- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 มิ.ย. 2023
- When walking the ground at Gettysburg, it's easy to become disconnected to the fact that the people who fought there had families and goals and their own unique personalities. Ronn Palm's Museum of Civil War Images is doing much to connect with the human side of this struggle through his amazing collection of Civil War photos. Here's you can take the names that you've read about or have seen on the monuments and put a face to them for an added layer of understanding of The Battle of Gettysburg.

My Great Grandfather was a Confederate soldier....God Bless you for bringing history to life...Vietnam Vet 1968 - 69...
As long as there's people like Ron, Eric and yourself. The history will always be remembered.
👊🏻
Sadly too many people want to erase history!
It’s one thing to see their names on a monument or read about them in a book. But when you see their faces in a photo that makes them real and you realize that some of those faces gave up their lives fighting for what they believed in.
What an amazing Museum. This one really is a gem. ♥️👍
Wow, how neat is all of that! It is really cool to see that there are faces and names to go with the soldiers that fight during the war! It is sure great what you do for us, the artifacts, the pictures, all of the history that you relate to us and show us his bar none the coolest thing ever and we all really appreciate it. Keep it up and there’s always you do a great job with all your videos and documentaries thank you.
Many gave up their lives and technically had no choice. People today don’t understand how people thought about their states of origin back then. Not to mention that the average Joe in the south did not really even have much of a choice after the war started if they were of fighting age back then. I always remember the story of two German immigrants that migrated separately one to NY the other to Georgia and ended up on opposite sides fighting against each other! My great Grandfather fought & died in the Indiana infantry, but I have no illusions if he lived or grew up in the south when the war broke out, he would have probably been fighting on the opposite side.
I hope someone will maintain this amazing place after Ron passes on. We can’t lose this incredible piece of our history.
Your Gettysburg work is always top notch. Thanks for giving a voice to those who cant speak, and eyes to those who can't make it to some of these places. 🙏🏿🙏🏿
The time and effort it must have taken to source all of those photos and artifacts, just extraordinary.👍
Now we have a Trifecta for History. JD, Erik and now Ronn! Awesome Job Gentlemen! Great presentation JD, love all the editing, storyline and music you perfectly use for the videos! Great Job and thank you for keeping History alive !!!!
I was there for the 150th anniversary. Wow is all I can say. My mind was ready to explode from everything I was seeing and learning. To read about the Civil War is one thing. To actually go and experience it.. That is something way cooler.
You need to do that trip on hallucinagenics and your mind WILL explode my friend! 🍄
My family and I have been there 4 times. It’s our favorite place.my grandchildren love going. Ages 21,19,17,
This is such an outstanding episode. You guys rock. What a fantastic way for the American public and Patriots to come and connect with the faces that changed our country. Just incredible. You guys should all get Freedom Awards.
Amen!
Outstanding episode JD. Again a big shoutout to Erik and especially Ron Palm for their contributions to this episode.
Wow...Thank you, Mr Palm, for the time and effort you've put into collecting and organizing those historical gems! And thanks, JD, for highlighting this very cool place!
I hope there is someone that Mr Palm can pass on his knowledge to so that his collection can be enjoyed far into the future.
Interesting video of those who served. Thankful for Ron's dedication to preserving their information for the heritage of their relatives.
This is just incredible! When you have a passion for our history and share it with others we will NEVER FORGET! Thank you all for the time you take to share our history so we learn from our mistakes and vow not to repeat them 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
the faces and information broke my heart .thank you all for your service and giving your lives for our country ❤
Greetings from Oxford UK.....What an amazing collection.....I find it hard to believe that it would b possible to build-up a collection like this....thanks for preserving so many memories
Greetings from London, yes it is an amazing collection. It seems so much more personal and intimate than the Imperial War Museum & The National Army Museum.
This is an awesome series that should be shown in schools! History like this is just as important as the battles and generals.
As a Canadian, I have always been fascinated about the American Civil War.
Sir, I thoroughly enjoy the work and heart that you put into your historical story telling. The way you bring the story down to the location and person with artifacts and putting little puzzling details together in such a way that makes me want to learn more.
Thank you for all that you do.
