Women of Gettysburg

COUNCIL BLOG - BETH LAWSON

After visiting Gettysburg for the first time and hearing about some of the remarkable stories about some of the women during the Civil War, I was fully invested in learning more and being able to share that information with others. These women were brave in their own ways even if they weren’t directly assisting in the battles themselves. Without them, many others would have suffered and their selflessness should be noted and others should learn from them.
