are teaching me things I did not know about Gettysburg. I need to get back. Thanks again. -TC
Thanks for giving us a glimpse of how the war affected the townspeople of Gettysburg. We read about the battles but never about the civilians. This series has been so fantastic! I’ve learned a lot. You did a great job!
I found your channel because of your notable graves in Arlington video, and now I absolutely love your channel! Truly a cinematic experience while still remaining approachable and informative.
I never did catch your name, but your presentations are professional, peaceful and enjoyable. Much appreciate your vlogs. I love history. Thank you Jan Collins 💝
My Great Great Grandfather was in C0.A 52nd North Carolina infantry and was to attack at what was to be called "The Bloody Angle". He was wounded and captured July 3 and spent over a year in Union prison camps before being traded. I did not know much about him until later in my life (family secrets?) as family has long been in Indiana. appreciate your great look into this battle. Doug
Great series and you cover so much so well. As I'm sure you know, Lincoln gave his Gettysburg address not too far from Jenny Wades grave at Evergreen. I may have been there while you were there. I go there quite often in the Spring time when there are no leaves on the trees so I can see much further distances on the battlefield. Thanks again for the great videos.
Thank you JD for these wonderful segments of history at Gettysburg. I love the history of the War Between the States and you are doing a fantastic job.
Hey Man. My wife and I just went to Kill Devil Hills, to see the Wright Brothers Memorial. We had a great time. There they actually have a replica of the Kitty Hawk airplane that the Wright Brothers flew back then. I know you probably went and made the video. But just wanted to through that in here. Thanks for the complete tour of gettysburg.
Great job JD. Love every episode you do. I was born in Pennsylvania and grew up visiting all the famous War sites in the state. I know you don't focus much on the revolutionary War, but doing an episode on Valley Forge might be interesting to many of your viewers.
🇺🇸👍🏼. My wife and I have been there twice. It is truly a magical place. Just driving up to that area makes your heart speed up and emotions start coming up. Hard to describe. A beautiful area but hauntingly eerie.
Things to America Battlefield Trust I have found your channel. I really enjoying your channel. I'm retired School Principal doing my bucket list since retiring been to all Major Civil War Battlefields Gettysburg to New Orleans Working on Revolutionary War now covid slowed me down last year.
Slight emendation. First successful use of temporary insanity. Or so I’ve been corrected. -also. 😉. Gettysburg = stories for days. Son just graduated from the college. Going to miss our regular visits! It’s such a special place. Well done. Well done indeed! Edit: you didn’t mention directly ? The fence was originally from Lafayette Park in DC. Hence sickles. Yes? Thanks 🙏🏼
I am so glad I found your content....great work. Thanks so much for making these. I have been watching your RUclips videos for the last couple of days and I love seeing and learning all this!
Dude I love it I can’t believe I haven’t seen any of your vids before I just got done watching the Andersonville vid I live in Georgia and love going to Andersonville
On today's date in 1863 ..... The forces of Jubal Early March into and occupy my hometown of York, pa. It's believed that his stay here kept his forces from getting to Gettysburg in a timely manner
I was in there right after touring the Jennie Wade house to visit her grave. I didn't know about the battle damage, so didn't look for it at the time. Sickles defense wasn't actually the first use of temporary insanity, it was just the first popular use. Look up the William Waightstill Avery trial in 1851, eight or so years earlier. Avery was brought to trial for murder but was acquitted on the grounds of extreme provocation leading to temporary insanity. Sorry, but you created this monster 😆.
That’s a really neat video. Was there but didn’t even think to look for battle damage. With all these videos my return trip will have to be a week long.
Good job as always. Just a note of reference the Adams County Historical Trust has some fascinating videos about the Town and battlefield. I highly recommend their website.
I love the videos that you include the notable women. As a woman it is hard to identify with what the men went through, although they have my utmost respect. I can only imagine.
I am new to the channel. Just out of curiosity, what made you decide to start your series. I love history. I love hearing the personal stories of people in these events. Thanks for sharing !!
@@TheHistoryUnderground very cool 😎 My middle daughter had a history/govt teacher she was very inspired by. They went to Truman's birth home I believe. And the 2016 inauguration. It was a cool experience for them anyway. We both love history, my husband as well. So from all of us to you, THANK YOU !!