Actually the American Civil War was the bloodiest war the USA has ever fought! Over 750,000 soldiers died in that war/ combined total of both North& South! MARYLANDER here/ YANKEE! By the way our beautiful state flag reflects the divisions in Maryland .The black and gold represents the Calvert Family / UNION , the Red& White cross represents the Crossland Family/ CONFEDERATE. The flag was designed to bring both sides together after the Civil War! My mother's family came to the Maryland colony in 1643! Maryland was started by Catholics who fled England in the 1600's. Maryland became a colony in 1634! St. Mary's County! 🤔🤗🇩🇪🇨🇭🇺🇲💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Mom's Swiss family came to the USA in 1812! They married into the Mattingly Family! The Mattingly Family came from England in 1643!
You have a very grounded family to have maintained such clarity. That is commendable.
JD, you look like a kid in a candy shop ❤️ I love your heartfelt enthusiasm. Please congratulate Mr. Palm on his beautiful collection. Wonderful episode. Thank you!
J.D.: Seeing the rows upon rows of photos gave me the same revered solemness when I first glimpsed Arlington Cemetery with Mom and Dad. Hope the American Government or someone protects Ronn’s priceless legacy and keep it open indefinitely for future generations to experience.

Great episode, Ronn's museum is exceptional what a Treasure.
Very spectacular informative program, definitely adding Ron Palms Civil War Image museum to the list of to do's and must see! Great show JD with an excellent introductory piece from Erik.
Awesome to see the bucktails represented! I used to re-enact with them when I was in high school!
That is totally awesome. You would have to spend a week there and still not see everything. That's a must see place. Thank you for sharing
Impossible not to get goosebumps seeing these photos and artifacts. These men gave so much. Hoping to heaven that we aren't breaking it apart again.
Old white chick from Alabama who is grateful every day for the fact that our Union was saved.
We're all better than the dreadful strife that's happening in our beautiful country.
Take care, dear ones.
Rest in peace to the soldiers who gave their all. 💙🙏🇺🇸
What an amazing collection!
Oh how we wish we could not only see their images but hear their voices! What priceless treasures this museum contains! It is nice to put faces to names. Thank you, JD.
That would be amazing.
This episode of History Underground was especially captivating. The personal stories you weave within your presentations on historical subjects is beyond comparison JD. You're the best of the best and I can't wait for the next installment so I can discover something new and exciting.
Thanks!
Amazing Museums and so close together and and l am amazed they are not full of people as someone like me from Australia would love to visit someday.
WOW! That was extraordinary. What a museum! All my respect to Mr. Palm for his incredible commitment to the history of the Civil War, and particularly for the 'battle' that ultimately defined this great tragic conflict, and a nation.
PS- You guys do a wonderful job in all your episodes. Thank-a-million.
👊🏻
Thank you J. D. And Eric for a great video. I learn so much from the videos. You should teach history.
I believe that J.D. does , and that he began this work intending to share with his students.
Thank you for sharing this Museum.And was a outstanding video placing photos with the soldiers at Gettysburg. Thank you JD for sharing this! 💯👊👍
Charles Fred Taylor looks awfully young to be a colonel. Thank you for your service colonel. 🇺🇸
Promotions happen quickly in wartime. Future lieutenant general Arthur MacArthur, Jr. was a lieutenant colonel at 19. More famously, Armstrong Custer was promoted from captain to brigadier general at 23.
@@roberthudson1959 amazing
I thought the same thing, he looks like a kid! Very young looking
I'd love to see these images printed in book form.
Seeing the Faces with the Names take things to another level. Much in keeping with your presentations in the Podcasts. Thanks.
JD, I really enjoyed watching this video. Amazing history. I wish the time was longer.💪🏻
Seeing Gettysburg has always been on my bucket list.
Visited this museum today. If you are in the area, you have to go see it. Ronn is such a wonderful man to talk with. He is sharp as a tack, and willing to answer any of your questions. He actually had a photo of a deceased family member from prior to the war.
I finally made it to visit Ronn Palm’s museum. I live about 3 miles from where Col. Charles Frederick Taylor of the Bucktails grew up. His grave is located in the Longwood Cemetery nearby. I was able to have a nice discussion with Ronn about the Bucktails. Thanks so much for sharing this unique museum with all of us.
Just unbelievable! Thank you so much for your work, simply amazing…….
👊🏻
Thank you for a Very Interesting Episode! Those pictures just bring tears to my eyes. What a moving tribute to all those Brave men that fought here. I Love your Gettysburg Videos, they are all fatastic , Thank you for taking the time to make these and share them with us JD.
