For the third consecutive year, Seminary Ridge Museum and Education Center (SRMEC) will host “24 Hours on the Ridge,” which has quickly become an ambitious, one-of-a-kind annual event in Gettysburg.

Edson S. Williams, wounded sometime on July 1 while fighting with the 2nd Wisconsin Infantry on McPherson Ridge, was likely one of the first soldiers treated at the Seminary hospital.
As Seminary Ridge Museum and Education Center (SRMEC) reopens for the year, one exhibit that illustrates visitors’ return is the final gallery, featuring an interactive talkback panel.
