Ewell Attacks! The East Side of Gettysburg | Gettysburg 161

Following in the footsteps of Richard Ewell’s Confederate Corps at Gettysburg, approaching Culp's and Cemetery Hill on East Confederate Ave. We also get an awesome lesson from Tim Smith about the history of the Culp's family in Gettysburg. #gettysburgtour

This stream ended abruptly due to a connection loss in the field, but luckily we were able to get in a solid 30 minutes. Thanks!

Glad to hear that a potentially devasting loss was narrowly averted when a speeding minivan avoided taking out the Battlefields Trust's 'brain trust' in one fell swope.

Some people claim that Ewell's headquarters was located as marked, but they don't have a leg to stand on.

My great great grandfather was the 3rd Brigade 1st Division XII Corps commander Thomas Ruger.

Love these Battlefield Guides. They know their stuff. It doesn't get any better than Tim, Garry, Kris, and Sarah is holding her own for being a youngster of this excellent team. I hope to meet each one of them before I pass. And Garry, even Rudolph would need welding goggles ..hanging with you!

Love the channel, love what you all do, but the constant teasing of Tim Smith feels a little mean-spirited.

I've been all over the place at Gettysburg. A lot of historical controversy. Let's face it, the Trust short shifts my Southern relatives. I must commend the presenters on their enthusiasm .

From the UK… been to Gettysburg (nerd) six times. Fascinated by Culps Hill/East Cemetery Hill which had fighting on all three days. I walked Wainwright Ave and East Confederate Ave for the first time in October 2022, and it all made a lot of sense. Unfortunately I was the only person walking that start off line apart from a local. If you go, get out there, it’s worth an hour or so of your time 🎉

I love the mention of Dick Ewell's HQ location being very questionable. The simple fact is, in my experience of studying the matter, now a whole lot of anything is known regarding Ewell at Gettysburg, beyond the afternoon July 1st. There's bits and pieces, of course, and various actions by Ewell's troops on July 2nd late) and 3rd. But having read many books, watched many videos and having been to the Battlefield multiple times...I still invariably feel as if I know next to nothing about what Ewell himself was doing (Or exactly where) those two days. Then again...where was Hill most of the time?

AP Hill was sick and Corp command was still farly new to him. Imo AP Hill was better when he was hands-on (regiment-division). Corp commanders can't really be in with the troops to micromanage during the battles(especially when your Corp is spread out by miles.

Was there on one of my last visits (of probably close to two dozen) on the way to visit the East Cavalry Battlefield site of Day 3 which, up until then, I had never seen.
