- The American Battlefield Trust travels to the Perryville Battlefield in Kentucky to check out some Civil War artifacts with actor Steve Zahn. He is joined by the Trust's Garry Adelman as Joan Lee House of the Perryville Battlefield State Historic Site displays items from Union Brigadier General William M. Kilgour and Union Lt. Colonel Squire Keith.
Giving a family heirloom to a museum is a wonderful way to preserve not only history but to preserve your family history in a greater context. Great stuff, ABT!
My great great grandfather Theodore C Altman, I still have his journal from this battle. He was 59th OVI in reserve at this battle but fought at Stones River.
Just an incredible story from our nations past. I’m also happy Mr. Zhan was on scene.
Great stuff. Enjoy these tidbits of history ! Keep em coming folks. Much appreciated
I love ur profile pic
Lucas Finsel The Schnitzel thanks he’s a great dog
Watching him get the 3 balls in his mouth is a real hoot
Pronouns are a good thing: "I," "It" etc.
How I wish there was somebody with your depth of knowledge here in NH!
Don't know if you have started a restore. But I use to work at a glass shop. When folks would bring in old old glass. My bosses eyes would light up. Find a old house from that time period. One that maybe you can score some of the old windows. Even a broke window. The frame is small. But adding the original period glass would really bring it out🖒🖒 time period glass had a wave, and lil blurry look to it. I've seen some old glass. We messed up😂😂 , and made one a mirror. We did antique mirror. We hung it in a bar downtown Nashville 😂 it had a "cat eye" in it super cool🖒
I believe Mr Zaharia is in the Amazon Prime series Mad Dogs! Excellent show!!! Watch it!
I served 11 years army, my family served at this battle, My great great great grandfather was at this battle, Theodore C. Altman, 59th OVI (Ohio voulnteer Infantry). He survived this battle. We still live here in Kentucky to this day. Every family member from the Altman side has served since the founding of this country. His great grandfather was with Trubys Rangers of Westmoreland County PA at the founding of Pittsburgh, our family fled Germany because we were German Hessians
I have my great great grandfathers belt buckle that he wore through the war.
Thanks for sharing American Battlefield Trust - I hope to be back to this site for a Reenactment and meet new friends on both sides. LT

WOW GREAT THANKS AGAIN .....
Well done!
Who would just give away a family air loom. I understand they want to preserve it, but still.
At least now they get to be seen by many people.
@@alonsocushing2398 I don't know maybe it's just me, but I would find parting with a historical artifact that's been in my family for generations very hard. I know they would take good care of it but still.
One reason could be that no one in the family would have been interested in saving the artifacts
Heirloom
@@timothygalvin3021 my bad, but you still knew what I ment
yes
I'm just a hour away and never been there
My ansector was there
How tall was the average soldier if 6'2 was a giant at that time?
5’7”
@@mikeseigel6566 Thank you. Had a feeling it would be around that
SigmaNuHE481 , I’m thinking between 5’6” - 5’8”? Robert E. Lee was considered a big guy at around 6’0”... but I read he had small feet
If ya look at all the uniforms preserved in museums... They all look like they belong to teenagers.. folks on average were shorter and of smaller stature back then. Lee, Forrest, were considered large men at the time..
