On this week's episode of Monuments Monday, ACHS Historian Tim Smith continues his quest to count all of the monuments, markers, and tablets in the Borough of Gettysburg. In this video, Tim discusses the Corporal Skelly G.A.R. Post Monument, which features the names of Adams County soldiers who died during the Civil War.
