Gettysburg National Cemetery | Tim Smith & Roy Frampton | Ask A Gettysburg Guide #15- Classic Rewind Jan 20, 2025

Show notes

JOIN US FOR TACOS AND TRIVIA at the Seminary! February 15, 2025 https://www.seminaryridgemuseum.org/events/tacos-and-trivia-0215

This week's classic AG episode is from the bleak restriction-laden year of 2020. Bob Steenstra, Tim Smith, Roy Frampton and Matt braved the chilly air and sat atop East Cemetery Hill near that tree in front of Rickett's Battery and behind the Howard statue to record an show about Gettysburg National Cemetery. Perhaps the piece of information that blew listeners' minds at the time was the melody that the poem "The Bivouac of the Dead" fits percfectly with.

ORIGNAL SHOW NOTES:

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.

Ask A Gettysburg Guide #4 with Tim Smith- AG Classics Jan 01, 2025

Show notes

ORIGINAL AIRDATE December 23, 2019

This is the continuation of Ask A Gettysburg Guide #3 with Tim Smith. Apparently, back then it didn't occur to me to make a long episode and instead I split it in two. Or maybe there was another reason that I've forgotten. Either way, enjoy.

There original shownotes:

Merry Christmas! It's time for the final Ask A Gettysburg Guide of 2019. Bob Steenstra and Tim Smith continue with the questions that we couldn't fit into the previous Ask A Gettysburg Guide. Instagrammers who answered the call for questions in this episode are: @Soldier_Up_ @SJcolmus @Mrsmaestas2 @civil_war_Nerd @Cwhitt @Tylerfashistory

Ask A Gettysburg Guide #3 with Tim Smith- AG CLASSIC REWIND Jan 01, 2025

Show notes

As we take a backward glance at our extensive (dad)body of work for the sake of our new listeners who might not go all the way back to the beginning and work their way forward, we chose this episode to be our first. Back in the old days, when Ask A Gettysburg Guide began, we hadn't, yet, fleshed-out the format of the show. Back then, it was a shotgun-approach: listeners sent in questions and I asked the guides for the answers. LBG Bob Steenstra was my cohost and would be until The Rona hit. Tim Smith was a frequent guest and was the first guide to come on the show as a guest. This is Episode 3, one of a two parter. This show "aired" on December 23, 2019. Here are the original shownotes:

It's time for another Ask A Gettysburg Guide! This time we received so many questions that we had to make this into two episodes. That means next week there will be another just in time for Christmas!

In this episode we take questions from Instagrammers: The Great Tronetti @HistorywithBrad @GrantHarvey15 @NCHistoryNerd @CWhitt @Veronica Brestensky @Civil_War_Footsteps @Soldier_up_ @SJcolums @Mrsmeastas2