Awesome museum. We went to Gettysburg last summer. I’m completely bummed out that I missed this museum now. We did and seen a lot but missed this one somehow. Seeing all those images is truly mind blowing. I’ve always been Interested in all American history, but the civil war the most! I absolutely hate that many in this generation either no longer know, show no interest or have a distorted or simplified view of history in general.
I've been to Gettysburg twice when I was young..and spent alot of that time at the battlefields with my family..and didnt realize the museums their in town..My return visit I will surely visit those..its been 52 years since I was their..look forward to it.
Thank you guys.👍✌👍✌🇺🇸
I love that Ron has all these pictures. It’s so interesting and it literally brings history come to life. I’ve said it before but this channel is great and I’ve learned so much. Thank you SO much!
Your channel overwhelms me every time I watch it! Every episode teaches me something new! Wig History underground! 👏🏻👍🏻😊
I think every state needs a museum like this one
👍🏻
Absolutely fantastic video! Thank you for this and keep them coming!!
Great video JD. Interesting as always. Thanks for all you do. 👍👍👍👍👍
Fascinating. I'm not American but find this period of North American history so interesting. These guys are so knowledgable, dedicated, passionate and good storytellers. This episode really brings a human and actually quite sad element behind the names. Of course all war is sad but civil wars in general where it's neighbour vs neighbour, friend vs friend, brother vs brother, is a concept i'm trying to study more.
Incredible episode. Thank you!
Born and raised in Tioga County Pa. I grew up hearing about the Bucktails. Thank you for this J. D. Erik and Ron
I worked at the British embassy in Washington DC for a Yr visited Gettysburg plus many other battlefields, wish I knew back then about the Gettysburg museums 👌
I recently found an image there of my GGG Grandfather, served in the 53rd Pennsylvania. He was captured in June 1864 near Petersburg and spent 8 months (and survived) at Andersonville Prison. Awesome collection!
Wow. Been to gettysburg literally 30 times or more and live less than an hour away and never knew this images museum was there. I will be chekcikg that out
Absolutely beautiful museum!! 😳
Thank you for not letting the Civil War be forgotten, and the incredibly brave men who fought.
You should consider contacting public school systems, or better yet, contact the Department of Education in D.C., to make your docs in Civil War history mandatory in the public schools system.
God bless...
As many times as I've been to Gettysburg I've never stopped in there. Now I know what to do on my next trip!
Unbelievable!!!! Just an absolutely amazing episode, per usual, and very much appreciated taking us along to that phenomenal museum!!! Mind blowing the history and artifacts that are in that building.
Incredible content! Have a great 160th! You are the best JD!
It makes me very humble. Respect. I will be visiting Gettysburg for sure!
I definitely added another place to my bucket list. Amazing place
WOW, AMAZING! I must see these museums! Kind Thanks for taking us here in this fantastic photographic historical library! I have a number of Civil War images that I’ll take there and one of my GGGrandfather in his late years. He volunteered for three terms in the Calvary. My Grandfather was supposed to inherited his sword, papers and metals but unfortunately someone else secretly got to them first. He told my Grandfather that he’d run through fire to hand Gen. Grant his sword he’d dropped from his horse and received a metal for his act. I also have an 1862 draft notice from Lebanon County Pa. Thanks Again So Much! DaveyJO in Lancaster Co. Pa.
Your passion for showing us your finds is infectious!. Thank you sir.
Thank you kindly
Another outstanding episode. I especially like the somber music you chose to accompany this video. Very appropriate. Thank you so much. I always wanted to visit Gettysburg, but unfortunately, illness prevents me. Being able to "be there" through your videos means a lot to me, so thank you again.
OMG…I can’t believe I missed this museum and l have been there several times with my son. Kicking myself, my great great grandfather was in the PA Calvary in Gettysburg and I was so happy to find his name.
Thanks for this video. I was not aware of this museum. Outstanding collection
An addition to my bucket list. Can't miss this if it's a few doors down from Erick's museum.
Shouldn't that be your Bucktail list? 😉
@@melanielawler3344 😆😆😆
Another museum to visit on my next day off!
Fantastic video and amazing that the museum has so many photos. Ive studied Civil War in books with photos of the Soldiers but that place really brings it to home .
Thank you so much! This was beyond amazing and so fabulous that all these pictures and artifacts have been preserved.
Astonishes me how many of these images have names attached to them. Such an amazing collection.
Pretty wild.
