"Battle for the Fairfield Road?"

As told by Josiah Kepner, My cousin David Stoops was inducted into Company G of the 209th Pa Volunteers in Adams County to the Civil War about a year after the battle of Gettysburg, Josiah's stories will focus around the local historical record. I hope you enjoy them. They may be a bit slow coming at first as I research and develop them. Thanks for sharing your patience with me! Please......Stay Tuned

Howdy Folks I’m Josiah Kepner

I grow'd up not a fer piece from here in the mountains near Fairfield when the battle of Gettysburg was happen'n! It was a scary time with all the shoot'n and the talk we heard about the loot'n and all that was happen'n. There was soldiers a rid'n around everywhere…. both Johnny rebs and Billy yanks a com'n and goin' in all directions, all the folks was try'n to find places up in the mountains to hide the cows pigs and chickens sos the soldiers would n't take 'em an slaughter 'em for food.

My cousin David Stoops and me was a doing just that taken their ol' milk cow Bessie up in the woods on Mary's Hill to hide her when we heard what we thought was a thundergust off in the distance but it was louder an any we heard afore it seemed to be going on for a long time .....{It was as we heard later the thundergust noise was all the cannons shoot'n at what they called Pickett's Charge!!} which took place at the same time as the fight we saw}……just about the same time me an David heard some gunshots an they was a bunch closer than the other thunder'n noise, we wanted to know what was happen'n so we hid ol' Bessie out in a thicket …….tied her up and snuck toward the edge of Mary's Hill and there it was……. we was a see'n the elephant right before our eyes......
