The Confederate March to Gettysburg and the Cashtown Inn: Gettysburg 158 Live!

Situated on the route of the Confederate advance and retreat, Cashtown, Pennsylvania, has long been known to Gettysburg aficionados, but gained substantial fame for its appearance in the movie, Gettysburg. Our own Kris White breaks it all down.
This video is part of our battlefield tour series commemorating the 158th Anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg. You can view the entirety of the playlist here: • 158th Anniversary of G...

Pinning this response from other comments since Kris's pronunciation of Gettysburg has become such a debate! It's not worth getting all worked up over, we promise! While "Gettys-burg" has become the more popular pronunciation, the town was named after Samuel Gettys, pronounced "Gettis." Thus, some historians and locals prefer the "Gettis-burg" pronunciation.

[@richtomlinson7090]

Thanks, I heard the difference in pronunciation and wondered.

In July of 2008, a good friend and I went to Gettysburg to participate in the 145th anniversary reenactment. Afterward we toured the battlefield, in particular those parts were our ancestors in the 52nd North Carolina fought. Upon leaving, we went to Cashtown and not only got to see the inn, we ate dinner there. The perfect way to say goodbye to Gettysburg.

I have shuddered to think of how horrible that retreat from Gettysburg just had to be for the Confederates. Thousands of terribly wounded men in pouring down rain, without any pain relief medications being jostled about in rudimentary wagons on those terrible roads, shrieking and crying out in their agony, some begging for a comrade to mercifully put them out of their misery with a quick bullet. I have been overwhelmed sometimes thinking about the post traumatic stress and emotional trauma that the Civil War generation of veterans just had to suffer through for the rest of their lives.

The old story - war is the product of stupidity, greed, and hate. It seems we’ll never learn

[@darensmith5270]

Well if the Founding Father's would have listened to PROGRESSIVE, Thomas Paine ( Common Sense & The Rights if Man) , the Civil War could have been avoided! Paine wanted to free the slaves and give women the right to vote in the 1700's. Then over 750,000 soldiers would not have perished in 4 years! But then Americans have to do everything the gard way! PROGRESSIVES are rarely acknowledged in the USA . Follow the $$$$$! And to quote Republican President and General Dwight David Eisenhower/ Commander of the D-Day Invasion June 6,1944" Beware the military industrial complex!" Should have listened to General Ike! Eisenhower had a home right next to the Gettysburg battlefield ! Another good place to visit!

[@celticman1909]

@@darensmith5270 Yes, people won't act on intellectual analysis of almost certain conclusions of events and consequences of lessons that history teaches from the past. I and Obama are about the same age. We grew up in a society that was administrated by veterans of the second world war. Our generation was keen to study the historical record of how the war occurred, it's causes and consequences. The consequences of appeasement fiqured largely in the equation of how the war developed. Not a fan of war. I want that understood, it's the worst thing people do, but in some cases we should learn that it is necessary. What I am getting at is that we seem to go to war when we shouldn't and fail to go when we should. Vietnam, Iraq, and spending 20yrs occupying Afghanistan are examples of that but when Putin invaded Crimea and started his underhanded war against Ukraine in the Don bass regions we should have stopped him by any means necessary. As Chamberlain appeased Hitler. Hitler only grew bolder and I am afraid that Putin will cost us a compounded rate of intrest payable only in blood and strife in the future. Obama probably knew this at the time but also knew the he could not convince the Country and our Allies solely on the lesson of Hitler and Chamberlain. So, we shall see. I hope I am wrong, but human nature and history suggest other wise.

[@lavenderrosehealingmassage7232]

I've stayed at the Cashtown Inn a few times. I love the history of the place and according to Jack, the owner, it is haunted. I got some interesting sounds overnight while staying there. I have a youtube video of the recording I made if anyone is interested. Lots of bumps and bangs and me and my dad were the only guests staying there at the time. Some sounds are hard to explain. You hear what sounds like a cork being popped out of a wine bottle very near my recorder which was on the table near the little refrigerator, the place where someone would open a bottle, and strange clicking within the room. There is even a gunshot sound towards the morning as the sun is coming up. Take it for what you will. If you like Civil War history, this is a great place to stay as you visit Gettysburg.