It would be cool if you’d do a video on the events that happened in Savannah,Ga during the American Civil War. Love your Channel Man
👍🏻
Wow! When I make my trip to Gettysburg I now know where to spend another day! Thank you.
I've learned more about the Civil War from here, than HS, the military and College.
Keep up the great work man, really enjoy everything.
🇺🇸SF
it’s so cool but also kind of haunting as well to see the photos of the men and some of the artifacts that they had one them when they died or were wounded during the Battle of Gettysburg
This guy needs a show on history Channel perfect voice for it
Yeah, Ron’s a cool guy. I was thoroughly impressed with his museum.
@@TheHistoryUnderground you both would be perfect in any field involving history and or anything to do with civil war thoroughly enjoy all of the content very relaxing and informative
Such an amazing video!!! To put faces and names and artifacts to such an important time in history makes it so personal.
I agree that this should be taught in schools, a very important piece in our history.
Thank you for such wonderful videos and sharing your knowledge.
What I like best about small OLD museum, they're cozy, they're personal and I enjoy the older displays where the little information card is handwritten in cursive with a real ink pen and not a ballpoint pen. Thanks to JD, Erik and Ronn Palm for this fine watch on American History.
I know I say this every time you introduce me to another interesting side note to Gettysburg, but, I have got to get back up there and take in some of these things I missed last time.
Been to Gettysburg twice and have not been to either of those museum's. Will make an effort to definitely visit them when I go back. Thanks for highlighting them.
Wow, wow, wow thank you Mr Palm!! Awesome museum. I live in the Pacific Northwest and have never been on the east coast. I hate to admit that being 60 years old but it is what it is. But I am adding this to my bucket list visiting these two museums. This is a great channel to learn from I don't watch it often but I am subscriber and everytime I watch your videos I am always impressed. I need to watch these more often and stop falling behind to see these videos. Keep'em coming. Thank you!! ❤
The photos and the artifacts really bring home the tragedy and all the loss... And what a monumental task to collect and identify all these!
When in Gettysburg my first stop is the Daniel’s brigade marker in back of the Eternal Light Peace Monument on Oak Hill. My ancestor was part of 2nd NC battalion assigned to Junius Daniel which was part of Rodes Division, Ewell’s Corps. Before leaving I walk from the NC monument on Seminary Ridge, across the open fields traveled during Picket’s Charge, cross Emmitsburg Road, up though the Angle, stopping at the 26NC monument!
I wish I had a history teacher like you
FASCINATING!! Thank you so much for posting this video.
WOW! This place looks crazy amazing! I have now added to my list of things to do next time I am in Gettysburg!
This was fantastic, unbelievable footage , thank you sir !!
🙏🏼
I’m Australian, but I’m obsessed with the civil war, these videos are absolutely fascinating 👍😊
Thanks be to those who work hard to put names to faces and faces to names and for trying to tell the stories of these individuals as best they can. We need to be reminded that these individuals are more than just statistics. They were real people with real lives who made real sacrifices, and their stories deserve to be told. God bless the men on both sides, be they Confederates or Yankees, they were all Americans.
Going to Gettysburg for almost 10 years I past this museum all the time, this year I gotta check it out.
Amazing JD!!! Thank you so much!🇺🇸
What a cool place. No better way to bring it home then to see the faces of hundreds of these soldiers. I got to get out to PA.
I absolutely love this channel.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Great little museum. Amazing at all the images and artifacts in that place. Love little musems like that 👍
My 2X Great Grandfather fought at Gettysburg as well as Bull Run with the Ohio Lt. Artillery. He survived, fortunately, and went on to become a country doctor. He died in 1942 or 1843 at the age of 96. One of the last surviving and oldest Civil War veterans in Iowa ( he moved there after the war).
Loved this episode. The Civil War Images museum was not open when I went to Gettysburg last year. I was very happy to see JD do an episode on the museum. I was floored when he showed a picture of an " Unknown wounded officer" from my home town and state of " Holyoke, Ma. ". Keep up the good work JD. I tell people interested in history about your Channel all the time.
This is history at its best about the Civil War.🇺🇸
I Love this channel, every person has so much information it’s amazing‼️‼️ We can’t forget our History, or the History of the World. so Thank You for sharing it with us. ♥️⭐️💙
Thank you for this info and photos of the Civil War soldiers and other momemtos.
Wow Ty For This Video RIP All Men Who Fought at The Battle Of Gettysburg Ty
