Always enjoy monuments Monday.

Tim another great Monuments Monday. You covered a lot of ground. Thank you for your dedication to this project. I have enjoyed your expertise. Thank you. ❤️💯👊👍

I'll fight anybody who says that flank markers shouldn't be counted as markers, monuments and tablets. Love these videos and thanks for the shoutout.

I agree with you @thehistoryunderground and I think the veterans of the 5th New Hampshire would have also agreed with you.

Another great video. Learning so much from these Monuments Mondays videos. Thanks, Tim, and keep 'em coming.

Thank Tim! As always very interesting and informative! Hopefully I get to meet you next time I visit.

Fantastic as always!

I'm not sure that I have seen the Humiston monument, but no surprises besides that. And, of course, lots of good background information. I'm sure Tim has a few surprises up his sleeve in the coming weeks. Good start!

Great video as always. I look forward to Monument Mondays. Coster Avenue is such a unique place on the battlefield because not only can you tell the story of the battle, but also the importance of battlefield preservation and also memory.

Glenn and I did a tour with Mark Dunkleman! It was amazing!

Excellent discussion of the borough monuments! I visited the mural and monuments at Coster Ave this past January after watching the earlier video referred to here. The video and mural are both worth your time. But, because it’s in a neighborhood there is very limited on street parking.

Hi Tim, I met you one time at the Farnsworth house I got up. I shook your hand. Talk to you for a little while but the one thing I didn’t do was ask you for your autograph so I’m hoping sometime I meet you again and this time I’ll be prepared and get your autograph, if you don’t mind

My guess for why the right flank marker for Heckman's battery was removed is because it was in the way of Carlisle St. when it was widened and paved.

I'm guessing that there is no right flank marker for the 134th NY because it would have had to been located on private property?

@timothysmith7742

There are plenty of flank markers that were placed on private property. As a matter of fact Heckman's battery monument is on Private property, the Gettysburg College.

How come there are two spaces that mark the place of Homesten’s death?

@@garys.4789 Not sure what you are referring to, but it could be the Wayside exhibit in front of the Plank Garage on York Street and Stratton Street. Basically, it is describing the site of the monument we are talking about. It is only a block or so away. I should mention that in the old Charley Weaver Museum, there was an audio about the story that described Humiston as falling in front of that house on Baltimore Street.

Is that a Texas flag that is depicted incorrectly? What is the story behind that inaccuracy?

Not sure what you mean! There were no Texas troops in this fighting! Only Louisiana and North Carolina. Texans were in Longstreets corps which of course had not arrived yet?
