Gettysburg Address 160th Anniversary on the Ridge – ZOOM History Happy Hour

Join us for our second ZOOM History Happy Hour of fall 2023, as we kick off our Gettysburg Address 160th Anniversary on the Ridge programming.

Codie Eash, SRMEC Director of Education and Museum Operations, will present “‘This Great Commonwealth’: Lincoln’s Journeys Through Pennsylvania Before and After Gettysburg.”

While Abraham Lincoln’s visit to Gettysburg in November 1863 was undoubtedly his most famous trek to Pennsylvania, it was by no means his only substantial time in the Keystone State. Codie will take viewers on a virtual journey into Lincoln’s trips through the Commonwealth, from his railway voyage as president-elect to the funeral train after his assassination.