@@TheHistoryUnderground Also, we live in NW Arkansas. We have the Battle at Prairie Grove, the battle at Pea Ridge and some smaller squirmishes. My girls paternal grandmother lives in a Civil War Era home. Beautiful. She swears its haunted. I never had any personal experiences 🤷🏻♀️
My two great great uncles, members of the 57th Pa. Vol. Inf., Sickles's Third Corp, were engaged at the Peach Orchard and Sherfy farm along the Emmitsburg Rd. One survived the battle and the other was taken prisoner among the Sherfy buildings and carted off to Richmond where he died, it is believed, in Castle Thunder.
Thanks for another great video. I've been in Evergreen Cemetery several times. One of my favorite places to visit is the grave of "Gettysburg" Eddie Plank, Hall of fames pitcher. Keep up the great work.
These videos are so refreshing!!! Thanks!! Sure wish you had more series like this, I just love it!! Love your other videos as well, I just love Civil War history, don't know why. No offense.
Will you be doing the Battle of Stones River Tennessee? My great-great grandfather Jean Allard Jeancon was there as a surgeon for the 32nd Indiana Volunteer Infantry. Also at the battle at Rowlett’s Station Kentucky (aka known as the battle of Woodsonville or Green River). Unfortunately there isn’t much to see at Rowlett’s Station and the battle field is on private property.

Gettysburg is a remarkable experience. The moment you step onto those fields and on those streets in town, you feel a heaviness. Something that cannot be explained. So many thousands of souls, lost.
Agreed. We feel it Every time. Many hundreds never found or recovered. The whole town is a memorial
Agreed. Gettysburg is hallowed ground.
Love that place.
was the same when i went to the somme, vimy ridge, etc back in the early 80's. To this day i can still feel the sense of despair that lingered in the air
@@shadygiz I hope that one day I can be there myself. France is a bucket list travel country for me. Would love to
Gettysburg's battle footprint is so big! It will take all day to visit everything so you save us some trouble! Thank you sir!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
I enjoy walks in cemeteries! Fantastic episode. I read that not only was Elizabeth pregnant, but also caring for her ailing father. Thank you for bringing to light what the town folk and local farmers dealt with during the battle and months afterward. There were no programs offered to help rebuild or replace lost crops or livestock. So intriguing to read about and immerse ones thoughts to learn more. Thank you young man. Enjoying this so very much! Blessings to you and your family.
Pretty amazing woman. Thanks for the kind words 🙂
Elizabeth is my new hero! You never really think about all the damage that wars cause, not to just people. Great video, thnx ☺️
Astonishing woman. R.I.P. Elizabeth.
Pretty crazy story.
One of my favorite channels right now
Awesome! Thanks 🙏🏼
Elizabeth must have been an amazing and compassionate person. So awesome to see that monument of her. 👍😄
Agreed
As I said before JD, you've really stepped it up a notch and out did yourself with this series. You're a phenomenal teacher and should be extremely proud of this work. Awesome job buddy.
I remember the cemeteries in Iraq (2003) were not sacred ground, and some were destroyed due to fighting. Along with hospitals and other places that were supposed to be protected- our enemy did not abide by the ROE we were "supposed" to follow. This reminded me of that. But there will never be monuments put up over there to honor both sides.
Thanks for the perspective and kind words.
I unbelievable about Elizabeth, not many women would have met that challenge. May she rest in peace.
Pretty amazing woman.
Not many men either.
Love that you tell these little bits of history. That otherwise would not learn in a classroom. American school children should watch your videos. They will learn a lot and understand the civil war. I’m still learning from you and I have been to Gettysburg. I definitely going to go back.
Thanks! That’s why I created this channel to begin with. Hopefully people are sharing these videos with some of the younger people that they know.
First, Ive Heard Of These Very Interesting, and Sad stories, and Ive Been In Gettysburg, Several Times..Great Work..
🙏🏼
Wow JD. God bless that lady who buried the dead. She is just one of many women and men who were civilians who were heroic. People can do amazing things that they never thought they could.
Thanks, JD, for your emphasis on the trials and tribulations of local folks. Ordinary people under extraordinary circumstances.
Absolutely.
I’ll bet Ken Burns watches your videos. They are that good!!!!!!
Ha! That would be cool, for sure. Maybe shoot him an email and tell him that we need to do a collaboration (lol)
You make such excellent videos. I love to watch them.
In the many times I’ve been to Gettysburg, I’ve never walked through the city cemetery and tried finding these! Thanks for showing us that there was nothing left untouched by this battle!
