Call to Arms!
Emergency Militia in Pennsylvania
During the Gettysburg Campaign

May 15, 2012 through May 1, 2013

These citizen soldiers were the first forces to defend Pennsylvania from the Confederate invasion in June of 1863 and were instrumental in preventing the rebels from crossing the Susquehanna River at Wrightsville, thus saving Harrisburg from capture.

The exhibit will feature photographs, objects, and maps relating to the emergency forces.