[@stevefowler2112]

The whole problem with the South's position at Gettysburg was that Lee made a grand sweep of his army and he expected the union army to be sent piece meal after him where his Calvary would ride around them and harass their stores as usual and the smaller units could be eliminated one at a time. But the Union army got dispatched in force and made Jeb Stuarts ride around them almost impossible and took the south's Calvary out of the strategic game plan which allowed the union to do what all battle field commanders want to do...get there the soonest, with the mostest. Once it became a set piece battle the unions far superior numbers and equipment (artillery) made the outcome almost a fait accompli. The South's chances of winning the war on the field were never going to happen as they just had no manufacturing and limited population. There only chance was for a political settlement. Lee knew this and thus this campaign was a strategic roll of the dice to try and faint to Washington in an attempt to get the north to ask for terms

Not sure now but I think it was in Freeman’s Lee’s Lieutenants that I read where the invasion Lee decided on in 1863 was first proposed by Stonewall Jackson in 1862. The idea to take Harrisburg which would have been a grievous blow to northern train traffic.

[@rexfelton2312]

Jackson wanted to head North to Harrisburg with his Army of the Valley with only 18,000 effective available to go North with. But there was a Union Army attacking way down in the Southern Shenandoah Valley coming from Ohio through what later became Charleston West Virginia. Lee felt that had to be stopped and was a much more important item at the time. So in the 3rd or 4th skirmish or battle Stonewall Jackson completed his infamous Shenandoah Valley Campaign of 1862. Also it became apparent that the Union was loading large amounts of troops onto Naval transports and taking them to Fotress Monroe, so McClellan had his mind on capturing Richmond and the worst thing that could happen was for Jackson to be in Scranton, Pennsylvania with Lee needing him to form the largest Army that Confederacy ever had and the Invasion was pretty damned large as well.

[@johncofer6458]

Well thanks for solving a small mystery for me. When I would watch the movie Gettysburg it always bugged me when I saw that scene where Lee is going through Cashtown, and he stops to chat from asride his horse with a guy in a red shirt who apparently gives him assistance by answering his question. I thought if that's a local Pennsylvanian, doesn't he realize he's giving aid and comfort to the enemy? I was not aware that this scene portrayed a historic event where General Lee was talking to A.P. Hill.

[@historyandhorseplaying7374]

True, but in that part of Southern PA there were some pro-Confederates, because a lot of the economy of their area depended on trade with the South.

[@rebelsoul5980]

Many northerners fought for the Confederacy! The civil war was not as black and white as the public indoctrination system's portray it as! It was ideologically fought over the illegal and treasonous implementation of a Federal Nationalized Democracy. The Union in 1776 was established as a constitutional Confederate Republic built on the principles of self governing Nation State's free from Federal tyrrany! Geographically it was fought over westward expansion by the North. Not only did the Union want to conquer Confederate Territory, but also Native American territories! The last Confederate General to surrender was a Native American who lead the Cherokee territory into battle. The father's of the Confederacy believed in private property right's and would have never stolen native land like the Union has done! 20,000 black men also fought willingly for the Confederacy! Around 15,000 Hispanic men fought for the Confederacy!

[@celticman1909]

Indeed, Davis was perplexed over the situation at Vicksburg. Vicksburg had been described as the linchpin of the Confederacy over the Mississippi River, it's defense was critical. Davis had discussed the need to transfer troops to Vicksburg and the Western theater, to parry Grant's thrusts and lift his siege of Vicksburg with Lee. Lee counsels Davis not to take troop strength from him in the East in an attempt to shore up the situation on the Mississippi, but rather to approve his audacious plan for an invasion of Pennsylvania. This campaign will have the quicker result for Vicksburg as the Federals will be compelled to redeploy East, and thus, relieve the pressure on Vicksburg indirectly, sooner than Lee's troops could travel there and make their weight felt. Davis agrees and decides to cast the dice on Lee's plan. As we now know, and as Davis perhaps should have known, the Federal's had enough strength to cover both regions adequately, and Lee's Pennsylvania incursion did not have the desired effect as Vicksburg surrendered about the same time as the Battle of Gettysburg. In a short time, Longstreet's Corps would be fighting in the Trans-Mississippi. Looking back on it, with the benefit of hind sight, one can say that the Confederacy should have surrendered in July 1863. With the loss of Vicksburg in the West and Gettysburg in the East it was definitely a lost cause.

But politically, even after mid-'63, Lincoln believed himself in trouble all through 1864 (with massive casualty rolls pouring in from heavy - handed offensives by Sherman into Georgia from Tennessee and by Grant into Virginia) until Atlanta fell.

@@teller1290 Resouces X Will = Victory. Such is the basic equation of making war. If either values drop to Zero ( or near zero) defeat occurs. The North had the vastly superior resources, The South was trying to exhibit the superior will, ( or commitment to the struggle .) Militarily the South's chances from the outset were slim to none. The best element they had was for the political situation in the North to sour with the people demanding an end to the blood and suffering. So yes, the political cards were still in play as you say. But the North did not lose the will to fight and if that was a known quantity than defeat for the Confederacy was certain, having the inferior resources, and not destroying the North's will to continue.
