[applause] good morning, all. Thank you for having me. You have heard about the big guns from wayne and jim. When i would like to speak about s first plan for victory at gettysburg, at least one part of it. And the fighting on july 3 in the morning there went on for seven straight hours, some of the longest sustained fighting at gettysburg and amost in the whole war, but relatively unvisited area of the field.

Within those counties, most of them are in amherst county, that is where the 150 cemeteries are that i visited and studied for this research. On the map in the lower righthand corner, dont worry there will not be a quiz but the numbers you are looking at seem to be the founding of these counties by european americans. I would also point out that if your interests are in native american Burial Grounds, those of course date back tens
