Скачать или смотреть Gettysburg's Rock Creek with Tim Smith

Located along the eastern boundary of the Gettysburg National Military Park, Rock Creek was a formidable barrier to the Southern advance on Culp’s Hill during the second and third day of the battle. Much deeper due to several dams, it was once a popular swimming destination and local picnic area. But with virtually no access, and very little interpretation, the role that the creek played in the fighting and in the early history of our community is often overlooked by modern visitors. Join historian Timothy H. Smith as he highlights early views of the creek and discusses the story of Rock Creek in this special program.

This program was originally recorded on March 1, 2025 at the Adams County Historical Society.
